A reader from TX, United States

If any of you were like me who struggled with being a godly AND sensuous wife, then read this book! This book has set me free!! Intimacy with my husband has grown deeper as a result.

This book also gives biblical insight on God's wonderful gift of sex. The authors do a wonderful job of explaining Song of Solomon in the way it was intended. It's true that you can go to the Bible for information on anything!!

I belong to a Bible study that is reading this book. What an amazing time it has been to fully ingest God's word and understand WHY HE created sex in the first place. Our views of sex have gone from to procreate to do it whenever and where ever with whom ever you want. I think that many of us Americans can say we tried that and what did it get us but some mixed up emotions and feeling in some ways used up? Was it all it was cracked up to be? Perhaps it wasn't all it was cracked up to be because we weren't going about it in the way it was planned in the first place. I always thought Christians or God's way would be for prudes....hello? Have you read the Bible? I hadn't. I had no clue. I had no idea that if you follow God's plan for sex in marriage ONLY that it could be so much better. I had no idea that God commands us to have sex almost constantly! We are only to abstain to pray for a short time and then rejoin so as to not be tempted by Satan? Read the book. Be transformed. I think this book or any book on this topic should be a must for any young couple deciding to get married. Heck, it should be earlier introduced to kids that question sex, so that they truly understand what God had planned...and to abstain not to be a prude, but because the best is yet to come. Renew your mind. Change your attitude. Enjoy God's gifts. These are lessons I have had to learn. 

A reader from Santa Barbara, CA United States

This book is perfect for the new bride, but also for any woman who is married and seeking a better understanding and appreciation of sexuality. It talks about many issues that a woman needs to think about, but rarely feels free to address in Christian circles. Also, it is firmly grounded with references to Biblical texts. It helped me become excited again about God's good gift of sexuality.
