Publisher's summary
This story is Fifty Shades of Grey meets Bridget Jones’s Diary, with a healthy dose of 21st-century motherhood realness.
It follows the life and adventures of Amy Bowles, a relatably klutzy wife and working mother of three who gets an unexpected education in the swinging lifestyle, sparked by a modern series of events and fostered by a connection with an old friend from college.
After one more long day taking care of the kids and one more short night of unfulfilling sex with her devoted husband, Will, Amy indulges in a little too much wine and plops down in front the TV, searching for something to stream that will take the edge off of her frustrated desire. She lands on a swinging documentary and in her tipsy haze finds inspiration. Thrusting past her usually rule-following nature, Amy snaps some tawdry selfies and blasts her way onto a swinging hookup app on her phone. When she wakes up the next morning, Will has left early to go fishing, and she’s home alone with the kids. It’s not until she’s tended to her toddler and checked on the older two that her phone buzzes with notifications and Amy remembers her late-night foray into online swinging.
Amy now has a dilemma on her hands. Does she possibly meet with the beautiful and kind couple reaching out to her? Does she take the leap into a world she is tantalized by but knows little to nothing about, risking her ho-hum but content life? She wants to explore it with her husband; could she possibly use swinging as a means to bring the passion back to their sex life? If she does, could she possibly face her fears and insecurities? You’ll have to hear her story to find out.

A steamy read. For any spicy book lover.
If you’re a mom and ever struggled to feel like the you that existed before kids, this book is for you. A very relatable story with a dynamic main character, written the way a woman deserves to be written. It’s thought provoking, spicy, and leaves you wanting the next tale about Amy. Highly recommend this book.

Cute wife with perfect family justifies cheating
This is a lousy book on so many levels. Of course it is badly written, badly plotted, and structurally a mess. It's 8.5 hours of life I'll never get back - more, counting this review. First, it was classified as erotica. The first 7 hours contained nothing past the PG-13 stage. Then the female main character who gets painted with every narrative advantage, and I mean way over the top 'she's a saint' treatment, justifies going on a swingers app and meeting the perfect couple (of course) for a night of perfect sex (of course), a relationship which she intends to continue even though she hasn't told her perfect (of course) husband about this.
The hotness - all of which is contained in the last 1.5 hours - is written on the level of "It was a dark and stormy night," and to say it strains credulity understates the problem.
I know this is just a romance novel, not Great Art, but come on . . . at some point it is like playing tennis without a net.
Note to the author(s). Grow up. Embrace complexity.
