Needed perspective on an important topic

Laura writes a very needed book in a candid, reverent way. I recommend every couple, especially LDS couples, read this book during their marriage, preferably at the outset.

Fills a Vacuum in Christian Sex Education

Loved this book! Great for single men and women, engaged couples, struggling married couple, and even happily married couples. This book fills a vacuum that is so desperately needed in the Christian community! After listening to this audio, I will be buying my own hard copy to have in my personal library

Every couple needs to read/listen to this book

This book should be required reading BEFORE marriage, and studied & applied throughout marriage. AWESOME! Thank you Laura!

The audio had a few hiccups throughout various chapters & that was unfortunate.

Can help improve or heal any marriage

This is a comprehensive book about marital and family relationships. It begins with very detailed and intimate information about women, their potential aversions to intimacy, and then discusses their physical and emotional needs. Then the author covers detailed information about the ecstasy and joy that is not only possible in marriage, but ordained of God. The author does all of the above through supporting quotes and references from not only herself, but from scriptures, spiritual leaders, and other experts who have studied and written on this subject.

This book has allowed me to see and appreciate my wife in ways that, sadly, have been lacking during the first 24 years of our marriage. We have been happily married during that time, but now I better understand how to love my wife in ways that are meaningful to her and the result is that we are both even more joyful than ever before. I know this book has resulted in us experiencing more celestial joy during our time together here on earth than we knew was possible.

I am grateful for the effort exerted to make this book available.

I also want to warn the listener that there are a couple of short sections of the audiobook where the recording is crackly and difficult to understand. However, this might be an aggregate of 2 or 3 minutes through the entire book.

loved the book.

loved the book but I did have some audio problems. but the book was very helpful.
