Story
For much of the 20th and 21st centuries, women’s sexuality was an uncharted territory in science, studied far less frequently - and far less seriously - than its male counterpart. That is, until Emily Nagoski’s Come As You Are, which used groundbreaking science and research to prove that the most important factor in creating and sustaining a sex life filled with confidence and joy is not what the parts are or how they’re organized but how you feel about them.

The older we get, the more we realize that relationships are not like the movies. For them to last a lifetime, both couples must put in the work. This ensures that both partners meet each other’s needs and wants. But how can you and your partner effectively nurture each other so you can both grow and thrive? It all starts with healthy communication. In order for your partner to fulfill your needs, you must learn to communicate and vice versa. Mindful communication sounds simply in theory, but is so hard to do in real life.

Publisher's Summary
"Love Worth Making is, hands down, the most practical, fun, and empowering book I've ever read on how to have a fabulous sex life in a commmitted relationship. It should be a must-read for every committed couple who wants to keep the spark alive for many years." (Christiane Northrup, MD, ob/gyn, and New York Times best-selling author of Goddesses Never Age: The Secret Prescription for Radiance, Vitality, and Wellbeing)
From one of the nation's top sex therapists comes a paradigm-shifting audiobook guide to thinking about and enjoying sex and intimacy in committed, long-term relationships.
These are astonishing times for sex. With a click of the mouse you can learn the names for sex acts your grandparents never knew existed. But are people any happier in bed? Probably not. Research from the Kinsey Institute suggests that 25 percent of American women in heterosexual relationships are markedly distressed about their sex lives.
There’s no shortage of audiobooks these days on sex technique. But that’s not what most people are interested in. What they really want is to have great sex in a committed relationship, in which case all the technical expertise in the world won’t help you very much. For that, you need to understand sexual feelings - how they operate, what rules they follow, and how they connect to the rest of who you are.
Dr. Stephen Snyder's unique approach has helped over 1,500 individuals and couples master the erotic challenges of long-term relationships. Integrating the latest research on human sexuality with compelling stories from his 30 years of experience working with individuals and couples, Love Worth Making will help people of all ages and backgrounds master their sexual feelings and enjoy them for life.

Game changer for my marriage
This book has been an invaluable resource for improving my marriage, and my sanity. It made the mystery of good sex not so mysterious and really changed my thinking in a lot of ways. So much more helpful than anything I've read online. “Life is difficult. Sex should be easy.” Think this might be my new motto. Highly recommend for all couples.

Try “Come As You Are” instead
I found this writer’s perspective a bit condescending, especially regarding his description of a young woman who was his client. Midway through listening to this book I found out about the book Come As You Are, which is the title I would recommend instead for women looking for a more confident and fulfilling sex life. I returned this audiobook.
