Product Description
From Amazon
Written by Dr. Love, a sex therapist with an aptronym if ever there was one, Hot Monogamy is no contradiction in terms. Comedian Dave Barry may joke about his guide to "marriage and/or sex," but Dr. Love's book proves that becoming sensually and "sexually fluent" is a skill that can send flames soaring, no matter how long you've been a couple or how humdrum your sex life has become.
Hot Monogamy includes a nine-step program that starts with a self-quiz for each partner for determining "sexual style." This helps pinpoint which areas need to be worked on, such as resolving differences in desire--one of the most common problems among long-term couples. Communication is a big topic, but another painless quiz helps reveal romantic expectations both in and out of bed to help clarify exactly where overlooked problems may be festering.
Then comes technique. The chapter "Variety: How to Have More Fun in Bed" may prove the most useful, with discussions of sex toys, fantasy, sex games, and other forms of experimentation. Dr. Love is a firm believer in the G spot, and clearly explains how to make maximum fireworks with it. The book also includes contact information for sexual products that can be sent to you confidentially, as well as guidelines and resources for seeing a sex therapist. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

I wouldn't remain faithful to this book.,
By Treebyleaf McCurdy (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hot Monogamy (Mass Market Paperback)
Hot Monogamy has some wonderful touching exercises, and very good examinations of how relationships work, especially where communication goes wrong and how it can go right. Unfortunately, the book's sexual content is sadly biased by cultural myth and mass-assumptions. This would be a nice companion for a book with better sexual content, such as Lonnie Barbach's For Each Other or the New Good Vibrations Guide to Sex, but it shouldn't stand alone.

Too Hot!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hot Monogamy (Mass Market Paperback)
After eight years of marriage, I found Dr. Love's book to be a truly practical, intellectual and stimulating (pun intended!) guide to a more passionate, intimate love relationship. Be sure to share this with all your friends!

Dr. "Love" Has No Clue About It,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hot Monogamy (Mass Market Paperback)
Only a woman who had a marriage end because of her own lack of interest of sex could have written a book like this. She writes that a lack of interest in sex does not mean a lack of love. I have discovered that only two groups of people feel this way: Men who have wives with a high level of sexual desire and who initiate sex on a regular basis, and women with a low level of sexual desire who probably lost a husband by saying "I don't care if I ever do it again."
