This is so awesome! I am so enjoying reading the book. At first I felt like, yes, yes, this is how I feel! But, what do I do about it? Starting to feel frustrated I told myself, "keep reading, keep reading". By the end of the 2nd chapter I was already equipped with something I could do. That's why I love Shannon's books. Its like she's read my mind! I've tried a lot of things to get over this "bump" in my marriage and I feel like I have some hope. I actually just built a retail website (I won't list it here, I'm not advertising.) that offers intimacy enhancing products for marriage covenant partners. I had gone to this "Brown Bag Party Lady" party a year or so back, and felt so uncomfortable with all of the things they were advertising. (I.E. ..."And this one is great for masturbation!")In trying to find cool things to share with my husband, I had to hear about and subject myself to things I wasn't comfortable with. I actually bought some things that vibrated thinking, "Oh yeah! I can use this with my husband." Later, we threw them out...we just couldn't feel good about them. In building my site, I'm only offering products that have no pornographic pictures, no outlandish product names, and that wives and husbands can really use together without the temptation of one or the other to use it for masturbation. (Things like massage oils, candles, and even the fun stuff like edible body dust, etc. I'm also going to be taking photos of lingerie on a manneuin instead of displaying the photos with the "perfect 10" models hanging out of their night-wear.) Anyway, I'm believing that with this book and my newfound passion to offer more appropriate products for marriage covenant partners that this whole thing is finally going to turn around in my life. Thank you Jesus. Wow! This is so awesome! I am so enjoying reading the book. At first I felt like, yes, yes, this is how I feel! But, what do I do about it?

BUT the message that Shannon has imparted into me (& many other women) & is also conveying in this book is that sexiness is a condition of the heart. My husband would second that notion. Our inward sex kitten is often scared & wounded. So rather than flirt & entice, we hiss & claw & retreat. I can guarantee this book isn't about how to be the sexy AOL models you saw in the article, but rather to heal & awaken to the fact that you are desirable.
