As a counsellor, I will be highly recommending this book to many couples asking for self-help literature. Laura Corn has written a well-researched book that is bound to improve personal relationships. The book contains a unique concept, two fold-out menus: one for him, one for her. Your partner does not see your menu so each "treat" is a unique surprise which is bound to spice up your life, arouse your senses and strengthen the bond of love and closeness. There are over seventy tips and suggestions in each menu that will surprise and delight your partner. This book contains a "diet" that is certainly like no other, and a lot more enjoyable than most. The author presents valid suggestions and techniques on how to renew passion, expand communication and maintain the intimacy of loving relationships. While most of us think of the word "diet" in relation to losing weight, do not be surprised if that is an extra benefit of the book. With all the excitement, passion and additional "exercise" you may be encountering, weight loss may, for some, be a pleasant secondary benefit. The cost of this book is a small price to pay for such valuable advice.

I have all of Laura's books and honestly, some are 3 stars or less. This one, however, is a clear winner. It is obvious she took a lot of time and effort in this one (perhaps now that she has a publisher, they have helped her with this). The concept is simple and therefore not too difficult for most people to follow.

Her tips in most sections are quite good - not too wild or kinky, but sensual enough that it has the desired results -- more passion.

One thing missing is ideas for romance to go along with the sex (romance and sex ARE two different things). If I keep tearing out pages just to fulfill my sexual lust then something is missing. If the only time I am paying attention to my partner and treating them nicely is during a sexual escapade, then they could start to feel like I'm using them.

I have found a good solution in the book, The Romantic's Guide by Michael Webb --it has thousands of creative ideas for letting someone know they are special (not just because you want to have sex with them).

If you use these two books in tandem, you will have the ingredients for a very blissful relationship.

This book is AMAZING. Laura Corn is the best sex author out there...and she outdoes herself with this book. I bought the book a week ago, and already my fiance and I are having the BEST TIME we've ever had. The secret menus are so exciting! He's already surprised me with a candlelit bubble bath and some other things I can't mention here--because I don't want to ruin YOUR surprise. Buy this book! Trust me! Your love life (and your sex life) will never be the same. It improves every aspect of your relationship. If you're in a rut, this is the surefire way to get out of it. It's so fun!!!!!! Plus, there are stories and before and after pictures of the 38 other couples who've tried the diet. You won't believe the difference! How inspiring! And these aren't models; they're REAL people--old, young, heavy, skinny, married, single. I seriously couldn't put the book down, and neither could my fiance. We've been reading it aloud to each other every night. What a bedtime story!

After a few years of struggling with sexuality and two different therapists, my wife and I seem to have found a groove with the ideas presented in this book. The love of my life is mostly "reserved" in her sexual identity. The ideas in this book are not for that type of individual but what the book offers simply by its' purchase is an opportunity for polar opposite types of personalities to get more in touch with "the other side".

My wife and I are polar opposites. I enjoy sex and basically, she doesn't. It's not because she doesn't love me but she simply doesn't have the drive. With this book we have been able to explore ourselves simply by giving the ideas presented an honest chance. We have done just that and I tell you what, I'm already seeing dramatic changes just by our willingness to try new things. When you purchase the book, don't be put off by the "toys", give them a chance. I had never tried them before, nor had my wife, but she surely enjoyed it which in turn made it a great experience for me as well.

I heard about this book during a radio interview with Laura on my way home and I thought it sounded like so much fun my partner might actually give it a try. I bought the book and introduced it to him, and much to my delight he was excited about it as well. We are having so much fun planning for one another that it really helped us remember that it isn't the sex that was missing - it was the attention we payed to one another. I highly recommend this book to anyone in a relationship that just needs a little pick me up. It won't solve all of your problems, but you will be more open to resolving them.

"Santa" brought this book for my husband after I found it online here at Amazon. After 15 years of marriage we were definitely in a slump.

While the beginning text gets a little "corny", pardon the pun and can be repetitive, the actual diet is really fun. My husband was worried that scheduling sex would seem to structured but it adds to the excitement of what's to come.

We're having more fun than we've had in years. I feel like a college kid again. Not every suggestion is a home-run, but even failed attempts bring you closer together recalling the funnier moments.

The best $ I ever spent on a book!

I bought this book for my boyfriend, and we both fell in love with it from page one. Crank up those air conditioners, folks, 'cause things are gonna get STEAMY once you start using your secret menus on each other. When we tried "The Heat Is On" spice, he practically had to scrape me off the ceiling. And "Pearl-lingus" was my boyfriend's favorite. Hint: you'll never look at a strand of pearls the same way again! This book is MAGICAL, that's all I can say. All of a sudden, my guy is buying me little gifts and surprising me with bubble baths...and we've only been on the diet for two weeks. (Thank you, Laura Corn!) If your relationship has hit a rut like mine had, BUY THIS BOOK and watch your guy go from "dud" to "stud" in no time!

The problem with this book is that it is mostly testimonial
about how great this book or rather this "diet" is, only about a third of it is for you directly. If you want to read testimonials and realize that not everyone has great sex all the time then hey buy it, otherwise put the money somewhere else, There are some fun things contained in the his and hers sections but it is a very small portion of the book!! We found it to be an overall disappointment.

Laura Corn has definately outdone herself this time! This book has totally turned around my relationship with my husband, and we have only been on the diet two weeks. You definately cannot go wrong with this diet! You owe it to yourself and your relationship to try it out. Have fun!
