Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Now playing: the second verse of Nelson's wildly popular debut (Sexual Healing), with Marvin Gaye again providing the thematic backup for the over-the-top sexual shenanigans and ribald politics embraced by the proprietors of A Sister's Spa. This time out, Yale-educated lawyer LaShaWanda P. Marshall, and fellow spa founders Lydia Beaucoup and Acey Allen recreate their successful unorthodox Reno, Nev., spa on a boat moored off Martha's Vineyard. As Wanda puts it: œWe were offering women multiorgasmic sex without the complications or mating, dating, or a relationship, and they were hungry for it, In Martha's Vineyard, the crew appeals to the established black community to open its arms to the new business while battling a mobster trying to shake them down, a racist madman in their midst and a president who aims to outlaw anything but sex-for-procreation with a bill called œNo Child, No Behind. It's a dopey mix of overbroad sexual and racial politics, but the sisters still manage to sizzle—and elicit smiles with their insatiable appetites for love, social justice and the sex trade. (June)

Review
"The sisters still manage to sizzle-and elicit smiles with their insatiable appetites for love, social justice and the sex trade." (Publishers Weekly )
"Sexual Healing is a wild, sexy ride...a fearless look at what women want, and a fresh take on how they can get it ...You'll emerge refreshed and invigorated, in body, mind, and soul." (--E. Lynn Harris, A Love of My Own and Any Way the Wind Blows )
"Sister Jill isn't just a foot soldier in what passes for war between the sexes. She's our commander-in-chief and follow we must." (--Pearl Cleage, What Looks Like Crazy On An Ordinary Day and I Wish I Had A Red Dress --Pearl Cleage, What Looks Like Crazy On An Ordinary Day and I Wish I Had A Red Dress --Pearl Cleage, What Looks Like Crazy On An Ordinary Day and I Wish I Had A Red )
"Let's Get It On is imbued with a complex narrative that involves the mob and politics. . . . In terms of life about the yacht, let's just say Nelson spins a super sexy yarn just in time for summer." (AOL Black Voices )
"With its sex-positive message and unapologetic emphasis on female enjoyment, Nelson's latest makes for a zingy beach read." (Kirkus Reviews )
"A hot summer read from the sizzling social commentator and author of Volunteer Slavery and Sexual Healing." (Ebony )
"Jill Nelson tells it like it is. . . . And while the novel lives up to its name, at its core this is the story of friends having one another's backs." (Essence )
"As a social commentator, [Nelson's] pretty fearless. She also knows how to construct a compelling narrative. Happily, she scraps neither of these talents as a novelist." (New York Times Book Review )
