What people are saying
‘Offers realistic hope for active-duty servicemembers and veterans who have returned home with physical and/or psychological health challenges that are creating difficulties in their intimate lives....While super-relevant to people with disabilities and their partners, the frank and open sharing is enlightening and informative to all audiences. The full-on injection of raw humanity — shared with a purpose to make lives more full and pleasurable — is an essential element of addressing disability and sexuality.‘
