It reminds me of those cheesy romance novels with Fabio on the cover, but there isn't much romance...just fake sex and fake situations.

I love Bebe Moore Campbell's books.

Anyone else read Addicted?
Well Soror, we have talked about it in the other book thread but I agree with you. . . Addicted had a good premise but it drags and the ending BITES, SUCKS, BLOWS, etc. etc.

The book could have been more realistic without the following:
* husband's reason for being "methodical" about sex
* protagonist's reason for being INTO sex
* protagonist become best friends with her therapist

Keep reading and then we can talk in a more detailed fashion.
