Matthew D. ★★★★★

Finally a book that treats chronic pain and intimacy as something worth actually talking about instead of dodging. The sections on positioning and fatigue-friendly pacing were the most practical I've come across, and it never once felt clinical or preachy.

Carter ★★★★★

Finally a sex guide that actually addresses chronic pain instead of pretending it doesn't exist. The sections on positioning and adapting techniques were genuinely useful for me and my partner. It covers so much ground without ever feeling clinical.
