Review:

"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

"The sisters still manage to sizzle--and elicit smiles with their insatiable appetites for love, social justice and the sex trade."--Publishers Weekly

"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

"With its sex-positive message and unapologetic emphasis on female enjoyment, Nelson's latest makes for a zingy beach read."--Kirkus Reviews

"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

"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

"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

"A hot summer read from the sizzling social commentator and author of Volunteer Slavery and Sexual Healing."--Ebony
