THE GUY IN A LONG-TERM RELATIONSHIP
Journalist Arianne Cohen asked hundreds of ordinary people from every walk of life to record their intimate sexual thoughts and encounters for a single week. The result is a tantalising and steamy glimpse into their private lives and longings.

Eye-opening and deliciously voyeuristic, it will change the way you think about your friends, colleagues, neighbours and fellow commuters forever.
Arianne Cohen is the editor of TheSexDiariesProject.com, which began as a smash-hit column in the U.S. She is a graduate of Harvard, and this is her uniquely British edition.
