“Don‘t call up love before you are ready,” says the Song of Solomon. Sounds fair enough, but in fact how do you get ready for love?

In this book, we meet a man and a woman who are definitely NOT ready for a satisfying relationship—but then we go with them on a deeply moving journey as they encounter their “love obstacles” in a profound way.

Readers can get ready for an answer to a burning question: can we do something to make love come into our lives?

Letters to the author about Sex, Love, and Therapy:

As a reader, I was there in the moment with the two characters. Their coming together was incredibly moving and emotional. The build-up of the intensity of the tension before that was thrilling. It was so important to me read a book where two characters grow into new and improved versions of themselves and can finally find meaning in their life. This book showed me how intimacy really works. Being quite young and yet having experienced love on my own, this is something that I will always remember. Reading “Sex, Love, and Therapy” gave me a better perspective on how I should carry myself and treat those around me. Thank you.

For the man and the woman in this book, love never made sense before they were ready and found each other; then it became something truly magical. The negativity that was in their lives before quickly became something that seemed more insignificant. For once, they were both truly happy and content with their life and their future. They truly loved each other so sincerely; they loved the good and the bad about each other and accepted them for who they were, expecting nothing more in return. That’s love and something I personally aspire to have in my life.

As a young woman, I really enjoyed the part where Michelle was talking about how guys sometimes have sex “at you” instead of “with you.” Fortunately, I’ve never had this experience, but I know many of my friends would relate to this. I really appreciated the rawness of this part of the book since it is a deep subject.

There were so many psychological blocks in the characters that I recognized in myself and my friends. This book achieves multi-dimensional characters that we can empathize with, especially when they overcome the things that held them back. I highly recommend this story for the many lessons on love that are priceless.

I’ve never read a book that surprised me as much this one. It started out with these two characters that I wasn’t sure I liked at all. Then all of a sudden it took me into a whole thing about love that I realized I’d been waiting to read all of my life. It gave me goosebumps. This must be one of the most important books ever written about love and I’m a serious student of literature.
