Customer Reviews

A fabulous book for a mom of young ones

I loved this book. After having two kids in 2 1/2 years, I felt like sex was the last thing I thought about, the last thing I wanted to do. And I felt like a freak because of it! here I am in my late 20's and not desiring sex. Jill presents the material in a funny, non-judgemental way. My husband and I have faith in our God and Jill makes it very clear that our relationship with God is the most important part of cultivating a healthey relationship with each other. It is a book about sex, but it is more importantly a book about healing and strengthening a marriage in a Godly manner. A must read for any stressed new mom!

Couldn't put it down!

Someone recently gave me a copy of Jill's book. I didn't think I would be interested in it because our kids are long gone--married for years. But as I thumbed through it, I couldn't put it down! I would highly recommend this book for any marriage in any season.Sherrie Eldridge, author and speaker

Graceful guide to intimacy

Jill Savage has gifted Christian couples with her new book, Is There Really Sex After Kids? The central part of the gift is grace--lovingly teaching the reader about those things that inhibit intimacy, better ways to communicate physical need, and male/female differences of desire. The Christian community needs more such books of grace. I recommend this quickly-read book highly.

If there isn't, there will be after you read this book!

As a speaker and author, this is a book I would not only share with other women, but will carry on my table so that women can buy it and enjoy the common-sense wisdom contained inside. My first "ah" moment was when I read the definition of intimacy. There were many more moments such as that as I heard the heartbeat of a woman share an honest and straightforward path to sexual intimacy for couples who juggle work, kids, and life. Highly recommended. I receive tons of books to review and only a handful stay on my shelf as treasures. This is one of them.

Human and helpful

Humorous, human, honorable, helpful--a friendly book for people who feel the flame has gone out of their marital passion. After you read it for your own encouragement and education, you'll want to tell others about it. The Savages anticipated this with an in-book study guide. Hooray--an all-in-one study book for small group studies or Sunday school classes!
