Customer Reviews
Wonderful! And the book's pretty good as well.
Excellent book, and highly recommended by my wife and I. Read it before the wedding - but not too long before :-) A few weeks is fine. We read it separately during a time when we were on different continents, then discussed it on the phone. That worked well - no temptations! And pay attention to the honeymoon packing list. 
Good overview
This book is a good overview and introduction for couples preparing to go on honeymoon. Sex is set within a biblical context. It is practical and is good at initating discussion between a couple.
However for a book which is relatively short it spends a large proportion of time preparing you for things that can go wrong both in the short term and the longer term, while summarising other topics which I would rather they had provided more detail on. Some of the potential problems are almost frightening for couples who have not had sex and these are the chapters at the end of the book!
Overall I would say it is a book which deals openly about the subject of sex within marriage. It prepares you for potential issues for honeymoon and beyond and is quite practical and a useful tool for starting discussion for an engaged couple. While I would recommend it I would say it is a starting point.
