About the author

Hi. I'm Joan Eliabeth Lloyd. Let me tell you a bit about myself.

Pesonal stuff: I was born in 1941 - yes, as of this writing I'm 77. I have a wonderful partner of thirty years named Ed (no, we're not married - for tax reasons) two wonderful daughters, a talented son-in-law and three grandchildren, Sarah and Adam, both out of college and gain-fully employed and Luke, aged 15.

Professional stuff: I wrote my first book, Nice Couples Do, in 1990, because I wanted to share my ideas about sexual communication and sexual freedom. I've written many books (novels and non-fiction) since but stopped writing several years ago.

As you may have gathered, I'm a devoted couch potato. I'm an omnivorous reader, both in my eyes and in my ears.

My present interest is in Battered women. I donate earrings, about 900 pair a month, to shelters all over the country, with the help of attendees at my many workshops.
Phew!!!!

Tracy caught her jerk of a husband giving it to her best friend. He says that she is frigid and his behavior is her fault. She left him and went back home. But she has had no dates and no sex in two years. Her sister Kim writes an advice column. A few years ago she started Creative Loving Weekends to help counsel people in their relationships and with sex. But Kim has found out that she is pregnant and since she is over 40 and there is more than one baby, she will have to be on bedrest later in her pregnancy. Kim needs Tracy to help out with the Weekends, especially the one scheduled for January. The money Kim makes from the these weekends pays for their mother's care at a nursing home. Their mother has Alzheimer's.
Tracy cannot imagine that she could teach these seminars that Kim does. She is frigid. Or so she thinks. With the help from Kim and Dave, the hotel owner where the weekends take place Tracy's like changes.

I enjoyed this story. There are lot of different storylines here. You learn about the people that come to the weekends and why they come. People learn about themselves and their wants and needs. Some fall more in love with their partners and others realize that they want something different. It is about growing and exploring! I have not read anything by Lloyd before, but will read other books by her.

First time reading this author. I must say I like her writing style. This story is excellent so far, and I'm almost done. My friend bought about 5 of her books, so I will continue reading and rating when I'm through with each!

I understand the parallel storylines of the people that attended the retreat. The author wanted to elaborate on their stories and how the retreat helped with the intimate physical part of the relationship. I'm glad to see that Tracy regained her confidence in herself, especially with her sexuality. The book focused on people with issues of self esteem, control, self doubt, and commitment. This book makes you realize that true happiness is loving one self; believing in yourself; and having someone believe in you and love you for who and what you are.

I read enough of this book to realize that it wasn’t for me. The concept is a little far fetched and the three main characters have no personality. The chemistry between Tracy and Dave is lack luster at best. Towards the end of the last book we are introduced to an array of new characters that have no real purpose other than to end the story. The very last page feels rushed towards a happily ever after.

Okay, so honestly I only got about half way and then gave up. I wasn't able to connect to the characters and it felt very outdated. Then in the middle she adds multiple new character story lines. I just didn't care enough to read any more. From what I can tell, I skipped the parts that had the erotica portion of the book but I just wasn't into reading any more or wasting any more time.
