Love, lust, & faking it : the naked truth about sex, lies, and true romance / Jenny McCarthy.
Inveterate truth teller McCarthy providesa funny, often poignant, and no-holds-barred look at the essence of relationships: love and sex. Jenny explores the intensity of first love, introducing us to Tony, the boy of her teenage dreams, and Tubby, her dirty, sexy stuffed teddy bear. She takes us on a whirlwind tour of the world of aphrodisiacs and fetishes, explains the importance of playing doctor and other nice and naughty fantasies, and gives thanks for the pleasures of chocolate. And she sets the story straight on STDs, man junk and lady bits, why we really cheat, why women are master manipulators, the virtues of sex with the lights off, the power of a "loving no," the satisfaction of the perfect booty call, and much more. Throughout, Jenny reminds us to aim higher, believe in true love, and, most of all, be kind to ourselves.--From publisher description.
