 I would love to see a study guide with this book! March 31, 2006

Both my husband and I really benefited from the information in this book, and we've been married for 15 years. We also recommeded the book to others we know that have been married for a while, because we feel it is so important to consider premarital sex as an issue- even this far down the road if it hasn't been effectively dealt with. We really just missed looking into this and I'm so thankful that Heather Jamison addressed this issue, so that we could address it. I know that our marriage will benefit from our time dealing with and resolving some of these issues. I think it's also a great warning to unmarried people that these issues are real and waiting to have sex until you're married is much more worth the time then struggling through these issues later. If you are considering waiting or not please read this book, it will give you good reason to make the "wait" choice!!!!

I bought this book for a friend because it came highly recommended by my daughter. Both women felt the book helpful to many aspects of newly-married couples even when the circumstances were not similar. My daughter (now 28) hopes it will be made readily available to High School aged girls.

I just got in touch with Heather J in Kenya. She is so real in the book that I wanted to talk to someone who stood where I once did. I am about to work on a similar book and this one has made some good points for me to think over. It is true she doesn't deal a lot with women who have had sex with partners that they did not marry, but she did a wonderful job of reaching those of use who DID marry at least 1 of our partners. I am impressed with her honesty. It can't be easy to reveal such personal information. I admite Heather J.
 Fails to address some important issues June 17, 2002

This book is certainly noble in purpose and probably helpful to many, but I was seeking information on overcoming the damage done when people have had premarital sex with others besides their spouses. There was almost none, perhaps because the authors have not been in that situation. Other books about the Christian perspective on sex in general have addressed that issue more fully than this one devoted to "the consequences of premarital relationships," so I was pretty disappointed.
Really well done May 29, 2002

As someone who often lectures on the subject of marital intimacy, I had never seen a book that dealt with the all-too-common problem of premarital sexual relationships in consenting relationships and the baggage they bring to the marriage relationship. The Jamisons have done a great service by providing such a resource, and they have done so by sharing from their own experience. They are honest and vulnerable without being self-focused--no small feat. This book is a valuable aid both to married couples dealing with the pain of previous relationships and to the unmarried who are considering their own standards of purity.
