Fifty Shades of Pleasure

If the kinky erotic romance novel Fifty Shades of Grey left you breathless with desire, you need the non-fiction companion book Fifty Shades of Pleasure by Marisa Bennett, to help make fiction a reality!

Being a vanilla girl curious about BDSM (bondage, discipline, sadism, and masochism) can be intimidating. You're probably conjuring up images of dog collars, dungeon and a leather-clad man who calls himself Master DragonBallz. Fear not, there are ways for a normal girl to try this stuff out with her partner in the comfort of her own bedroom - with no dungeon required. With a light, playful tone, this book explains the basics of 30 light BDSM techniques,à la Fifty Shades of Grey, from spanking and bondage with silk scarves to dirty talk, blind-folding and a little light pinch-and-scratch. Each technique is embellished with an excerpt from the Kama Sutra or classic erotica, for that extra touch of spice.

With tips, tricks and fun, easy advice from expert Marisa Bennett, Fifty Shades of Pleasure is the discreet handbook you need to begin your own erotic adventure - perhaps with your very own Christian Grey...

Marisa Bennett is a sex writer with a penchant for the erotic. She carried out the research for this book with great energy and enthusiasm, with her husband at their home in Eden Prairie, Minnesota.

Reviews

If you want a great sex life, then you have to read Tracey

—— Jo Elvin, Editor , Glamour

Cox is fantastically unshockable...She has the practical, unsqueamish air of a doctor without the white coat

—— Observer

Hot Sex: What distinguishes Cox is at the heart of her appeal: the ability to talk about sex in a universal way

—— The Times

Hot Relationships: Do not even attempt to fall in love or stay in love without this book

—— Cospmopolitan

Hot Sex - A brilliant bedside book with step-by-step advice on tapping into your own sexuality

—— B

A likeable memoir...Yossarian Slept Here gives us the gruff, arrogant big shot; the smug cocky fellow who sometimes showed up to friend's cocktail parties for the sheer fun of insulting them

—— Financial Times

Erica Heller...seems to have weathered her girlhood better than most daughters of celebrated literary lions... Heller's book shows a robust acceptance of her father's overbearing personality and Don Draperesque approach to marriage and fatherhood... The New York of the period leaps off the page

—— Independent

With wit punctuating lambent nostalgia, Erica Heller brings her father to life in an animated, absorbing fashion, documenting his quirky habits, celebrity, and "invisible, unfathomable inner cycle," but also her parents' divorce and Heller's suffering with Guillain-Barre syndrome. The total effect is akin to leafing through a bulging family scrapbook where one finds a few blurry images among many snapshots in sharp focus. Erica Heller has inherited her father's finely tuned flair with words

—— Publishers Weekly

Intimate, yet well-researched..comedic and poignant, her many-faceted memoir is rendered in high-definition as Heller recounts meals, travels, parties, arguments, lies, and the serious illnesses that afflicted her and her parents. Writing with wit, compassion, aplomb, and no little wonder at what her father wrought and her mother endured and how this legacy shaped her, Heller presents an involving and invaluable work of personal and cultural history.

—— Booklist

Heller's family memoir brims with warm reflections right from the opening chapters... An affectionate family scrapbook crafted with a bittersweet blend of humor and pathos

—— Kirkus Reviews

Erica Heller to me is like a Carrie Fisher on the East Coast. She is as authentic as they come

—— Richard Lewis, comedian, actor, author

Erica Heller has a story to tell and I for one am eager to see it in print. I think this is going to be one hell(er) of a memoir

—— Christopher Buckley, author of Losing Mum and Pup

The New York of the period leaps off the page

—— Emma Hagestadt , Independent

Heller's domestic side is evoked with painful detail by his daughter, Erica, in her well written, occasionally harrowing memoir, Yossarian Slept Here

—— Sunday Times

Likeable memoir...just as Daugherty is blind to the limitations of Heller's work so he appears resistant to personal criticism of Heller or rebuke. Just One Catch is no hagiography but, of these two biographical accounts on Yossarian Slept Here gives us the gruff, arrogant big shot; the smug cocky fellow who sometimes showed up to friend's cocktail parties for the sheer fun of insulting them

—— Leo Robson , Financial Times
