Product Description

Better Than I Ever Expected is a warm, witty, and honest book that contends with the challenges and celebrates the delights of older-life sexuality. It asserts that women over sixty are at the top of their game when it comes to enjoying sex.
Joan Price’s woman-to-woman straight talk transcends the self-help style of other books in this field. Yes, there are challenges to sex after menopause and beyond, says Price, but there are also creative solutions. She is on a mission to let women her age and older know that they can, in fact, have the best sex of their lives. Price gets personal and stays positive, combining her own story with candid comments, tips, and sassy tales from sexually seasoned women. She acknowledges the gritty issues that older women confront in their sexual lives, noting that it’s not easy, but it certainly isn’t over.
At age 61, Price is newly engaged to the man she’s been looking for her whole life. Her discovery of how great “well-seasoned” sex can be was the inspiration for this book. Sidebars present candid and friendly sex tips; fitness, exercise, and lifestyle information; and women's erotic vignettes—both real-life experiences and fantasies.

Customer Reviews

Informative 5
I enjoyed the book. I have recommended this analogy of content to my friends. In fact I have read the book twice. This is a recommended read.

Disappointed1
I was very dissappointed in the content of this book. I would not recommend it to anayone.

Excellent Book5
This was a great read. I appreciated learning that I am not the only one who was lacking in knowledge. Our parents tried to educate us without mentioning sex. I wish I had had this knowledge when I was in my twenties. My sex life would have been much better. I recommend this book to anyone - men, women, couples. I ordered a different book on tape first and felt it was a waste of money. This book is worth every penny and the resources are wonderful.
