Book Description
“Taking Sexy Back is going directly on my top list of recommended sexuality readings.” —Esther Perel, author of Mating in Captivity and The State of Affairs It is time for a new sexual revolution. It’s time to take sexy back. As women, we’re expected to be sexy, but not sexual. We’re bombarded with conflicting, shame-inducing, and disempowering messages about sex, instead of being encouraged to connect with our true sexual selves. Sexy gets reduced to a performance, leaving us with little to no space to reckon with the complexities of sexuality. In a culture intent on telling you who and how to be, standing in your truth is revolutionary. From relationship expert Alexandra Solomon—author of Loving Bravely—Taking Sexy Back is a groundbreaking guide to deepening your connection to yourself, honoring your desires, and cultivating authentic intimate connections. On these pages, you’ll discover how to deepen your sexual self-awareness, and use that awareness to create experiences that not only pleasure, but elevate, expand, and heal you. You’ll learn to understand your boundaries, communicate what feels good, and bring mindfulness and self-compassion to sex. Most importantly, you’ll embrace your sexuality as an evolving, essential, and beautiful part of your life. Sex is about more than what your partner enjoys or finds sexy. It’s about more than having an orgasm or finding the “right” positions. It’s about you. It’s time to take your sexy back! Named one of Cosmopolitan's Best Nonfiction Books of 2020! 2020 Consumer Book Honorable Mention from The Society for Sex Therapy and Research (SSTAR) As featured on The Morning Show—Australia's top-rated morning program

Book Description
Every year, 6 million companies and more than 100,000 products are launched.

In this entertaining and engaging book, ace naming consultant Alexandra Watkins explains how anyone—even noncreative types—can create memorable and buzz-worthy brand names. No degree in linguistics required. The heart of the book is Watkins's proven SMILE and SCRATCH Test—two acronyms for what makes or breaks a name.

And you'll see dozens of examples—the good, the bad, and the “so bad she gave them an award.” Alexandra Watkins is not afraid to name names.

Pirates in the Regency? Of course! The Pirate Next Door Mayfair, London, 1810: Alexandra Alastair, a respectable young English widow, wonders if she dare add the Grayson Finley, Viscount Stoke, who’s moved in next door, to her list of potential husbands. She doesn’t know that Grayson has made a bargain with the devil (otherwise known as the pirate hunter James Ardmore) to ensure the safety of his daughter. He’ll do anything to keep young Maggie safe, but when Alexandra saves his life, with one look into her eyes, Grayson starts to drown. How can he keep both his daughter and now the beautiful Mrs. Alastair from the clutches of his enemy? And how can he prevent himself falling madly and deeply in love with her? The Pirate Hunter Diana Worthing is the wife of an English naval hero and daughter of a naval hero—she’s had quite enough of heroes, thank you. So when James Ardmore, Southern gentleman pirate hunter and thorn in the side of the British navy, abducts her from a tedious house party and spirits her off to his ship, she lets him know what she thinks of heroes. James knows Diana and her father’s private island called Haven holds the secret to the pirate he’s been hunting for years. He can’t bend the beautiful Lady Worthing to his will, though James is intrigued by this woman of unquenchable fire. He’s pleased to find himself stranded on Haven the following year, Diana Worthing now a widow, and the sparks between them just as hot. The Care and Feeding of Pirates Honoria Ardmore has a secret. Four years ago, the notorious pirate Christopher Raine, arrested for stealing a ship full of gold bound for Napoleon, makes one last request of Honoria. She grants it, and Christopher is taken out to be hanged . . . Or was he? Honoria couldn’t possibly have seen him come back to life in the rather thick air of Covent Garden, could she? Christopher is long dead and gone, Honoria’s secret with him, and now she’s betrothed to a respectable English gentleman. His sentence having been commuted at the last minute, Christopher spent the last four years working for his freedom as he crisscrossed the world. He’s lost everything, his ship, his crew, his very identity. Now he’s determined to retrieve it all—ship, friends, the treasure he was forced to abandon. Most of all Christopher wants Honoria Ardmore—and he’ll stop at nothing to get her back. Join the crews of the Starcross, the Argonaut, and the Majesty for a delightful combination of Regency romance and pirate adventure!
