The authors of The New Good Vibrations Guide to Sex and The Woman's Guide to Sex on the Web, Anne Semans and Cathy Winks have written a book that may find a wide and willing audience: The Mother's Guide to Sex: Enjoying Your Sexuality Through All Stages of Motherhood. Semans and Winks, employees of famed San Francisco sex shop Good Vibrations, approach their subject with characteristic optimism (one section is titled "Moms Make Better Lovers") and forthright wit, offering answers to such daunting questions as "Can I use sex toys in my last trimester?" and, for single moms, "Where should you spend the night...?" Even moms who aren't troubled by such challenges may enjoy Winks and Semans's chatty, companionable style.

There's one thing that almost every mother knows but won't discuss: Sex drive diminishes after a baby is born, and it's a struggle to reclaim passion in the years that follow. In Great Sex for Moms Dr. Raskin brings the problem out into the open -- at last - and reveals the reasons that women's bodies and minds betray them, resulting in a sleepy libido. The great news is that it's easier than you might think to wake it up. Great Sex for Moms is perhaps the most important book a mother can read for nurturing her marriage, her children, and above all, her own sexuality.

While parenting books rarely broach the subject, most mothers can testify that sexual desire doesn't disappear when they have children; it simply gets buried under an avalanche of conflicting demands on their time and attention. Sexy Mamas, by the authors of The Good Vibrations Guide to Sex, reaches out to women who want to integrate the pleasures of a satisfying sex life with the joys of motherhood. The book offers tips, anecdotes, and practical information about sex, supported by advice from medical experts, sex experts, and the most knowledgeable experts in this area — other mothers. Candid anecdotes and suggestions from hundreds of survey respondents support, encourage, and inspire readers to embrace a more powerful maternal sexuality. Topics include what hormonal, psychological, and environmental factors affect the sex drive, rekindling relationships, the best sex, parenting resources, and more. Sexy Mamas is a practical, informed guide for all mothers.

Yes, it's a joke. This amusing little book offers up a collection of "pornographic" photos, all of them depicting good looking guys doing nice things like changing diapers and doing housework. The Cambridge Women's Pornography Co-operative doesn't really exist either, although photographer Susan Anderson says they're just preferring to remain anonymous. Either way, it's good for a laugh and share with your friends (or partner).

And while we're at it, here's the first book in the series. Prepare to enter a fantasy world. A world where clothes get folded just so, delicious dinners await, and flatulence is just not that funny. Give the fairer sex what they really wan:t beautiful PG photos of hunky men cooking, listening, asking for directions, accompanied by steamy captions: "I love a clean house!" or "As long as I have two legs to walk on, you'll never take out the trash." Unfortunately there's no nudity but you can get that on the web :) Good for a laugh or as a hen's night gift.

Best Women’s Erotica 2008 delivers risky, romantic, heart-pounding thrills. Joyful, daring, and authentic, these 21 steamy stories revel in erotic adventure, from the sparks between strangers to the knowing caresses of long-time lovers.

In “Winter Heat,” a woman finds that each year, the winter’s first snowfall reminds her of a cold night when she was 18 and the stranger who taught her that “passion can be found and shared in the most unusual of places.” And in “You Can Do Mine,” Céline finally gets to try out her purple dildo and leather harness with her new lover Leo, the first man to give the right answer when she tells him “you can do mine if I can do yours.”

Bedtime Stories for Women turns a sweet fairytale into something extremely naughty and pleasurable (so to speak) to read. Nancy Madore renames the titles of some of the most memorable stories and also adds some original stories with a cartoonish setting. Titles include "The Empress' New Clothes," "Cat and Mouse," "Goldilocks and the Three Barons," "Mirror on the Wall," "Beauty and the Beast," and "East of Sun." Not only are the stories smolderingly erotic, they also empower women to be uninhibited and independent. Some of the stories also deal with issues about one's physical appearance. "The Ugly Duckling" delves into the aforementioned issue in a profound, thought-provoking way.

Joe Maynard enters a love/hate relationship with a two-million-dollar sex toy in "Fleshlight." Greta Christina's "Are We Having Sex Now or What?" asks the provocative question of what defines authentic sexual connection and experience.
