Dirty Diana - Jen Besser

A deliciously provocative novel about a woman caught between the comfortable stability of her marriage and her memories of a more sensual past--the first book in a three-part series based on the #1 fiction podcast. nToo many women are made to feel that their sexuality is something dangerous, something that should be kept under wraps. Dirty Diana busts that myth wide open.

Diana's struggles will be relatable, and her awakening inspiring, to women everywhere. Dirty Diana is a deliciously entertaining, funny, tantalizing treat of a story. n--Demi Moore n nDiana Wood has a job she likes and a husband, Oliver, she loves.

Together, they have a daughter they adore. She and Oliver spend so much time together, they even carpool to work in the same office. They're in married love, which isn't exactly the same as love love, but it's fine.

n nOr is it? Is fine good enough? n nDiana and Oliver haven't had sex in months and their intimacy seems more like a memory than a reality.

The cozy trappings of Diana's life in Dallas, Texas have become ever-more confining. She is restless, growing more distant from Oliver by the day. n nA trip to see an old friend in Santa Fe prompts Diana to remember the woman she used to be: an aspiring artist; someone devoted to creativity, spontaneity, sensuality.

In her past--especially with Jasper, the dashing photographer with whom she once had an unforgettable love affair--Diana let herself fantasize, she let her body lead the way. She was wholly...alive. n nReturning to Dallas, Diana decides to rediscover the deeply feeling woman she once was.

She begins interviewing other women, painting their portraits as they speak. She encourages them to give voice to their secret desires as she captures their deepest, innermost fantasies. But is it possible for Diana to reclaim her more sensual self and maintain the marriage she committed to?

What if connecting to her own desires means dissolving the safe life she's so carefully cultivated?n
