Nikki Gemmell

An intimate celebration of women and friendship from international bestselling author Nikki Gemmell.

‘The Bride Stripped Bare’ exposed female desire as no other book had; raw, intoxicating and breathtakingly libidinous.

‘Pleasure’ looks set to do the same with more secret women’s business – dealing candidly with everything from Brazilian waxes to ‘secret’ underwear, from coping with broken hearts to what makes a perfect partner (a checklist to cut out and keep), from advice on the friends who flatten you (frenemies) to the importance of empathy.
Both bold and intimate, ‘Pleasure’ is a book Nikki Gemmell says she looked for as a gift for a cherished friend – and never found. So she decided to write it herself.

Encased in a stunning design package with beautiful feminine illustrations, this is a book every woman will want to share with her best friend, aunt, sister or fairy godmother.
