About With My Body

For fans of FIFTY SHADES OF GREY; the author of sensational bestseller THE BRIDE STRIPPED BARE returns with a powerful tale of marriage and desire. Smothered by marriage and family, a woman feels life slipping through her fingers. She becomes preoccupied with thoughts of her early education in love at the hands of Tol, a man like no other she has known. Memories of the affair – Tol’s appetite for her pleasure and her trusting desire – consume her. But the mysterious end to their intimacy left her confused and unwilling to love again with all her heart. Discovering the woman she once was is an erotic journey back into the past and an exploration of reawakened passion. Reviews Praise for ‘The Bride Stripped Bare’: 'Starkly explicit…richly descriptive with a fast-paced narrative' Sunday Telegraph 'Nikki Gemmel's prose has a wonderful sensuousness…witty…a subtle portrait of a modern and rather alienating marriage' Lisa Appignanesi, Independent Magazine 'Must read…A tale of sexual awakening for the dark horse in all of us' Tatler ‘The sex is well-written…Gemmell is refreshingly straightforward about the act' Melanie McGrath, Evening Standard 'Easy to read, hard to put down. Keep an extinguisher handy' Closer 'A page-turner' Evening Standard 'A bored housewife embarks on a life of sexual pleasure…The sex is rude and raunchy and "exactly where you want it"' Elle 'Personal dilemmas are bravely explored; thoughts and fantasies about sex and infidelity, which most women have learned to keep to themselves, are laid bare on the page in all their shocking glory…brutal, brilliant and addictive' Glasgow Herald About the author Nikki Gemmell’s unmasking as the 'anonymous' author of The Bride Stripped Bare sparked tremendous media interest in the book, which went on to become an international bestseller. Reviewers have hailed the freshness and power of her writing.
