Marriage Psychology

This audiobook is a laugh-out-loud funny and brutally honest look at female sexuality, as told through the razor-sharp lens of domesticated bad girl BB Easton. No one and nothing is off limits as BB revisits the ex-boyfriends - a sadistic tattoo artist, a punk-rock parolee, and a heavy-metal bass player - that led her to finally find true love with a straitlaced, drop-dead-gorgeous...accountant. After settling down and starting a family with her perfectly vanilla "husbot", Ken, BB finds herself longing for the reckless passion she had in her youth.
