Perfect Sex Reviews

Andrea Thompson

The Writing .... Was fast-paced and very humorous. The humor in Perfect Sex is what I enjoyed the most. 

This is a thoroughly enjoyable read that bubbles with laughs for the newly single and not-so-young-at-heart.

Readers' Favorite

Perfect Sex combines brilliant characters, witty dialogue, and the more delicate subjects in a way that is fun and interesting to read. If you’re looking for a love story and aren’t afraid of one with an edge, Perfect Sex is the book for you.

I loved the frank talk and the insight this book gave me into the female mind, especially regarding matters of sex. In the last section, the book shifts gears and becomes more about publishing a book: working with an editor and doing promotional pieces.

Interview With Robin Storey

Is Perfect Sex based on your own experiences?

Believe it or not, I'm asked this question a lot. And the short answer is ‘partly.’

All the events and characters are fictional, but they are inspired by my own, and others’ experiences of internet dating in the early 2000s.

This was a time when it was still regarded with suspicion and derision by a lot of people.

Nowadays internet dating has become an accepted way of meeting potential partners, but back then it was considered the prerogative of the deviant and desperate. Or the extremely brave. (Of course I was in the latter category).

You can read more about my experiences in internet dating in my blog post The Bald Facts About Internet Dating.

Is there such a thing as Perfect Sex?

Well, it is a work of fiction! In the book, perfect sex is really a metaphor for a relationship that is perfect on all planes – sexual, emotional, mental and spiritual.

If you have a wonderful sexual relationship, it usually means you’re in synch in all the other parts of your life as well.

You might argue that there is no such thing as the perfect relationship, but perfection is in the eye of the beholder.

And while a relationship might not be perfect in the abstract sense, if it’s perfect for the two people in it, that’s all that matters.

Is the protagonist Susie Hamilton based on you?

Parts of her are. I was a divorced forty-something freelance writer with teenage children when I wrote it, but that’s about where the comparison ends.

I would not have had the courage, not to mention the time and energy, to date so many men. That’s the beauty of being an author – you can make your characters do the things you wouldn’t have the nerve to do yourself.

And I think many divorced middle-aged women can relate to the issues that Susie grapples with such as:

1. The parts of your body that suddenly declare their independence and want to go their own way (usually south).

2. Dealing with your own sexual needs as well as the burgeoning sexuality of your teenage children and;

3. Navigating the stormy waters of dating and romance when the whole scene has changed completely since you were last single.

Will you be writing more romantic comedy books or novellas?

In the near future, no.

I’ve gone over to the dark side. I’m writing crime/suspense/noir.

But I never say never – life has a habit of throwing completely unexpected opportunities in your path.
