New York Times bestselling author Jenny McCarthy
returns to her comic roots in this candid, wise, and witty look at
women, men, sex, romance, heartbreak, love, and how (not) to fake
it.
In Belly Laughs, Jenny McCarthy told you what you could
really expect when you're expecting. In Baby Laughs and
Life Laughs, she gave you the unfiltered ups and downs of
motherhood and marriage. Now, in Love, Lust & Faking
It, the inveterate truth teller turns the lights on for a
funny, often poignant, and no-holds-barred look at the essence of
relationships: love and sex.
Jenny explores the intensity of first love, introducing us to
Tony, the boy of her teenage dreams, and Tubby, her dirty, sexy
stuffed teddy bear. She takes us on a whirlwind tour of the world
of aphrodisiacs and fetishes, explains the importance of playing
doctor and other nice and naughty fantasies, and gives thanks for
the pleasures of chocolate. And she sets the story straight on
STDs, man junk and lady bits, why we really cheat, why
women are master manipulators, the virtues of sex with the lights
off, the power of a "loving no," the satisfaction of the perfect
booty call, and so much more.
Filled with humorous stories about her own out-rageous
exploitsÂ-from becoming a Playboy Miss October to the pain
of getting a discount boob job to meeting Brad PittÂ-as well as the
lessons she's learned from family, friends, and fans, Love,
Lust & Faking It takes on a subject the sex symbol,
mother, television star, comedian, and divorcÉe can be trusted to
examine with nothing but unvarnished honesty and earthy humor.
Throughout, Jenny reminds us to aim higher, believe in true love,
and, most of all, be kind to ourselves. And to have lots of fun and
sexÂ-without faking it.
