Klappentext

Travel to the glittering city of Las Vegas, pull back the curtain on a nine-year marriage, and feel pleasure and desire pulsing. Lover isn't your typical poetry collection. It's fun, flirty, and tender-hearted. The emotional depth of poetry meets the faster pace of a spicy, romance story. Where vulnerability shines bright against the backdrop of luxury hotels, decadent meals, and awe-inspiring landscapes. Lover is the exploration of love, longing, and embodied pleasure. From loud Vegas glamour to quiet moments in front of a mirror and an inspiring trip to Red Rock Canyon, these poems tell the story of a woman's desire for deep connection with herself and the man she's always wanted. With clear and simple prose, Gloria Herdt vulnerably shares how it feels to find beauty, pleasure, and love in a place she never planned to be. Far from routine, her marriage takes a different shape and there's space for sensual intimacy and self-reflection. Letting go of the past might be easier from a distance. Or maybe it's just more fun to discover her sexiest, most confident self in Las Vegas. In a city where everything is welcome and more is always better, what will the heart want most?
