Nina Hartley and her friends present sexy, common sense suggestions for keeping monogamous relationships interesting and intimate. A lot of this seems obvious but sometimes those are the things most easily overlooked: communicate, share mutual respect, take time, enjoy kissing, nurture a sense of being cared for, etc. Shayla LaVeaux and her real-life husband, Anthony, discuss their own relationship (which seems unlikely to be considered at all monogamous) and then make beautiful love for the camera. Then Nina and her dread-wearing friend, Runninghorse, discuss how sex and intimacy are more than just penetration and how great it felt for him to be sexual with her even though his penis became camera-shy. Finally, Nina and Joel Lawrence are very convincing as a married couple rediscovering their pre-child sensuality and spontaneity, even exploring a bit of nasty talk. Its "real life" feel falters slightly when Joel pulls a standard "cum on her ass" maneuver rarely seen outside of porn tapes.
