When Someone You Love Is Kinky by Dossie Easton & Catherine A. Liszt – Paperback Guide to Understanding Kink (156 Pages)

“When Someone You Love Is Kinky” is a compassionate, insightful guide for anyone who wants to better understand and support a partner, friend, or loved one exploring kink or non-mainstream sexual desires. Authored by Dossie Easton and Catherine A. Liszt, this 156-page resource blends real compassion with plain language, offering clarity on what kink is, how to communicate about it, and how to maintain trust and intimacy even when desires differ.

Rather than judging, this book builds bridges: it explains common practices like bondage, erotic role-play, kink safety, and BDSM, and uses real-world advice for talking openly, setting boundaries, and growing closeness. Whether you’re “non-kinky” and curious, just beginning to understand your partner’s desires, or simply want better tools for communication, When Someone You Love Is Kinky delivers insight, validation, and practical ways to move forward together.
