S is for 7 Years Bad Sex by Nicky Wells
\n<\/span><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"seven\"<\/p>\n

Blurb (from Goodreads):<\/strong>\u00a0One wedding. One curse? Disaster ever after\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

A seven-years-bad-sex curse? Surely not! Yet something went wrong when rock singer Casey and drummer Alex got married on that beautiful yacht anchored off St Tropez in the south of France. Something went badly wrong. For even on their wedding night, the young couple discovers a complete and somewhat surprising inability to make love. Muddling through their honeymoon with a string of thin excuses for their predicament, the lovers defer finding a solution (and panicking) until the return to their home in London. After all, they married for life and to make rock music, not for the love of sex. Right?<\/p>\n

But when they resume life as normal in London, all hell breaks loose. Increasingly frantic in their quest for release, the unhappy newlyweds embark on a string of hilarious and occasionally harmful antics that drives them, their band, and an assortment of random strangers to the brink of despair. But it ain\u2019t over \u2018til it\u2019s over or, in this case\u2026 it ain\u2019t over \u2018til the newlyweds sing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other “S” books by the same author – Sophie’s Turn, Sophie’s Run, Sophie’s Encore, and Spirits of Christmas.<\/p>\n
