Reviews

"A must-have resource for pastoral counselors, pastors to women, directors of women's ministry and anyone who seeks to know more about sexual addiction, particularly as it manifests in women."
*Annie A. Lockhart, YouthWorker Journal, November/December 2010*

"In the first major Christian-published book on the topic, Marnie Ferree blows to bits easy assumptions about who gets addicted and why. Blessedly pratical and deeply biblical, No Stones gives women--and their husbands and counselors--tools to break the cycle and the hope of finding real intimacy."
*Katelyn Beaty, Christianity Today, May 2010*
