520 1 $a"Lydia Beaucoup and Acey Allen are two childhood friends who've grown up to become successful midcareer professionals. But having reached forty, their career success is matched by their romantic and sexual dissatisfactions. They hatch a plan to turn the world's oldest profession on its head: why not develop a new business aimed at meeting the intimate needs of black women, in an environment that's discreet, safe, and most important, completely focused on their pleasure? Thus is born the idea for A Sister's Spa - a "full-service" facility that supplies handsome black men willing and able to fulfill their clientele's every desire. Launching the enterprise is a struggle even as their delighted customer base grows, they face attacks from grandstanding church and community leaders, hostile media, and other conniving parties." "From the most dignified black church in Oakland to the racks of Loehmann's to the skyscraping executive suites of San Francisco, Sexual Healing is a comedy of outraged manners for the 21st century, a penetrating examination of sexual and racial politics, and a hilariously frank and forthright exploration of what women really want."--BOOK JACKET.
