“Tinamarie’s got her lips on the pulse of modern sexuality… from a number of interesting camera angles. She does her research, from science journals and sacred texts to girlfriend gossip and what sounds suspiciously like her own personal diaries, and pulls it all together in that grab-bag way I’ve come to recognize as the uncensored feminine mind: wide-ranging, all-inclusive, endlessly curious and sealed with a wink. If you want to know how women are thinking about sex, she’s got the goods.” David Cates, Founder DeepMasculine.com
“What a prolific blending of the sexual and the spiritual you’ve authored here. Truth be told, I just want to rest my head in your maidenly lap and soak in your idyllic energy. Amen!” Bryan

“Tinamarie, You never cease to amaze me with your wit and wisdom. You inspire me to write and love and learn.

Thank you again for who you are and what you stand for. All the power to you and to all of us who honour ourselves, with all our frailties as human Beings.” Kelley S.

“Tinamarie is not your usual writer. Aside from the informational and entertainment value of her writings, you may get a sense that her words spring from a place deep and precious – a place teeming with integrity, kindness, and reverence for humanity. Tinamarie’s words can bounce with lightness and humor, or provoke you to reach for your own truths. Not to be missed! Pam Babbitt, Founder, SexCoaching.com
Regardless the emphasis you put on the words “Modern Love Muse”, the musings of Tinamarie embody the meaning behind them. Her contemplations reflect the genius or powers characteristic of a poet. You can feel her words are filled with a passion that is of today, for today. She is modern. She is loving. She is definitely a muse. I, for one, cherish her for that and for who she is as revealed to her readers. Mark L.

“My wife and I have a healthy relationship both in the bedroom and out of the bedroom. We wanted to enhance our communication in intimate settings. Tinamarie assured us we weren’t alone and coached us with some simple solutions. Immediately, we felt as if there was a weight lifted off our shoulders. The pressures were relieved and we’ve been able to add a new dynamic to our relationship. Things are definitely more spicy now and we are enjoying the more risque-ness of our intimacy.
