The Intimacy Experiment

Danan’s follow-up to The Roommate finds former sex worker Naomi Grant professionally slaying as CEO of a multi-billionaire-dollar company that aims to help people have better sex, but Naomi is personally unfulfilled. Ethan Cohen is a former physics teacher who’s now the hot young rabbi of a struggling L.A. synagogue. Naomi is looking to pivot into academia, but she needs real-world classroom experience. Ethan’s hoping to build a bridge between faith and intimacy, but lacks the knowledge to make it happen. Enter Modern Intimacy: a seven-part lecture series that guides the plot and transforms an unlikely collaboration between Naomi and Ethan into a burgeoning relationship. Danan excels at imbuing her text with both heart and steam, and the sex-positive, modern spin on faith and intimacy means that Naomi and Ethan’s HEA is fully realized.
