"This enlightening work investigates the history, incidence, and causes of a unique sexual lifestyle pursued by increasing numbers of couples. The most common terms used to describe it are 'hotwife/cuckold lifestyle.' This sexual practice, a form of sexual nonmonogamy, is distinguished from swinging and polyamory in that the husband rarely seeks sexual contact outside the marriage except for participation in group sex with his wife and other men, while the wife is permitted, and often encouraged, to pursue unrestrained sexual encounters with other men. The author includes interviews and comments from couples living the lifestyle throughout the United States and presents the stories in an attempt to determine the history of this sexual practice and evolutionary underpinnings of this uncommon and socially taboo behavior in an effort to make it more comprehensible to those engaged in the lifestyle and those who are just curious." -- page 4 of cover.

A “hot, hilarious, and engrossing” porn star memoir. “Akira is the Galileo of women’s sexuality” (Alissa Nutting, author of Unclean Jobs for Women and Girls). After earning a good living by stripping and working as a dominatrix at a sex dungeon, Asa Akira built up a reputation for being one of the most popular, hardworking, and extreme actors in the porn business, winning dozens of awards for her 330+ movies, including her #1 bestselling series “Asa Akira Is Insatiable.” In Insatiable, Akira recounts her extraordinary life in chapters that are hilarious, shocking, and touching. In a wry, conversational tone, she talks about her experiences shoplifting and doing drugs while in school, her relationship with other porn stars (she is married to one) and with the industry at large, and her beliefs about women and sexuality. Insatiable is filled with Akira’s unusual and often highly amusing anecdotes, including her visit to a New Hampshire sex shop run by a mother and son. One of very few articulate voices writing from the inside, Akira has something important, controversial, and astonishingly interesting to say about sex and its central role in our lives and culture. “Akira is not only passionate about the porn industry, she is shameless, funny and even endearing.” —Susannah Cahalan, New York Post, Best Books of the Year “Each chapter is filled with brutal honesty and self-deprecating humor. It’s touching, inspiring, and flies in the face of a lot of people’s preconceptions about the life of an adult film star.” —Vice “Her book is a lot like her porn: raw, brutal and always unflinching.” —Salon.com

THE MOST TALKED ABOUT BOOK OF THE YEAR ''As filthy as it is funny, you won''t be able to put it down'' Dolly Alderton ''Extremely funny, touching and wonderfully refreshing on women and sexual desire'' Marian Keyes ''You will be intoxicated by this witty and honest exploration of female desire'' Elle ''Insatiable is a story about loneliness and trying to fit in, about our desire to be loved and included, how it''s easy to confuse being wanted with being used. It''ll draw people in with the shagging, but people will stay because they''re rooting for Violet.'' Evening Standard Stuck in a dead-end job, broken-hearted, broke and estranged from her best friend: Violet''s life is nothing like she thought it would be. She wants more - better friends, better sex, a better job - and she wants it now. So, when Lottie - who looks like the woman Violet wants to be when she grows up - offers Violet the chance to join her exciting start-up, she bites. Only it soon becomes clear that Lottie and her husband Simon are not only inviting Violet into their company, they are also inviting her into their lives. Seduced by their townhouse, their expensive candles and their Friday-night sex parties, Violet cannot tear herself away from Lottie, Simon or their friends. But is this really the more Violet yearns for? Will it grant her the satisfaction she is so desperately seeking? Insatiable is about women and desire - lust, longing and the need to be loved. It is a story about being unable to tell whether you are running towards your future or simply running away from your past. The result is at once tender and sad, funny and hopeful. * ''This novel shines with dark humour, sharp intelligence, sizzling sex scenes, and a piercing portrayal of loneliness. Not even the most insatiable reader could ask for more.'' Katherine Heiny ''Filthy, funny, and raw, Insatiable is utterly addictive'' Louise O''Neill ''Come for the absolute filth and stay for the empathetic and sensitive way that Daisy Buchanan writes about all the chaos and conflict of being a young woman in a hard-edged, hard-faced world.'' Red ''A piercing insight into the unreal demands modern women place on themselves and told with real humour and energy, we love this book so much'' Stylist ''A raucous unravelling of female desire and bodily pleasures, in all their maddening complexity'' Emma Jane Unsworth ''Few books out in the early half of the year are as flat-out entertaining as Buchanan''s fizzy, filthy story of a young woman''s sexual awakening.'' i paper ''I''d call Insatiable Jilly Cooper for the Instagram generation, but that wouldn''t do this book justice'' Lauren Bravo ''Daisy brings characters to life like no other writer, pumping them full of humour, vulnerability and sexy sexy sex'' Lucy Vine ''Gloriously rude and brave about the nature of women''s desire'' Sophia Money-Coutts ''I raced through this funny, filthy and utterly compelling debut about female sexuality, ambition and vulnerability... I''m still thinking about it long after turning the final page.'' Daily Mail ''I can''t believe this is a fiction debut - she writes stories like she''s been doing it for fifty years'' Laura Jane Williams ''Insatiable is an unashamedly filthy and yet deeply sensitive exploration of female desire, aspiration and vulnerability, and Daisy is an exciting new voice in contemporary fiction.'' Hannah Beckerman ''It reminded me of Bridget Jones''s Diary - if Bridget were bisexual and Daniel Cleaver were a couple who were into group sex.'' Julie Cohen ''Erica Jong for the Instagram age.'' Keith Stuart ''Intelligent, observant prose that gives a snap-shot of life experienced by millennial women.'' Kate Sawyer ''Like going for a drink with your wisest and smuttiest friend'' Jessica Moor ''Funny, filthy ... Buchanan offers astute social observation, while the development of Violet as an ardent yet vulnerable heroine to root for makes her a millennial counterpart to Jilly Cooper''s Bella or Octavia.'' The Sunday Times
