The Intimacy Experiment (2021)

Naomi and Ethan teach a seminar on modern intimacy, then discover that having a syllabus does not make their own developing relationship predictable. Her experience in sex education and his work as a rabbi bring different kinds of public scrutiny to private attraction. Danan is especially interesting on the gap between explaining trust and risking it. This is a tender, explicit romance about faith and stigma, with professional confidence that leaves plenty still to learn.
