It incorporates Christian themes, especially Catholic views on prayer, marriage and family, and chastity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt includes heavy innuendo and discussions of sex, chastity, fertility awareness, and natural family planning, as well as some semi-steamy and fade-to-black love scenes, implied nudity, crude humor, and mild language; however, any explicit spice happens off-page. If it were a movie, it would probably be rated PG-13.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdditionally, please be aware of the following content and depictions, which may be controversial or triggering for some readers: pregnancy and childbirth; women’s health, especially postpartum; body-consciousness; alcoholism; family loss and death; cancer; adoption, legal guardianship and child custody; and parental abandonment. It is my intent to treat these topics with the sensitivity they deserve, and I promise to deliver a HEA in the end.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eBook Club Date: August 8th @ 11am\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Secret Shelves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43060804780130,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/1569\/9810\/files\/IMG-5617.jpg?v=1782411996","url":"https:\/\/mysecretshelves.com\/products\/meet-the-author-book-club-third-ten-marie-veillon","provider":"My Secret Shelves","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
