“What Lean In did for women in business, Don’t Sleep With Him Yet does for dating. Dr. Lee shows rare insight into the complex challenges today’s women face regarding sex and relationships. Answering questions like why he disappears when things seem to be going fine, Lee explains how single women still mostly allow men to call all the shots. This fascinating book should be required reading for any woman seeking to empower herself in the dating world—and in everyday life. A game-changer.”
— JENNIFER KAUFMAN, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF LITERACY AND LONGING IN LA; FORMER LOS ANGELES TIMES STAFF WRITER
“Displaying unusual intelligence and wit, Don’t Sleep With Him Yet stands alone as a wonderfully inspiring, badass and kick-ass Cosmopolitan meets cool professor!’ By far the best self-help book I’ve read in years.”
— KATIE S., COPY EDITOR
“Lacing her account with eye-opening anecdotes, wisdom and wry humor, Dr. Nancy Lee draws on extensive experience with patients as well as an impressive command of serious research across fields ranging from evolutionary psychology to neuroscience. Lee skillfully presents a savvy psychologist’s insider knowledge as to how men’s minds work, lending timeless truths a current spin that will benefit millennials, Gen Xers and boomers alike. What’s more, Dr. Lee explains how after yielding to social pressures to behave too much like men, many women are presently experiencing, as Lee puts it, ‘hookup fatigue.’ Offering hands-on, invaluable tips, this book seamlessly integrates long-established ways of seeking committed partners, such as the ever-successful blind date, with the latest developments in online dating and expensive matchmaking services. ‘Dignity, self-respect and choice set the tone for all-new female-centric dating.’ A must-read for anyone looking for love.”
— DR ROBERT MARTIN, AUTHOR OF HOW WE DO IT: THE EVOLUTION AND FUTURE OF HUMAN REPRODUCTION; ADJUNCT PROFESSOR UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO AND NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY; EMERITUS CURATOR, FIELD MUSEUM

— DR. MICHELLE COHEN, CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST; RADIO AND PODCAST HOST
“I loved this book. Dr Nancy Lee is an advocate for women’s empowerment, helping women maintain their dignity as they navigate the often confusing world of dating and sex. I wish I had this advice when I was dating in my 20s. I highly recommend this book to women of all ages who want healthy, loving relationships.”
— SANDY WEINER, LIFE COACH; DATING PODCAST HOST
“If you want to stop the cycle of heartbreak and find and keep a long-term partner whose goal is to make you happy, read this book!”
— SAM LEWIS, AUTHOR OF DON’T BE AN IDIOT: THE PYRAMID OF MARITAL SUCCESS
“Completely in step with #MeToo, this book has not only taught me how to identify emotional blackmail, but also how to stop it. Read this book and then pass it along to your ex.”
— GRACE KIM, GRADUATE NEUROSCIENCE STUDIES
“All my girlfriends tell me how ‘lucky’ I am to be engaged to my amazing fiancé. But it has nothing to do with luck. If it weren’t for Dr. Lee, I’d still be kissing some narcissistic jerk-guy’s butt—with nothing to show for it. Dr. Lee nails which guys to avoid at all costs. Read her book.”
— ASHLEY S., LUXURY CONCIERGE SERVICES
“Sexy, edgy and often laugh-aloud funny, Don’t Sleep With Him Yet takes a scary dating scene and turns it on its head. This book has given me more stiletto power than any knockout shoes ever could. Loved the chapter on women’s relation to beauty and the really great tips!”
— RAQUEL RICHARDS, MODEL
“As a psychotherapist devoted to helping people improve relationship quality, I highly recommend Dr. Nancy Lee’s book for anyone seeking a fulfilling romantic connection. Not only does Lee cut right to the chase of what’s truly important, but I was also impressed by her hands-on examples of communications ranging from flirty texts to those dreaded ‘What are we?’ talks. Dr. Lee’s advice won’t just optimize your single life—rather, it will profoundly transform it.”
— BERNARD NATELSON, MBA, PSYD, ABMP, AUTHOR OF OPTIMIZING YOUR SINGLE LIFE: THE LOST ART OF COMMUNICATION
“Finally! A book that doesn’t sugarcoat what’s happening out there in the dating jungle. Most of all, Dr. Lee really wakes you up as to why we women keep settling for crumbs. (The patient with the porn-addicted boyfriend could have been me.) My only regret is that I didn’t have Don’t Sleep With Him Yet ten years ago—it would have spared me a lot of headaches and heartache.”
— JESSICA B., KINDERGARTEN TEACHER
“Dr. Nancy Lee calls out some hard truths about casual hookups that nobody else seems willing to face. As a sexual assault survivor (committed by a ‘friend’ my freshman year of college) I can personally attest that her discussion about the ‘New Rape Culture’ is both brilliant and brave, spot on, compassionate. Most of all, it’s immensely healing.”
— SARAH A., LAW STUDENT
“Well-written and honest, this book relates to any woman from teens on up who has ever shoved aside her own true needs and desires just to ‘fit in’ or accommodate a guy.”
— LUCY K., HIGH SCHOOL GUIDANCE COUNSELOR
“Dr. Nancy Lee’s book has given me the knowledge and tools I needed to put myself back out there after a really nasty divorce. It’s hard to believe I’m actually enjoying myself now, including an involvement with a loving, generous man. Thank you, Dr. Lee, for writing this badass book!”
