Simon & Schuster

Publishing Excellence in Sexual Wellness

Simon & Schuster’s distribution network is one of the most trusted pipelines in North American bookselling — and that reach extends directly to the adult-education titles stocked at Phareros. Through its distribution partnership with Skyhorse Publishing (in effect since 2019), Simon & Schuster brings to market a range of frank, approachable sexuality guides written by credentialed authors and sex educators. These are professionally edited, cleanly designed paperbacks — the kind you’d find face-out at an independent bookstore’s wellness section — not throwaway novelty titles. They treat readers as intelligent adults seeking practical, shame-free information.

What You’ll Find: Titles and Topics

–

Technique and Pleasure Guides

: Titles like The Little Black Book of Sex Positions by Jennifer and Dan Baritchi deliver illustrated, step-by-step guidance on expanding a couple’s repertoire — presented with humor, clear diagrams, and genuine attention to mutual pleasure.

–

Oral Sex Education

: Oral Sex for Every Body by Tina Robbins is exactly the kind of straightforward, inclusive how-to that the Simon & Schuster distribution model does well: concise, informative, and accessible to readers at any experience level.

–

Tantric and Mindful Sexuality

: The Ultimate Guide to Tantric Sex by Guillermo Ferrara brings a more contemplative dimension — covering breathing, meditation, yoga for lovers, sensual massage, and advanced tantric practices — for readers interested in the intersection of sexuality and mindfulness.

Editorial Standards and Presentation

–

Professionally Edited and Fact-Checked

: Every title in the Simon & Schuster distribution catalog goes through a full editorial process. Authors are subject-matter authorities — certified sex educators, therapists, or researchers — and manuscripts are edited to the standards expected of a major trade publisher.

–

Clean, Shelf-Ready Packaging

: These books are designed to be readable reference texts, not novelty items. Cover design is tasteful, type is legible, and illustrations (where included) are instructional rather than gratuitous — making them comfortable gifts as well as personal guides.

–

Inclusive Framing

: Recent titles reflect a deliberate shift toward inclusive language and gender-neutral guidance, acknowledging a broad spectrum of bodies, orientations, and relationship structures.

Why These Books Belong on Your Shelf

There is a persistent gap between the clinical language of academic sexual health resources and the breathless hyperbole of most popular “spice up your relationship” content. Simon & Schuster’s distributed sexuality titles occupy the productive middle ground: practical enough to be genuinely useful, written well enough to be a pleasure to read, and credentialed enough to be trusted. For readers who want to expand their knowledge — whether they’re exploring a new technique, deepening intimacy with a partner, or simply curious — these guides deliver.

The Publisher Behind the Shelf

A century-old publisher whose catalog includes Hemingway, Catch-22, and countless landmark works in self-help and wellness does not lend its distribution chain to books it is not confident in. Simon & Schuster’s presence on the spine (or in the ISBN barcode) is a quiet signal that the content has been held to a professional standard. At Phareros, these eight titles represent the accessible, authoritative end of adult sexuality education — books that inform as much as they inspire.
