A guide to love, sex, and intimacy beyond the limits of conventional monogamy, from a relationship and sex educator and influencer with a growing platform.

Fantastic. Full to the brim with practical tips and well-researched guidance, this is a comprehensive handbook for the realities of managing multiple relationships - PAUL BRUNSON, author and MAFS dating expert

Warm, relatable, and informed AF - MEGAN JAYNE CRABBE, author and presenter

The Non-Monogamy Playbook is the handbook for anyone curious about consensual non-monogamy - polyamory and open relationships.

This is a practical, joyful guide to the rules of non-traditional relationships. It uncovers the long history of non-monogamy and explores why society today still favours monogamous, heteronormative relationships as the gold standard.

Ruby weaves in her own relationship learnings with humour and empathy, and offers empowering tools for dealing with the complexities - and joys - of polyamory. She provides expert but sisterly advice on setting boundaries and cultivating self-compassion, as well as ways to navigate the myriad practical considerations of sustaining multiple relationships.

The Non-Monogamy Playbook shows us that there's joy in having multiple people in your life (platonic, sexy, romantic), but with each connection there is added vulnerability. This is the ultimate modern guide to non-monogamy, helping you create confident, healthy relationships.
