This book said, "I'm gonna be a smutty Hallmark movie" and held to that level of plot and character development. I didn't find the MCs 100% believable, and they changed their minds so quickly it gave me whiplash. Because of the surface-level development, I wasn't sold on their attraction (sex worker that is now disgusted at the thought of touching other women? Trust-fund socialite that immediately forgets about her lifelong flame?).That being said, the male MC is genuinely sweet, caring, and consent-focused.
There was a lot of bizarrely intro-level sex-positive feminism, including some sections that read as ignorantly anti-kink. Don't go here for nuanced discussions about sex, gender, or class. I don't want to yuck somebody's development, though. This COULD be a good intro for people trying to reckon with negative assumptions about sex work, female pleasure, and porn. I wouldn't recommend it for folks who have done deeper work around sex positivity.
This was a good brain break, and some of the writing was really nice and occasionally funny, but you get what you see (or less?).

Me gustó, es un romance cursi y lleno de clichés pero muy adorable. Y muy *sexy* 😳. También está buena la reflexión y el análisis que Rosie Danan hace sobre la industria pornográfica. Es un libro super sex positive que busca darle una vuelta de tuerca a los temas que trata. Desde mi visión feminista personal, estoy a favor del trabajo sexual siempre que sea con consentimiento y derechos laborales, así que está bueno que haya un contemporary romance que tenga como protagonistas trabajadores sexuales y lo encare con responsabilidad.
