I am... underwhelmed.
I expected a whole lot out of this, but the MC really irritated me the entire time. She read like a teenager rather than the almost 30 years old she was. I didnt understand why Josh, the male lead, was so enamored with her when she was so bland.
Josh himself was pretty nice, but he talked so much about the MCs boobs it was kind of ridiculous to one point lol.
The sex scenes were great, the tension between the two mcs was palpable and that was good. I however found the sex worker aspect a bit underdeveloped; it seemed to revolve around m/f sex and only one type of sex, nothing about kinks or whatnot. Maybe I'm nitpicking but I thought it would go beyond "typical" porn.
I read this one via audiobook, and the narrator for the female lead was good, the male lead had this habit of speaking in an annoying higher pitched voice for any of the girls which was a bit irritating.
Overall, I really just could not get over the blushing, clueless, quirky, "ive never even looked at porn in my entire life" mc. It's okay to be innocent, but when it gets to the point where you appear like a caricature rather than an actual character, it just feels really really awkward.
Would read the next book though, as I really like the female lead that it's about.

I remember enjoying reading this book last year, but literally 0% of the plot stuck to me
I hated everything about this book, including the fact that it took me 2 months to finish and no romance book has ever taken me more than a week to finish, which just shows how bad I think this was. I will cut it some slack, though, because I was in a reading slump, probably the worst one so far.

Very entertaining read. Male porn star sharing a rental house with a paranoid, uptight, relatively naive woman - just screams sexual stress. With plenty of side characters, such as the ex- girlfriend/also porn star friend; the life-long friend that only thinks of himself; the grungy, icky porno big boss; the understanding aunt that runs a PR firm; and lots of others characters that makes for an interesting read.
