Delightfully hot with a heavy feminist lean and plenty of plot. Almost too much plot? Characters were well-crafted and tangible.

I liked the idea of this book, the execution just wasn't it for me. I felt like there was forced chemistry there. In the beginning there was no swoon, no comedy and nothing interesting about the characters. The most interesting part of this was Josh being a porn star and honestly that wasn't all that interesting, it didn't really add angst like I was hoping it would. Overall its a good book if you're into Give it a try if you like: forced proximity, shy girl + experienced guy, sex positivity.

cute and a little spicy :) i enjoyed reading the book, though it was nothing special... what i really liked however, was the portrayal of sex work and adult performers as actual multi-facetted human beings; the book challenged a lot of the bias against sex workers and talked about different issues within the industry - according to the acknowledgments at the end of the book the author also had someone with first hand experience in the field advising her in the writing process, which i appreciate :)
