A review by jedipancake
Preferential Treatment by Heather Guerre
5.0
I am still trying to process how much I loved this book. This is a stand-alone novel featuring some transactional sex (it is mildly linked to the previous book in the series). It features a billionaire of Russian descent. After a brief interaction with one of his employees, a 30-year old woman who is struggling financially and grew up in poverty, he proposes to pay her a lot of money to fulfill his femdom fantasies.
One of the most surprising aspects of this book is the discussions about whether billionaires should even exist, as the female main character has a lot of feelings about this. I found those discussions surprisingly well-balanced and realistic.
For anyone worried about the potential grossness of a billionaire paying a struggling woman for sex, I feel like this book really avoided those pitfalls. The male main character is really desperate to give her all the money, gifts, and orgasms she can possibly take, so in a lot of ways, it feels like she has all the power (which is both of their kinks, so it works out). I also love how the female main character was more than willing to spend his money without feeling bad about it. It was a refreshing change from all the martyrdom a lot of heroines seem to suffer from. She strikes a really interesting balance between being openly materialistic and also trying to bankrupt the hero through charitable giving.
Also, the sex scenes are so amazingly good. I don't know how graphic I can get here, but especially if you're into descriptions of male pleasure....phew.
All in all, this books scratches a lot of itches I didn't know I had. Heather Guerre is putting out so many books that feel very different from anything else on the romance market right now, and I cannot wait to read more!
I received an ARC from the author, but the review is my own opinion.
