This was a romcom that was equal parts cute and steamy! I really wasn’t expecting so much spice! But I love the movie Pretty Woman so this gender swapped retelling was fun. I love all the representation: Asian characters, autistic mc, male sex worker, etc. plus the discussion questions at the end really help to understand the aspects of these representations. It would’ve been a four star read but the last third of the book kind of dragged out due to miscommunication.
