A review by enw_reads
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

5.0

Stella Lane has Aspergers and struggles with social interactions, among other things. Needless to say her dating life is non-existent and even the thought of dating makes her want to hide underneath her desk. But Stella is determined. She wants to get better at sex so she can, hopefully, find a life partner and start the family her parents so very much want her to have. To get better at sex she hires Michael, an escort with a lot of debt and a few secrets but who is exactly the man she needs. This was one of those books that I was highly anticipating and it didn’t disappoint! This is such a fun read and it’s also quite original with the characters, but incredibly steamy! Stella is a really compelling protagonist and Hoang does a wonderful job of showing us who Stella is and how she negotiates a world that isn’t very welcoming to her. I, myself, have a sister with Aspergers, and it’s something that my family deals with on a daily basis, so it was a really interesting book for me to read from an older perspective. This is definitely a “must read” book for the summer!
