Chandler Cohen’s level of job satisfaction hits a low when the author whose book she has ghostwritten doesn’t even recognize her. She’s wanted to finish the book she’s been writing under her own name but there are bills to pay and she’s in demand to write the books of others.
Finn Walsh is an actor who is living off his previous success. He meets Chandler in a bar one night, gives her a made-up name, and the two are instantly connected. The passion is there and they can’t wait to be alone together. Chandler is surprised at how bad a lover Finn is. She sneaks out while Finn is asleep and writes it off as a one-time bad experience.
The next morning she attends a business meeting to discuss her next book assignment and meets her new client – Finn. They agree to work together and it comes out that Chandler didn’t find Finn that good of a lover. As the two begin a tour of conventions that Finn is participating in, Chandler begins writing his book and teaching him the finer art of lovemaking.
There was plenty of humour and practice as the two begin spending time together. As the characters reveal more about themselves, the discussion becomes deeper as they talk about their hopes and dreams for the future. I enjoyed the way they each brought out the best in one another. The chapters are named after the cities they’re visiting on the tour and this brought a fun element to the book. While this book won’t be for everyone, those that enjoy a steamier romantic comedy will be entertained.
I listened to the audiobook version of Business or Pleasure which was narrated by Hathaway Lee who provided an enjoyable performance. I loved her tone and her enthusiasm for this book and would not hesitate in recommending this format.
