Synopsis

What’s a girl to do when she’s going broke?Sarai Emery lost her job as a radio disc jockey when a heated breakup with her wealthy drug dealer boyfriend was accidentally broadcast live. With the sudden loss of income, she goes from living it up to giving it up for cash when she meets a stranger who promises her a steady income working for a high-society escort service. With thoughts of dodging the repo-man, past due bills, an impending eviction, and a bill from the nursing home that cares for her Alzheimer’s-afflicted father fresh on her mind, Sarai feels she has no choice but to plunge into a world where the line that separates sex and money is blurred beyond recognition. When she meets the man of her dreams, will she come clean about how she’s been paying her bills, or will her low-down, dirty secrets rise to the top on their own?

Goodreads review by Diana

Sometimes, street fiction starts out so good and then towards the middle to end, it just falls apart. This book was no exception to that rule. The ending(s) were lame, unrealistic, sappy, and just unbelievable. I was too done with it after the main character got her man back even though he knew what......more
