I hired a male escort to fix my romance novel. It was supposed to be professional. My debut novel is getting published. Mostly. My editor loves the plot. Loves the voice. Loved the twist in chapter fourteen enough to text me about it at eleven PM. What he does not love—what he delivered with devastating, surgical kindness—are the intimate scenes. Apparently, they read like someone who learned about kissing from an encyclopedia. In my defense: I’ve been divorced for eight years. I haven’t dated since the first iPhone. And my ex-husband spent eleven of those years making sure I forgot...

It wasn’t the fact that his father was very wealthy and, now, so was my young friend. He was prepared for that.

You’re the only one I can trust and the only one who can help me.”
