EBUZZ: The Fifth Favor by Shelby Reed

The Fifth Favor by Shelby Reed was recommend to me by the oh so fab karens and it really is a good read. summary from site: Imagine a world where a woman's every pleasure, every wish and wildest fantasy is granted by the man of her dreams. Such is Avalon, an elite, private club in Washington, D.C., that caters solely to female desires. There, magazine reporter Billie Cort meets Adrian, the club's most infamous companion, with the intent to interview him for an article on high-dollar male escorts. Billie can't foresee, however, how quickly Adrian will strip her defenses and expose her true desires and in the process, fulfill his own yearning for love. Yes this goes back to my curiosity with sex workers and my love of the novel Fallen from Grace by Laura Leone. Billie and Adrian both read like real people, with what could be real lives, while trying to make the best of the cards they were dealt. I don't think this has the emotional punch of FfG and there are quite a few points that are the same in both books but there are enough differences that I didn't start to compare the two until after I was finished reading TFF. Reed has an great voice and handles a difficult and oddish romance plot well. This is a great introduction to her and I look forward to reading more of her work. read the excerpt Next Shelby Reed: Holiday Inn
