I have to say, first of all, that when I read the title of the book I totally shuddered and thought "What have I gotten myself into?". Then, I started reading. The book is written in "twitterspeak" in a way that girlfriends would text each other or write to each other on twitter or facebook. That is important to take note of, when beginning this book.The plot, though, is very interesting. "Hooker-spies" trained by the CIA... It's not really anything I've read about before. I did enjoy the story. There are not only sexual themes to the book, but also psychological themes of womens' power over men and the idea of embracing your difference, as a woman, to take what you want in life. To make your life your own. It was a very different book than I had first imagined.The characters are well-thought-out and I enjoyed the relationships that grew throughout the "hooker-spy" training. It was a wild ride and a great escape from reality. I look forward to the next book.On a minor note- I did suggest that the author get the book edited in the near future. But there are not too many egregious errors, when you take into account the "twitterspeak" that the book is written in.
