I'll warn potential readers that there is one semi-consensual scene in this book. It's at the very beginning and is the very first sex scene in the book. After that point the scenes are consensual between our two main characters. It could be argued that Gabi is only performing the sex out of fear of being deported, but if I'd say that this is only the case in the very, very beginning with the first oral scene in the car.All in all, I loved this novella. It's short, sweet, and to the point with nice and steamy sex scenes. Even better than that are the growing emotions between Gabi and Ben. I'll admit that the short story length is a bit of a disability at times, as the relation might have been propelled along faster than would otherwise seem rational. However this is a wish fulfillment sort of tale so that's easily overlooked.Another warning that I'd give to readers is that Gabi's background story remains part of the background. It's more something to explain why she'd enter into this situation and why she'd initially put up with this despite this not being her "thing" at first. On a side note, this might make it more difficult for some to read given that scenarios like this do happen in various formats in the sex trade industry. So if you think that you might have an issue with this, you might want to try another book.The writing here is also pretty good and while I was reading this I couldn't help but think that this is the type of story that Fifty Shades of Grey really wanted to be. I definitely recommend it over FSOG as a serious erotica read. I'm interested enough in reading the next entry, that's for certain.
