When young executive Brad Fairchild and beautiful hooker Ginger meet in the crowded atmopsphere of The Libation Station, neither knows they’re about to have the night of their lives…and many days and nights thereafter, as well as complete chaos. Brad’s always envied the freedom women have to express their individuality in their clothes, make-up, etc., and Ginger resents the fact that the economy prevented her from using her Columbia University degree in business and forcing her to become a high-priced courtesan. With the help of a good-intentioned guardian angel who's still new on the job but wants desperately to help Brad’s identity crisis, they wake up after a night of complete sexual bliss to discover……they’re each other.Brad now inhabits Ginger’s body and for all extents and purposes Ginger is now physically Brad. When Apprentice Angel First Class Suzi appears to the two and explains what happened, she also lets them know things can be reversed. At the  upcoming winter solstice, they can become their true selves again…if they wish to. In the meantime, the two decide to indulge their curiosity about how the other half lives and loves. They even manage to bluff it out at Brad’s workplace where he’s just gotten a promotion. Eventually Ginger lets her best friend Amber in on the switch, and when Amber and Brad’s best friend Lew fall for each other, Lew becomes another keeper of the secret.It’s not all fun and games, however, for Brad and Ginger are in for some deadly business dealings, including a more than lethal brush with a white slavery ring, a new business to set up, a wedding to attend, and the upcoming solstice when a very important decision has to be made…A funny premise which manages to take on serious overtones.  I wasn’t certain what to expect when I began reading this, but author Dawning has made the tale entertaining with just enough drama to keep it from being a farce.Since the story’s told from both Brad and Ginger’s POV, it was sometimes difficult to keep the viewpoints straight but once that was settled, the tale went smoothly. Kudos to Dee Dawning for another entertaining novel.
