The owner of a luxury lounge pretends to be one of the exotic dancers hired for a wild birthday party after he notices one of the guests being rudely rebuffed by one of the actual entertainers. A slightly awkward start (darn cuff links) turns into a steamy, slightly exhibitionist seduction of a woman who turns out to be one of the richest socialites in the city.

Aghast and embarrassed she's been deceived, Greta gives Francis the what's what and leaves him behind. But, she's also incredibly drawn to the man who both ignited her blood and her brain.

I highlighted so many passages and was laughing out loud throughout this story, not to mention how many times I yelled FUCK YES when Brett deftly skewered the patriarchy and fatphobia.

A wonderfully funny and deliciously steamy debut novella from one of my favorite bookstagrammers, Esme Brett is a new romance author to keep YOUR Eyes On!

I received an ARC from the author for review. Thank you Esme!
