This was a alright read June 11, 2008 I thought this book would be real hot--don't get me wrong its a good read but I expected more.
WOW!!!! May 26, 2008 Miasha has done it again. This book was hot!!! So many twists and turns throughout the whole book I never knew what to expect next. It's a book that I would definitely recommend to all those out there looking for a good read
Twist and Turns as Usual from Miasha May 22, 2008 This definitely gives you a one clear view of the sex trade. It doesn't go into detail of the mechanics behind the actual "business" but it is written in a way to put you there visually. Just like "Diary of a Mistress" by Miasha, this book has its own twists to send you on a ride; you don't see the twists coming. Doesn't take long to read this one either. It is definitely a must-read and will make a good book for book clubs to discuss.
