The debut novel of an Australian author & such an incredibly authentic book that had me crying over a quote before I read the book then crying again finishing it. The only book where I’ve literally begged the author to sell me a copy (after it sold out on Amazon) after reading a review featuring a quote that had me obsessing, crying and sending it to people. So grateful I got this signed copy from Momo (thank you once again if you see this). 

A very realistic portrayal of the Australian sex industry, how sex workers are treated, and how sex workers often feel. Authentic, sometimes almost too authentic, that I wanted to yell, scream, cry, and tell off characters abusing our main character ahaha I even had a little rant after reading about Luca’s stunt he pulled (still fuming over that). I love all of our sex worker baddies, they feel so real, I feel I’ve known these women. 

On a side note, as a found family enthusiast and a person that grew up with a complex family, I relate a lot to our main character and I loved seeing her path her own way, work towards her goals and ACHIEVE THEM! I feel like I don’t get to see enough of my characters achieve what they were seeking so I appreciate that. It’s inspiring, it’s motivating. 


Also, I love the cute little chapter titles that are song titles, great taste in music, really adds to the book :) 

One of few books that made me feel seen as a person and to that I’m incredibly grateful. I wish more books like this existed and more people read books like this. You did an amazing job Momo Chavez. I hope to see more books from you 🤍
