5 Star Review
ARC received from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review

Charlotte is a successful divorce lawyer in line for partner at her firm. Work is pretty much all her life but she decides to hire Ryker as her fake fiancé to further her chances of not being overlooked ...

Ryker has instant chemistry with Charlie & he can see their arrangement going long term - definetly past the 1 yr agreement they decided on.

Loved these two characters - they balance each other perfectly & when true love hits them both they realize what they really wanted all along was each other ❤️❤️

This novel was thoroughly pleasing to myself. I found it to be quite fulfilling in terms of its content. It ticks all the boxes for novels of its genre and the author did an amazing job in terms of engaging with the audience ( the readers). I absolutely loved it and I am sure that other consumers out there will absolutely enjoy it.
In my opinion this novel will be very popular with fans and will appeal to a broad range of audiences even possibly some of which are not usually interested in this genre of novel.It really hits close to home as my son has Aspergers so that was a very interesting factor this novel that allowed me to further enjoy this novel.

This is not a conventional love story,it looks at two people with different reason for being damaged. I love that it hits on a issue we have heard a lot about, Autism. It shows you can overcome a lot if you finally find someone who can get past your hang ups. The sensuality is on every page,and it's sizzling. A most read.

This book is off the charts sexy. I liked Ryker and his love for Charlotte. This is more like insta-sex than insta-love, and I have to wonder about Charlotte's rep as a woman with Aspergers, and his as a Latinx man...but...if you're just looking for a hot, steamy read, this delivers.

This story was full of so many issues that by the end I felt I knew Charlotte and Ryker better than my best friends. The author does a great job of going into detail on how certain anomalies affect our jobs and personal lives. I may not have the same problems as Charlotte, but I do have many autoimmune diseases and appreciate the way the author delicately dealt with this topic. These topics are rarely mentioned in books and so enjoyed reading the truth that illnesses are full of ups and downs. Also proves the statement that it’s not what happens in your life so much as how you handle it.

Wow. wasnt expecting this to be so good!! Thoroughly enjoyed Ryker ans Charlie's story.
Stories about exotic dancers or gigolos aren't my cup of tea but this one hands down had me hooked from the first page.
It's a beautiful story worth the reading time.

Aww! I really enjoyed this story! You don't come across a book very often that has main character who displays a condition like Aspbergers, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading how Charlie dealt with the complexities of a relationship.
I wasn't sure if I would like Ryker at the beginning, but I really warmed up to him and their relationship was lovely.
There wasn't a huge amount of plot, and truthfully the sex scenes - well they kind of dragged a little! I think the scene could have been set with half the amount of pages of description.
Overall though, I hugely enjoyed this book and would happily read the previous stories in the series.

The Best Yet

Two flawed people stumble their way into a marriage of convenience relationship in this third installment of Micah Persell’s Sin City Gigolos series. Flawed in remarkably different ways, a reader usually picks one side or the other, but Micah crafts a tale in which you are equally rooting for both Charlotte and Ryker. She touches on a variety of sensitive subjects–Asperger’s, adoption, foster care–while each page crackles with sexual tension.

I’ve been a fan of Ms. Persell’s for a number of years, but this book, with its relevant subject matter and hot, hot, hot sex scenes, is her best effort to date. I hope this series continues and that all the gigolos in Sin City find their best matches.

Oh my, what a lovely book. Although it is listed as erotica, and there is plenty of steam, this book has more heart than a lot of more commercial romances. The main characters, Charlotte and Ryker, are both decent, well-meaning people, with obvious strengths and weaknesses. The story is about how they get together, and although idealized (it is a novel, after all), it does not depend on artifice and feels real.

Charlotte is a lawyer with Asperger’s Syndrome, and Ryker is a gigolo. They should have nothing in common, but they do. They agree to a marriage of convenience, where they are friends but have no romantic illusions, keeping emotion out of their marriage. Charlotte wants to make partner at her firm, Ryker wants a family, and they each think that the other will suit.

I don’t want to give spoilers, and I won’t, but you will enjoy this book. There is no stupid angst; the conflicts grow out of the personalities of the characters, instead of being plot devices with no grounding. The sex scenes, and they are many, are both hot and tasteful at the same time, and how often can you say that about a book?
I highly recommend this book, and I am going to read Persell’s first two books in this series as well.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.
