Dr. Grant Cross is the hot, grumpy surgeon who makes my job hell… and my first client as a brand-new escort.
I can get along with anyone—except him. One of the most prominent pediatric plastic surgeons in the country, he terrifies the other residents, the nurses despise him, and his bedside manner sucks.
I want nothing to do with him.
When he puts me on retainer to sleep with him and only him, though, the money is too good to pass up. The deal is simple: I sleep with him, he pays me, and neither of us get feelings.
Sleeping with Grant is surprisingly fun and intimate, and with his pediatric fellowship at risk due to his lack of interpersonal skills, I vow to teach Grant how to be more likable, and see a whole new side of him.
Stephanie writes spicy, hilarious rom-coms. Her books feature sharp banter, stubborn women, lots of laughs, and guaranteed HEA’s. She lives in Vancouver, Canada.
She's an "escort" but he pays for sex 🤨🤔 sounds like prostitution 🙂↕️ and since when is it right to write about it (romantically)?Why would you fall in love with someone who pays you for sex?
What on earth has happened to my used to be favorite authors this year?! The last two books in Vancouver Storm were so mid. With a weird don’t let the woman finish during first sex scene fetish in BOTH. And now we have a SINGLE POV (ew) novel about a doctor who’s also an … escort. And the hero is the kind of man who pays a woman for sex? Literally we are almost halfway through 2026 and I’m just sad at the current reading choices my favs have been producing. Maybe I just need to give up and stop reading.
Even though I designed this cover, I’m still rating the book because I had such a good time!! I loved Grant and Linden. He fell first and super duper hard and that’s what I want to see!! I was a little suspect of an MMC who would sign up for an app like this, but it all makes sense in the end folks. I would read 100 more pages of them. I’m ready for a possible sequel with a certain icy blonde doctor??
Romanticizing prostitution on 2026? After Trump and everything related to Epstein files still being a global issue? I am sorry but you can’t hide PATRIARCHY under a cute cover. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
