So entertaining, I had trouble putting it down! Of course, I don't think this is a close to realistic account of what it's like running a gay escort service (no matter how much I wanted it to be because I had so much fun reading about it). For those who like more meaning in their books- Isa K skillfully weaves witty dialogue with poignant moments of introspection that touches on how one's expectations alter the way we perceive and interact. But forget all that- it's just a fun book! The story of Harry, the jaded "madame" with a heart o' gold, and his boys is in equal parts outrageous, hilarious and also touching and even a little heart-wrenching. This book was packed full of interesting characters. Harry was the Pimp with a huge heart, who could also Dom you sooo hard, yet was a twink inside! Whaaa??? He is like an onion...many layers! He was like a big uhh, bear, who wanted to cuddle and protect everyone around him. Or beat you into submission! Whatever you need!The language in this book is very straight forward with no apologies. Each character grows on you as many of their individual stories are revealed.There is no feel good romance here, but it is a good read. Oh, and the sex was hot!
What do You think about The Condor (2013)?
Kinda enjoyed it. Certainly very readable, just not sure it's one of my favorites.
