Publisher's summary

This is a short Novella about Lilly Peters who was a doctor by day and an escort by night. She was on her own at a very young age and had to put herself through medical school, but when her grandmother took ill, she needed money for her care. She had heard through the hospital intern grapevine about being an escort for very rich influential men and jumped at the chance. What she didn't know was how much she would enjoy having sex for money. She liked her men to give her gifts...and guess what? They did!

Everything was going at an easy pace when some of the other escorts were roughed up pretty bad, and no one seemed to know why. By this time she had changed her lifestyle from second-rate to first-rate. She loved her luxurious condo and outstanding wardrobe and the fact that she could pay all her bills and still have money in the bank. She was financially secure, but very unhappy.

As things got worse and one of her favorite lovers was murdered she had to make a choice. Would she go back to her dream of becoming a great doctor or choose having sex for money? You will be surprised by her decision because she was!

It was just OK.

I felt like the story was a little disjointed, the first half of the book was decent, but the last half seamed like details about Lilly were thrown in or added at the last minute. I realize that it's a short story but it was to short for they way the characters backgrounds were developed. Also the narration brought it down a little for me, at times it was difficult to tell which person was talking.

Enjoyable

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Despite not being a lover of this genre, I really enjoyed this book. I loved the main character and I found it really interesting how she enjoys both of her professions (escorting and medicine) and the dichotomy between the two. I enjoyed the mystery involved in this novel and I liked the ending.

Far from reality, but a great listen!

I really enjoyed this short story. It is so unbelievable in the premise, of a doctor being a call girl. The story moved along well and had some surprising twists. I liked the suspense that was in the book. Far from reality but a great listen is the best way to sum up this book.

This was a short, steamy listen.

I do not usually like to read short novella length works. When I buy a book, I want “more for my buck!” But this was a short, steamy listen. It is so difficult to give enough background for full characterization in a short novella, but the main character was reasonably fleshed out.

The story was pretty far from reality, and the blackmail, murder mystery element seemed to come out of nowhere. The second half seemed harder to track. The ending was quite unbelievable. It seemed a reasonable story while I was listening, but after the fact, I find I cannot remember it much. I guess maybe I should stick to novel length stories!

The narration was fine.

This book was given to me free for an honest review. Thank you.

saturated

The audio was distracting with an echo and the story was, for me, over saturated. OK I know that the genre is erotica and it is erotic but there is an old saying... that even the best chocolate in excess is too much. Just my humble opinion.

Great Narration and Story. Loved it!!

Would you consider the audio edition of Guilty Pleasures to be better than the print version?

I'd say so. The audible edition makes a good listening experience.

Entertaining Noir Story

This was an intriguing story about a doctor who becomes an escort on the side, initially to pay the bills, and finds that she enjoys the lifestyle as a way to offset the stress of her day job. The story becomes a little convoluted and dark with drug dealing, beatings, blackmail, and murders mixed in, but overall it was an interesting and entertaining story. The narration was good and really brought the characters out.

Good Story and wasn't what I expected

I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator.

I found the first part of this story better than the 2nd part. The story itself was good with a bit of a mystery, however, the 2nd part, I couldn't tell which character they were portraying. I had to rewind a few times to re-listen.
There were some gaps in the story that at some points found it hard to follow and a few area's of duplication as well.

As for if it was believable, Lilly must have been living well beyond her means if she couldn't make it on a Doctors earnings.

sex plus mystery

First off, this story is set in Chicago but the narrator had a British accent which through me off constantly whenever a Chocago reference was made. The story itself has hot sex scenes and the scenes portrayed are all between the main character, Lily, and the paying clients she likes and even cares about. The story eventually morphs into escorts being hurt and even murdered while Lily is questioning her job as an escort. the wrap up of the mystery doesn't even really involve Lily directly and the scene felt out of place but could have easily been written to include her.
