Three Hard Lessons

Written by Nikki Sloane

Narrated by Muffy Newtown

I am the woman men pay thousands of dollars to sleep with. I do what I love and what I'm so very good at.

Then he walks in and drops $30,000. He wants to talk. And kiss. And take me home.

In a single night, this man turns everything upside-down and has me breaking every rule I've lived by to keep men at a distance. I'm about to learn some lessons the hard way.

Don't tease him. Don't give him boundaries. And don't think you get a choice in who you love.

Reviews for Three Hard Lessons

[Nic Graham · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Wow. Hot af and another HEA that felt natural and unforced.

[Feminist Reader · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I read that women of a certain age apply to graduate school because they want a big change in their lives; Diane Sawyer did a report (late 90s/early 2000s) where she said these same women who don’t get into grad school end up wanting to go to Reno, Nevada, where prostitution is legal and try out the adventures of being a call girl (like, the bunnyland ranch?). I’m saying this because I don’t think it is an uncommon fantasy—though the report showed that few women stay in the “profession,” which is degrading and exceptionally *not* sexy. So Payton, who seems more like 36 than 26, is that character who gets to live out the sexy fantasy.

Not as good as the first book, but a good escape. Sloane is an excellent writer— steamy scenes scene throughout.

[Stacey Kennard · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Love this one more than the first. Really liked that it wasn’t 100% predictable.

[Michelle · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Good book but part of the story seems to be missing in the auto version.
