'It is heartening to find humour and a glimmer of hope' - Jo Brand

'Unflinching . . . Everyone should read this book' - Emily Edwards, author of The Herd

The author of How Was It for You? has worked across the sex industry for twenty years: in a brothel, as an escort, in a strip club, online and as a dominatrix. In this candid memoir she reveals all: the good stuff, the bad, and the downright ugly.

We lie with her poolside as she visits wealthy clients at their Caribbean villas. We watch from the public gallery as she is dragged in and out of court by the law. We perch at her side in a cell as she contemplates the true meaning of freedom.

And we’re with her as she discovers she's pregnant and her body is given another job to do: growing and giving birth to a baby. Honest, eye-opening, full of fury and frequently funny, How Was It for You? will give you a unique insight into what’s happening in society’s shadows. It is an unforgettable walk in someone else’s high heels.
