2.75 starsAlright so I found the premise of Lawful Escort to be fun. The h is faking out being an escort for her sick friend, puts that good thang on the H and now has him hooked. Well she's a lawyer aside from this fun escapade and guess who just started business with the law firm? You guess it. The H. So like I said I was expecting 1. that they do the whole escort/john thing and go their separate ways thinking about the one that got away. 2. After that one night/weekend, they both show up on Monday morning at the law office, sitting across from each other in the conference room - shock, steamy gazes, 3. I don't know, I'm not a writer but all the other stuff that gets them to an HEA. That didn't happen though. Instead the h keeps the charade going that she is an escort and the H lets her even though about half way through the book he finds out that she isn't. They have lots of sex. She gets mad at him for LETTING her keep the charade up even though ultimately they both lied and actually she lied longer. Anyways. The other reason why this isn't a full 3 star read, the hero had some weird thoughts about other people. He had some really sexist/homophobic moments: "Hysterics were for women and gay guys. He''d never been emotional like others, at least not since puberty"...So Tina Folsom you are saying that grown straight women and grown gay men have the same emotional countenance of a straight teen male. Dang. Privilege much. Feminist war cry in 3...2..1..aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHere's another gem: "He knew how much Tim liked some good gossip. In that respect gay men were like women." That's one hell of a stereotype for both groups. At times I wondered in Tina Folsom is a psuedonym for a man. Cause some of the mentalities that the hero had.. hmmmm I can't get with it. Happy it was free. Fun premise. Lots of sex. Execution iffy. Mysoginist hero. The end. I love Tina's books they a well written no matter what genre she chooses .Her Scansguards book are the best .In this book the first of this series Daniel requires an escort for a diner function so he asks a friend to find one.Holly who was chosen can't make it for tonight so she begs her roommate and long time friend to fill in for he and act as her...she afraid if she doesn't take the job tonight she will loose he job...as for the rest of the story you need to read it and it will be worth it
What do You think about Lawful Escort (2010)?
Kinda far fetched on some things but I liked Daniel & Sabrina. It was a fun, sexy read.

Light hearted and entertaining although a little clunky in writing style
