"An absolute rollercoaster of emotions, intrigue, and sass!" "Carere's writing is top-notch. You'll be laughing one second and tearing up the next." Being blunt never pays the bills-trust me, I've tried. Hey, I'm Ollie. A cash-strapped, 31-year-old aspiring writer, recently unceremoniously pink-slipped from my gig as a social media manager (read: de facto personal lackey) to a reality TV diva. Why? Because I got tired of sugarcoating the truth. With my bank account gasping for air and my dreams gathering dust, I hatched a scheme: dive into the sugar baby lifestyle, chronicle my misadventures for publication, and maybe make a quick buck. What could go wrong, right? Well, with my serious allergy to nonsense and a knack for putting my foot in my mouth, I'm in for a whirlwind of tangled lies and unexpected truths. From dodging drama with my ex-boss to navigating a love triangle with a pinch of forbidden love, my life is a tangled web of secret affairs and scandalous revelations. Throw in an unexpected ally and a cheating spouse, and it's one heck of an emotional rollercoaster. But amidst the chaos, I'm on a journey of self-discovery, proving that even the most empowered women can stumble (and get back up again). With a redemption arc waiting and a happy ending on the horizon, get ready for a rollercoaster ride of love, lies, and life lessons.
