| Monica Brennerman is a 27 year old agoraphobic who has spent much of the last 2 years of her life indoors. She had had panic attacks since the age of 13. She was feeling very lonely so she looked at escort services on the Internet. She found one that looked interesting - Labor of Love. She checked all the pictures and found one man, Ryan, who looked like someone she could feel relaxed with. She called Labor of Love and scheduled a date for Thursday night. Ryan Hayes is a 22 year old student, woodworker and has taken care of his Gram Pearl for years. Gram is now living in a nursing home with Alzheimer's. Gram's expenses were going up and Ryan needed more cash. Ryan heard about the money he could earn working at Labor of Love and decided to try it. Monica was his first client.
I loved the characters of Monica and Ryan. Monica was a very vulnerable person because of her panic attacks and agoraphobia. She had a problem with people always treating her like an invalid, especially family. Ryan was a hunk and a very likable guy. When Monica and Ryan first met, it seemed like they had known each other for years. The sex scenes with Monica and Ryan are beautifully written and SO HOT. This story sheds a great deal of light on the condition of agoraphobia and people living with it in a compassionate way. This is a very sweet and sexy love story. I recommend it to everyone.
