‘The Boyfriend Subscription’ is a refreshing take on romance, The development of love between Teddy and Cole is beautifully portrayed, drawing readers in with its engrossing progression of feelings. What sets this book apart is its ability to tackle traditionally taboo topics (sex work) with grace and sensitivity, turning them into elements that enrich the story rather than detract from it. From the incorporation of hot little details like the leather harness to the subtle nods to ‘The Devil Wears Prada,’ every aspect of this novel is carefully crafted to keep the reader hooked throughout. Overall, ‘The Boyfriend Subscription’ is a fantastic read that offers both romance and depth, making it something i’ll be recommending to everyone.

So refreshing and heartwarming. The humor wasn’t my cup of tea (Teddy needs to learn new curse words and exclamations. “Holy shitballs” isn’t really the vibe), but the romance and characters were SO well done. I’ve been itching for a good romance with two leads you root for individually and together, and I’ve finally found it!

I thoroughly enjoyed The Boyfriend Subscription, and I recommend it to romance readers who:

✦ enjoy a good fake relationship trope
✦ have a soft spot for underdogs
✦ value the normalization of sex work
✦ want something light with just a touch of depth
✦ appreciate some steaminess

In a nutshell, this novel is a perfect piece of escapism, quick and fun with just enough substance to allay any guilty pleasure vibes.

[I received an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review.]
