About this Item

Paperback. They think they are buying her body. What she is actually selling is a mirror.Cassandra Williams is dead. She was buried under the wreckage of a stolen academic career and a broken heart. In her place stands Aura: a polished, unfeeling construct of black silk and cold control.Aura is a high-end specialist in the curation of fantasy. She sells sex; uninhibited, precise, and perfectly executed, but to her, the bedroom is a laboratory. For the Architect, she builds a pillow fort of innocence. For the Judge, she becomes the defendant. For the Somatic Detective, she is a mystery to be solved in the dark. She collects these encounters like specimens, cataloging the erotic hungers of the city's elite in a secret manuscript, proving over and over that she is the one holding the pen.But the collection has a flaw.As Aura moves from the brutalist penthouse of a billionaire to the dusty studio of a forger, the walls of her fortress begin to crack. A kind widower with a dangerous gift, a magician who offers a key, and a pair of renovators building a life from sawdust and sweat challenge her carefully curated detachment.When the lines between observer and participant blur, Aura is forced to confront the one hunger she hasn't cataloged: her own.Visceral, intellectual, and scorching hot, this is a story about the lies we tell to survive, and the messy, beautiful truth of what it means to be seen. Aura sells sex and fantasy to the elite, cataloging the hungers like specimens. But when real intimacy breaches her defenses, the observer becomes the subject. A scorching, literary exploration of trauma, desire, and control. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

About this title

Synopsis

Control is the ultimate illusion. And she has perfected the art of the lie.

To her high-net-worth clients, she is Aura: a blank canvas, a perfect reflection, a fantasy tailored to their most secret hungers.

To the Architect, she is a soft place to land. To the Judge, she is ruthless justice. To the Tech Billionaire, she is the flawless simulated girlfriend.

But when the hotel door closes and the transaction is complete, Aura disappears.

In the sterile silence of her apartment, she opens The Client Book, where she catalogs each man with the cold precision of a scholar: his desires, his weaknesses, the fractures beneath his wealth and power. It is how she keeps control. How she stays untouched in a profession built on intimacy.

Until the lines begin to blur.

A client breaks the rules with an act of unexpected tenderness. A bookbinder sees too much. The carefully curated distance between performance and self begins to collapse, and the ghost of Cassie, the brilliant young scholar shattered by betrayal, starts clawing her way back to the surface.

As desire sharpens into obsession, Aura is forced to confront the one thing she has always refused to examine:

herself.

The Client Book is a dark, intelligent, and deeply sensual novel about power, performance, voyeurism, and the cost of surviving by becoming exactly what others want.

Perfect for readers of Three Women, Acts of Service, and Luster.
