He’s the accidental gigolo. Young and good-looking, he can be your Mr Darcy ... for a fixed fee.

Jobless and down on his luck, Argentinian actor Francesc, or Cesc to his friends, needs to find quick cash.

His best friend, Celeste, an occasional artist and part-time model with too much time on her hands, starts him internet dating and soon he finds a world of casual sex.
When a date offers him cash for sex, he realises there’s money to be made from his natural assets and a call-boy career is only a step away.
Cesc narrates the story of his career and the tricks of the trade with wit and dry humour. Part ingénue, part cynic, he leads the reader on a tour through the glamour and sleaze of life selling sex to rich female pleasure seekers.
Set in modern London, Adventures of  a London Call-Boy  is a witty and cosmopolitan novel for aficionados of light erotic fiction which crosses over into general fiction.
Ben Franckx lives and works in Leeds. He has published a non-fiction book, translations of poetry, and reviews for national newspapers. He has also edited print and online publications. For many years he worked behind the bar at a London pub. Ben Franckx is a pseudonym.

Believable

I really enjoyed this one. It was well written and you did believe that the person was writing from personal experience.
But it wasn't just a succession of jobs, he was involved with the ladies in question and there was a side-plot which kind of linked it all together. An enjoyable read.

This one's a keeper

Now, this. This is a dirty book I can truly appreciate. “Adventures of a London Call Boy” by Ben Franckx.

The premise is basically a guy (with a very high sex drive) who finds himself in need of income more or less stumbles into a career as a call boy. So you get the sampler platter of partners and experiences. Some misadventure as he figures out his best business practices. And a little high drama ending when he gets tangled up with the wrong person. Simple, yes. But written believably. At least enough to qualify as quality escapism.

There’s real actual plot happening. Plenty of sex. But not so much that it overwhelms everything else. But when the sex does happen. Um. Yeah. It’s good. It’s really good. There were only a few times when I lost track of where hands and mouths were, but each time, once I went back and re-read carefully, the conversation in my head when something like…

“Wait, his hands were where?”

“Oh, I see, his hands were.”

“Oh.”

“OMG”

This one is definitely a keeper. It’s not unusual for me to loan a book once I’ve read it, but not this one. This little baby is staying on my bookshelf. Or maybe, it’s landing in the pile of porn and other reading material I keep in my bathroom for when I’m enjoying a long hot bath.
