If I'm going to be a prostitute, I don't just want to be a run-of-the-mill one wrote 17 year old Bruna Surfistinha on her web diary. So begins the vivid account of her three years as a high-class call girl in Sao Paulo. In 2002, Bruna ran away from her middle class family and became a call girl. She also wrote a web diary about her day-to-day adventures turning tricks in the swanky suburb of Paraiso. Insouciant, frank and very funny, Bruna recounts in detail her rendezvous with men, women and couples and reveals what men really want in bed but don't like to ask for at home. Today I can say that there's no fantasy that scares me because I've already done and seen everything. Bruna also writes wistfully of her estranged family, honestly about her own shortcomings and endearingly about falling in love. The Diary of a Brazilian Call Girl is a no-holds-barred account of life in the fast lane of the high-class sex-trade. Imagine Jordan writing a sexed-up Bridgit Jones's Diary with a Pretty Woman style happy ending.
