THE NIGHT TRADE is the emotionally-charged story of five strong-willed, ambitious and intelligent young women whose paths may have varied, yet led them all to one common destination-the glamorous , lucrative and sometimes dangerous world of exotic dancing. THE NIGHT TRADE was written to demonstrate the camaraderie, love, struggles, and plight of those women who resort to using the art of seductive entertainment in order to overcome their adversities, improve their lives or merely feel a sense of belonging and self-worth. It s time to stop judging a book by its cover and actually open the book. The table of contents just may interest you. And if you are not careful, you may even learn something. This gripping depiction of life in the Adult Entertainment Industry will speak to anyone who has ever felt alone while in a crowded room; neglected while being adored; or abandoned while being embraced. THE NIGHT TRADE acknowledges the seedy side of its persona while it introduces its audience to the various differences within one similarity. The five women each represent someone you may know for they come from all walks of life. While this book targets women of all ages, it will strike a nerve with those women who are single parents struggling to feed their children...with those women who are doing what they have to do to pay for their college educations... with those women who seek personal fulfillment as they feel their lives are empty, unchallenging and without purpose. As it can be argued that professional exotic dancers are the victims of exploitation, there is also the counterpoint that these individuals have benefited from and capitalized on this business. This fictional scroll is a reflection of these women, as they are depicted in a realistic light and not stereotyped as home wreckers, sexual objects, or groupies. The women are real...their stories, unfortunately, are even more real.
