Description

Shawna Kenney ended up funding herself though college in Washington, D.C, by dressing up in PVC, changing her name to Mistress Alexis, brandishing a whip and humiliating her grateful clients after she answered an advert saying 'Get Paid For Being a Bitch'. She found out she was rather good at it (and that being a mistress pays better than waitressing). We learn what goes on behind closed doors, why men pay someone to beat the **** out of them (some are lonely, sad people and others are, well, complete and utter perverts) and what motivates a young woman to take up this unusual profession. This sassy memoir is gripping, gruesome and strangely touching in places, and is a compelling insight into the life and world of a dominatrix.
