Sugar, Baby

£9.99

This is the story of Agnes, a young woman stuck in a dead-end cleaning job whose life changes when she is introduced to a new profession: sugaring. At first, it seems like the perfect escape – extravagant tasting menus, private jets to Paris and Miami, endless admirers. But it comes as a shock for her religious mother Constance, who came to the UK from St Vincent in her twenties. While Constance’s faith starts to be rattled, Agnes must ask herself how far she is willing to go to be adored.
