Confidante: The Escort. It’s a true story and the second book in the Confidante Trilogy.

The trilogy follows Angelien, a now retired Sydney sex worker, as she climbs the ladder of the sex industry from working in a brothel to becoming the Madame in her own escort agency.

What genre is it?
Biography

Biography? So Angelien is a real person?
Angelien is one of the most interesting women you will ever meet. She has a relaxed view on sex, but still manages to retain her dignity and her values while working in an industry that most of us wouldn’t dare enter.

What kind of readers will it appeal to?
Anyone who’s ever wondered what goes on in the sex industry, but is too afraid to ask.

We were wondering, how explicit is the sex in this book?
The sex is fairly explicit, but I wouldn’t class this book as erotica. The sex is explained where it is warranted within the story and not for entertainment’s sake.

Are there any other books out there that are similar?
Secret Diary of a Call Girl.

How did you choose your book title?
‘Confidante’ because that’s what I have been to Angelien for the last decade, and ‘The Escort’ because that’s the stage of her career in this book.

How did you even meet Angelien in the first place?
Angelien is actually my Mother in Law, I met her when I was in high school originally as I was friends with her son, and then again later in life when I started dating him. Over the years we’ve grown steadily closer, she’s now even more of a mother to me than my own. 

Oh wow. Talk to us about the trilogy as a whole.
Firstly, you should read Confidante: The Brothel.

The final book  is called Confidante: The Madam, in this book we will see Angelien start up her own escort agency catering for men who prefer a more mature woman (30+) and then how she finally retires from the industry for good. 

Have you written any other books?
I have written New Adult romances ‘A Beautiful Struggle‘, ‘A Beautiful Forever‘, ‘Alter‘ and soon to release ‘Too Close – The Beauty in Between‘ which is the prequel to A Beautiful Struggle.

Tell us a bit about yourself.

Bestselling Author of the A Beautiful Series, Alter and the Confidante Trilogy, Lilliana has always loved to read and write, considering it the best form of escapism that the world has to offer.

Australian born and bred, she writes New Adult Romance revolving around her authentically Aussie characters as well as a biographical trilogy based on an ex-Sydney sex worker, named Angelien.

Lilliana feels that the world should see Australia for more than just it’s outback and tries to show characters in more of a city setting.

When she isn’t writing, she wears the hat of ‘wife and mother’ to her husband and four children.

Before Lilliana turned to writing, she worked in a variety of industries and studied humanities and communications before transferring to commerce/law at university.

Originally from Sydney’s Western suburbs, she currently lives a fairly quiet life in suburban Melbourne.
