Carolina Garcia-Aguilera: Magnolia (USA 2013) From the Publisher: Suddenly, a very attractive, beautifully dressed woman sits down and identifies herself as a sports agent. Almost out of money and with no prospects of making any, Magnolia is intrigued by the sports agent’s proposal to train as a "sports geisha," a high-priced hooker for elite athletes. If she accepts Magnolia would acquire skills that will serve her well throughout her life--learning languages, studying the pressures elite athletes are under with a sports psychologist, and getting into top-notch physical shape. The offer allows Magnolia to remain in Miami while enjoying a huge payday. But can a conservative Catholic girl from the Midwest transform herself into a courtesan?? And if she does, at what personal cost? Carolina Garcia-Aguilera: Magnolia. B & B Press, ISBN: 9780983937845 (February, 2013), 410 p., $16.95, eBook $2.99.
