Being blunt never pays the bills—trust me, I’ve tried.

Hey, I’m Ollie. A cash-strapped, 31-year-old aspiring writer, recently unceremoniously pink-slipped from my gig as a social media manager (read: de facto personal lackey) to a reality TV diva. Why? Because I got tired of sugarcoating the truth.

With my bank account gasping for air and my dreams gathering dust, I hatched a scheme: dive into the sugar baby lifestyle, chronicle my misadventures for publication, and maybe make a quick buck. What could go wrong, right? Well, with my serious allergy to nonsense and a knack for putting my foot in my mouth, I’m in for a whirlwind of tangled lies and unexpected truths.

From dodging drama with my ex-boss to navigating a love triangle with a pinch of forbidden love, my life is a tangled web of secret affairs and scandalous revelations. Throw in an unexpected ally and a cheating spouse, and it’s one heck of an emotional rollercoaster. But amidst the chaos, I’m on a journey of self-discovery, proving that even the most empowered women can stumble (and get back up again). With a redemption arc waiting and a happy ending on the horizon, get ready for a rollercoaster ride of love, lies, and life lessons.

From the star of the Emmy award-winning HBO film, "Alabama Snake," and a prolific writer with over 150 screenwriting awards under her belt, including the prestigious Final Draft Big Break Screenwriting Competition and the Atlanta Film Festival Screenwriting Competition, comes a debut novella that promises to be an absolute rollercoaster of emotions, intrigue, and sass! Carere's fiction work has been lauded, being shortlisted for the Leap Frog Fiction Prize and the Catalyst Content Festival.

Wonderful Listen

Bad Sugar Baby is a captivating listen that you won’t want to end. Erin Carere’s writing is incredibly well-crafted, leaving readers wanting more. Her narration, flawless and engaging.

Los Angeles, the concrete jungle of luxury and glamour, provides the setting for Bad Sugar Baby, where the shimmering lights and endless possibilities can be both exhilarating and expensive. Ollie, a small-town mid-western girl with big dreams of becoming a writer, leaves her hometown for the bustling, sun-drenched streets of LA where she finds herself employed by a self-absorbed social media influencer. When her career ends in disaster, Ollie finds herself not only unemployed but desperate for money. 

Ollie’s friend, a single mom supporting her special needs son by being a sugar baby, encourages Ollie to explore the same path. Faced with the harsh reality that she’ll need a few jobs to stay afloat, Ollie reluctantly agrees. With the goal of turning the experience into a stepping stone towards her career as a writer, Ollie embarks on a peculiar journey into the life of a sugar baby. 

As Ollie encounters a cast of unforgettable and unusual characters, the reader experiences a roller coaster of emotions, carrying them along with the highs and lows of each interaction. Some situations are so funny you’ll burst out laughing, others are truly upsetting, while others are just plain heartbreaking. 

Bad Sugar Baby is a face-paced wonderfully entertaining audiobook and I highly recommend it.
