Hrm. I'm working on a hooker!fic and wondering if an element has been done before? It has to have been done before, as much hooker!fic as there is in the world?

Okay, so, there's a professional athlete, let's call him Jamie, and he hires a high-end escort, "Tyler." And after a dozen or so appointments and some outside-life events, Jamie says he wants to date. So they try, but Tyler has always kept a very clean compartmentalization of work and not-work and this is messing with his head. The first time they try to make love when it's not a financial arrangement between them, Tyler calls it off, and is like "We can date, or we can fuck, but right now, I can't do both." Has this been done before? Too many times? In an iconic work?

That may be a new idea because I've read a LOTTTTTT of hookerfic and that's not striking a bell with me. I'm forgetful though.

You know a sneaky way to double check this? Put it on kink_finders as a type of story you're looking for. I'm really not reliable because unless something really stands out I forget them not too long after I've read them.

There's a Sid/Geno story with this premise; after they get together for real, Geno has to keep giving Sid a dollar each time they have sex, so Sid can relax and have good sex, otherwise he feels too much pressure to be perfect at it as "himself" instead of as a highly skilled professional. It's a fairly long story, and the premise works well within it, so while I agree there can never be enough good hooker!fic, I think you might want to make sure your story doesn't do the exact same thing.

It's called Nights Are Getting Colder and while it is about a lot of other things, if you're concerned about being too similar, your description made me think of this story immediately.

Seconded. I immediately thought of this story too, I'm afraid.
