For the soft girls who stayed. And the thirst traps who read.

Jordan Lee has carved out a cozy corner of the internet crying over romance novels and talking about her feelings. But her soft girl reads influencer platform is plateauing, and her manager has the perfect, terrifying solution: a six-week, high-budget cross-niche brand collaboration for Glow Collective.

Her partner? Riley Sharp. A fitness influencer with 1.2 million followers, a million-dollar body, and a grid full of shirtless thirst traps.

Jordan expects a vapid gym bro. What she gets is a man who annotates sci-fi novels in the margins, cooks his grandmother's adobo, and looks at her like she's the only real thing in a world of filters. Riley has spent years performing strength for the camera, but the second he meets Jordan, he's ready to strip away the brand and show her the man underneath.

As their viral chemistry sends the internet into a meltdown and spawns the trending hashtag #Jorley, they strike a private arrangement off-camera: friends with benefits, on her terms. No performance. No audience. Just them.

But when the line between content and reality blurs, Jordan has to decide if she's brave enough to risk her heart in front of millions of people—and Riley has to prove that the best love stories don't need a ring light to shine.

Influencer with Benefits is a high-heat, opposites-attract contemporary romance featuring explicit scenes, a swoon-worthy hero who falls first, and a relatable bookish heroine. Intended for mature audiences (18+).
