$50 A Night

Her love was for sale — at the right price…

From the back:

Life was suddenly very complicated for Ann Freeman. Too many people were making demands of her!
Cal Marker wanted her for his stable, to help pay for his daily quota of heroin.
Clara Lundy needed Ann to satisfy her craving for abnormal “love.”
Casey Shean, sweet, “square” and very much in love, wanted Ann for his wife.
As if all this wasn’t enough, there was Crowley, the vice cop, who was out to “get” Ann, in more ways than one.

79 Park Avenue (1956)

The best-selling novel about the call-girl racket

From the back:

“Mister, some girls are born to be wives—but I was born for THIS!”
She was beautiful, voluptuous, alluring. You might think she was an actress or a model. But the cops could tell you what she really was: a prostitute with a record, a call girl who liked her work.
She had known more men than she could remember. But there were a few she would never forget: her stepfather, who started her on her way; Ross Drego, a racketeer who was willing to pay any price for her; Mike Keyes, who prosecuted her in court—and who was the only man she ever loved.

A Baryé Phillips cover for this same book is here.

Women Could Buy Her — No Man Could Pay Enough

From the back:

Twisted Passions…
were boiling inside young Anne Mason the first — and last — time she let a man touch her lovely body. She wanted love — needed it — and yet the thought of men sickened her. It was then that a clever Ruth Hardy stepped into her life. Ruth who taught her what one woman could mean to another, what it was like to step over the line of normality into the shadow world of twisted desire. But that was only the beginning. Anne went from boudoir to boudoir until she met Lana. Lana the madame, Lana the purveyor of female love, Lana who set her up in business as a professional lesbian, to sell herself to strange but wealthy women clients. It was the beginning and the end. For the orgy that had become her life had thrown her into a —

Call Me Bad

Sherry was one of those dolls you list on your expense report…

An Explosive Indictment Of The Call Girl Racket — And Women Like Sherry Jenkins, Whose Lover Did Not Know Her Profession…!

From the back:

A Call Girl is anybody… maybe your boss’s wife or yours… maybe your sweetheart, yes even your daughter! For the call girl comes from any walk of life – every level of today’s lust-ridden, money-mad; sales-crazy society. Working by appointment only, she may give more satisfaction in a night than some women do in a lifetime. If you’ve got the expense account and your name is “John” you probably have her number. And you’ll probably use it, if you don’t give a hang what happens to yourself — or her…

A lot of Johns had Sherry’s number at Central Hotel — and then along came Harry Barnes, to whom she gave a new exchange: LOve 1-0000 — a number no one had ever dialed before. Could she hide her trade from Harry, and so manage to steal him from a wife said to give away to many what Sherry sold to a few? If so, Sherry would have to depend on friends who were worse than enemies, friends like Ma Williams, the madam. Flame-haired Billie Gordon, who loved bawdry and nothing else. Joe Dolan, who wanted to blackmail Sherry. Skinny Lane, the rapist looking for more of same. And, of course, a drunken father who swore Sherry had been sired by another man!
