Erika Wilde and Carly Phillips are 2 of my absolute favorite authors ever and when I found out they were planning to write a book together, I was over the moon happy. Book baby from 2 favorite authors!!! Dirty Sexy Saint had me wanting to do nothing but read from the moment I started the book. Samantha Jamieson comes from money, as in her father is a billionaire. However, her father also thinks his money means he can control Samantha and who she marries. I loved that Samantha was strong enough to not only tell him no, but to walk away with nothing but the clothes on her back. Luckily when she ends up on the wrong side of the tracks, it's in Clay Kincaid's bar. Clay is hands down the sexiest alpha male ever, but he also has a heart of gold when it comes to taking care of people down on their luck. Dirty Sexy Saint is super sexy and hot. The chemistry between Clay and Samantha is off the charts hot and I loved that Samantha liked sex just as fast and filthy as Clay. I honestly didn't expect Samantha to fit in with Clay and his friends and family as well as she did and ended up loving her character every bit as much as Clay. OMG they are both so protective of one another and I loved they couldn't get enough of each other. Even with their backgrounds being so completely different, I adored Clay and Samantha as a couple. Dirty Sexy Saint was an amazing start to the Dirty Sexy series from Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde. I can't wait to read both Mason and Levi's stories!

What a fantastic story from these two authors! I could not put this book down. These characters were just great! Samantha Jamieson comes from a family of wealth and is an only child. She has been raised to be the perfect daughter and perfect little wife...think Stepford wife. When she overhears her father talking to her boyfriend that once he marries Samantha, he will make him the CEO of the company, Samantha throws a fit. She was thinking of breaking up with Harrison, not every marrying him! When her father threatens to take away everything from her but the clothes on her back, Samantha doesn't care. She just wants out! After ditching her car and cell phone so her dad can't track her, she calls a cab and tells the cab driver to take her to her favorite bar in Chicago. Soon they arrive at Kincaid's. Samantha is having a great time ordering every drink on the menu with the dirtiest names and has gotten herself very drunk. She ends up being the last person in the bar and the bar's owner, Clay Kincaid wants to just put her in cab and send her home. She looks way to wealthy for his lifestyle. Soon Clay realizes that this woman has no money and no place to go so Saint Clay kicks in. The banter and flirting between these two was awesome! I loved the nickname Cupcake! Perfect! Clay decides to bring her to his apartment up above the bar. This scene was so funny! Let's just say Saint Clay is "trying" to be a saint and Samantha is trying everything in her power to make him the devil! ;) Clay decides to give Samantha a chance and let's her work at the bar. He figures she won't last more than one night. Well she proves him wrong and the walls around his heart are starting to get some cracks in them. The chemistry between these two was off the charts! I loved how two people with such different backgrounds fit together so well. I loved how he just seemed to know what Samantha needed. Quickly these two fell deeply in love with the other, without even knowing it. Clay's backstory was a great twist. I just adored both of his brothers. I so can't wait to read Mason's story. Sounds like the perfect bad boy! The final standoff at the end was perfect. As usual, I laughed out loud, swooned and cried during this story. Overall a great book and I look forward to the others in the series!

A girl walks into a bar... What happens when an Uptown Girl connects with a man from the other side of the tracks? Pure chemistry, plain and simple. Samantha Jamieson has never wanted for anything. Living a life of privilege, she's never lacked anything, except unconditional love and the chance to live life on her terms. Clay Kincaid's childhood is the stuff of nightmares, but he's finally put his past behind him, creating a life that he can be happy with. When Samantha, running from a fate that she can't abide, finds herself in Clay's bar, it isn't long before 'Saint' Clay comes riding to the rescue, and life as they know it takes a most interesting detour. I have long been a fan of both Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde, so imagine my delight in finding out that these two fabulous ladies were collaborating on a sexy new series. DIRTY SEXY SAINT takes the best of both of these authors and gives readers a brand new set of characters to get to know and love. Samantha is the kind of heroine that I love to read. She's sassy, spunky, and, although her nickname may be Cupcake, she very quickly learns to hold her own. Clay is one heck of a hot alpha, but he's more than a stereotype. With a childhood fraught with abuse and desperation, he's locked down emotionally, although he's a sucker for a lost cause. He hasn't earned the nickname of 'Saint' for nothing, and it isn't long before he's helping Sam figure out her life, while she helps him in ways that he never anticipated. I thoroughly enjoyed this read. There is heat galore, intrigue, drama, and the kind of characters that you want more of. I can't wait to get to know Clay's brothers, Mason and Levi, better, and am thrilled that they will each get their own book. 4.5 dirty, sexy, sweet, naughty stars for DIRTY SEXY SAINT. Add this one to your TBR and thank me later.
