She brought me up to her level just by allowing me to be in her presence. The name I was given at birth, King—it had always been a joke. Until Elizabeth Dyson stood beside me and finally made me royalty.






The conclusion to the ”Dirty Sexy Games” duet takes steamy to a whole other level! It has been several months since I listened to the first book on audible, so I must admit I forgot some of the plot, but it didn't take long for it to all come back to me.







I don’t know why, but I had this feeling when I first started this book, that I was going to be disappointed. I was completely wrong. I loved Weston and Lizzy’s journey. I think reading instead of listening to this one, made the experience so much more enjoyable for me. I loved that their relationship went through a transformation and I felt the connection between the two in this installment as opposed to how I didn’t really feel the chemistry in book one.






I ended up empathizing for these characters and hoping that they’d figure a way to make things work out for them in the end.




Here are my overall ratings:

Hero: 5
Heroine: 4
Plot: 4
Angst: 4
Steam: 5
Chemistry Between Hero & Heroine: 5

Weston King & Elizabeth Dyson had a plan. Fake being in love and get married so Elizabeth could get her inheritance and claim her legacy as the head of Dyson Media. She would then merge holdings with Weston’s company Reach Inc. Together they would have everything they could ever want. Elizabeth is determined to take over Dyson Media and make something of it. She’s preparing herself to run the multi billion-dollar corporation in a way that her dad would’ve been proud of.

Everything is going smoothly until Weston and Elizabeth realize they want this marriage to be real. Along the way they’ve fallen in love, and want a relationship. They want to be together. No games, and no longer just for show. They both see a future together, and aren’t faking anymore. Elizabeth is tired of pretending her feelings aren’t real. She wants Weston in every way. She can’t resist him, and wants to be close to him, but there’s still a giant, invisible wall between them. Something he’s not telling her, and she just wants him to let her in.

Weston has had some major drama happen lately, and needs to confide in his wife. He feels she’s an ocean away even though their connection and love is strong. He’s terrified he could lose her, but knows they need to take the time to really learn one another and build their trust. When ambitions and secrets take them in different directions will they choose love or power?

-Thinking about Elizabeth was like the sun breaking through clouds on a stormy day. I wanted to be with her, wanted her light, wanted her warmth.

-I was in love with her.

-This wedding, this fake wedding, had become the most real thing in my life. Elizabeth had become the most real thing in my life.

-She was mine. Forever mine.

Book 2 in the Dirty Games Duet was fabulous! Through the Dirty Duet & Dirty Games Duet I’ve loved Weston King. In the beginning he was a gorgeous, charming playboy. He’s slowly evolved into so much more. A man with so many layers, and with so much love to give. This book really showed a more emotional, vulnerable, serious side of Weston that was addictive. I adored this couple, and thought this was the perfect conclusion to their story. Just loved it!

Hot! Like the previous book, Dirty Sexy Games is hot. So hot that I blushed when I listen to the audio book. This is the conclusion of Dirty Games Duet. The story between Weston and Elizabeth, who both started the marriage of convenience then fall in love.

The cliffhanger on the previous book revealed Weston has a child from his previous relationship. Although this book does not putting a heavy drama on this said child, everything resolved too quickly for my taste. I am expecting more resentment from Elizabeth. But since both them are more in love with each other, Elizabeth takes this revelation with stride. I am happy to see their HEA at last.

This book is light in drama/ twist. But it still ends nicely.

Please read the first book(s) in this series/duet first if you haven't yet!

Elizabeth and Weston just realized - after they got married - that they won't be able to move to France together. Wes just found out he has a son - which he hasn't told Elizabeth yet. He can't move away now. But Elizabeth's whole life and her company are in France. What to do?

Plus her ex is sniffing around and her cousin is still not 100% sure of the realness of this marriage.

Lots of stuff to figure out until those two can ride off into their Happily Ever After sunset!

What will happen with Elizabeth & Wes?
Will we finally get our Happy End???
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT!☺

ADORABLE!


But also.. ugh. Why didn't Wes tell Elizabeth about his son the moment he found out? Keeping secrets is never the right thing to do! But of course he will tell her - or does it come out in another way? Who knows. And the boy is not the only 'problem' the newlyweds have to fight through - even though the whole book is basically about the new son, new and old fathers, Wes and Elizabeth's work and sexy times! LOL!

I really enjoyed reading this second book. I even cried a bit here and there!

I hate that it took so long for the book to be released - I suffer from book alzheimers - how in the world was I supposed to remember what had happened in book 1??? I remembered little pieces but not enough! I wish every author who writes a series would be required by law to put an amazing little summary of the first book in the first pages of the second one.☺

But anyway - I really liked this book. It was very sexy and funny and adorable and a bit heartbreaking and sad and moving. Wes is the most adorable daddy! And I really loved how it all turned out in the end! ♥

Tiny little thing. The cover. The new one has this girl on it - me no likey! I loved the first try with the half-naked guy. This girl has the right hair color, but she isn't my Elizabeth at all. The cover girl looks like an office dominatrix person. ☺

DIRTY SEXY GAMES was a very sexy and adorable finale in this duet! Hurry to your nearest amazon - Weston will be sold out in no time!

“How am I supposed to know what’s real and what isn’t?” – Elizabeth



Laurelin Paige is one of my favorite authors. I like her fluidity with language. She knows how to write romance. When she is on her game, she even adds the uniqueness of her voice in the development of her characters imbuing them with inventive personality quirks. And…she knows how to write a hot passionate erotic moment. These moments found throughout this series from the beginning in Dirty Filthy Rich Boys are mostly unexpected which make them doubly hot because they create a genuine sense of intimacy between the characters on the page and the reader. It’s as if we, the readers, share private moments of these sexy lovers hidden from the rest of the world…shared secrets.

I must admit while there are some wonderful passages in this read that make the book an overall pleasurable experience, it is my least favorite of the entire series. The tension created by the dilemma of Weston’s past decisions interfering with his ability now to be in his new marriage 100% to his recently discovered very real, true love, Elizabeth, seems a bit overworked. I became impatient with the angsty “should I tell her now” … “oh no, not yet”… “now”… “not yet”. So much angst!!!



Then again, in between the angst is the “sexy”. As much as I am frustrated with the angst…Ms. Paige works her magic with her erotic writing mastery…not to mention how hot Weston is described. Even though he is half out of his mind with his secrets. Secrets he thinks are going to derail his new-found comfort and delight in loving Elizabeth. Oh Weston of little faith!

Elizabeth is a wonderful heroine…beautiful, sexy, intelligent and ambitious. Most importantly, she has a good heart. It is a little damaged from some issues with her deceased father. She truly loves Weston and he does “it” for her as much she does “it” for him. Yet…she is holding on to her ambitions to prove herself to whom? I found her epiphany about everything in her life to come too suddenly. I mean one minute she feels one way and without preamble, BAM! she reverses herself entirely all in the space of a conversation with the antagonist, her cousin the CEO of the large company she inherited. Very strange timing and setting for such a life-changing decision. This…this was a bit of awkward writing… perhaps this plot point resolution was rushed and/or inappropriately placed.

This plot pacing faux pas is entirely forgiven because of the unexpected kinky hotness that was in the epilogue. In essence…this read gave me mood swings and made me have whiplash. Though, I’m glad I read it for the good parts…the good times. Weston is one hell of a sexy character…I am happy he is in my memory. A treasure really.

I’m the worst rater. I was going to give this book 4 stars but I really like this author and the good parts redeem the not so good and my usual 4 star rated reads don’t have the special moments this book has. It is actually 4.5 stars. You all know me…4.5 gets rounded up to 5. It is more what I say about than how I quantify a book. I am a terrible rater and an even worse critic (Just not very critical...I try to read with an expectant and open eye and heart.). If you love a hot, sexy, quasi-dirty romance, you will not be disappointed. You might even enjoy the angst-sex-angst-sex ad infinitum… see-saw?

Favorite Quote: (I could just see Weston in my mind’s eye…oh, he is magnificent!)

"Weston emerged from the ocean, an Adonis shining in the sun. He traipsed across the sand, seemingly unaware of the women nearby ogling him. It was impossible not to. He’d bronzed during our nine days in the tropics, and wearing only his swim trunks, his finest assets were displayed. His washboard abs. His perfectly sculpted biceps. His sun-bleached hair. That wicked grin. Not to mention that dimple that practically caused ovulation just by looking at it. And it was mine."

After a angst ridden, cliff hanger ending to Dirty Sexy Player I was excited to get my eyes on this book and it delivered up a fantastic conclusion to this fabulous duet ☺

Weston and Elizabeth are about to marry and has had a huge bombshell dropped on him. He is trying to get his head around this astounding revelation and he knows he needs to share it with Elizabeth. However, there is no way he is going to ruin their special day, he has fallen for this wild and beautiful girl who seems to surprise him more every day.

I absolutely loved their honeymoon, I love how effortlessly they just seem to click. This time alone is the perfect opportunity for them to open up and get to know each other, the have a very unique way of doing this too ;-)

As they come to end of their romantic holiday the secret that Weston is hiding is revealed and Elizabeth’s reaction completely surprises him. It seems that the love that has been growing between them really is strong enough to handle anything that life throws at them.

Elizabeth takes everything in her stride and Weston’s happiness means a lot to her. What may have started off as a fake marriage has now grown into so much more for both of them. However, as their relationship gets tested by lots of new changes in their lives they struggle to find a balance that will work for both of them. These two have barely gotten started and things feel like they are falling apart.

Maybe this was all to good to be true and walking away is the only way there will be any winners in this Dirty Sexy Game?

I absolutely loved this series, there is tons of delicious steamy sex and I loved their character development, they really did bring out the best in each other. This duet headed in a direction I did not expect and it was perfect!

Perfecting ending to Dirty Games series Weston & Lizzy fake marriage turning into real feelings. Love how on their honeymoon they got to know each other by spending every moment with each, however Weston has a big secret and Elizabeth needs to be where her company Dyson Media, when the entire reason for the proposed fake marriage was to merge the two companies, which Dyson Media is across the globe. Now where will they plant their roots when Weston needs to be home due to this secret he found out on the day of his wedding. It will change their lives forever and Weston don't want to lose the love of his life now that he has found Lizzy. Will Weston & Lizzy have their happily ever once Lizzy finds out or he lose the one person that makes him whole.

This one was so good! I loved this conclusion so much more than the first book. Elizabeth and Weston grew as a couple together. The plot twist from the end of the previous book (that I didn't like much), was really nicely done, and developed here. And damn was this one even hotter.

Weston is still as hot as ever with a dirty mouth to boot!! He is one of my favorite Laurelin Paige heroes.

The chemistry between them is fantastic, and I love the shift from lust to love. Although, I wish Elizabeth would have fought a bit more for them.

The story doesn’t really take any unexpected twists or turns. Readers will know exactly where this story
Is going. Even with knowing, the story is fun and sexy, another enjoyable read in this series!

Audiobook Review: 5 Stars

The most romantic and sexy conclusion to this duet!!

WARNING: This review includes spoilers of the first book of the duet. If you haven’t read it, please stop reading this review. You’ve been warned.


In the previous book, Dirty Sexy Player, Weston and Elizabeth had a marriage of convenience: She’d get control of her father’s company and he’d get a deal for his company. They’d both win in the process, and during the time of their engagement, they got to know each other—drive each other crazy—and they fell madly in love… But they kept their feelings hidden until the moment they said their vows… And everything was perfect until some news changed all perfective to Weston, and that obviously affected Elizabeth.

This book started with the drama in the highest level. There were secrets that needed to be revealed, there were people who wanted to ruin their marriage, and most of all, the communication between Elizabeth and Weston needed to be repaired. SO MUCH TENSION! SO MUCH DRAMA! I gotta be honest, I needed to be in the right state of mind to start reading this book because of all the drama, and I’m glad I waited to read/listen to it, because I completely loved it!!

This book is different from all Laurelin’s books, and by different I mean, good different. The romance was just perfect, Weston and Elizabeth's relationship was beautiful and once they overpassed the drama from the beginning, everything was just so perfect between them. The understanding and the way they were able to sacrifice for each other—Not like Romeo and Julieta did, obviously LOL—was seriously the best. And the sexy moments between them were sexy and romantic and beautiful.

Elena Wolfe & Jacob Morgan did an amazing job with the narration, bringing the romance and sexiness to the next level. Both their pronunciations and inflections were on point for this book. I particularly—and ironically—how they read the scene when they make love after they get married. I say ironically because despite I was wary of the drama in this part of the story, I loved how said drama added more to this scene, making it awesome!!

All in all, the Dirty Games Duet is amazing and everybody should read and listen to it. 100% recommended.

Just a recap: Elizabeth is a gorgeous young heiress but she can’t get her hands on her late father media’s empire unless she is married (daddy’s stipulation). Elizabeth’s cousin is slowly destroying her father’s legacy. Elizabeth is desperate to save her father company but her hands are tied. When Donovan, owner of Advertising Company proposed Elizabeth fake marry one of his co-owner Weston – she jump at the opportunity. OMG! I just love the angst and the love/hate relationship between Elizabeth and Weston. They absolutely cannot stand each other. Elizabeth is gorgeous, driven but inexperience. Weston is smart, confident, successful and the biggest player. They know how to push each other button well and holy moly the sexual tension is off the chart. What happen when fake marriage turned real?

At the end of book one, Weston received some very unexpected news right before the wedding. Just when Elizabeth and Weston finally professed their love for each other for real this time … they might have to be separated!!!!

Book two picked up where Weston and Elizabeth went on their honeymoon. They are determined to get to know each other a lot better. Holly hotness this book. Weston is totally alpha and dominant in the bedroom, Elizabeth couldn’t stand a chance. Talk about STEAMY – panty dropping hot! They were having a great time but Weston is distracted by a secret that he yet to reveal to Elizabeth. Sometimes, I just want to hit Weston in the head with my kindle for taking his sweet time. So many missed-opportunities – I get it! They were too busy sucking face. What happened though when Elizabeth found out the truth about Weston’s past. Newlyweds need time for adjustment but adding secret to the equation will be extremely difficult for the new bride to handle. Elizabeth was hurt and it will take a lot of groveling for Elizabeth to forgive. I really love Weston in this book – sweet, vulnerable, completely head over heal for his new bride. Elizabeth is sweetheart. She is adorable, caring, beautiful inside and out. I love the passion, the chemistry between Weston and Elizabeth. The dialogues are witty and hilarious at times. Laurelin writes incredibly sexy stories. Well written, entertaining and unputdownable. A gorgeous ending to Dirty Games duet!

I have been a huge fan of Laurelin Paige for a very long time. She is an amazing writer who gives us some of the best characters we love and those we also love to hate! Hudson, from her Fixed series, has been on my top five book-boyfriend lists since I first discovered that series a long time ago. He still is, but boy did Weston King give him a good run for his status!

I enjoyed reading/listening to Dirty Sexy Player, but absolutely devoured Dirty Sexy Games! Both books in this duet were originally released as audible originals, but not to worry, book one is already out as an eBook and book two will be available in November. But you do not have to wait, as the audio is now available! Fair warning, my review may be a bit spoiler-ish if you have not read and/or listened to the first book in the duet. Go read/listen to it first.

We pick up right where we left off in the first book. Elizabeth and Weston have come to realize their feeling, desires and wants are the same thing. Could they truly have their happily ever after or is it already too late? Weston’s past is back in full force and one he can no longer deny, but truly desires as well. Elizabeth has her dreams at the tip of her fingertips, but will the cost be too high?

I have to say, Weston stole my heart in this book. Once he realized what he wanted, he wore his feelings on his sleeve. There is no doubt what he feels for Elizabeth. The first half of this book was everything I love about romance! I swooned so much! But this is Laurelin Paige and she likes to throw in curveballs and boy, did she! Elizabeth was loving, caring and so selfless. Though there is angst, it was so different than other stories by this author.

This story was sweet and charming with angst thrown in and I loved it! The Narrators, Elena Wolfe and Jacob Morgan, were Elizabeth and Weston. They brought this story to life for me. They made me feel every word they read and I never wanted it to end.

4.5 stars! Listened and reviewed for Sultry Sirens Book Blog.

Happy listening!

With all of the bombs that were dropped at the end of Dirty Sexy Player I was a bit scared to see how this was all going to play out. Weston King has some secrets to get out in the open and Elizabeth has some decisions to make. What better way to air these things than during their two week honeymoon?? After their "fake" wedding, that maybe wasn't so fake.

Super sexy with a lot of heart. While some things took a bit too long to get out of people's mouths this was just the right kind of follow-up book. Elizabeth can still be an ice-queen. This is the persona that she has perfected and one that will get her far in the business world but she is also falling in love with her fake life. She wants it all but she may not be able to get it. Weston is dirty as ever. He has a one-track mind generally, but he has to learn to open up and share himself with another person. The problem is he doesn't know how and is two weeks really going to be long enough for him to learn to share.

I enjoyed this book as I have will all books set in this world. There were times I laughed at something ridiculous that Weston said, times I swooned and times my heart hurt because some tough choices needed to be made. I am also a big fan of cameos from other characters and too see the other side of things that have already played out. And I just love how no one can outplay Donovan, the keeper of the secrets and knower of literally everything and the kinky boss who just loves to have the last word. I can't wait for more from this world.

One of those books where I wanted to throw it all the wall and jump up and down on it. Seriously pouting and sulking and angry with the world.

The sham marriage between Elizabeth Dyson and Weston King isn’t really a sham at all because they do actually love each other. They just haven’t admitted it but then the bomb has been dropped and the couple need to decide what needs to give.

The honeymoon was soooooo sexy. I want to go to Hawaii and get lai-ed. The time bomb keeps ticking, my heart rate speeding as I tried to find a solution for them to be together.

The decision is made. The book thrown. I think I even swore at the cat.

Laurelin being Laurelin sorted it all out. Petulant pout turned into a satisfied smile.

I loved this duet! Really well written. Well thought out and planned. Super sexy characters.

Weston's mind seems to just automatically jump to conclusions, “why, Mrs. King. Did you book me for office ***? What a terribly kinky and amazing idea. Why didn’t I think of it?” I really liked this book, Weston was just all for his woman and I really loved that.

Weston and Elizabeth both were a surprise for me. We got introduced to them in Donovan and Sabrina's story and I got the impression they both needed to grow up some. After reading their story, I found there was much more depth to their characters as well as seeing them do some of that character growth in this final installment of their duet.

First, it isn't necessary to read Donovan and Sabrina's story first. This duet can stand on it's own. But, I do think you appreciate, not only the main characters but also the side characters more if you do read the Dirty Duet first. You definitely need to read Dirty Sexy Player first. That is Weston and Elizabeth's start as main characters.

For me, Weston turned from a too carefree player into a much more responsible man. At the end of Dirty Sexy Player, he had just learned that not only did he love his soon to be wife, but that he also had a 2 year old son he didn't know about. I feel that being faced with a serious decision at such a critical time forced him to grow up and realize what is truly important in life.

Elizabeth came off as a spoiled princess in the beginning. Once again, the author showed us there was more that meets the eye with her character. I like how we got to see her and Weston both grow individually but also as a couple. Elizabeth was faced with a very hard decision and the maturity she showed with dealing with that decision made me love her character.

I'm such a sucker for a good ending and I gotta say, this had a pretty fantastic ending. I also love what Donovan did at the end. I'm glad we get to keep seeing all these characters with each new Duet that will written. I can't wait for the next one. I actually don't know which of the guys is next but I'm looking forward to all of their stories.

Yeah, I was loving this series until the big bomb drop about Weston having a kid at the end of Dirty Sexy Player. This next in the series is basically consumed with Weston's kid and how he and Elizabeth are going to first overcome the fact that he has a kid, and how to live a life together with this surprise kid if he's going to move to France with Elizabeth and the company.

In general, I'm not a fan of the 'kid trope' and had I known that the series would end with it being all about that, I would never have started it. I ended up skipping sooooo much of this part of the story because I was just soooooo bored! I almost didn't want to finish it but I soldiered on.

Also, Weston seemed almost too good. He made such a drastic shift in his demeanor, started forgiving people, being an upstanding guy, totally not afraid of commitment anymore... i dunno, it didn't really seem all that believable near the end. Like he was too good to be true. I know, I know, it's a romance novel, but still, something about it just didn't feel authentic.

Still, it was a good read, well written, not exceptionally steamy or anything despite the pretty good sexy scenes, but the focus definitely shifts from the couple in this one to the kid and making the kid happy. So if you like stories with that element, you should deff read this.

DIRTY SEXY GAMES by Laurelin Paige is book Two in the Dirty Games Duet. This continues the story Weston 'Wes' King and Elizabeth Dyson. You should read the previous book to fully enjoy this book.
Weston is keeping a secret from Elizabeth that he is going to need to tell her about...it will be life changing for them. Elizabeth is having her own issue with a past Ex that is starting to come around. So their new road is hitting some bumps in the road.
I overall really enjoyed this book. Weston was a great 'book boyfriend' and Elizabeth was a great, strong leading lady.

Darn those arranged marriages that actually turn into real feelings. Incredibly inconvenient when that happens.

You just didn't plan for any of this, you haven't talked about the big stuff (kids, where you might see yourself living) or even the little things like allergies and musical choices. Your relationship is hot, there is chemistry (people have to believe you are really a couple, after all) and there is attraction that you act on...but the conversations you have when you meet someone? Nope, you don't have those, as it's not "real". I love the way this is handled, by the way. I won't tell you, as I am not mean, but it's a fun twist in the whole "pretend to be a couple" trope that makes it feel different and fresh.

So, when you realize you are in love with the man you married, and he feels the same about you, what the heck do you do? This was a sham, it had an end date, and there were no real feelings involved, so none of the hard decisions had to be made thinking of the other person.

I loved this aspect of Elizabeth and Weston's story. They had chemistry, and by the day of their wedding, they had love...but what they didn't have was any idea how they were supposed to make things work in order for them to go on from where they were (married) to actually having a real relationship. There are other major issues that are thrown at them, and while telling you would be a spoiler, I can say they are not small issues...they are the big, life changing ones that have the potential of ending a relationship that isn't serious.

I loved this book. I adored Weston and his sense of fun, and the joy he gets from life and also getting to see him be himself as an adult. heck, there is a point in the book where he comes to realize himself that this has happened...and, it makes it interesting to watch his character evolve.

And, yet again, the hero in this book is pure perfection, but the heroine is strong, she is capable, she is more successful that the hero. I love that little shift in the expected balance of power. I also love that, while this is very much with the times, it's also something that is present in all of Ms. Paige's books. She enjoys her hot, slightly damaged, intense alpha males (the letter from Donovan at the end of this comes to mind here)...but she also makes sure that her women can hold their own. They aren't whiny, or afraid, or so in awe of the powerful males around them that they are not able to make their own decisions. This works so well for the time we are in now, and still feels authentic as this has been an element in all of the titles by this author.

I also appreciated that the solution to their rather difficult problem felt authentic. There are so many books out there where the author puts major obstacles in the way of the characters that seem to magically disappear with no issues or damage done to the relationship. This is not a concern in this one, as the issues feel real, they are big, and the resolution works.

Yet again, the book is by Laurelin Paige and I absolutely loved and recommend it.

I liked this book better than the first one. And while some parts were a little expected I was overall very pleased with the book.

NO SPOILERS!

Dirty Sexy Games was a super sexy and entertaining conclusion to Weston and Elizabeth's story and the Dirty Games Duet, and I absolutely loved it! The storyline and characters were amazing, and I loved Laurelin Paige's writing style. The Dirty Games Duet has definitely been my favorite from Laurelin Paige so far, and I'm so excited to read more from her, especially more stories in the Dirty Universe!

Weston King and Elizabeth Dyson have been my favorite hero and heroine from Laurelin Paige so far, and I absolutely loved them and their story with all of my heart. Weston and Elizabeth were more vulnerable and relatable in Dirty Sexy Games, and I felt a very strong connection with them. I once again loved Weston and Elizabeth's personalities and smoking hot chemistry together, and how their relationship progressed throughout. I also loved reading the book from both Weston and Elizabeth's point of view, and all of their banter and interactions with each other. Even though the plot wasn't super exciting and was a little predictable at times, I still loved everything from beginning to end. Laurelin Paige truly did a phenomenal job with the Dirty Games Duet, and I was very happy with the conclusion to Weston and Elizabeth's story.

Dirty Sexy Games was a sexy, entertaining, and satisfying conclusion to the Dirty Games Duet and Weston and Elizabeth's story, and I would HIGHLY recommend it! I have very much enjoyed the entire Dirty Universe that Laurelin Paige has created so far, and the Dirty Games Duet has definitely been my favorite to date. I can't wait to read the Dirty Sweet Duet next year!

“I was a queen. That was my place in the world. With or without a king, I was a queen. I’d be a queen no matter how this ended. I had to remember that.”

Dirty Sexy Games by Laurelin Paige is the sexy and enticing conclusion to the spin-off duet of Dirty Filthy Rich Men. Loyalties are tested and hearts will fracture in Weston and Elizabeth’s journey to their highly anticipated happily ever after. I loved how Ms. Paige kept us on edge throughout this entire seductive and emotional adventure. I absolutely adored these characters from the very beginning. Their chemistry has always been scorching HOT and their banter was witty and so enjoyable. You really can’t go wrong with an author like Laurelin Paige behind the wheel. She is sure to provoke, frustrate, tantalize, and mesmerize you with her sensual and exciting love stories. All I can say is…I WANT MORE!

I absolutely LOVED the conclusion to Weston and Elizabeth’s story. In Dirty Sexy Player they started out as a business arrangement and couldn’t help fall madly in love. And then, just as it seemed they were going to ride off into the sunset together, a bomb was dropped that totally altered the future they were planning.

So in Dirty Sexy Games, not only did they take this time to get to know each other but they aired out all their secrets. But still they didn’t know if their love would be enough. There was even a time I didn’t like Elizabeth very much. She nearly broke Weston and I don’t think I could have forgiven her for that. But in the end, this sexy and caring, former ladies man and that beautiful and intelligent heiress found their true happily ever after and it was PERFECT!
