Long

This book couple have been about 4 hours shorter. Yes, I get that the FMC didn’t want to get married to someone who didn’t love her, but how many hours do we need for this? HOURS of this. I liked the story and performance, so if you can manage way too much time spent on why things won’t work, and then once we decide things will work, too much time spent on multiple epilogues, then this is a good book for you. It looks like the rest of the books in the series are really long too, so I won’t be listening to them.

Expected the sex scenes, but...

Loved the story. But I'm a Romantic. However, the sex scenes were too much, too graphic and way too many. Will definitely not be buying the rest of the series. Felt like she could have done the story without so much graphic sex.

Great love story

well written love story with characters who have hangup to overcome. but love conquers all.

easy listening

lots more fun

rather enjoyable light and even funny, with some damp eyes if your open

Boring And Horrible Narration

I don’t get it. Why do these authors think it’s not terribly boring to hear every move the male and female lead characters make. I get that they’re setting a picture so that the reader can visualize the story but holy crap, this book went way overboard in its wordiness. I skipped 6 chapters in the middle, and didn’t miss anything. The narration by Virginia Rose was whiny at best, and her male voice was lacking. The story had potential but that got lost in the very beginning. Seriously, skip this one and go read SEP’s Chicago Stars series. You’ll thank me for the recommendation.

great audio

loved the book and loved the audio even better! another great story by Crystal Kaswell

A fun steamy read that will heat you up!

Whew! This book was fan me good while reading it and listening to it on Audible was even more steamy. There’s something about hearing the words that makes them more appealing and Virginia Rose did a great job narrating this book. Demanding billionaire Tech mogul, Blake Sterling makes the wide eyed, aspiring artist Kat Wilder an offer she would be a fool to refuse. She realizes that she is not ready for what she agrees to, but has the best interests at heart to make her decision. She tries to guard her heart while peeling the many layers of Blake back in hopes to win his heart and to be with him. This book has scandal, heartache, steamy romance, and a happily ever all wrapped up in a bow. I really liked Kat and Lizzy’s sister/mother like relationship, but I love how strong willed and independent they both are. They aren’t interested in Blake’s money even though it can help make life easier for them. Krystal does a great job at getting you to feel or experience what the character is feeling or experiencing. I definitely could feel and can relate to Kat and Blake on their feelings on losing someone they loved and the grief they both experienced. This book also makes you wish you had a Blake of your own. I definitely recommend this book and wish Dirty Boss was on Audible.

Marriage of convenience turns to love

This is the first book from this author that I have listened to and I loved it! Blake is a man that wants to marry for a very specific reason. Kat is a woman just trying to make ends meet while taking care of her sister. The two come together in a situation that shouldn’t work but the more they continue, the bigger their love grew.

Virginia Rose did an amazing job with the narration and bringing the characters to life! Definitely worth the listen.

Boy Needs Girl Needs Boy

Dirty Deal is a fake fiance romance. Kat is struggling to make ends meet while also getting her little sister off to college. Blake is the silent and broody millionnaire who propositions her to be his fake fiance. Kat quickly realizes there are many layers to Blake and can't help but fall for him. Blake is very endearing towards Kat and it's obvious from their first interaction he cares deeply for her. Now to break through emotional barriers as they learn each other's quirks and build a relationship when a lie is the foundation.

Virginia Rose did a fabulous job narrating. She was able to flow from one character to the next with emotion and each was easily distinguishable.

Satisfying listen with great narration

Crystal Kaswell's Dirty Deal has a lot more heart than the write up and title will let you think it does. Kat and Blake don't seem like the perfect matches for each other, but they really do complement each other and help each other grow out of the rut that they are in.

Arranged marriage books can sometimes be very dark and involve more sordid plots but this one does not. Yes, it is a fake-finance/arranged marriage book and Blake is looking for convenience rather than love, but he actually cares very much about Kat from the very beginning, and their relationship blossoms with mutual trust and admiration, caring, and ultimately devotion.

Virginia Rose does a great job narrating the audiobook. She really expresses the emotions of the characters well, and helps you get really into the story.
