Audiobook Review – Dirty Sexy Saint by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde

07/20/2016

Dirty Sexy Saint

Dirty Sexy Saint by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde Narrated by Sophie Eastlake

Contemporary Romance. Stands Alone. The rest of the Series has related characters.

As a fan of both Carly Philips and Erika Wilde, I was excited to read Dirty Sexy Saint, a USA Today bestseller. The premise sounded right up my alley, so when I saw it was on audible, I grabbed it. Ok, honestly, I don’t think I really ever read the blurb. But with those two authors and that title, how can I not click?

While the narrator’s voice was OK for the female, when she did the male parts, I couldn’t stand it. But I got over that and still got into the hot little story.

Samantha Jamieson is basically a spoiled little rich girl. She has been dating a guy for a while but doesn’t feel very strongly about him and is about to break up with him, when she overhears her father talking to him about marrying her so he can take over the family business. When Samantha realizes she is being forced into an arranged marriage at 26, she leaves with nothing more than the clothes on her back.

She proceeds to the other side of town where she goes into a bar, Kincaids, and orders every dirty drink possible. Soon she is drunk, broke and had no place to go. That’s where “Saint Clay” steps in. Clay is the gorgeous owner of the bar, and he has a habit of taking in strays. After she puked all over her fancy clothes, Clay took care of her and put her to bed in his bed like a gentleman. With no other real choice for a good guy, and thinking she would run home to daddy by the end of her shift, Clay offered her a job waitressing. Surprisingly, she turned out to be a hard worker who is much more down to earth than expected from her upbringing.

Samantha wants the gorgeously tattooed Clay. Clay wants Samantha, but he doesn’t want to dirty up her fancy innocence. But she lets him know she wants it…

“You’re playing with the hottest kind of fire there is, Cupcake.”

He held off as much as he could.

“I don’t want to be a good girl anymore. I want to be very bad with you, Saint Clay.”
“I’m not a saint, Cupcake. Especially when it comes to fucking.”
“That’s good, because I don’t really want a saint…I want a sinner.”
If she wanted a sinner, well, sinning was what he did best.

That’s what she needed. Not someone who was afraid to get dirty during sex. She wanted dirty…Clay will give it to her.

“I don’t do soft and gentle and sweet. I like to control and fuck so hard and deep you’ll scream and be sore the next day. I’d want you on your knees, with my hands fisted in your hair while you suck my cock, and then I’d bend you over this table, spread your legs wide, and fuck you all over again.”

The chemistry and connection between the couple, and the ease that she fit into his life was amazing. But when secrets threaten, and her past wealthy life comes in to play, and his past threatens to destroy everything, can the rich girl and the guy from the other side of the tracks make it?

“He left no part of her untouched. Physically, he owned her. Emotionally, he felt so right, so much a part of her. So inevitable.”

Likes:

  • A fun, sexy, quick easy read.
  • Totally hot.
  • I loved all of the side characters and I really want to read about Clay’s two brothers.
  • Clay was the perfect mix of hot, alpha, and sweet.
  • I loved that Samantha didn’t turn out to be a spoiled rich girl, I really liked her.
  • I’d love to read about Katrina.

Dislikes:

  • 3rd person from both the male and female POV.
  • I hated when the narrator did her Clay voice.
  • Some of the sexual terms used were awful: “weeping flesh”? Um no. And ‘pearl of flesh nestled in her folds”, please, no!

The Down & Dirty:

There was so much to love about Dirty Sexy Saint. I loved the characters, the sex was hot, Clay was awesome. It had a great mix of heat, humor, heart and banter that I enjoyed. But the 3rd person dual POV made me feel detached from the story. It may not have been as bad if I read it vs. listening, but it just never fully grabbed me into the story. That, plus the narrator trying to sound like a man (badly) when Clay is speaking, and some of the sexual terms like “weeping flesh”, brought down what could have been an amazing read from authors that I really have enjoyed in the past. In this case, I would recommend reading over listening.

Rating: 3.5 stars, 4.25 Heat, 3 narration

- @catherinecowlesauthor has been a favorite of mi - @catherinecowlesauthor has been a favorite of mine for the last few years. In 2022, the entire Tattered and Torn series released, and I loved every single one of them. I listened to them all on audio, and they each deserve a place on my Best of 2022 list, especially Fractured Sky, which I gave a rare 5+++ stars to.

They also have the most beautiful covers!

The first two audiobooks in this unrelated series The first two audiobooks in this unrelated series were on my Best of 2021 List, and Seatmate by @carabastone has continued the streak for my Best of 2022 list. The full cast narration and the production of this “audioplay” is what made Seatmate a 5-star read for me. I really felt like I was eavesdropping on a real conversation. This was a quick and fun listening experience, and though it’s nothing epic, it stood out to me in 22.

I enjoyed The Back Nine by Rachel Blaufeld. It’s I enjoyed The Back Nine by Rachel Blaufeld. It’s rare to find books about older couples and I so appreciate when an author writes a sexy one. I had a couple of issues with it, and I really struggled with the heroine’s name, James. Every time I read her name (and the female MC for the next book is Billy) my brain had to catch up for a second that it was a girl.

Top Pick of 2022: @kristenashleybooks has been on Top Pick of 2022: @kristenashleybooks has been on all 11 lists (since 2012), and for good reason!
Taking the Leap by Kristen Ashley is my favorite book she has written in a while. It very much focuses on Alex and Rix and it didn’t feel like I had to remember a ton of other characters. I felt their chemistry and how perfect they are for each other. 
I love how Kristen handled a disabled hero. This is one you don’t want to miss! Have you read it yet?

Another Top Pick of 2022! The Love Hypothesis by @ Another Top Pick of 2022! The Love Hypothesis by @alihazelwood lived up to all the hype. I absolutely loved the smart, slow-burn romance that subtly addressed a lot of issues without ever banging you over the head with them. This is one of those books you might be able to recommend to even the non-romance reader even though it’s very much a romance. It just has that “something special”.

I am usually very stingy with my five star reads, I am usually very stingy with my five star reads, but A Long Time Coming by @meghanquinnbooks had everything I ever want in a book. Lia and Breaker’s nerdy friendship morphed into such a great romance, but it took its time, and I loved that; I thought the pace was just perfect. I listened to A Long Time Coming with a HUGE smile on my face the whole time. If I could hug this audiobook I would!

The duet narration from @mallonerin and @j.f.harding made it even better.

The Other Half of the Grave by @jfrostauthor is an The Other Half of the Grave by @jfrostauthor is another of my top reads for 2022. 

I read the first book of the Night Huntress Series, Halfway to the Grave in 2009, and I can honestly say it’s still in my top 3 series ever, so when I saw she was writing the first book again from the male POV this time, I was a little nervous but also excited. Thankfully I had nothing to be nervous about! I absolutely LOVED it and I am so glad to hear she is continuing to do Bone’s POV for the 2nd book as well!

Another 2022 Top Favorite is Carrie Soto is Back b Another 2022 Top Favorite is Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid.  I am still blown away by the fact that this non-tennis fan loved this all-tennis book so much. I loved that Carrie Soto is Back tackled so many issues women in sports face, especially women of color. This powerful story really illustrated the costs of greatness, and the sacrifices one needs to make in order to make it to the top. The narration made it even better, and the tennis had me on the edge of my seat! (I don’t even like tennis!)
