A scarred fighter.
A girl with rules.
One night of unbridled passion.
There are three things you need to know about Elizabeth Bennett: she’s smart as a whip, always in control, and lives by a set of carefully crafted rules. She’s learned the hard way that people you love the most always hurt you in the end. But then she meets Declan Blay, the new neighbor at her apartment complex.
A tattooed British street fighter, he’s the campus bad boy she’s supposed to avoid, but when he saves her from a frat party gone bad, all her rules about sex and love fly out the window. She gives him one night of unbridled passion, but he longs for more.
With only a cardboard-thin wall separating their bedrooms, he dreams of possessing the vulnerable girl next door forever.
One night. Two damaged hearts. The passion of a lifetime.
A modern love story inspired by Pride and Prejudice
Dirty English is a full-length stand-alone 75,000 word novel with a swoony, heartfelt HEA.

From Wall Street Journal Best-selling Author Ilsa Madden-Mills comes a full-length novel about HOT British alphas.
A smokin’ hot British player…
A jilted girl…
One night of mistaken identity…
Two weeks before her wedding, Remi Montague’s fiancé drops her faster than a drunken sorority girl in stilettos. Armed with her best friend and a bottle of tequila, she hops a plane to London to drown her sorrows before fall semester begins at Whitman University.
She didn’t plan on attending a masquerade party. She sure didn’t plan on waking up next to the British bad boy who broke her heart three years ago–the devastatingly handsome and naked Dax Blay. Furthermore, she has no clue how they acquired matching tattoos.
Once back at Whitman together, they endeavor to pretend they never had their night of unbridled passion in London.
But that’s damn hard to do when you live in the same house…
One night. Two damaged hearts. The passion of a lifetime.
A modern love story inspired by Romeo and Juliet

SPIDER
From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ilsa Madden-Mills comes a new adult romance about a flawed hero and the woman he can’t forget.
“She crossed my path and changed my whole direction.”
He called himself Spider.
I just knew him as the sinfully gorgeous guy with eyes of fire that fate sat next to me on the airplane.
I didn’t know who he really was…British rock star…my stepbrother.
He kissed me because he thought we’d never see each other again. We would.
Everyone warned me about him.
They told me he was ruthless and cold and screwed up.
They said he’d leave me with a hole in my heart.
Maybe I should have listened.
Maybe I should have built up a fortress to keep him out.
But I crumbled instead.
They say an unbreakable thread connects those who are destined to meet. If that’s true, then the moment he sat next to me, we were bound together forever.
He just had to figure it out before it’s too late…

Loved it!

Dax did not reach out because Remi was the one that made him feel and that shit scared him. Fast forward a year and by chance they run into each other. Those feelings and concerns come crashing back quickly. However, things are never simple and the past has secrets. “Use pain to make yourself stronger. Use heartbreak to make yourself wiser.”
Book 3 – Spider3.5/star

Spider kisses her to take her mind off of it (one really hot kiss). However much Rose liked that kiss, Spider the Rockstar just got the mile-high offer from the hot stewardess. Of course the a$$hole accepted. Happy to be landing and away from him, Rose texts her mom to find she is there to meet her and her new husband…and surprise the new step-brother that was just on the plane with her. Well dang! It just got very awkward. “You’re mine, Rose, always will be.”
Overall Review:4/star
I really enjoyed re-reading these three fun and steamy (stand-alone) books. The characters have grit and angst that you can feel coming from the pages. All are a little broken from life and find comfort in each other. College age/ MF Romance
Dirty English
Declan is into underground fighting and is working on opening a gym while finishing college. Elizabeth is living her life by her own rules, although it’s a shell of what she would like to be. Declan has to help Elizabeth to heal from her past, and help her learn to trust again. It was a fast and insta-love, but sometimes you need that, and today was one of those days. Both Declan & Elizabeth had overcome difficult pasts and I hope they get to have a long HEA. Since it felt like a quick read, I’m excited to read Filthy English and hopefully get a glimpse of them.
Filthy English
At the beginning of this book, we meet Remi. She has traveled to London to enjoy her honeymoon…alone. Then she sees a man who is “hotter than a billy goat with a blow torch” and wonders if he can be her rebound. After their first kiss, they realize that they know each other and that they’ve been down this road before, and it didn’t end well. Fate, being the fickle witch that she is, keeps throwing Dax & Remi together. Maybe they’ll get it right?
Spider
This was every bit as perfect as I had hoped it could be. I’ve always wanted to know Spider’s story and it came with the added bonus of a step-brother romance, which is my favorite guilty pleasure. I feel like Spider’s story was perfectly told, and I’m glad the poor tortured soul was able to find peace and be truly happy.
