A head chef. His assistant. And a night of fiery passion.
I’ve had a crush on my incredibly hot, terrifying and unobtainable boss since long before I even started working under him. My daydreams are filled with dirty fantasies about him as there’s no chance any of them will become reality. Because you really shouldn’t mix business with pleasure.Until you do.The moment Lucien Dumont, outstanding … pleasure.
Until you do.
The moment Lucien Dumont, outstanding chef and owner of Haze, set his piercing blue grey eyes and skilled hands on me, everything changed.
One night sparked the flame between us and now I’m helpless against the wildfire flaring in his eyes. My body craves to be engulfed, but my heart yearns for something out of reach. Something impossible for a Chef de Partie to expect from her boss.
Yet a question torments me. Does Lucien want the same thing I do?
Whatever the answer, I have a choice to make: stand the heat and stay in the kitchen or walk away and get burnt?

Man, I absolutely adore these fast-paced, steamy novellas from Sarah Bailey. They are SUPER hot but also laced with a poignant sweetness throughout. So, basically, you get all the feels AND some super-hot sexy times. What’s not to love? Lucien is kinda rough around the edges, but that makes him that much sexier when he gets the protective feels for Riley. She’s sweet but also goes after what she wants and is the perfect balance for Lucien. If you’re looking for your next boyfriend, Lucien is an excellent choice! Happy reading.
This is my first read by Sarah and I am over the moon happy with it. I loved how Riley and Lucien came together, worked out the kinks, and stayed together – their personalities are the perfect match together. This is definitely a high steam level read, but it didn’t take away from plot or make the book seem trashy at all – which I loved. This couple took the heat out of the kitchen and set it to broil in the bedroom. I also loved the realistic happily for now ending – it definitely is the perfect ending to this story. Sarah has gained a new faithful reader thanks to this read, I am already setting up my next read by her.

Things are on fire but it isn’t the food
Dirty Chef is the third book in the Dirty Series and boy is it nice and filthy, but in all the right ways. This is a very steamy and smokin’ hot romantic novella the will definitely set your Kindle on fire and make you blush. But it is a great story with wonderful characters in Lucien and Riley. They both have wanted and fantasized about each other since Riley came to work in Lucien’s kitchen. But as they are boss/employee this is off-limits. However, one night all that raging passion and sexual tension finally explodes and they come together for a night that is so hot that it is amazing they did not set the sheets on fire. But not all is right the next day as there are questions about what happened and how they feel. Riley runs and it will be up to Lucien to decide if he wants to follow his heart or not.
This is another well written book with great characters and a wonderful story-line.
I received an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
A fun fast pace and intriguing read! The story line is well-developed, emotionally deep, well written, funny, and steamy with drama and ups and downs. Loveable characters; their chemistry is instant and off the charts! Definitely recommended!

Dirty chef is another hot short book by Sarah Bailey in the Dirty Dom series.
Really loved Riley and Lucian stories.
Riley have dream to work at Lucian’s restaurant and got the job. Problem is she always has a crush on him even before working for him. Problem is since he’s now her boss, it would be kind of inapropriate.
Lucian his also attracted to her from the beginning. One night he proposed to her to help her get better as a chef but one think led to another and everything change.
I have received an arc of this book from the author.
Chef one of my favorite words. So is Lucians apparently. So he has a attraction to Riley ever since he interviewed her. So three months into this relationship of boss/employee being yelled that seem to be a normal thing. Like he said everyone else. So one night after staying extra long after the chef of cleaning up he finds her in the kitchen. Invite her upstairs for dinner. From then on everything goes extremely out of sorts and steamy. If they want already in a place that has exhaust fans for stoves they probably would’ve burnt the house down. Of course the dilemma is having a relationship with your boss. How does that work with the other coworkers? Are you an idiot for having an affair seems like an affair with your boss. So many questions so many steamy situations that could have an answer. Develop characters and realistic situations in the workplace are definitely things that needed to be tackled. A good read.

I’ve come to realize that Sarah Bailey’s book contains a great deal of chemistry and heat. And omg, it definitely kept my entire self engrossed and intrigued. Lucien had been attracted to Riley since the day she started and Riley felt the same way about Lucien. When one night opened that door and they fell through with blazes it also let in all the angst and insecurities. Filled with human emotion and angst, this was a great read.
This story was intensely HOT. Lucien the head chef has it bad for his employee….chef in training Riley. Riley always worshiped and had a major crush on her boss Lucien. A chance meeting alone after hours at the restaurant started an intense flame between the two that went out of control. The chemistry between the two was intense. It was nice to see their relationship progress and I was waiting for some major drama to go down that would mess things up…didn’t happen which was great. Absolutely loved this book. I think this one was waaaaaaaaaay hotter than Riley’s brother story from Dirty Cop.

This is book three in the Dirty series. One is not supposed to mix business with pleasure but sometimes, it is so tempting, could it be worth it? This book is a shorter story but there is no shortage of sexy, steaminess and details. A great story of how sometimes that gamble, that chance that you take can change your life and be worth it.

They are learning about each other but also loving each other. I enjoyed this story every much and look forward to the next book by Sarah Bailey.

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. Lucien and Riley took it to the bedroom, and then back to the kitchen. He’s as in control in the bedroom as he is in his kitchen. She is quiet, and a bit intimidated by him in the beginning. But he brings out her wild child. And her smart mouth. These two are so hot together, a taboo – he’s her boss. And it scares her. I loved reading every single page of this book, the best so far of the Dirty Series.

Lucien has wanted Riley since she first started in his kitchen, but he has fought acting on his feelings because she is his employee. Riley has wanted Lucien, but always thought it was impossible. One night after work though that all changes. After a passion filled night Riley is unsure what Luciens intent is so she runs and ends whatever relationship was building in fear of her reputation and rejection. These two have a fight on their hands in order for their relationship to work between fears and outsiders everything seems impossible. These two were great together and the story was fantastic. I can not wait to read what the author comes out with next.

This was an amazing story! I loved every single page of it. Lucian and Riley have a great connection and major sizzling chemistry in the kitchen and out. The two were perfect for each other and I so loved Lucian’s dirty mouth. This was a well written, super steamy, and a definite page turner of a read. I will definitely be reading more from this author and rereading this book.
OMG, this book was crazy hot and steamy! Riley works in the kitchen of her idol, Chef Lucien Dumont. He is demanding, exacting, rude, and hotter than she knows how to handle. Her shy demeanor leaves her unable to believe that such a man would ever be interested in her. But Lucien has been attracted to her since the moment he interviewed her, several month ago. Finally alone, late one night, they give into their feelings. But Riley isn’t sure she can handle the pressures of working for AND having a relationship with her boss. After breaking both their hearts and spending two miserable weeks apart, Riley decides she’d rather have Lucien as her boyfriend than her boss. Lucien refuses to let her career suffer, vowing to protect her from gossip and innuendo. Lucien is the ultimate alpha, and Riley is just soft and submissive enough to be the perfect complement to him. At the same time, she draws out the softer side of his personality, allowing him to be a more rounded person. Add in lots of sexy times, and this book is a great read!

Lucien is Rileys boss. She needs this job, he needs her working skills. So better do not mix sex with work. But they do. And now?
I loved the fact that they both fit together so well. Its very difficult to find someone when you work as a chef. Shifts , hard work and less free time. So I enjoyed that they both work together. And that they’re totally different characters in and out of the kitchen. I always enjoy dirty talk, and this book has a lot. I also enjoyed the strawberries :). Nice to read something special . Lucien is very clear in his character, once he knows what he wants. He protects Riley on whatever it costs. And Riley is sweet and likable. Sure this is a Novella with a little more than 100 Pages, but it has all you need for a hot filthy read. Nice characters, a great story some background a hater and love that burns on high flames
