ReaganMy husband and I know how to fight. We perfected the art when running against each other for Congress. But that fighting revealed a passion for each other that we couldn’t deny. Battle lines were erased as enemies became lovers. But now we’re in the fight of our lives – we’re battling a smear campaign as he runs for governor. And again, we find ourselves drawn to do what we do best. I won’t … drawn to do what we do best. I won’t be controlled, even by the man who owns my heart. But as tensions escalate to a boiling point, I discover there is one place I like checking my defiance – the bedroom. As Jude takes his dominance over me to a new level, I discover that submission can bring me to places I’ve ever known.

5 STAR Review by Jodi for Ruby Red Romance Review
I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love Reagan and Jude. I loved this amazing story. I’ve been to political love stories lately and this book was right on the mark. Chell Bliss and Brenda Rothert did a fantastic job with this collaboration.
Jude was everything I wanted an more. He was honest, sexy, loyal, and devoted. He was devoted to his wife and those he campaigned for. I fell hard for him. He’s a good man. Fighting for the rights of those that seem to get overlooked, our Veterans. His character was complex, but to the point. And he was an amazing husband, even though his thoughts got the better of him at times.
Reagan, I love her. She’s smart, ambitious, and determined. She knows how to push Jude’s buttons and has no problem doing so. They complement each other so well. Where Jude is hard, Reagan is soft. Where Jude lacks patience, Reagan makes up for it is spades. Regan is exactly what I picture when you think of a politicians wife, only she’s better. In all seriousness, I love Reagan.
This story was a quick read for me, but one I enjoyed from start to finish. It was hot when it came to parts, exciting in others, and made me wish I was Reagan thought out most (read the book…you’ll understand why). I loved this book and I think you will too. Please check it out.
What a great ending to Jude and Reagan’s Story!!!!
I love that these two are so passionate about everything that they do. Including their work for their country running for governor Jude is so focused on winning that he is campaigning as hard as he can trying to hit every point in every county that he can.
Will that take a toll on his relationship with his wife Reagan or do you think she withstand everything that comes with being a politicians wife.
Politics is everything Reagan’s ever known since her father was in politics and until she met Jude when she was running for office that’s what her life consisted of as well.
Will their love story overcome all the obsticals of the nitty gritty political world? You’ll have to read this amazing book to find out…
You need to read this series in order tho or you will not understand this book.
5 star read ladies!
This is the 3rd book and final book in the Series.
Republican Senator Jude Tritan is running for Governor of Illinois. Hi wife Reagan is a conservative and supports his run for office, or does she.
You get a glimpse of the life of politician on the campaign trail. However, I think there could have been more. Was there a lot of sex. Yes! Jude and Reagan had issues, and it seemed that the only way they knew how to communicate was to have sex.
I liked the book, but would have enjoyed it more if it had more substance. It started with a steamy sex scene and it got to the point that I skimmed those parts of the book. I wanted them to be able to communicate like adults, to talk thru their issues. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good sex scene. However, there needs to be more for me to truly love a book. I volunteered to review an Advance Reader Copy of this book for an honest review.
I was so pleased to be back in Jude and Reagan’s world and once again the writing duo of Chelle Bliss and Brenda Rothert didn’t disappoint in fact for me they left the best for last, once I started Dirty Defiance there was no putting it down till I had read the very last line.
Jude and Reagan have been married for 4 years and not much has changed in there relationship he is still the boss in the bedroom and she is still determined to follow her career path but with him running for governor strains are put on the relationship and then Reagan’s mum has a health scare which puts everyone’s life into prospective.
This couple are so much fun to read about and the writing skills of the authors involved make you feel part of the world of politics which seems to go hand in hand with scandal. One of the things I really love about this book apart from the plot and the characters is you have no idea who wrote what part of this story and for me that is a sure sign these authors are not only talented as individuals they are very talented as a duo. If you love a book that’s full of love, intrigue and a lot of passion you need to one click and yes each book can be read as a stand-alone but I think you would get so much more out of them if you read them all. Another 5 Star read from Brenda Rothert and Chelle Bliss.
You know how when you get to the last book in a series you want to take you time, savor it, enjoy each and every interaction between your favorite characters and make it last as long as possible?
You can’t do that with this one!
I flew through it, it was well paced keeping me turning pages waiting to see what would happen next.
The heat is off the charts, but what do you expect with these two characters and these two authors working together?
Dirty Defiance was everything I hoped it would be, I was engrossed by the end of chapter one and read it in one day.
I’m sad to see the characters go but the way it ended was just right!
Chelle and Brenda did an amazing job with this series. I love how both Jude and Reagan stayed true to who they were throughout the whole series. I love Reagan’s spunk. I love how we were shown the behind the scenes reality of what could happen when someone runs for a political office. I could not put this book down. I highly recommend it to others.
First let me start by saying I LOVE JUDE!!! I was beyond ecstatic when I found out Chelle & Brenda where giving us more of Jude and Reagan. They have always been a favorite couple of mine, between their beliefs, they way they fight for them, fight with each other, but especially love each other. Never gets old. Politics is dirty business in this day and age, and it’s no different here. But theirs I’ll always come back for. Lot of stress going on, but a whole lot of chemistry going on too. And “relaxation”. Do yourself a favor and jump all over this book and this series. You absolute will love it!!!
