He’ll do anything to have her…

Her virginity.

His offer is simple. Six figures. Thirty days. Him introducing her to every kind of pleasure.
It’s ridiculous. … days. Him introducing her to every kind of pleasure.
It’s ridiculous. The British businessman is richer than sin and hotter than hell. He can have any woman he wants. Why her?
And why is she desperate to fulfill his every desire? There’s something about his dark eyes, his deep voice, his firm touch… her body knows something she doesn’t. It responds for her.
Yes. One month as his. Then they part.
But what happens when he decides he hasn’t had enough?

Ian and Eve have so so many secrets……secrets that tear them apart. Secrets that change things. But these secrets also bring them back together.
This book was amazing. You can help but love these two broken souls. Both have serious trust issues. They both need control but in different ways. Their chemistry is explosive, and you can’t help but get caught in it.
This book has to be my favourite in this whole series. It’s raw and real and makes you want to find that person that rips you open and then sews you back together again. Epic

I had a rough start with this book. The writing felt so stilted at the beginning that I almost put it down, but I decided to keep going to see if it got any better.
It got so much better! This isn’t a book filled with flowery descriptions. It’s stripped down and raw, like the story itself. The more I moved into the story the more I appreciated it. There were no games, not in the words on the page or between the main characters. I really enjoyed it! Adding this to my favorite shelf to be read again and again.
Eve is in way over her head with debt. She is trying to take care of not only herself but a sister with medical issues as well. She writes in a diary online one in which Ian runs across that really draws him in having him go all out to meet her and then try to outbid anyone wanting to by her virtues. As these two connect, she agrees to his terms but will thirty days with Eve be enough for Ian and will it lead to the outcome that he wants. This story dew me in and had me in their corner.
A Welcome addition to the series. Neither wanted to fall in love but that is the beauty of it. You don’t have be looking for love for it to find you. Their relationship started with one month contact with no further contract when it ended.
Ian and Eve’s personality is like night vs day but some how they are perfect for each other and the chemistry between them is off the chart. This makes their relationship complex, intriguing and filled with amazing sexual release from all the tension in their lives.
Buckle up and get ready for an exciting ride.
I really loved this steamy romance between an older man and a younger woman….loved the storyline and the characters were fantastic and entertaining…a young woman keeps an online diary of all her thoughts and happenings in her life….when she is approached by a stranger with a shocking proposal she accepts as it is the ticket to all her dreams…

This book tells the story of Eve Miller, who works at a strip bar to support herself and her twin sister, and Ian Hunter, a British Tech billionaire offers Eve money to spend thirty days with him. This is a well written novel with strong characters and a plot filled with witty banter, emotional healing, and steamy chemistry.

I loved this book. Ian and Eve’s relationship starts out pretty much as a business deal. Both have had issues from the past. And you want them to find there happily ever after with each other. Even though there was an age difference between Ian and Eve it didn’t take away from the story. I could not put the book down. Crystal does a great job at getting you invested in the characters.
I was drawn to this book from the excerpts in Crystal Kaswell’s e-mail newsletters. There was something appealing about Ian, a wealthy business man, pursuing Eve, the college aged girl just trying to make it through the day. Generally, when I read books where an older man pursues an 18 year old girl, it’s a total trope filler. It’s filled with every possible stereotype. If that’s what you’re looking for, this book is not it.
I loved that Eve was not the perfect and flawless girl. I loved that she had overcome tragedies and experienced life. Ian, while he is a wealthy business man, his life hasn’t been easy or perfect. It’s clear he’s had to persevere, and he demonstrated it in his pursuit of Eve. Both Eve and Ian show moments of personal growth. They had to learn to trust someone new, outside their immediate circle. They both had to make some big decisions if they wanted to pursue their relationship.
I only wish the story was longer because I want to know how their life unfolds.
An Amazing Read! It is well written, quite the page turner, full of drama, and intrigue. It also has many great twists, turns, steam, witty banter, humour, and hotness. Well-developed story line with interesting, feisty, and strong characters you will love. The Chemistry between Evie and Ian is intense and is off the charts. This is really a great read and is strongly recommended.

Move over Christian Grey…helloooo Ian Hunt!! *fans self*
British businessman, Ian Hunt, is intrigued by the online journal of a woman. He searches for and discovers her identity when she posts that someone has offered to pay her to take her virginity. Ian has no intention of allowing that to happen…after all, he wants that chance. Eve is barely making ends meet and is buried under a mountain of her twin sister’s medical bills. She is seriously considering taking up a doctor on his proposal to take her virginity in exchange for money. Then she meets Ian Hunt…he proposes a 30-day companion agreement in exchange for the sought after virginity. As time goes by, we wonder if either party can walk away at the end. Definitely recommend a read/listen if you love the OMYW trope.
I voluntarily accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I recieved this book for Free to Give My True & Honest Review in the ebook format & as I was late in reading it I brought it in Audio.
And what a big deep emotional story by both bar tender Eve, who started to write a Diary not realising that people were able to read it online & that it wasn’t a secure private site..
And its where British – Afican Billionaire Ian whom we met in Dirty Husband as Shep’s best friend.
And as soon as Ian sees that someone wants to buy Eve’s virginity he becomes slightly obbsevive with wanting to be the one man to take it, especially after he tracks her down.
Things don’t go so smoothly all the way through especially when it was close to the end of their contacted month together & Eve starts reading his comments in the sides of The Handmaids Tale & feels betrayed that she can’t stay or know if she’d be able to forgive & trust him again…..
I did enjoy the audio though I did think that Shane East was not right to be the narrator as he didn’t sound much a Londond’er or that he was of Afican decent (sorry)
I loved this enticingly sensual romance. Eve and Ian are so different, in social standing and in age. Ian Hunt is a sexy British tech billionaire and Eve is an 18 yr old entering college, and is drowning in debt while taking care of her sister. She has a blog that she writes her secrets thoughts, and desires that Ian discovers. She is so different from his usual type, but he is drawn to the woman whose words speak to him and he needs to have her. When he finds out she’s a virgin, he can’t bear to let her give it to anyone else. He offers her a large sum of money for her to spend a month with him and give all her firsts to him. To help her sister and get out from their medical bills, she finally agrees. Ian introduces her to a sensual world of pleasure she never knew existed. They both find a level of intimacy, and desire that extends outside of the bedroom. But no matter how they begin to yearn for more, the expiration date on their passionate affair is fast approaching. They have different lives on different continents but it is the secrets that could really keep them apart for good. I became invested in both Eve and Ian right from the start, thanks in part to the flawless narration by Vanessa Edwin, and Shane East. They skillfully made these characters so clear to me, making me care for them quickly. Their inflections were breathtaking, and their chemistry was palpable as they made me laugh, cry, and swoon. I was completely lost in their storytelling, and I loved every minute of it!
Exploring their Dirty Desires
Dirty Desires is the fourth and I think final book in the Dirty Rich series and is Ian and Eve. The story-line is intriguing and was a good premise but for me the characters did not work for me completely.
Eve is eighteen years old, works at the bar of a strip club, supports herself and her sister and writes a personal blog. One day a customer offers her money in exchange for her V-card. She is not sure what to think so she writes about it in her blog.
Ian is thirty-six years old and stumbles on Eve’s blog post. He is intrigued and seeks her out to offer her something different. Thirty days together of a whole lot of fun, enjoyment, fulfillment and a sensual ride all the way. But it will only be for thirty days and not turn into anything else as he keeps his heart locked down tight since his ex-wife did a number on it. However, the thirty days turn into a lot more for both of them.
So I found myself skimming through a lot of the book and was disappointed by this. It stemmed from Eve’s character as I know she was supposed to be strong and independent but I wanted to kick her up the azz often. Ian was interesting and it was fun to see his heart start to unlock during the thirty days. In the end I am split on this book as I liked some parts of it but not others.
I received an ARC of this book from the author for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This is such a fun listen. It’s angsty, sultry goodness. The characters are flawed but lovable and most importantly relatable. It’s easy to see a part of yourself in Eve. She is just a slightly cooler more self-assured version of who I wanted to be at 18. And Ian sexy as he is rich, scarred Ian. He’s just delicious.
This is a slow burn but you get so many sexy moments leading to the climax it’s worth every second of anticipation. It’s the fourth book in a series but reads as a stand-alone so don’t be intimidated.
The narration is sublime. Shane East’s accent can set any headset ablaze. Vanessa Edwin just is Eve. The pair work so well together.
Dye the tips of your hair your fantasy shade, pull your combat boots out of the back of your closet, pour a gin and tonic and enjoy the sexy ride!
Dirty Desires
By: Crystal Kaswell
Narrated by: Vanessa Edwin, Shane East
Each book in this series just proves the talent of Crystal Kaswell. She can create characters that are flawed, easy to relate to, and make us fall in love with them! Dirty Desires is a little bit of an age difference taboo listen and it’s completely delicious! At18, Eve has much more responsibility than she should have at her age. To cope, she keeps an online blog. When Ian reads her entries, he is entranced, and obsessed with what she is about to do. So what does he do? He seeks her out, offers her a better deal and the two are put together for 30 days. This is where the story gets good. Can you be with someone for 30 days and just walk away when it’s over? I loved the flow of this book. It has real heart and I found myself relating to both Ian and Eve. Eve is ferocious, and I love that about her. She is bound and determined to make it, and Ian just may be her ticket. Ian is that broody, sensual man that carries his hurt with him. Protecting his heart is all he thinks he can do to stay safe. So what will happen when feelings develop? Kaswell is a master at writing, and every book is so captivating. I loved her way of grabbing us and investing our hearts in the outcome. This was a fantastic listen!
Eve is young and the choice of Vanessa Edwin to voice her is genius. Edwin has a voice that can play any age, but she nails Eve. Each emotion, from the cocky girl we first meet to the vulnerable blog writer, she gives it all to us. Add in the duet narration with Shane East as Ian, and the book is magic. He brings in air of class with Ian, with the broodiness. The two are incredible together and made the listen!

Fabulous Story & Narration Heartfelt & Sensual
Dirty Desires
By: Crystal Kaswell
Narrated by: Vanessa Edwin, Shane East
I loved this book, the story is amazing, it drew me right from the start and captivated me straight to the end. Crystal Kaswell is a gifted author, she creates interesting storylines and characters that are complex, realistic and easy to relate to. This is Ian and Eve’s story and I adored both of them, two people from different worlds wind up being perfect for each other in so many ways. Eve Miller lives with her sister, pays all the bills and is starting college soon. She is barely making ends meet working as a bartender at a strip club, when a customer offers to buy her virginity she considers it. Eve loves to write and pours her heart and soul into her blog, little does she know she gained an admirer, that admirer being Ian Hunt, a British Billionaire living in the States. He has never met Eve but when he reads that she is considering the offer for her virginity he feels the need to find her, stop her and make her his own offer. Since technology is his field he finds her with ease and is even more intrigued by her. Ian’s ex-wife broke his heart and it left him damaged, he has trust issues and does not do longterm relationships. But he has a proposition for Eve, he wants more than her virginity, he wants her for 30 days and offers a generous amount of money for her time. When the time is up hey walk away from each other. The money would make her life so much easier but she wonders if she can do it and and walk away with her heart intact when their time is up. Unable to pass on the offer she goes for it and wow, these two are made for each other, the chemistry between them is smoking and they are intellectually perfect for each other. There is a lot of great dialogue in this book including inner dialogue. Ian is definitely swoon worthy, inner demons and all. Eve is a strong independent woman and what I liked most about her is she was her own person and stayed true to herself. This book is beautifully plotted and there is never a dull moment, with plenty of drama, some angst, heartfelt moments and a sensual romance. Crystal Kaswell, thank you for another amazing story and emotional rollercoaster ride.
I listened to the Audible edition, Shane East and Vanessa Edwin are fabulous narrators and voice artists. They did an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life giving each their own voice and personality. They captured their persona perfectly, grasped their emotions as well as their passion which can be heard in their performance. They are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen
I liked Eve and Ian’s story and that they meet when Eve is thinking of selling her virginity. I liked how strong and different Eve was and enjoyed that this was an older man younger woman story. I liked Ian and how he finds Eve in the first place. These two were great together and I enjoyed their story.

Spy – Stalker – Seducer
—>>> Ian Hunt has been raving to his brother about this blogger he had come across named Eve Miller, who is not shy about debating great works of art and sharing her personal life on the net. However, his interest and protective instincts are triggered when he hears her deliberating about selling her virginity for funds she is desperate to procure. His skilled stalking leads her directly to the bar where she works, and upon finally meeting her in person, Ian realizes he wants to be the man who can help her as much as he can. Having had an experience which caused him to write short-term contracts to keep his heart safe, will taking care of Eve on his terms and sharing more than he had envisioned mean he will be able to remain aloof and in control of his emotions by the time the contract rolls to an end? Eve is a strong and independent character, seemingly much more mature than her years and very bright to boot. She speaks her mind, which is the appeal for Ian, who resents secrets, betrayal, and subterfuge. Eve is also insightful but an honest soul. These two characters together were an undeniably, well-made match! Also enjoyed the secondary sibling characters, which rounded out their personalities and brought out more interesting aspects of their backgrounds.
A beautiful excellent well written romance. This engaging complex and intriguing storyline has witty banter, some steamy sex, as they strike a deal and a journey as his repairs his trust and fixes his broken issues. The characters are complex, intriguing with amazing chemistry. I voluntarily read and reviewed this ARC.
Crystal writes a steamy book about obsession and desire
OMG, I loved this steamy read about Eve who is struggling to get by with her twin sister when she receives an outlandish offer from a customer. Eve writes about the offer that she is seriously considering accepting on her public journal, “Original Sin” which Ian has been following. Ian already is attracted to the journal writer, but seeing the offer and he knows what he has to do. I love the attraction between them as feels so real and the back and forth between the two characters is steamy with an edge. Will Ian’s secret destroy their building relationship? You have to read to find out and won’t want to put the book down.
