When I met Donovan Kincaid, I knew he was rich. I didn’t know he was filthy. Truth be told, I was only trying to get his best friend to notice me.I knew poor scholarship girls like me didn’t stand a chance against guys like Weston King and Donovan Kincaid, but I was in love with his world, their world, of parties and sex and power. I knew what I wanted—I knew who I wanted—until one night, their … night, their world tried to bite me back and Donovan saved me. He saved me, and then Weston finally noticed me, and I finally learned what it was to be in their world.
And then what it was like to lose it.
Ten years later, I’ve found my way back. Back to their world. Back to him.
This time, I’m ready. I’ve been down this road before, and I know all the dirty, filthy ways Donovan will try and wreck me.
But it’s hard to resist. Especially when I know how much I’ll like it.
From NYT Bestselling author Laurelin Paige, discover a whole new world filled with sex, love, power, romance and dirty, filthy rich men.

Good for what it is.
I kept waiting for the book to come to a HEA. But alas, it goes into a sequel. I thought this book dragged and dragged and I just finally got tired of the whole Donovan/Sabrina angst. I really liked both characters initially and then by the end of the first book, I was glad it was over and not interested in the next book.
Be Forewarned, friends. Cliffhanger!
POSSIBLE SPOILERS
OK, This is an interesting premise… both hero(?) and heroine have a past, and some major issues. Both could do with some therapy. That said, it makes for a steamy story, even if it’s a bit repetitious. Sabrina is drawn to Donovan after he he got her out of a tight spot in college, but even though we figure out he is attracted to her, he keeps pushing her away, and rather cruelly at that. This goes on for months, also involving his business partner (no, no menage), and just when there is finally a little insight into Donovan’s issues, the book ends. Yup, ends. No indicator in the description of the book, other than it’s “Book One”. I received my copy free through a link from the author Julia Kent, and I was pleasantly surprised to find
“Dirty Filthy Rich Boys” was included at the beginning of the book. Ms. Paige includes a note to readers that you can skip to Part Two if you have already read this novella. So DFRM is 26 chapters plus an Epilogue. Seemed to point to it being a full book. Thus my “pleasantly surprised” went to “angrily surprised” when I discovered it wasn’t so.
Ms. Kent also does not give any hint that it is first in a two part story in her offering of the link to the book.
I generally avoid cliffhangers on principle, unless it is spelled out well in advance, and I can make my own decision as to whether or not I wish to invest my time and money. If you are like me, I’m offering this review to help. At this point, I’m doubtful I’m going to shell out the $6.99 to end the story.
Panty-melting wasn’t on the list above… but I’d say that about covers things. 😉
Absolutely incredible. Couldn’t wait for this one to come out.
I don’t like when the girl lets the man walk all over and treat her like crap.
Almost too hot to handle
Enjoyed it thoroughly
Great book!
Just waiting to get the last book to see what happens with Donovan.
Great book. This author has become one of my favorites. Fun, sexy stories with some twists but without overly dense females angst’ing over silly stuff.
This is book 1 in a duet. Book 2 to be released in September and cannot wait. Great writing, love this author and waiting for Donovan’s secret.
Ms. Paige is a wonderful writer. I love her books and this is another great one. Wonderful characters, tension, frustration, passion, all amazing. I wish the h would have walked out on him at least once, she was a little too desperate at times for him. But I still loved it and can’t wait to read the second part.
A 56 page novella that was really eh.
Can’t wait to read the next one in the series.
