Reid. Is. Amazing. The man has a conscience AND a heart. He’s so much more than I expected. He’s not just the money hungry corporate raider, insensitive to others feelings and without feelings of his own.
And Carrie? She can stand all on her own. She’s a great heroine. The first chapters were all I needed to decide that Carrie may well be my favorite female character in this series. She got Reid, and she got him good.
That first encounter was fiery and funny as hell! And from that moment on, they simmered, always shy of the boiling point. When they hit the mark it was hot!! Reid in predator mode, against the door. The first of many. Hate-7ucks they called it. Hah!
He needs her. He’s obsessed. He wants more. He wants everything with her. Denial is their friend while the other is their sworn enemy.
The history between the Maxwell and the West families is like quicksand. Dangerous and it will suck you in, drown you. Instead they’re drowning in each other.
She knows he’s got secrets. He’s been telling her she’ll hate him. Their father’s hatred throws them into a tailspin but the secrets will destroy them.
I loved Royce, Cat and Reece, Cole and Lori and the parts the play. Gabe was dangled like a carrot and I know his story will be enticing. Greyson and Eric? I’m hoping they get a story because I loved their characters.
The last few chapters were fraught with tension. The Secret has become this albatross around his neck. He needs her to trust him. And the stage has been set. Her brother. His father. Hers. Alone, heart aching, and the future seems lost. It all comes down to trust; to love.
I absolutely loved Reid and Carrie’s story!! Dirty, Rich Obsession is a five star read for me.
4.25 Stars
Reid is a lawyer.
Carrie is the daughter of a man whose company Reid bought.
Carrie hates Reid. So much.
Reid is intrigued. But he doesn’t do romance and he also can never tell her the truth about what happened with her father and his father and the business.
But he can’t also not just leave her running the broken company or just fire her.
He’ll help her run the company until she’s back on her feet again …
She hates him. He wants her. She wants him too but can’t admit it.
LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN!!!

Well, that was adorable!
A fun & exciting & really sexy lawyer/business romance!
There’s this huge insta attraction between them, but also all that hate and the past and business and fathers and … so much to overcome. But we love watching them fight and fight some more. With or without clothes! So much fun for the reader.
But just like the first books in this series, this one was way too long for me. There’s too much back and forth between Reid and Carrie. She hates him, he only wants to ‘intimate relationship’ her out of his system. Multiple times. She does too. Then not. Then yes. No. Yes. Let’s do it. Again. No. Arguing. Fighting. Yelling. IntimAte Relations. Again. No. Yes. Yesss! No. Never again. Hate you. Hate you too. Secrets. No. Yes. Mystery. Yesss! More. No. No, I don’t. Yessss! No. UGH!!!!! A few hundred pages less would’ve been better. It was just too long – and that made me hate everything about the book along the way ….
BUT … I also really liked reading it – I liked all the characters and the story. It was definitely not bad. It’s a LRJ book, so you know it’s great, but it was just too long!
But I also can’t wait to get my hands on the next book!!!!
DIRTY RICH OBSESSION was a very adorable & exciting & erotic lawyer/business/office/enemies-to-lovers romance!
Run to your nearest amazon for your own Reid – this one is MINE!!!
Dirty Rich Obsession by Lisa Renee Jones is book Three in the Dirty Rich series. This is the story of Reid Maxwell and Carrie West. I have read the other books (and Loved them!) in this series but feel this can be a standalone book if you choose to do so.
This book draws you in very quickly and you won’t be able to put it down. Reid and Carrie’s fathers are business enemies but there is also a secret that Reid can’t reveal.
Reid is the ultimate hard, sexy business man who doesn’t let much come between him and his goals…but there is something about Carrie. Carrie is a strong women who usually stands very strong but there is something about Reid that has her in knots.
This has been a wonderful series… I love Ms. Jones’s writing and cannot wait for the next book to come out. Loved this one for sure!
Talk about a battle of wills! Enemies to lovers has never been so apt.
Carrie West is willing to do anything to get Reid Maxwell’s attention after finding out his family firm has done a hostile takeover of her fathers company. Boy did she get his attention.
Reid is in new territory where Carrie is concerned. He’s used to satisfying his attractions and moving on, but Carrie just won’t let that happen. The problem is there is a debt between both families that she doesn’t know about. If she learns it, Reid will have no choice but to let her go.
The chemistry between these two was crazy addictive. I almost didn’t want them to get past the anger, it was so hot. Once Reese finally convinces Carrie he’s not her enemy, I liked them together just as much as their fighting.
You don’t know the details of the debt for most of the book. Reid truly believes Carrie won’t want him after she finds out. I was curious how he was going to overcome it even when I didn’t know what it was. The hatred between both their fathers and how much they were against Reid and Carrie being together had me just as curious.
I like that the author kept me guessing despite being worried about not liking the revelation. This ends on a happily for now, but there is more to tell. The second half of their story will be out January 2nd.
Obsessed with this book!
I became obsessed with this book from Reid and Carrie’s first encounter! This book was a roller-coaster ride of events & emotions of Reid & Carrie’s relationship that turns from enemies to lovers to forevers! Sometimes I can get annoyed with the push/pull of a couple, but this author knows how to keep me engaged (read: not annoyed!) & root for this couple through the concealed truths that were coming. We also got glimpses of the other couples from the earlier Dirty Rich books, & it was so great to have an update on them even though you do not need to read them to understand this book. You will become obsessed with this book once you start it, & you will not regret starting it!
Yes please to Reid and his bad boy ways! He is ruthless and no one dares to stand up to him. Until Carrie comes into the picture. This forbidden romance is just what you need over a weekend. I definitely recommend this book as I had stayed up late reading until the end.
Carrie is a great heroine in Dirty Rich Obsession. That woman has a strong backbone that takes on Reid. This is what you call “A thin line between love and hate.” Lisa brings that to you with her words and of course her characters. I love this series and it just makes the fairy tale part of it a bit naughty!
Cover 4.5/5 stars
Story line 5/5 stars
Characters 5/5 stars
HEA – Well you need to read the book to find out 😉
Carrie West puts it all on the line, of course what she did will probably get her escorted out of the family business on Monday but showing Reid Maxwell he is human will be worth it. So what if she got a little pleasure before hand, he owed her that at least, after over throwing her father in the hostile takeover.
Carrier West doesn’t know it yet but I will own her. No one ever beats me but she did and that fascinates me. Little does she know I am now her boss but I have to convince her it is to help her.
Carrie and Reid’s dads are at war, one that has produced a secret that can tear Carrie and Reid apart before they can even get started. Bigger than the secret is that Reid is legally bound not to tell her or it will destroy both of their families.
5 star review of Dirty Rich Obsession (Dirty Rich #3) by Lisa Renee Jones
This is the first book I have read in this series and I enjoyed it immensely.
There is so much going on in this story that I found myself riveted to it. Reid Maxwell, where do I start? He is arrogant, a shark in and out of the boardroom and an alpha through and through. There was something that really drew me to him.
Reid works hard and plays even harder and when he is challenged by Carrie West it looks as though the sparks are sure to fly.
Dirty Rich Obsession was a passionate and intense book, full of drama and angst, It was one of those books I didn’t want to put down
The writing was strong and the characters had a great deal of depth to them. I really liked Carrie and how feisty she was.
I will be checking out the other books in this series as soon as I can.
I just loved the tug and pull of this story. Reid is alpha to the max. He’s not known for being a nice guy. Carrie is fiercely independent and has a backbone of steel. Together the two of them are off the charts combustible! I could read this book fast enough. I look forward to the sequel! I received an advance review copy in exchange for an honest review.
Come into my lair …
With these two cutthroat personalities, it’s hard to distinguish which is the spider and the fly. Jones has created a raging inferno of passion, betrayal and heartache. Reid is the quintessential bad ***. In business he takes no prisoners. In life he makes his own rules. Until he locks horns with Carrie West. Carrie will fight tooth and nail to save what’s precious to her. Even if that means risking her heart. When you find yourself pulling an all nighter just to see how it ends, is when you know that you’ve stumbled on something good. Dirty Rich Obsession is addictive reading.
