A New Duet in the Dirty Filthy Universe from NYT Bestselling Author, Laurelin Paige.
It was Donovan’s idea. I don’t even know how he got me on board. Sure, I could use a break from the one-night stands and merry-go-round lovers in my bed, but I hadn’t thought that putting a ring on a woman’s finger was the answer. Especially not that woman. Elizabeth Dyson needs to marry to get access to her …
Especially not that woman.
Elizabeth Dyson needs to marry to get access to her father’s company and take over as president. If I take on the role of groom, she’ll hand over her advertising subsidiary to Reach Inc. the firm I own with Donovan, my supposed best friend.
Problem is that, even though the girl is confident and sexy and brilliant as fuck, she doesn’t know the first thing about running an empire. And she’s awfully particular about the wedding plans, even though it’s a FAKE wedding, for all intents and purposes. And we can’t seem to spend more than five minutes together without wanting to tear each other’s hair out.
Worst of all, I can’t stop imagining what it would be like to kiss her.
And soon I’m unsure how much of this business arrangement is just play and how much of it is real.
Book one of two.

I love that Weston finally realized he was in love with Elizabeth. Read book two to see the ending.
Laurelin Paige is a really great writer. Every time I read one of her books I get so invested that I just can’t put it down. I HAVE to know what happens! It’s not “just one more chapter” it’s I need alllll the books! Weston and Elizabeth’s story is no different. With a fake marriage between them for business purposes turns into something more, a big secret looms over their future together. I’m diving right into the next book!
Really liked this book.
Am yet to be disappointed in her books. She is one of my favorite writers that I recommend to people to go for at all times
Oh my goodness! I own this in kindle edition but didn’t get around to reading it because I knew there was a cliffhanger but then I got the audio edition and WOW having these words out loud…WOW. This was supposed to be a business contract. Elizabeth needs a husband so she can take control of her father’s company and Donovan has volunteered Westin as the groom. All is going as planned until their fighting and banter takes a turn and lips and hands and (other parts) become involved and soon all that chemistry has a way of turning the game into more…
Warning! Cliffhanger!!!!!
I love the book and series. The author is good to
my fault, didn’t realize there is a part 2 coming. Wanted to wrap it up in one book.

I am all these GIFs and more. So much more. I literally have NO FREAKING IDEA how to start this review. I just keep making the one sigh after the other. The next deeper than the last. The one more dead-end than the other. I just don’t know what and how to write. And it’s not from lack of things to say. In the contrary, it’s because I have SO MANY things and feelings inside me that I don’t know where to start.
From the first time Laurelin introduced us to her Dirty universe over a year ago, I haven’t stopped wanting more and more and more from those characters and stories. But, then again, I guess, that’s the status quo with Paige. No matter how many books she writes about a couple, you can’t help yourself from becoming a greedy little monster who simply never stops wanting more from each one of them. First, it was Donovan & Sabrina who kept me on my toes during their crazy ride in the Dirty Duet and their intensity has already made me reread the duet at least 3 other times since its finale. And now, she went and gave us Weston & Elizabeth’s story; probably, one of the most highest anticipated book of 2018. I mean, we’re talking about WESTON KING, here! One of the greatest BBFs player in the contemporary romance world. Laurelin, she simply has no limits when it comes to creating f-awesome characters who simply take over your world with just a snap of their fingers. Seriously, that 1-SECOND snap is all it takes for the addiction to begin.
To say that I’ve been obsessing over this book since it first came out in audio in April, it would be a huge understatement. Since she first introduced him to us, Laurelin kept us in quite the dark when it came to Weston. The bits here and there were just that; bits, whose only purpose was to spike us up for the time of his & Elizabeth’s reveal. Both of them had taken a back seat – rightfully, since Donovan easily ruled the placed in the Dirty Duet – but that didn’t deaminized neither the intensity she hid between them nor my curiosity about THEIR story that reached sky-high levels. So now, their game is on. But, nothing could really prepared me for what I was meant to face with these two. My heart nearly gave up in the end. It was too much. And that cliffhanger – It’s Paige we’re talking about so no big surprise there – had me shattered and scattered. Why November should be so fat away? I need to read their finale like my next breath.
Also, I couldn’t bypass the fact and the existence of the snippets of Donovan’s in this book which made me so damn giddy. Donovan Kincaid is only one on this Earth and once he claims you, you are his forever. Ask Sabrina if you don’t believe me
So many amazing scenes. So many powerful emotions. So. Much. Passion!!! Weston & Elizabeth, there is No Doubt that they have a PhD on how to create explosions. There wasn’t a scene where I wasn’t feeling the effects of their passion. Even when they were apart, you could cut it with a simple knife and you could feel the overcharged wire that was connecting their hearts since their first meeting.
I am honestly out of words here. My mind is a blank full of just Weston, Elizabeth, their story and WHY NOVEMBER SHOULD BE SO FAR AWAY!!!!! I need the second book so. damn. BAAAAAAAAAAD! Hurry up, Nov, Hurry up!!!!!
Laurelin Paige is fast becoming one of my go-to authors for really good contemporary romance ever since reading Porn Star (which she co-wrote with Sierra Simone) last year, and then reading a couple of her solo works. I haven’t delved into her older stuff and I had hoped to read Dirty Filthy Rich Men and Dirty Filthy Rich Love prior to reading Dirty Sexy Player but alas I couldn’t find the time.
Dirty Sexy Player is a spin-off of Dirty Filthy Rich Men and Dirty Filthy Rich Love duo and, from what I could tell, the both books occur in the same timeline. But, Dirty Sexy Player was the story of Weston King, Mr. Dirty Sexy Player himself, and rich girl Elizabeth Dyson, who needed a husband to inherit her late father’s company sooner rather than when she’s 29.
Wes and Elizabeth have to sell their fake engagement like it’s 100% real and that’s easier said than done because the two of them don’t exactly get along. They also decided that sex is off the table so as not to make things complicated, but for a player like Wes, a sex drought goes against his nature. It doesn’t help that his sexy and smart though very frustrating fake fiancee gives him boner every time she’s near.
I knew I was going to enjoy Dirty Sexy Player and I was right. Ms. Paige delivered a brilliant, sexy, and deliciously dirty fake engagement story. Weston was a lot of fun–he’s flirty and charming and even though he’s a total ladies man he’s very likable. Elizabeth was more reserved and was trying to prove, especially to herself, that she’s capable of taking over her father’s company. There was a lot of bickering between Wes and Elizabeth and goading each other. Sometimes it’s fun because it’s laced with sexual attraction, but other times I just wanted to reach in and shake the two of them. Also, constant uncertainty about each other and themselves plague this couple, but I enjoyed the push and pull of Wes and Elizabeth’s relationship for the most part.
The story ended in a bit of a cliff-hanger, but book 2 will be out in November so not too long of a wait. I am every excited to get my hands on it and read Wes and Elizabeth’s HEA. If you’re a fan of Dirty Filthy Rich Men and Dirty Filthy Rich Love you need to read Weston King’s story. But, you don’t need to read those books to enjoy Dirty Sexy Player as it stands very much on its own–if you’re looking for a fun and sexy fake engagement story, pick up Dirty Sexy Player.
I give 5 brilliant stars to Dirty Sexy Player ( Dirty Games Duet Book 1) written by Laurelin Paige.
A New Duet in the Dirty Filthy Universe.
I’ve been very found of this lady and her books for many years, and each and every time each page is filled with suspense, steamy scenes and such raw emotions. You can never predict what will come in the next chapter.
Meet Weston he’s a top player with the lady’s and likes his life the way he has it, that is until a opportunity arises where he won’t be paying the price anymore, he will be debt free. But this is going to be much harder than Donovan made out.
Elizabeth knows what she wants and just how she is going to get it, but she didn’t plan on Weston, with all this attitude and bickering, steamy gorgeous body, things start to develop and feelings run high and with the pressure growing around them.
I love Weston King. He is the ultimate rich playboy but he loves women who are not only great looking but also intelligent. Weston has his own issues with his past and his family but he is determined to be a better person. When his business partner, Donovan Kincaid, proposes something so outrageous that Weston can’t believe what Donovan wants him to do!
Elizabeth Dyson is the heir to Dyson Media but in order to get her inheritance that her absent father left her, she must get married. Elizabeth wants to right the wrongs that her father had done in his life with the employees of his business empire. Elizabeth also must fight her cousin for her inheritance before he dismantle the entire Dyson empire.
Elizabeth agrees with Donovan’s outrageous business proposal in order for them both to get what they want – Elizabeth the Dyson empire and Donovan the media portion of the Dyson empire. The plan will only work if Weston King is in agreement with it – which is to marry Elizabeth!
When Elizabeth and Weston meet, sparks fly since they are both so different. Elizabeth is a smart, rich woman but has never worked a day in her life while Weston has been putting his all into his business to prove to the world that he is his own person! While these 2 pretend to be in love and are getting married, in private they are at each other’s throats with their differences and their sexual attraction to each other. Once they finally give in to their attraction, things get so steamy, hot, and crazy for each other. However, obstacles get in the way of a future together.
I can’t wait for Dirty Sexy Games to find out what happens to Elizabeth and Weston. How will they figure out their lives and can they make the necessary compromises to have a life together or will they play out the charade of a marriage and move on!
Dirty Sexy Player – Laurelin Paige
Weston and Elizabeths story is built on a real-love hate relationship, even though you know it’s an engagement of convenience but what is clear, neither one of them can see what’s coming…….
They are both hell bent on seeing out their arrangement but doubts and complications surface and with a cliffhanger I wasn’t ready for, I now am waiting very impatiently for the conclusion to their story.
Great writing, seriously hot and sexy storyline with ample sexual tension between the characters and some wonderfully arrogant alpha men make this an all round good read.
Laurelin had never let me down.. her ways to charm and taunt reader with her words.. The story had captivated my heart.. Full of flavor for sure!!
Dirty Sexy Player is one steamy hot read.. Weston King and Elizabeth Dyson are the perfect pair for the agreement.. They were the peas and carrot.. the cahoot.. this book brought so much joy.. laughter.. playful.. emotional feeling…
This book revealed a lot of emotions from Weston and Elizabeth.. They grew from it.. feel for it even with denial…ahhh you need to read the book to find out.. sexy and naughty on the same time.. i feel the love.. cant wait for the next chapter
I didn’t think the Dirty Universe could get any better, but Laurelin Paige has proven me wrong. Weston and Elizabeth’s story is everything you want in a romance. This story can be read as a standalone, but I wouldn’t miss any book in this series. Dirty Sexy Player has a good storyline and lots of chemistry between the characters. I can’t wait for book two.
This is a definite one click.
4.9 Stars
I hope you’ve read the first duet about Donovan and Sabrina? Because this book, this duet, takes place around the same time. Donovan just told Wes that he should marry Elizabeth. That way her cousin would lose control of the company because her dad said in his will that she’ll get her inheritance once she’s 29 – or married. She’s only 25 now and cousin Darrell is running the company into the ground. Through that marriage Wes and Donovan’s company would get to partner with the ad-agency side of Elizabeth’s company – making them the biggest ad agency in Europe. Win-win for everyone. BUT – Wes never thought he’d get married – and now he will but he can’t have fun with the whole thing, like with sex and stuff?
But the sparks are mega-flying between the newly engaged couple!
Let the fun times begin!
What will happen with Elizabeth & Wes?
Will there be a Happy End???
Or a huge Cliffy???
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT!
ADORABLE!
Both Wes and Elizabeth are mega attracted to each other. But of course this won’t be a real marriage. But it could be a little bit, right? But what if one night would destroy the next months?
But of course both can’t resist the other for long.
Also, they have to convince everyone and cousin Darrell that this is real – what better way to prove that than to have it be really real?
VERY sexy and adorable and funny romance – can’t wait to get my hands on book #2 – grrrr Cliffhangers!
DIRTY SEXY PLAYER was a very sexy and adorable first book in this duet – hurry november – I NEED TO SEE HOW THIS LOVE STORY WILL END!
“I wanted to please her. I wanted to love her.”
Laurelin Paige, what in god’s name are you trying to do to me! Why you got to play me like that, woman? You know I love you to death, but that was cold! Don’t give me that look. You know what I’m talking about! Grrrrr! Anywho on to the review…
I know you’re gonna want some spoilers after what you just read, but my lips are sealed dammit! You’re not getting a peep out of me other than the fact that NOW you absolutely HAVE to pick up Weston and Elizabeth’s story! You have NO IDEA what you’re in for…NO IDEA! This shouldn’t be a surprise for you, since this is a romance by Ms. Paige. But HOLY HOT DAMN, this book was SMOKIN’ HOT, for real! If you are familiar with this dirty, sexy world, then you are familiar with these two characters and what predicament they got themselves in. I’ve been wanting their story since it all started and oh boy, did I get it!
Antagonistic and flirtatious banter is THROUGH THE DAMN ROOF, up in here! I loved it! I ate it up! I CRAVE so much more! These two characters are scrumptious and I can’t wait to see what comes next! DIRTY SEXY PLAYER is an absolute MUST READ, as is EVERY SINGLE THING that Laurelin Paige has ever written. Can you tell I’m a fan? Well, you need to trust me on this because this woman NEVER disappoints! I love you and I might just hate you a bit, Ms. Paige but you know in the end, I’ll forgive you because I know that you will give these two a happily ever after I will never forget!
Despite the steam coming from this book, I did like the plot enough to buy the second book to complete this story.
I’m not sure why I waited so long to read this. I also bought the audiobook and love the narrators. This is one steamy, sexy ride. I can’t wait to start the next one. Laurelin Paige always delivers exactly what I need.
