Loved this book! Two couples, 4 POV. The book is packed with intrigue, secrets, chemistry, lust, danger, history and more. A page Turner! Definite must have! Could not get enough of these characters! I am voluntarily leaving my review after reading an advance reader copy of the book!
Five stars doesn’t even begin to show how great this book really is. From the very beginning it pulls you in to the story and takes you on a journey with two couples that are struggling to find peace and truth in a corrupt and dirty world.
Nathan Stone and his brother Caleb are hiding something. The FBI has reason to believe they are dirty with a capital D so Claire, FBI agent gets her sister Emma to go undercover and find out what she can.
Kyle is struggling to breathe. His world has crumbled around him. He doesn’t know how to deal with the small whirlwind that is Carly who has blown into his life but he can’t seem to get rid of her.
This book takes us on a long and winding journey between two couples and other great characters that take us to the edge of danger and pull us back with love and lust. There is Russian mafia and mercs and theater and money and adventure and danger. Lots of mysteries to try and solve and pain to heal. I read every book this author writes and in my opinion this is her best yet and that’s saying a lot. All of her books are great but this one could be a movie. It’s so good.
I received an early copy to read and review and give my honest opinion. I highly recommend this book. My favorite this year.
This is one crazy journey that intertwines between 4 main characters. So, don’t be surprised when you see 4 PoV’s and 2 couples
Along the way these four people cross paths with Nikolai Romanov who is a Russian gangster & a monster in the underworld business. This so-called love story turns in to so much more…there are secrets, lies, danger steamy moments, hidden treasure, some could say at times this book is a cross between Indiana Jones meets Laura Croft, but for me it was just amazing read & I love watching each character overcoming their own triumphs
————————– Happy Reading —————————-
Nathan Stone.is now in charge of a billion-dollar jewelry company with the world at his fingertips at barely thirty, with the help of his younger brother Caleb
He once was a soldier, a man of action, not a desk percher whose big moves of the day are with a pen.

Paulette Review
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. This a story of the two stone brothers Nathan and Caleb running stone corporation both ex mercenaries . Trying to find out who murdered there father and the lost diamond. While Claire a FBI agent, emma her sister ,best friend Carly , and Kyle, Anna who was murdered too all get caught in this story to find out the truth each in there own way. Awesome story this will have to turning pages to find out the truth for yourself.
This isn’t your average HEA! 4 lives that are intertwined and will thrill and amazed you. Normally multi view stories can be convoluted but it that wasn’t the case with this one. I found myself inevitably drawn to these two tales that do heavily relied on one another. This book was a rollercoster of adventure and it keeps you guessing.

INDIANA JONES MEETS LAURA CROFT & LAUREN’S BEST BOOK TO DATE!!!
FILTHY RICHES is written by Lauren Landish….like you’ve never read from her before….It has an Indiana Jones/Lara Croft Tomb Raider thing going for it, and there is NOT. ONE. BORING. PAGE!!!……It has everything you want in a book from this genre…There is friendship, love (so much love), hatred, heartache, life and death danger, attempted murder, Russian mob characters, and some beautiful and/or hot love scenes…..
Four strangers…..Two separate couples, actually, two separate stories, with something in common, whose lives and stories converge into one sexy action packed adventure, making FILTHY RICHES one excellent book…
I have read many books by Lauren Landish, and I can honestly say, I’ve liked them all….but FILTHY RICHES is a “whole different animal.”….It may possibly be the best book she’s written to date…And, BTW, you can NEVER go wrong with Stuart Reardon on the cover….He’s the sexiest thing in glasses since Clark Kent…..But, he’s just one of many reasons FILTHY RICHES is fantastic….
First of all, this book is 130,000 of amazing words. It’s an amazing read told in four different point of views. All the twist and turns keeps you flipping the pages and wanting more. Love all the characters and how their lives intertwine with each other’s.
ONE THRILLING ADVENTURE!!!
Man, talk about jumping in head first. This little gem is as captivating as it is riveting. This is one emotional rollercoaster with so much heartache and hope it really pulls those heartstrings and bring all of your emotions into play. Action packed, fast paced, hard hitting, nailbitng, nerve racking, heart pounding, pulse racing, smooth flowing, page turning thrill ride that brings this bad boy roaring to life beautifully. This little jewel has all the drama, fear, lies and uncertainty, along with danger and suspense. The storyline is so enthralling it holds your attention from start to finish while keeping you on a razors edge. Lauren is an incredibly gifted author as she shows us just how skilled, pulling out all the stops for this bad boy. The characters are lively, intelligent, complex and so realistic I felt I could just reach out and touch them. Their personalities are different and relatable with qualities that bring out such an amazing balance that play off one another perfectly. The scenes are so vivid and detailed it really draws you in with a realism that has such depth you can almost taste it. All the trials and tribulations they encounter along with plenty of unexpected events that really pulls this bad boy together. Lauren totally nailed this little jewel. Excellent job Lauren, thanks for sharing this little gem with us.
Filthy Riches by Lauren Landish is another great read from this author. This book takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotion. It is full of twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I love this author and I think this is my favorite book of hers so far. I highly recommend it, I promise you won’t regret it!!!
Nathan Stone was a man of action always living life on the edge. When tragedy strikes, he is thrust into a business worth billions. Nathan runs The Stone Corporation, a global jewelry company.
Nathan is throwing a party and A-listers in the gem industry will be in attendance, including Nikolai Romanov.
Emma is a wanna-be actress on the verge of success, but for now, she works in data entry. Emma finds herself at Nathan’s party, but for a much different reason. Emma’s skill at acting will be put to the test tonight and if she wants to leave the party alive, her performance needs to be Oscar worthy.
Nathan is far too dangerous for Emma, in so many ways, but Emma is more dangerous to Nathan when he realizes that he has a soft spot for her.
Nathan is looking for answers to questions regarding his father and Nikolai Romanov is the key. Nathan has other motives for dealing with Nikolai, motives that just might get him killed.
Carly and Kyle met, sort of, in Italy.
Carly, Emma’s best friend, ventured out into the world and landed far away in Europe. She needed to get away from the prying, judging eyes of her family.
Kyle is looking for revenge for a love lost too soon. After that initial meeting quickly goes awry, they never expected to see each other again…maybe hoped is a better word.
Carly is a bubbly, cute pixie who loves life and lives it to the fullest. Kyle is the exact opposite. He’s broody, grumpy and vengeful. And he hates the way Carly makes him feel. When Carly and Emma’s world’s collide, this story takes a dangerous turn with no guarantees on the outcome.
WHAT A TANGLED, GLORIOUS WEB LAUREN HAS EXPERTLY WEAVED ! ALL HER CHARACTERS HAVE AN ULTERIOR MOTIVE AND A PAST FULL OF HURT AND PAIN !
NATHAN AND EMMA’S INSTANT AND INTENSE ATTRACTION DRAWS THEM TOGETHER IN A WAY THAT NEITHER CAN LET GO !
FOR KYLE AND CARLY, THE ATTRACTION IS THERE, BUT WHILE CARLY IS WILLING TO EXPLORE THEIR CONNECTION, KYLE IS NOT. WITH DANGER AND ADVENTURE, IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE, SIMPLY PUT, THIS BOOK IS PHENOMENAL AND YOU NEED TO READ IT ASAP ! ! !
This is one of those books that just leave you saying WOW! This romance is a exciting, action packed, thrill ride. I mean there is so much going on here. You get two couples (Emma & Nathan and Carly & Kyle), steamy passion, powerful emotions, drama, adventure, danger, suspense and intrigue, all so very brilliantly woven together into one unforgettable book. In other words you are never given even a single opportunity to grow bored. In fact, I found myself getting so annoyed when real life wanted to be rude enough to interrupt my reading, that I was quite cranky about it. Refreshing, unique and absolutely delightful!!
Filthy Riches by Lauren Landish a five-star read you would become dirty for. I am a huge fan of this author and have read and loved many of her stories but this one, oohhh this one weaves a tangled web and will suck you into the compelling and twisted stories of all of the four main characters, they will each tell you a story and Nathan, Emma, Carly and Kyle will all tell you theirs. Each one is looking for something different but each of their stories interact with the others in ways that you will see and some that are so far under the surface they will leave you with your mouth hanging when you see the story unravel. I don’t want to say too much as agghhh the twists!!! You will love this story and it will compel you to read the next page quicker than the last.
Filthy Riches By Lauren Landish

Lauren Landish did, indeed, weave a tangled web with four lives and experiences. It’s thrilling how expertly she wove two fascinating stories together and meshed them so well. Nathan Stone has never wanted to work in the family jewelry business but tragedy struck the family and he inherited The Stone Corporation, a billion dollar empire. Emma Daniels comes from a wealthy family who wanted her to follow in their footsteps. When she decides she’d rather be an archaeologist, she is completely cut off. She is also an aspiring actress who has just been given her first role in an Off-Broadway show of Cleopatra. It never gets going, however, because her sister Claire shows up and needs her to do something for her. Claire is an FBI agent and trying to track down a global illegal jewel operation and she gives Emma one name…Nikolai. She is instructed to go to a party given by Nathan Stone to see what she can learn. Carly Edwards is Emma’s best friend from school. She also grew up in a wealthy family and has decided to get away from their stifling expectations. While backpacking across Europe, she sees a fight involving Kyle. He is trying to escape his personal tragedy by finding the people responsible. She notices a look in his eyes that tells her not to be afraid of him. The beauty of this book is that it is written with so many layers of action, treachery, murder, trust and love that it grabs your attention and won’t let go. It really has something of everything!
I thoroughly enjoyed this great story
The characters were so great and the chemistry between the two main characters was scorching hot.
There are many twists and turns and lots of danger and intrigue.
The story is well written and very enjoyable.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
Awesome Twofer
I was really interested to read a book that was written about two couples intertwined in the story so completely that they each had a main role. I truly enjoyed it. I thought it was well balanced between each character and couple. I also thought the story was interesting and fun to follow. It’s a bit longer but totally worth it and perhaps the most important thing for me was that the story moves.
Listening to the audio was fantastic. The difference between the female narrators was noticeable from the start. I would have known which POV was being read simply by their portrayal. The male narrators took me a few chapters to learn the difference. However, once I did, I could tell the difference not just because of their voice but because I was able to see the characters personalities. 5 stars
