We finally find out what happens after he leaves that wild weekend. It’s been driving me nuts since I read the arc a year and a half ago. Desperation doesn’t look good on me or on of few of these characters either.
The twists and turns definitely keep coming. I reread Trashy Foreplay so it was fresh in my mind. It made me so much more on edge about Trashy Conquest. The chemistry, the intensity, and the list pouring from the pages is hard to ignore. Add in the drama of Mrs. Montgomery ‘s whereabouts and I was read to lose it. I appreciate that the author keeps true to the characters, their goals, and their wants. I was afraid drastic changes were headed out way.
Never fear, Gemma James is here. Though if you’ve read some of her other books, you might understand my hesitation. I enjoyed it. It left me smiling and with a good vibe. Trashy or not, I would read it again.
Reviewed for Sweet Spot Sisterhood
Cash and Jules whirlwind romance keep going to the conquest. Cash’s wife ends up going missing with a murder hanging over her head and Jules past follows her across the country to try to win her back. If only things were that easy! While Cash and Jules grow closer and closer are the things keeping them apart stronger then they are? They continue to fight for each other and won’t stop until they have what they want.
This book picks up from where Trashy Foreplay left us and things between Cash and Jules are getting more complicated and messier by the second. With dead bodies, missing spouses, an ex that doesn’t get the hint, Cash and Jules have a lot to deal with. With twists appearing from nowhere, betrayal and deceit from all sides, it’s hard to see how their relationship can survive it all but Cash is determined he’s going to untangle the mess they’ve found themselves in and make things right for them both.
Like a lot of readers I was left hanging after the ending of Trashy Foreplay. I had a ton of questions I needed answers for and finally, Trashy Conquest has given me those answers. This book is like a soap opera. There’s so much going on it’s enough to make your head spin but it’s so addictive it’s hard to put it down. The super hot chemistry between Cash and Jules helps balance out the tension in the rest of this book and there’s something about both characters that drew me to them.
Another good book from Gemma James.
This second book has so been worth the wait and I am so glad Gemma James took her time to get this book just right! This book it picks right up were Trashy Foreplay left off. Wow the twist and turns in this book will having you reading to the very end. I didn’t want this series to end and feel if the author wanted to she could continue with some of the other characters in the story. Hint hint Gemma 🙂
Hot! Hot! Hot! Trashy Conquest was a book I have been waiting for! I wanted to know what would happen for Cash and Jules. Gemma James touches a lot on sensitive subjects, but that is just her writing style. She keeps it raw, gritty, and steamy! The story line has your heart in your throat while you like everyone else is wondering where is Monica? And why now of all times does her disappearance have to happen when Cash is trying to be set free?
There are a couple of moments that will have you yelling “No Way!”. The drama plot thickens and I was holding on to my emotions the whole time. Gemma James is an author I will always follow. She won’t give you the hearts and flowers, but the lust and heat will always be.
Love at first sight?
Trashy Conquest is the follow-up to the story of Cash and Jules that began in Trashy Foreplay. These characters had an instant attraction, and spending necessary time together proved more difficult than they thought. The level of their chemistry and the circumstances of their lives made their actions and decisions much more understandable.
I really love Gemma James’s books; she’s a good writer who publishes well-crafted stories that grab your attention. I’ll be looking for what’s next.
I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book and am giving my honest and voluntary opinion.
This has a lot of drama, some mystery, and a ton of dysfunction but I really enjoyed the heck out it. The steam factor is off the charts and the chemistry between Cash and Jules is truly believable. I loved how everything unfolded, and the crazy twists and turns that were revealed shocked the heck out of me. Some of them I suspected but there were just as many I never saw coming. Despite the adultery content of this book/duet, at the heart of it is the deep emotional pull of two people who were made for each other. Their individual strength only intensified as their relationship grew. The writing is stellar and although I would’ve loved an epilogue, the story was totally engrossing. If the subject matter doesn’t offend you, I encourage you to check this and the previous book out.

Jules and Cash’s story couldn’t have ended any better. I have been awaiting this story forever. now the lingering story can have resolution. They have so much to endure to get to belong to each other. I’m not going to give anything away on this story cause you HAVE TO read this duet!
Trashy Foreplay is NOT a standalone, because Trashy Conquest picks up right where book one left off.
arc review For honest review When cash montogomer is brought in to the police station for questioning on the dead body in his living room and questions on the were abouts of his wife Monica .He has questions himself .awsome story. Loved this .
Trashy Conquest by Gemma James is book Two in the Trashy Affair Series. This book picks right up where Trashy Foreplay (Trashy Affair #1) left off and yes, continues the steamy and angsty love story of Jules and Cash.
I have been dying for this book!! Literally dying–Like I’ve been on pins and needles while waiting for this book and now that it’s here- OMG let me tell you– its so hot, sexy, angsty, passionate, emotional, unexpected, forbidden, fierce, heartbreaking, gritty, betrayal, gripping, filled with twists and turns, stunning romance and epic love.
If things weren’t complicated enough between Jules and Cash regarding their relationship, things just became even more difficult and complicated when his wife turns up missing , there’s a devastating surprise awaiting him at his apartment and then when it comes for Jules, her ex is in town and he seemingly wants her back. WOW!!! Highs and Lows. Can Jules and Cash ever get their HEA ? This story has everything- secrets, lies, betrayal, guilt, forbidden love, affair, true love, forgiveness and happiness. I loved that Cash and Jules knew they had each other. My only small problem with the story is I would have loved an epilogue to show how the main characters were doing afterwards but that is just my opinion. This is just a beautiful and moving read that will have you glued to the story and will have you rooting for the main characters from start to finish.
My Rating: 4.7 stars *****
Yassss!! Ive waited so long for this book and was not disappointed!! I loved Jules and Cash’s story and all it’s twisty turns and drama!! So much sexual chemistry and holy hell moments!! Love love love this author and her words!!
Trashy Conquest picks up right where Trashy Foreplay so cruelly left off. But don’t think that just because this is the conclusion to Cash and Jules’ story that the author takes it easy on our couple. Oh no, that would be too easy … This time around there’s a whole new set of problems, one aside from the obvious obstacle looming in their way. Cash and Jules will have to fight to stay together. Fight for their relationship and fight all the big obstacles standing in the way of their love.
Normally I probably wouldn’t want to read a duet that centers on the main couple cheating, but honestly, this duet has been so entertaining to read, and Cash and Jules are pretty amazing characters, that I couldn’t even get too upset with the cheating. Yes, there is definitely cheating in this duet, but I’d go as far as saying it’s deserved, and it’s not trashy as the title suggests. What these two have is special – emotionally substantial, heartfelt, and of course, very sexy. If you haven’t read Trashy Foreplay you must read it first before diving into Trashy Conquest, as it’s most definitely not a standalone novel. I think if you can get past the cheating, you will find yourself falling for this couple just like I did!
This is a great follow-up to Trashy Foreplay. It continues Cash and Jules’s story and picks up right where the first book left off. This book has so many twists and turns that my head was spinning. Lots of drama, angst, sexy times, and love. Both Cash and Jules didn’t do too well in the sibling department and their exes are horrible. I’m glad Cash and Jules found each other. I received an ARC for an honest review.
The book is one of my favorite authors.It’s so sensual , addictive and sexy.Cash’s twin was intimate with his wife before he married her. Jules finally left her ex-boyfriend for good.When I started reading I couldn’t put it down.Gemma James is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can’t wait for the next book.
This was so worth the wait Cash and Jules have to struggle the whole way but the pull is so strong nothing will keep them apart. This was very intense and dramatic with betrayal up you’ll never see coming. Jules was such a strong woman and Cash brings out his caveman side and I really love how they didn’t give up when their was no light in sight, these two truly were mae for each other in every single way.
Pins and needles!! I’ve been on pins and needles waiting for this book. Finally!!!! I loved it. Devoured it from start to finish and was left kinda speechless. All the ups and downs were insane. Emotional Rollercoaster for sure. Sweet Jesus! This book was hot. Something forbidden shouldn’t be so good but OMGEEEE it was amazing. Gemma is a fave of mine for a reason and this book just proved it. Can’t wait to see what else she has in store for us!
Holy Cow was this book HOT HOT HOT!
We pick up right where the first one ended.
With Cash’s wife missing and someone dead things dont look so good for Cash and Jules. But they will find a way to be together one way or another. Secrets are learned and things are forgotten but remembered. All this leads to a good ol juicy story full of hot steamy sex and new beginnings!
I loved this book I have been dying for it to come out to know what happens! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
Trashy Conquest by Gemma James is book Two in the Trashy Affair Series. This book picks up where we were left in the first book ‘Trashy Foreplay’, so you really should read the previous book to fully enjoy this one. This continues the story of Jules and Cash which is turning into a hot soap opera. Jules and Cash past comes back to haunt them since it hasn’t been put to rest. An Ex love wants another chance and another is possibly dead. Attractions are running high but can anything be worked out between this hot couple? Really enjoying this hot soap opera story!
Holy hot cakes this book is explosive!!! Lana- White Hot Reads
I’ve been waiting for this book since I finished Trashy Foreplay last year and let me tell you it was worth the wait to see how Jules and Cash’s story panned out. Their love and attraction to each other is smoking hot with sexually chemistry like no other. You can’t help but root for them to make it even with the obstacles in there way.
