Dirty Sexy Saint!!!! So, the title alone, aptly titled Dirty Sexy Saint by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde brilliantly and perfectly suits this book. I would have never imagine that those three words could basically describe this book but it does. Well, we aren't talking about a Holy Man of the Cloth kind of Saint but a man who has the heart of a Saint but who can easily have you begging to be a sinner. And ladies, let's just say this man will have you confessing your dirty thoughts in no time.

Dirty Sexy Saint is the very first book that I have read from both authors but after reading this book, I am definitely going to check out more of their works. So what is Dirty Sexy Saint about? Well, the title alone is given but this book was so much more. It is a story layered with passion, humor, sexiness, heart, hope, second chances, and lots of dirty steamy moments!!!!!

Samantha Jamieson is the quintessential rich girl. She has lived a very sheltered life following the expectations of what her parent's groomed her to become. They had expected to her marry someone that would be very beneficial to her father's investment firm. Everything about her life has always been handed out to her. So when Samantha finally had enough of her parents trying to control her life and force her to marry someone, she decides to do one act of rebellion. Leave the comforts of her parent's money and the lifestyle that she was accustomed to. She knew her father and mother would expect her to come crawling back to them once they cut her off financially, but Samantha had to prove to them and to herself that she could do it on her own. So when Samantha finds herself drunk at a local bar in the dangerous parts of Chicago, she decides to let loose and for one night drink her sorrows away. And so when she finds herself ridiculously drunk, she never thought she would meet a man who in all sense could of have taken advantage of her vulnerability but didn't. Instead, Clay Kincaid helped Samantha.
Clay Kincaid or better known as Saint Clay since he is known by his family and friends to help out and give people a second chance at life. Clay knew what it was like to down on your luck and struggling and so when he finds himself returning the favor to help someone in need, he doesn't hesitate to help. He is a man with a heart of gold who sees the potential and good in people. So when this sexy bombshell that screams wealth finds herself drunk in his bar and has no where to go, Clay takes it upon himself to let Samantha stay the night and clean up. In all sense, Clay is fiercely attracted to this woman but he knows that he must resist temptation because he doesn't want to taint her goodness.

When Samantha awakes from her hangover, all the memories of Clay cleaning up her vomit and helping her get to bed comes flooding back. Samantha then realizes that Clay is one of the good guys. She asked Clay if she could stay at his place and work at his bar until she can get back on her feet. Being Saint Clay of course, he lets her stay and work for him. Clay also takes it upon himself to help Samantha out by doing little things that means a great deal from helping her get clothes and toiletries with the help of his friend, Katrina. As much as Clay tries to stay away from Samantha, he is wildly attracted to her and so is she. Samantha makes it known to Clay that she wants him badly. If he wants her to be dirty, Samantha is all gung-ho on getting dirtier as long it's with Clay. She wants the man to make her sin in the most dirty, sexy way possible.

When it was no longer possible for them to deny their strong sexual attraction, Samantha and Clay begins on a whirlwind of hot dirty sex and along the way, strong emotions begins to linger between them. Samantha realizes that Clay is the man that she is searching for. The love that she aches for. The love that can destroy and uplift her. So what happens when Clay's past comes barreling back? Will Clay push Samantha away because he doesn't want to taint her with his sins? And what happens when Samantha finds herself at a crossroad...to go back to her rich sheltered life or stay with the man who brings sweetness in her life?

Dirty Sexy Saint was a fun, sexy read that kept me entertained. I enjoyed this book so much as both authors were able to incorporate a sexy romance with heart. I loved that we got to see two strangers from two different worlds finding a common ground. LOVE. So if you are looking for a story that was fast paced and incorporated themes of hope, love, family and second chances, then I highly recommend you to read Dirty Sexy Saint. I seriously can't wait for Mason Kincaid's story and what the authors have in store for this bad boy.
