Vessa Ratham has moved back to Vermont to be near her paternal grandparents. Just having received a degree in art and needing work she goes to a lady whose job it is to pair people up who will be good working together. Donna Edith sees much promise in Vessa and knows just who to pair her up with, a driven and talented architect who need a decorator, Killian Fitzroy.

As Vessa and Killian work on decorating the house he is stunned and fascinated by her talents and her. Vessa is very private though and refuses to talk about herself fearing her secret will get out. The closer she and Killian grow the more she fears what she is feeling, not to mention, the sex is so great she can't get enough, and neither can he.

THE DIRTY SECRET is a steamy, sexy book with a real plot and story line. The characters are likeable, except the wicked stepmother. The descriptions of the home so wonderful you can see them in your mind's eye. You can't help but want everything to work out for these young lovers and the way they are together is what we all want to have and have last forever.

Kira A. Gold has written a very steamy book that has a good story line in between the very descriptive and sexy scenes. I can't wait to see if Donna Edith finds more people who work that well together both naked and dressed.
