Dirty Deeds

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan

Romance Contemporary

Tate Cross is so damn tired of being the good girl. She wants a little adventure in her life and the way she hopes to achieve that is by having some no-holds-barred sex with a man of her dreams. Unfortunately, she doesn't have a man in mind so when a situation occurs involving her aunt's estate and some must-have renovations; Tate comes across Native American hottie Nathan LeBeau. He happens to be the brother of one of her friends and while skeptical at first, realizes that Tate's proposition is too good to pass up! Work AND no-strings-attached sex? Nathan would be a fool to refuse her. But what starts out as simple fun and games so turns into a lust-driven relationship that blooms beautifully under James' care. Since this story is an older one, it doesn't have the usual hit that James' more recent work has. However, the talent is still unmistakable. Only Lorelei James can write erotically charged sex scenes with an underlying shard of hope and passion for the couple. For me, the hero, Nathan LeBeau was what really made this book fun! Sexy but sweet at the same time, Nathan handled Tate well enough that despite his initial hesistancy, it never once felt forced on contrived. While lust may have been what started their relationship, James spends plenty of time building a romance and creating a bond that will last the distance. DIRTY DEEDS captures heat and heart in equal measures.

SUMMARY

When good, clean fun just isn’t an option. Just once, good girl Tate Cross wants to experience a red-hot, no-strings-attached affair. She’s temporarily left her graphic artist position in Denver to settle her aunt’s estate in Spearfish, South Dakota, but the city won’t let her sell the property until the landscaping is up to snuff. The Native American landscape contractor her friend highly recommends looks like he can meet all her needs, in the flowerbed and out. Nathan LeBeau believes few women look at the Native American man beneath the filthy work clothes and hard hat. When Tate offers to trade art lessons for dirt work, the tempting subtext is as plain as the lettering on the side of Nathan’s truck. But in truth, he’s tired of relationships based solely on sex. His goal of proving he’s not completely hopeless in matters of the heart is second only to his dream of expanding his business. It figures. Tate wants no-holds-barred sex right about the time the one-time Casanova wants a good old-fashioned romance. Bring on the battle of wills! This book has been previously published. Warning: A reformed bad boy who wants a taste of real love, and a good girl who wants just one taste of the wild side—and she’s willing to drive a hard bargain to get what she wants.
