Dirty Little Secret
Dirty Little Secret Series, Book One
Written by Willow Sanders
Genre(s): Romance
Hillary hadn’t meant to sleep with Bert "DJ XTC" Morder. She blamed the lack of public bathrooms, and one too many Jaeger bombs for her even contacting DJ XTC in the first place. Now, thanks to the Internet, and the unfortunate incident of the studio live stream, all of Chicago was wondering exactly who the girl with the red-soled shoe had been. How long can she keep her identity a secret, and what will happen once her secret is out? Suggested for readers 18+ for mild romantic situations.
RebeccaHillary's Review
Probably better if you understand the references
I wanted to enjoy this book, but it didn't live up to my expectations. For me, there was far too much focus on brands, and places that might mean something if you live in Chicago, which I don't. The plot twists are predictable, and there's not much going on other than far too much drinking and too many cigarette breaks. Why are these characters even still employed if they just go for a cigarette break every time they're stressed by work (i.e. all the time)? I couldn't connect with any of the characters, which meant that I got about halfway through the book and then felt I was just reading it for the sake of getting to the end.
That said, if you understand the references, it's probably a very enjoyable read. Perhaps it's the fact that I'm a non-smoking, non-drinking Brit that left me a little out of the loop.
