Val thinks her brother, Nathan, may be the right man for the job.

I really liked Nathan and Tate together. They fit. Dirty Deeds is emotional and passionate, and it has a heart warming ending as well. Nannette reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

This book has everything. A well laid out storyline, sweet emotional connections between the characters, a great sexual tension and intimacy between the characters and a fantastic sense of humor. I loved the premise. She was recently hurt and so just wanted a fulfilling no-strings attached sexual relationship. Easy right? However Nathan has only had sexual relationships and wants to prove to himself that he can be the romantic relationship type guy all of the woman say they want. The cross-purposes of these two and their relationship keeps the story line fast paced and very engaging. The author really did a good job of showing you how both characters felt and the characters really felt very multi-dimensional and likeable.

Goodness gracious, as my Grandma would say, I'm still trying to calm my heart. Dirty Deeds isn't your grandma's kind of romance. It absolutely sent me over the edge with the hottest, sexiest story I've ever read. Lorelei James created Nathan LeBeau, landscape designer and devilishly delicious Native American man, to make us all long for a teacher with his skills and "sexpertise." The tension between Nathan and the sweet, wannabe bad girl, Tate Cross, had me reading quicker so I could get to the part that would give them the relief they so obviously needed! Lorelei James is a writer I'll be following - wherever she goes!
