Each story in Down and Dirty is steamy and hot to trot. The book is a great read, although the stories are erotic the language isn't too graphic, it's just right. All stories have a theme where the hero will do anything to save his lady love. And the women would do the same. Each story within Down and Dirty will fill your literature needs while being erotic. Second to None supplies loads of laughs, Love for Hire offers us drama, and Tracked Down serves us with action. The book doesn’t disappoint! I recommend that readers pick it up today!
