Southern Texas heats up when four roughneck billionaires set their sights on love in the new series from New York Times bestselling author Jessica Clare.
Boone Price and his brothers know oil; at least, the dirty, backbreaking side of working an oil rig. But when their scrubby, worthless hunting land turns out to be sitting on top of one of the biggest oil wells in North America, they go from the rig to the boardroom and end up billionaires practically overnight.
Now with enough money to do whatever he wants, Boone is developing a taste for fine things. And the finest thing he's ever seen is Ivy Smithfield, local realtor. Boone's determined to buy her affection and show the world that he's more than just a dirty fool with a bit of money. Ivy's classy and beautiful - she'll make the perfect trophy wife. The fact that she's sexy and funny is just a bonus.
There's one tiny problem - Ivy's as dirt poor as Boone is. Her carefully crafted veneer of luxury? All an act to promote her business. What's Boone going to do when he finds out the woman he's falling for is, well, in his league?

Bring on the Price brothers! The Price brothers have recently discovered they are sitting on an oil well. In Dirty Money by Jessica Clare features Boone Price, who needs to clean up his image so he can get the respect he feels he needs. Perfect for this mission is Ivy Smithfield, the local realtor who he believes would be perfect wife on his arm, as classy as she is beautiful.

This was an interesting book, and a quick read that’s a fun way to spend an afternoon. Boone is an aggressive and alpha male, and makes no apologies for who he is. Ivy is an enigma, and she’s crafted an image around herself that is a complete lie. Boone doesn’t fit into that image, but I enjoyed watching the way he tries to convince her to be in a relationship with him. I loved both of the characters and the banter between them as they try and navigate their own happy ending. Β
