Title: Dirty Sexy Sinner
Author: Carly Phillips & Erika Wilde
What a thrill Dirty Sexy Sinner was. The book was so incredibly aptly named that my only regret was not getting on the Dirty Sexy series train so much sooner than now.
To say that Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde know how to wield a good story would be an understatement as they throw the curveball of all curve balls by writing the story of the long lost Kincaid brother whose early life almost rips your heart out. Worst yet was finding out that this ma, Jackson, who had such high hopes when he'd get to meet them that it was angering, if not downright disappointing when it was anything but. Even with that, Jackson had the opportunity to meet Tara, a woman who least expected to feel any reaction towards the male gender.
Just when I thought this story couldn't get any more poignant, Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde hits their readers with the dirty talking alpha who knows exactly what to say to make your knees weak and your breath catch in your throat. It's too bad that the series was about the Kincaid brothers since I would have loved to keep reading about them, but considering I hadn't had the chance to read the previous novels, I'll take the time to read them and relive their relationships until their next release.

Jackson Stone finally understands why his father always treated him like an outsider. After thirty-two years, he learned that his mother bought him in the black market. Finding out he was illegally adopted and had three brothers, started Jackson on a journey to find the place where he belonged. But even the undisputable evidence that his twin brother Clay Kinkaid was his sibling and therefore, so were Mason and Levi, warmed the Kinkaids to him. It was Kara, the gorgeous bartender at Clay's bar that made him feel welcomed. She was beautiful, sexy and clearly as attracted to him as he was to her. Their interaction was flirty and light, which was exactly what he needed. She was also protective of him, standing up to the brothers when he needed a chance to introduce himself. Tara couldn't believe that Clay had a twin. Once upon a time, Tara had a thing for Clay. It lasted a minute, but it was nothing compared to how this beautiful stranger made her feel. Talking to him was easy. Learning they had more in common than their physical attraction to each other, only intensified her feelings. But falling for him would be a mistake. Clay hadn't cared for anyone since his ex-wife betrayed him. He was a firm believer in one night stands and short term connections. Until her. Now, as their pasts unfolded and the brothers reconnected, it was up to Jackson and Tara to figure out if they were a short term sin or would become sinfully HEA. With lots of sass, humor and brotherly jousting, the fourth installment of the Dirty Sexy series brings back a lot of alphas, laughs and even some kink. A fun read for sure.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is about Jackson and Tara. We know Tara from the other 3 Dirty Sexy books as Kincade's trusty and sassy bartender. Jackson is Clay's (the brother from book one, Dirty Sexy Saint) secret twin brother. Turns out, their mother sold Jackson for drug money. Jackson just found out and is trying to make contact with all 3 of his brothers. He winds up at Kincade's and meets Tara. It's an instant attraction for them both, but they both have heartbreaking pasts that keep them from opening up to anyone.
I don't give spoilers, so that's as much of the story as I'll give. I have loved all 4 of these brothers' stories and it would be hard to pick a favorite, but I'm leaning towards Jackson at the moment. His feelings for Tara are just...OMG. I couldn't get enough! This story brings all the couples from the other 3 books in as well, so we get a little more of each of their stories, too.
This book had it all: romance, super hot sex scenes, heartbreak, strong family dynamics...just everything. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of the books in this series and am sad to see it end. I do look forward to Carly & Erika's next series, The Book Boyfriend Series!

Carly and Erika have another hit on their hands! You do not have to read the other books in the series to read this. We knew from the prior books in the series that Tara was a great person, but I loved seeing this side of her. She's so strong and so much more than meets the eye. Love how Tara doesn't deal with the men trying to be well, men. When she puts Hank in his place, I LOLd. I really connected with her character. She seemed like a friend, someone I would like to get to know, very realistic qualities without the air of pretension. Loved the honest talk with Katrina near the end. Really made the characters realistic. So many times with novels the love seems one sided and you aren't sure how both characters fell in love. Not with this story; you felt love from both sides and understood how they got there. Jackson was great, a strong man with a sensitive side, and they sure were steamy! Not much drama, but the realism of this book in that this could be a real life relationship made this a must read for me.

Devilishly Sizzling Sin is more accurate for Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde's collaboration!!! Surprise! It's a Boy! Saint Clay has a twin brother and he is one Dirty Dirty man - in the best possible way. Although "Dirty Sexy Sinner" is a stand alone novel it is part of the Dirty Sexy series and would be best enjoyed if all of the books were read in order. Clay, Mason, and Levi's drug addicted prostitute mother actually sold a Kincaid brother for drug money - Clay's twin brother to be specific. A brother that they didn't know about for over 20 years - even their brother didn't know until just before he came into Clay's bar to find them. He doesn't find Clay but he does find the bar's manager/bartender Tara, a fixture in all of the Dirty Sexy books. Tara recognizes right away that Jackson is not Clay and per his request calls in his twin - and she takes it upon herself to make sure that he brings in the two other Kincaid boys to meet the prodigal brother. While they wait Tara and Jackson have an easy and comfortable conversation, with a little bit of flirting, putting him at ease until the brothers come into the bar. Even though the very wary Kincaid brothers aren't pulling Jackson into the fold, a connection was made between Jackson and Tara and although the Kincaid men don't reach out to him he does reach out to Tara. Tara's unconditional acceptance and friendship is something that Jackson isn't used to and he craves, more than anyone realizes. Tara more than understands Jackson's family dynamic she actually relates to it, but Tara's outcome wasn't the same as Jackson's, instead of striving harder to seek approval and then succeed for himself she went the opposite direction and down a darker path. Although she more than likes Jackson. the time they spend together, and the way he makes her feel she knows that because of her secret and shamefully tragic past she doesn't fit in his world of business professionals, Porsches, and downtown Chicago condos. Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde have this installment in the Dirty Sexy series moving with a fast paced story line and extremely likable characters. The sex scenes are off the charts Smoking Hot!!! Jackson is by far the most dirty talking, dominating, and insatiable Kincaid brother - in my opinion - in the series. "Dirty Sexy Sinner" is fantastic fun and the perfect book to finish out the series!
Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde's Dirty Sexy series is flawless - every book is a winner. "Dirty Sexy Sinner" just doesn't keep that streak alive it is a Knock Out! This "surprise" fourth brother's book is a phenomenal ending to the series - the Hero and Heroine, Jackson and Tara, are the perfect balance of strong and vulnerable - sexy and slightly tentative. The pace is lively and quick and isn't bogged down by too much angst. Jackson is wonderfully and deliciously devilish, wicked, and mischievous and allows Tara to blossom beautifully.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is the fourth book and final installment in the so sexy and irresistible Dirty Sexy Series. Another awesome read from the dream team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde that I thouroughly enjoyed. They definitely know how to create lively scenes that flow seamlessly from one scene to the next making this story fast-paced and engaging.
Jackson Stone (Kincaid) just found out that his whole life has been a lie and that he has three brothers - one of which being his twin - he hadn’t even known existed until two weeks ago. Jackson is now figuring out why he has spent the past thirty-two years feeling like an outsider in his own family, and why he grew up with the constant rejection of his father, the man who raised him. From anyone on the outside looking in, he’s a confident and successfull achitect who had built a fantastic life for himself. But everything he’d accomplished and obtained had never filled that empty hole inside him. Still dealing with the truth and all the details surrounding his birth and illegal adoption, he decides to meet his sibblings to let them know about their long-lost brother and in the hope of getting some kind of closure on a past that was filled with nothing but heartache and disappointments.
Tara is a survivor with a rough and damage past that has left her jaded. For the last six years, she has been working as a bartender at the Kincaids Bar. Clay Kincaid was the one who offered her a job and a chance to get it right. Since then, she’d felt the support of the Kincaids and they are all like family to each other. When Tara meets Jackson she can't help the draw she feels toward him but she knew that she carried around way too much baggage of guilt and regrets on her conscience for a man like him. She’s convinced that her ugly past made her unworthy of loving and being loved.
« I’ll never be free of my past. The terrible choices I made and the consequences I’ll live with forever.»
Jackson’s infatuation with Tara is out of character for him, but he doesn’t want to question such a strong, instantaneous connection to this woman when so much in his life had been clouded by uncertainty.
“Sweetheart, this isn’t some kind of fairy tale that goes away when the clock strikes midnight, It’s you and me together, and it’s as real as it gets. Don’t ever doubt that.”
As these two spend time together, Jackson slowly helps Tara battle her insecurities and fears that still plagued her, while Tara gaves him the sense of belonging and the unconditional acceptance he’d searched his entire life for.
« She realized how much she appreciated being the center of his attention. She felt spoiled and pampered and cared for . . . and those were luxuries she’d lived most of her life without. »
Loved this straight up, awesome, witty, fun, hot and smexy erotic romance. The undeniable and instant attraction between Tara and Jackson was intense and delicious. The chemistry between them which started right from the moment their eyes meet up, was sizzling and perfect. Oh my God. Jackson made me swoon, fan and possibly burst into flames. He’s totally Alpha, but so kind and considerate...and freaking hot ! Tara is also a wonderful character. She’s strong, resilient and loyal to a fault. They complemented each other in every way that mattered.
It was great revisiting all the previous characters and I really enjoyed their happy ending. The Kincaid brothers are something else. They are loyal, passionate and protective. These men who valued honesty, integrity and trust are really every woman’s erotic daydream. A drool-worthy and truly enjoyable series, I highly recommend.

4 stars
I am so angry with myself because I didn't know about this series. This is the first book I am reading from this series and it did not disappoint. The characters were great in this book. It can be read as a stand alone, but I ran into is that yes you don't need to know the background of the brothers, but I think it would have given you a complete story of everyone if you read them in order. I loved these Kinkaid brothers, they were absolutely great. They all have a story and the story is not a fairy tale. It is real life and knowing that made the story real. This story is about Jackson and Tara. Tara has been with the Kinkaid brothers for a long time and her story is one of recovery, reconciliation, and forgiving herself. Jackson just found out some shocking information and when he tries to figure out what life has thrown at him he meets Tara. These two each have a past that is not pretty, but they are hoping if they have a future together it will be spectacular.
Jackson is a man looking to find a family that he never knew he had till recently. Being sold to someone to raise, then to be treated as he was nothing, he is looking for answers to why this has happened. Jackson is a strong individual. He has worked so hard for what he has, nothing was given to him, so when he walks into his brothers bar to finally meet him he is looking to find the family that he always wanted. He knows it wasn't going to be easy, but he just want to know what he missed out. I think he was one of the most thought out characters of this book. What he had to endure, what he made of himself and what he did for Tara, well that makes him a Kinkaid in me book. Tara was just as important in this book. She has been on this path, not looking too forward, but enough to keep moving on. When she meets Jackson, she knows she has found her something more to move on to. They will not have an easy path, but when they collide, they will see if they both found what they were looking for.
I loved this book. The Kinkaid's are these brothers that have stuck together from the beginning and never took each other for granted. The interactions between them all is what family is for. The more I got into this book, the more I wanted. I want to know about all the Kinkaid's what their story is.

After the jaw-dropping revelation at the end of the previous book in the Dirty Sexy series I was left counting down the days to see what kind of fall-out would arise. This book picks up immediately after the discovery of a lost twin and the sparks fly from the moment the sexy and successful Jackson sees sweet-natured bartender Tara. With Jackson looking to become part of a family and Tara looking for a bit of fun after years of self-flagellation they become an unlikely couple whose future might be ruined by their pasts in this fast-paced romance.
Jackson was born part of the Kincaid family but through a strange twist of fate he ended up the son of wealthy parents. He might've had monetary riches but when it came to love there was none for him. His father never acknowledged him or praised any of his successes, he was never made to feel worthy. Finding out he was the twin of Clay Kincaid was therefore a relief, but the three brothers didn't welcome him with open arms in a homecoming that was a disappointment to him. The one person to welcome him was Tara who became the catalyst for him finding a place to call home, not only in her arms but in his brother's lives. Theirs is a combustible connection from the very start, weighed down by pasts they'd like to forget. He's a bit untrusting and full of self-doubts early on which has him questioning everything he feels for Tara. Beneath his suits though he's a sexy beast with a talent for sinning which ultimately leads to scorching encounters that slowly bind him and Tara together. Erotic interludes, and her own fears, soon have him putting his heart on the line in an ending that had me cheering. Jackson's clearly a Kincaid as he oozes sex appeal and protectiveness. He has a talent for dirty talk and the charm to get Tara to sin right alongside him in encounters that had me blushing too. From start to finish their romance was one of healing and acceptance and it was an emotional journey readers are lucky to be a part of.
Tara's past is one she's still trying to forget as it's mired in addiction. Feelings of inadequacy and uncaring parents led her astray and sent her life spiraling into drugs despite her middle class upbringing. Clay was the first person to give her a chance when she was ready to start over, and the Kincaid's became her new-found family, which has her very protective of them despite her attraction to Jackson. Knowing what it's like to be judged by your appearance though has her helping him get closer to the hard-headed brothers in their erotically-charged relationship that becomes more freeing the more time they spend together. Tara's kind hearted but tells it like it is which had me liking her all the more and enjoying her interactions with the wives of the Kincaid brothers as none of them held anything back. Tara's full of self-doubts though, never thinking she's good enough for Jackson, in their relationship that was one of opposites attracting. Late in the story her self-doubts take over completely in a twist that seemed silly but was luckily resolved quickly. On a whole Tara's an appealing heroine who rose up from rock bottom, proving her inner strength, which made her HEA all the more rewarding.
This was a quick read, a fun and flirty one that touched on issues of addiction too. While the issue wasn't at the forefront it wasn't sugarcoated either which has me applauding the authors. Jackson and Tara were made to feel lacking early in life but in each other's arms they found complete acceptance. Theirs was a scorching relationship that became more erotic as the story progressed which brought out Jackson's commanding side and set Tara free when it came to her desires. It was a relationship that ultimately had me cheering for their hard-fought HEA. I enjoyed seeing the Kincaid brothers once again, along with their tight brotherly bond, that showed itself through playful and mocking interactions that you could see Jackson longing for. The Kincaid wives also made appearances and were a much-needed sounding board for Tara when her self-doubts had her running. Another secondary character to leave a lasting impression was Jackson's friend Wes, an unapologetic player drawn to a good girl. The glimpse we had of him is a tempting one and I look forward to the sensual battle sure to be waged in the next book from these authors. This was a satisfying read for the most part despite my quibbles over the moments of unnecessary angst and Tara's actions late in the story that felt overly dramatic. With its slew of HEAs, and an epilogue that tied up everything with a big bow, readers will be left smiling and yet ready for more from this dynamic duo!

LET THE SINNING BEGIN!!!
Wowza! I do declare that DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the most EXPLOSIVELY HOT book in the Dirty Sexy series!!!! Once again Romance Dream Team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde penned a PASSIONATE, PROVOCATIVE and SINFULLY SEXY erotic romance that left my heart all flutter!
This is the story of Jackson Stone (separated at birth from identical twin Clay Kincaid) who is reeling from the bombshell he’s been dealt with upon learning that he has three long lost brothers! He is hoping to reconnect with his bros, Clay, Mason and Levi, who have no clue he even exists. When the book opens, exotically pretty, azure-eyed bartender Tara Kent does a double take when Jackson strides into the bar, because he is the spitting image of her boss, Clay, but acts and dresses nothing like him. In between naughty banter and sips of high-end scotch, Jackson divulges the chain of events that brought him to Kincaid's Bar. Despite her wariness, his "sob story" strikes a chord in Tara and she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the handsome and debonair stranger!
After a lifetime of lies, deceit and betrayal, Jackson isn’t a man who trusts easily but there is something about sweet, saucy spitfire Tara that gets under his skin—and makes him want to do deliciously dirty thing to her luscious body!! Both of them have felt like outcasts all their lives and they share a common heartache--and a blazing attraction that can’t be denied. However, their pasts preclude them both from fully opening their hearts to love. And it doesn’t help that the close-knit Kincaid brothers, who are distrustful of the filthy rich “interloper,” are not exactly rolling out the welcome mat and are especially not gung ho about Jackson wooing Tara, who they feel fiercely protective over.
Over the course of the story, Tara acts as a buffer to try to bridge the gap between the brothers and falls head over heels in love with her hot, insatiably sexy lover! But nevertheless worries she will never fit into Jackson’s upscale world. Can these two damaged, broken souls find everlasting love and acceptance, and make each other whole and complete in each other’s tender loving arms?
I think this bonus book in the Dirty Sexy series was all kinds of delicious!! I adored the sizzling sparks between Tara and Jackson and was totally swept up in their whirlwind courtship. This was very much a story about instant COMBUSTIBLE lust that evolves into true love, and I relished every single, scorching hot moment!
OMGGGEEEE Jackson is one utterly irresistible Dirty Sexy Sinner!! He is mouthwateringly sexy, oozing testosterone and oodles of charm, with just enough bad boy thrown in to make me drool!! There must be something in the Kincaid bloodline that makes these men so utterly SWOONWORTHY and PANTY-MELTING hot! Like his brothers, Jackson is handsome and honorable, deeply chivalrous, and of course, pure Alpha male TEMPTATION, with a penchant for indulging in rough, dirty, forbidden pleasure. And he too has an exquisitely gentle side and knows how to cherish his woman!
But that is where the similarities end, at least on the surface. Unlike his brothers’ blue collar lifestyle, Jackson is a successful architect who earns a six-figure salary and moves in upscale circles. But all the money and success in the world cannot fill the aching void in his life, the soul-deep longing for love and acceptance. A place to truly belong. My heart throbbed for Jackson who seemed so emotionally bereft and alone but hid it well beneath his kindness, disarming smiles and filthy mouthed come-ons!
And Tara, who has also felt like an outsider all her life, is the perfect woman for Jackson. I loved her sassy, edgy and compassionate nature. They complement each other beautifully, despite their different stations in life. But there are bumps in the road because Tara is harboring deep dark secrets from her past, and is plagued with crippling shame and guilt. Though she’s worked really hard to overcome her past and find her place in the world she worries that she will never be worthy of a rich and successful man like Jackson, a highly respected pillar of society. But of course her hot-blooded lover is bound and determined to make her HIS no matter what!
I was very drawn to this couple because I felt their special connection from the start. This is a very magnetic, sexually charged romance but it was also infused with poignancy and sweet tenderness. Trusting others did not come easily for either of them but they become one another’s safe place to fall and slowly but surely let their barriers down. Tara makes Jackson feel loved and accepted, and in return, he makes her feel vibrant and alive, pampered and protected, and his dominance in the bedroom brings out the dirty, wanton girl in her!!!
Overall I think this book works seamlessly and certainly hits my sweet spot! In additional to the combustible central romance, I must give a shout out to Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde for giving us so many charming scenes with Jackson, the broody Kincaid brothers and their adorable brides. The brotherly repartee was delightfully entertaining and omg Mason was an absolute riot in all his macho, smart-alecky splendor!!
The only reason I am awarding this book 4 stars instead of 5 is because I personally prefer books with a little more romantic angst and emotional tension. Up until the end of the book, which had a wonderful emotional black moment by the way, most of the strife seemed to be primarily in their heads. I would have liked to see a little bit more romantic friction and push-pull between this couple throughout. Jackson and Tara have rich, complex backstories to draw from—they both had painful upbringings which caused substantial psychological damage-- but their emotional hang-ups didn’t really hamper the development of the romance. Ultimately, I think that adding a bit more discord might have made for a more highly charged, emotionally impactful love story.
I also would have liked to have seen a few scenes showing Jackson forging a relationship with his estranged brothers…their reconciliation happened mostly off page. However, that said, I was truly invested in this story and the epilogue, where the entire Kincaid family came together, was so heartstirringly beautiful, it gave me GOOSEBUMPS and had me reaching for my hankie!
Bottom line…Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde should pat themselves on the backs for a specular finale to a Dirty Sexy series! The engaging writing, deliciously filthy-talking Alpha Men, sassy heroines, LOL funny brotherly comradery, tumultuous backstories and, of course, SCORCHING HOT romances made for a deeply moving and highly addictive series!
This final installment also offered a tantalizing tease for HOT AS SIN, book 1 in the dynamic duo’s brand new BOOK BOYFRIEND series, which features Jackson’s buddy, Wes, a notorious womanizer who meets his match in the one woman who is immune to his charms. Bring these Alphalicious BBFs on!!!
Wowza! I do declare that DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the most EXPLOSIVELY HOT book in the Dirty Sexy series!!!! Once again Romance Dream Team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde penned a PASSIONATE, PROVOCATIVE and SINFULLY SEXY erotic romance that left my heart all flutter!
This is the story of Jackson Stone (separated at birth from identical twin Clay Kincaid) who is reeling from the bombshell he’s been dealt with upon learning that he has three long lost brothers! He is hoping to reconnect with his bros, Clay, Mason and Levi, who have no clue he even exists. When the book opens, exotically pretty, azure-eyed bartender Tara Kent does a double take when Jackson strides into the bar, because he is the spitting image of her boss, Clay, but acts and dresses nothing like him. In between naughty banter and sips of high-end scotch, Jackson divulges the chain of events that brought him to Kincaid's Bar. Despite her wariness, his "sob story" strikes a chord in Tara and she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the handsome and debonair stranger!
After a lifetime of lies, deceit and betrayal, Jackson isn’t a man who trusts easily but there is something about sweet, saucy spitfire Tara that gets under his skin—and makes him want to do deliciously dirty thing to her luscious body!! Both of them have felt like outcasts all their lives and they share a common heartache--and a blazing attraction that can’t be denied. However, their pasts preclude them both from fully opening their hearts to love. And it doesn’t help that the close-knit Kincaid brothers, who are distrustful of the filthy rich “interloper,” are not exactly rolling out the welcome mat and are especially not gung ho about Jackson wooing Tara, who they feel fiercely protective over.
Over the course of the story, Tara acts as a buffer to try to bridge the gap between the brothers and falls head over heels in love with her hot, insatiably sexy lover! But nevertheless worries she will never fit into Jackson’s upscale world. Can these two damaged, broken souls find everlasting love and acceptance, and make each other whole and complete in each other’s tender loving arms?
I think this bonus book in the Dirty Sexy series was all kinds of delicious!! I adored the sizzling sparks between Tara and Jackson and was totally swept up in their whirlwind courtship. This was very much a story about instant COMBUSTIBLE lust that evolves into true love, and I relished every single, scorching hot moment!
OMGGGEEEE Jackson is one utterly irresistible Dirty Sexy Sinner!! He is mouthwateringly sexy, oozing testosterone and oodles of charm, with just enough bad boy thrown in to make me drool!! There must be something in the Kincaid bloodline that makes these men so utterly SWOONWORTHY and PANTY-MELTING hot! Like his brothers, Jackson is handsome and honorable, deeply chivalrous, and of course, pure Alpha male TEMPTATION, with a penchant for indulging in rough, dirty, forbidden pleasure. And he too has an exquisitely gentle side and knows how to cherish his woman!
But that is where the similarities end, at least on the surface. Unlike his brothers’ blue collar lifestyle, Jackson is a successful architect who earns a six-figure salary and moves in upscale circles. But all the money and success in the world cannot fill the aching void in his life, the soul-deep longing for love and acceptance. A place to truly belong. My heart throbbed for Jackson who seemed so emotionally bereft and alone but hid it well beneath his kindness, disarming smiles and filthy mouthed come-ons!

Dirty Sexy Sinner is the fourth story in Carly Phillips and Erika's Wilde's sexy contemporary romance series Dirty Sexy. Each story in the series to date has been a fun and enjoyable (and steamy) read and I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was another book coming out in the series, having assumed it was a trilogy. But Tara, Clay's chief bartender, hadn't yet gotten a happy ending so I'm delighted that the authors decided to write one for her as well.
Tara is a busy woman. She works evening hours at the bar, is just finishing up her degree and has little to no time for a social life. That all changes when Jackson Stone walks into Kincaid's. Startlingly familiar and yet totally unknown, Jackson is a twin to Clay, separated at birth and only having recently discovered that he has three brothers. An accomplished architect, he's successful but lonely, no current woman in his life after having gone through a painful divorce, and no family worth speaking of. While he's hoping to change the family part, his immediate attraction to Tara can't be denied. Nor can Tara deny the obvious either. Though she's always had a sisterly affection for Clay, there had never been the spark between them that is clearly there between her and Jackson. They both admit that all they have time for in their lives right now is an uncomplicated sexual relationship. But as they spend time together and their feelings get stronger, will they be willing to take a chance on a future together?
This novella delivered on all counts. It's a wonderful romance for Tara and for Jackson, two lonely people who start out their relationship with a blazing sexual chemistry but soon find that they are just as interested in spending time together outside of the bedroom. They share some very sexy scenes together (Jackson's no slouch in the dirty talking department!). Jackson's had a difficult upbringing, as have the Kincaid brothers Clay, Mason and Levi, and there is some understandable tension between them with this startling revelation that they have an unknown sibling. Tara also has some parts of her past that she isn't proud of, things that happened that had disastrous consequences for which she's felt enormous guilt but has worked at forgiving herself. Her relationship with Jackson brings some of that back into focus again. Both of them have issues to deal with before they can find their happy ending. There are some surprising cameos in this story, as well as an introduction to some characters that will be the lead in to a new series by these authors (yay!). As well, we get to catch up on the couples from the first three books in the series and a delightful epilogue to tie everything together. This writing duo is quickly becoming a go-to one for me when I'm in the mood for a sexy contemporary romance and I look forward to more of their collaborative efforts!

What Worked For Me: The Dirty Sexy Series has been a wicked and sexy series to read so I was thrilled to find out there was another long-lost Kincaid brother. Seriously, three uber-alpha, dirty talking bad boys was enough to make me swoon but thrown in a fourth....yeah, I was pretty much catatonic by the end of this book. Jackson is the twin brother of Clay, and since I'm not spoiling this book for you, you have to read it to find out how these two twins were separated as very young children. Jackson has a very naughty mouth (my panties were melting halfway through this book) and he hides a sinfully delicious mind and body behind three piece suits. Jackson learns about his siblings and upon his first encounter with them he comes face to face with his destiny. Our ultra cool and fiercely loyal bartender, Tara. Seriously, normally I'm salivating for our heroes story but since she was first introduced to us, I've been anticipating to hear all about Tara. Her past is heartbreaking, but very REAL!!! I love a heroine who falls so far but rises above and achieves so much, rather than becoming a broken mess who does nothing but whine. Tara is an amazingly strong and graceful heroine who I rooted for from the very beginning. These two have pasts full of sorrow and pain but they find themselves believing in futures they never thought possible. Their chemistry is dynamite and their emotion towards each other was poignant and moving. It was a spectacular journey, watching them forge a path together. It was even more fun read about Jackson and his brothers finding their footing in a new relationship. You can expect lots of emotion, plenty of moments that pull at the heartstrings, seriously decadent sex scenes, a little bit of tension, and a WHOLE lot of fun in this final book of the series. Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde are a winning combination and I am eagerly anticipating what this writing duo brings to the table for us next. I can't imagine it gets but much better than this but hey, I invite them to prove me (and other readers) wrong.
Would I Recommend This Book: Yes! Especially if you love dirty talking alpha with a little bit of a dominant street, sweet sassy heroines who know how to appreciate a good man when they find one, and second chance at love romances. Seriously, you should just read the whole series.
Final Star Rating: 5 stars

Deliciously wicked and sinful!!!! Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde ended Dirty Sexy Series with a bang as they treated their readers with a surprise book with Dirty Sexy Sinner. And let me just say Jackson Stone is both a saint and sinner!!!!
“Do you want to sin with me, Tara?”
If you are a fan of a dirty talking alpha hero who loves to sin when it comes to hot sex, then you definitely need to read Dirty Sexy Sinner because Jackson Stone will have your panties wet and twisted right on the opening pages. So before I begin this review, I think it’s best I make a confession. I don’t want to be a sinner but after reading this book, I am sinner when it comes to Jackson’s dirty talking mouth.
“She wanted to take a chance with Jackson. Sexually speaking, that was. Nothing complicated. Just sex for the sake of pleasure. This gorgeous guy who’d already admitted he wanted to do dirty, bad things to her was the perfect man to end her six-year drought.”
In the first three books of this series, we were introduced to the three Kincaid brothers. First, we met Clay, who was known as the Saint, and then we met Mason, the playboy inked bad boy brother, and lastly we met Levi, the responsible quiet reserved younger brother. We thought all the Kincaid brothers found their happily ever afters but I guess we were wrong since Carly & Erika decided to surprise readers to Clay’s long lost missing twin brother, Jackson Stone.
When Jackson discovered that his biological mother sold him to the Stone family, Jackson hired a PI to track down his siblings so he could get to know them. When he entered Clay’s bar, he didn’t know what to expect especially how would his brother’s react in discovering that their mother sold Jackson. Well as it turns out, he didn’t expect his brothers to treat him the way he did. The only bright side to this ordeal was that he met Tara Kent.
Tara immediately saw something in Jackson that none of his brothers saw. She saw that Jackson was just an ordinary man looking for a family to be part of and that he yearned to have the same family bond that Clay, Mason and Levi have with each other. And so when Jackson decided to form a kind of friendship with Tara, who happens to be the manager/bartender at Clay’s bar, sparks begins to fly between the two.
The chemistry between Jackson and Tara was explosive. This connection and yearning to be with Jackson was something that Tara never had experienced especially in a long time. He made her want to sin. She wanted to do all the naughty,filthy and dirty sexual things with Jackson. She wanted to sin. And boy oh boy, did she sin!!!
As Jackson and Tara formed a deeper relationship, Tara was able to show the Kincaid brothers that their perception of Jackson needs to change. He too had a difficult upbringing and that they should not judge easily. Soon Tara became the bridge to unite the Kincaid brothers. As Jackson was able to form a relationship with his brothers, what happens when Tara’s past and present collides? Can this sinner show Tara that her past sins are forgiven and that she needs to start living her own life and not in her personal purgatory?
Dirty Sexy Sinner is not only a hot, sexy, steamy and passionate love story but this book took on more of an emotional undertone of second chances. I love that the authors were able to show a strong heroine rediscovering and claiming back her life and happiness. This fourth installment was also a special treat for readers who have read Ella Frank’s Temptation Series as Logan and Tate make a cameo appearance. So if you are looking for a hot as sin read, then look no further than Dirty Sexy Sinner because sinning with a dirty mouth hero never felt so good!!
P.S. I seriously can’t wait for Hot as Sin in the Book Boyfriend Series. Carly and Erika has me so excited for Wes Sinclair. I can’t wait for this heart-breaker to finally meet his match.

Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde created one hell of a group of brothers in their Dirty Series and now to learn that there’s a fourth one to add to the sinfully handsome trio only sweetens the pot, despite the brothers’ hesitancy when it comes to what Jackson Stone might want from them.
What struck me the most as I was reading Jackson and Tara’s story is how alike Jackson is to the brothers he only recently found out he had. Due to his childhood and other people’s deception, Jackson is extremely guarded, unwilling to trust people and refusing to let people in, which absolutely describes Clay, Mason, and Levi. Jackson has always felt like an outsider in his own family and by the Kincaid brothers shutting him out, Jackson, once again, feels like he doesn’t belong and that he’s not good enough for his own flesh and blood.
Jackson Stone may be Saint Clay Kincaid’s long lost twin, but there doesn’t seem to be anything saintly about Jackson, which is exactly what readers will adore about him, and it’s what Tara Kent is drawn to from their first encounter. Tara has her own insecurities and the baggage she carries definitely weighs her down, but her flirty exchange with Jackson and how they seem to captivate one another, helps them both to understand that their pasts should not define their present and risking their hearts to one another is not something they have to worry about because they make each other feel worthy and significant.
Both Tara and Jackson seem to be made for sinning and the sinful ways they explore one another solidifies a connection that has been there between them from the beginning, and their bond also gives Jackson a chance to prove himself to his brothers and hopefully build a relationship with them that will finally give Jackson a family who wants him and won’t betray him for their own gain.
Out of all the brothers, I have to say that Jackson might just be my favorite. I’d gladly sin with him that’s for sure because his alpha male characteristics along with his dirty talking skills and sexual prowess as well as his intelligence and drive to succeed make him one hell of a sinfully sexy package!

DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the fourth installment in the Dirty Sexy contemporary, adult, erotic, romance series co-authored by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde. This is bartender Tara Kent, and Jackson Stone’s story line. DIRTY SEXY SINNER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and the family history between the Kincaid brothers.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Tara and Jackson) DIRTY SEXY SINNER focuses on the unknown Kincaid brother-Jackson Stone- Clay’s identical twin and a man none of the Kincaid brothers knew anything about. Jackson was adopted as a baby and only recently discovered that his adoption was illegal. His birth mother was a crack addict and life in the Stone household was anything but pleasant for Jackson Stone. With the recent reveal of his true identity Jackson goes in search of the brothers he never knew. Enter Tara Kent, Clay’s friend and co-worker, and the woman that would call to Jackson’s heart.
DIRTY SEXY SINNER is a story line focusing on betrayal, family and acceptance. Both Tara and Jackson’s lives are mired in neglect, dark secrets, and broken dreams. Jackson’s attraction to Tara is immediate but Tara’s relationship with Clay may be an obstacle that stands in their way. What ensues is the building relationship between Tara and Jackson, and Jackson’s less than warm welcome in the Kincaid clan. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense. Jackson likes to spank in the bedroom.
All of the previous story line couples play secondary and supporting characters. Clay has been caught unaware that he had another brother let alone a twin who is identical in every way.
DIRTY SEXY SINNER is a provocative and energetic read; a heartwarming story about family and friendships, second chances, and finding your soul mate when you least expect it. The premise is moving; the characters are passionate; the romance is sexy and intimate.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is an incredibly sexy contemporary romance between two characters who have both lived tough lives for very different reasons and how they get a second chance at love without the emotional baggage of their pasts affecting them.
Jackson and Tara, who tell the book through dual points of view, have such a sizzling chemistry from the start that only continues to heat up as the book progresses (trust me, this book will leave you feeling all hot under the collar, especially with Jackson’s alpha persona and dirty talking!). Both characters have emotional scars from the past that impact on them today and shape who they are but the challenge for these two is to learn to open up and let each other in in order to fully embrace a happily ever after filled with love and happiness. Tara is a strong, independent woman who was the perfect match for Jackson. I loved the impact of secondary characters in developing these two further.
As always with Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde books, this is well written with a strong writing style, an easy flow, and steady-to-fast pace. This book definitely pulls at your heartstrings at times with it’s emotional undertones with some of the serious issues both have faced in their pasts. While the book, overall, had a great blend of romance and steamy scenes, the tension throughout adds a real depth to the story that will keep you intrigued from start to finish. For those who have read previous books, it was nice to re-visit the story with familiar faces but it can be read as a standalone with a HEA.
Overall, I would highly recommend this sexy, well written, contemporary romance.
*I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book. I was not compensated for my review, and I was not required to write a positive review. The opinion expressed here is my own.

While the book, overall, had a great blend of romance and steamy scenes, the tension throughout adds a real depth to the story that will keep you intrigued from start to finish. For those who have read previous books, it was nice to re-visit the story with familiar faces but it can be read as a standalone with a HEA.
Overall, I would highly recommend this sexy, well written, contemporary romance.
*I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book. I was not compensated for my review, and I was not required to write a positive review. The opinion expressed here is my own.

holy batcave batman Jackson is one sexy beast of a man. He is also insanely sweet and honorable like his brothers. We see Jackson also as vulnerable. He has been through alot and all he wants is a family and love. He wants acceptance and to belong. Like Tara. Unlike Tara Jackson hides his heart and vulnerability behind his swagger and confidence. His confidence in himself. He is smart, sexy as sin and a good guy. He guards himself though and has lost alot. He is on a search for his brothers the Kincaids and hoping they will give him a chance.
Tara has a past that she fought to overcome but she doesn’t ever feel she deserves happiness and love. She is mired in guilt from her sins and doesn’t let it go. When she meets Jackson she begins to hope. Hope for forgiveness, love and new beginnings. He doesn’t judge her for her past and is open and honest with her. He shows her only kindness, love and patience as she does for him. Together they are awesome and she helps him stay strong in the face of reluctance from his brothers. Watching him crack their shells with the help of the feisty and sweet Tara was so much fun as was seeing the attraction unfold between tara and Jackson.
Brothers that are hard to crack but when he does he gets a amazing family and sense of belonging. This is the fun entertaining and sexy story of Jackson and Tara. How they met, fell in love, healed one another and found each other at a time when both were searching for more and acceptance for who they are. A sexy fun way to end the series and hopefully we will get to see more of them in the future in novellas to tell us how they are all doing.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is about Jackson and Tara. We know Tara from the other 3 Dirty Sexy books as Kincade's trusty and sassy bartender. Jackson is Clay's (the brother from book one, Dirty Sexy Saint) secret twin brother. Turns out, their mother sold Jackson for drug money. Jackson just found out and is trying to make contact with all 3 of his brothers. He winds up at Kincade's and meets Tara. It's an instant attraction for them both, but they both have heartbreaking pasts that keep them from opening up to anyone.
I don't give spoilers, so that's as much of the story as I'll give. I have loved all 4 of these brothers' stories and it would be hard to pick a favorite, but I'm leaning towards Jackson at the moment. His feelings for Tara are just...OMG. I couldn't get enough! This story brings all the couples from the other 3 books in as well, so we get a little more of each of their stories, too.
This book had it all: romance, super hot sex scenes, heartbreak, strong family dynamics...just everything. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of the books in this series and am sad to see it end. I do look forward to Carly & Erika's next series, The Book Boyfriend Series!

Carly and Erika have another hit on their hands! You do not have to read the other books in the series to read this. We knew from the prior books in the series that Tara was a great person, but I loved seeing this side of her. She's so strong and so much more than meets the eye. Love how Tara doesn't deal with the men trying to be well, men. When she puts Hank in his place, I LOLd. I really connected with her character. She seemed like a friend, someone I would like to get to know, very realistic qualities without the air of pretension. Loved the honest talk with Katrina near the end. Really made the characters realistic. So many times with novels the love seems one sided and you aren't sure how both characters fell in love. Not with this story; you felt love from both sides and understood how they got there. Jackson was great, a strong man with a sensitive side, and they sure were steamy! Not much drama, but the realism of this book in that this could be a real life relationship made this a must read for me.

Devilishly Sizzling Sin is more accurate for Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde's collaboration!!! Surprise! It's a Boy! Saint Clay has a twin brother and he is one Dirty Dirty man - in the best possible way. Although "Dirty Sexy Sinner" is a stand alone novel it is part of the Dirty Sexy series and would be best enjoyed if all of the books were read in order. Clay, Mason, and Levi's drug addicted prostitute mother actually sold a Kincaid brother for drug money - Clay's twin brother to be specific. A brother that they didn't know about for over 20 years - even their brother didn't know until just before he came into Clay's bar to find them. He doesn't find Clay but he does find the bar's manager/bartender Tara, a fixture in all of the Dirty Sexy books. Tara recognizes right away that Jackson is not Clay and per his request calls in his twin - and she takes it upon herself to make sure that he brings in the two other Kincaid boys to meet the prodigal brother. While they wait Tara and Jackson have an easy and comfortable conversation, with a little bit of flirting, putting him at ease until the brothers come into the bar. Even though the very wary Kincaid brothers aren't pulling Jackson into the fold, a connection was made between Jackson and Tara and although the Kincaid men don't reach out to him he does reach out to Tara. Tara's unconditional acceptance and friendship is something that Jackson isn't used to and he craves, more than anyone realizes. Tara more than understands Jackson's family dynamic she actually relates to it, but Tara's outcome wasn't the same as Jackson's, instead of striving harder to seek approval and then succeed for himself she went the opposite direction and down a darker path. Although she more than likes Jackson. the time they spend together, and the way he makes her feel she knows that because of her secret and shamefully tragic past she doesn't fit in his world of business professionals, Porsches, and downtown Chicago condos. Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde have this installment in the Dirty Sexy series moving with a fast paced story line and extremely likable characters. The sex scenes are off the charts Smoking Hot!!! Jackson is by far the most dirty talking, dominating, and insatiable Kincaid brother - in my opinion - in the series. "Dirty Sexy Sinner" is fantastic fun and the perfect book to finish out the series!
Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde's Dirty Sexy series is flawless - every book is a winner. "Dirty Sexy Sinner" just doesn't keep that streak alive it is a Knock Out! This "surprise" fourth brother's book is a phenomenal ending to the series - the Hero and Heroine, Jackson and Tara, are the perfect balance of strong and vulnerable - sexy and slightly tentative. The pace is lively and quick and isn't bogged down by too much angst. Jackson is wonderfully and deliciously devilish, wicked, and mischievous and allows Tara to blossom beautifully.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is the fourth book and final installment in the so sexy and irresistible Dirty Sexy Series. Another awesome read from the dream team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde that I thouroughly enjoyed. They definitely know how to create lively scenes that flow seamlessly from one scene to the next making this story fast-paced and engaging.
Jackson Stone (Kincaid) just found out that his whole life has been a lie and that he has three brothers - one of which being his twin - he hadn’t even known existed until two weeks ago. Jackson is now figuring out why he has spent the past thirty-two years feeling like an outsider in his own family, and why he grew up with the constant rejection of his father, the man who raised him. From anyone on the outside looking in, he’s a confident and successfull achitect who had built a fantastic life for himself. But everything he’d accomplished and obtained had never filled that empty hole inside him. Still dealing with the truth and all the details surrounding his birth and illegal adoption, he decides to meet his sibblings to let them know about their long-lost brother and in the hope of getting some kind of closure on a past that was filled with nothing but heartache and disappointments.
Tara is a survivor with a rough and damage past that has left her jaded. For the last six years, she has been working as a bartender at the Kincaids Bar. Clay Kincaid was the one who offered her a job and a chance to get it right. Since then, she’d felt the support of the Kincaids and they are all like family to each other. When Tara meets Jackson she can't help the draw she feels toward him but she knew that she carried around way too much baggage of guilt and regrets on her conscience for a man like him. She’s convinced that her ugly past made her unworthy of loving and being loved.
« I’ll never be free of my past. The terrible choices I made and the consequences I’ll live with forever.»
Jackson’s infatuation with Tara is out of character for him, but he doesn’t want to question such a strong, instantaneous connection to this woman when so much in his life had been clouded by uncertainty.
“Sweetheart, this isn’t some kind of fairy tale that goes away when the clock strikes midnight, It’s you and me together, and it’s as real as it gets. Don’t ever doubt that.”
As these two spend time together, Jackson slowly helps Tara battle her insecurities and fears that still plagued her, while Tara gaves him the sense of belonging and the unconditional acceptance he’d searched his entire life for.
« She realized how much she appreciated being the center of his attention. She felt spoiled and pampered and cared for . . . and those were luxuries she’d lived most of her life without. »
Loved this straight up, awesome, witty, fun, hot and smexy erotic romance. The undeniable and instant attraction between Tara and Jackson was intense and delicious. The chemistry between them which started right from the moment their eyes meet up, was sizzling and perfect. Oh my God. Jackson made me swoon, fan and possibly burst into flames. He’s totally Alpha, but so kind and considerate...and freaking hot ! Tara is also a wonderful character. She’s strong, resilient and loyal to a fault. They complemented each other in every way that mattered.
It was great revisiting all the previous characters and I really enjoyed their happy ending. The Kincaid brothers are something else. They are loyal, passionate and protective. These men who valued honesty, integrity and trust are really every woman’s erotic daydream. A drool-worthy and truly enjoyable series, I highly recommend.

This book was given for an honest review
4 stars
I am so angry with myself because I didn't know about this series. This is the first book I am reading from this series and it did not disappoint. The characters were great in this book. It can be read as a stand alone, but I ran into is that yes you don't need to know the background of the brothers, but I think it would have given you a complete story of everyone if you read them in order. I loved these Kinkaid brothers, they were absolutely great. They all have a story and the story is not a fairy tale. It is real life and knowing that made the story real. This story is about Jackson and Tara. Tara has been with the Kinkaid brothers for a long time and her story is one of recovery, reconciliation, and forgiving herself. Jackson just found out some shocking information and when he tries to figure out what life has thrown at him he meets Tara. These two each have a past that is not pretty, but they are hoping if they have a future together it will be spectacular.
Jackson is a man looking to find a family that he never knew he had till recently. Being sold to someone to raise, then to be treated as he was nothing, he is looking for answers to why this has happened. Jackson is a strong individual. He has worked so hard for what he has, nothing was given to him, so when he walks into his brothers bar to finally meet him he is looking to find the family that he always wanted. He knows it wasn't going to be easy, but he just want to know what he missed out. I think he was one of the most thought out characters of this book. What he had to endure, what he made of himself and what he did for Tara, well that makes him a Kinkaid in me book. Tara was just as important in this book. She has been on this path, not looking too forward, but enough to keep moving on. When she meets Jackson, she knows she has found her something more to move on to. They will not have an easy path, but when they collide, they will see if they both found what they were looking for.
I loved this book. The Kinkaid's are these brothers that have stuck together from the beginning and never took each other for granted. The interactions between them all is what family is for. The more I got into this book, the more I wanted. I want to know about all the Kinkaid's what their story is.

After the jaw-dropping revelation at the end of the previous book in the Dirty Sexy series I was left counting down the days to see what kind of fall-out would arise. This book picks up immediately after the discovery of a lost twin and the sparks fly from the moment the sexy and successful Jackson sees sweet-natured bartender Tara. With Jackson looking to become part of a family and Tara looking for a bit of fun after years of self-flagellation they become an unlikely couple whose future might be ruined by their pasts in this fast-paced romance.
Jackson was born part of the Kincaid family but through a strange twist of fate he ended up the son of wealthy parents. He might've had monetary riches but when it came to love there was none for him. His father never acknowledged him or praised any of his successes, he was never made to feel worthy. Finding out he was the twin of Clay Kincaid was therefore a relief, but the three brothers didn't welcome him with open arms in a homecoming that was a disappointment to him. The one person to welcome him was Tara who became the catalyst for him finding a place to call home, not only in her arms but in his brother's lives. Theirs is a combustible connection from the very start, weighed down by pasts they'd like to forget. He's a bit untrusting and full of self-doubts early on which has him questioning everything he feels for Tara. Beneath his suits though he's a sexy beast with a talent for sinning which ultimately leads to scorching encounters that slowly bind him and Tara together. Erotic interludes, and her own fears, soon have him putting his heart on the line in an ending that had me cheering. Jackson's clearly a Kincaid as he oozes sex appeal and protectiveness. He has a talent for dirty talk and the charm to get Tara to sin right alongside him in encounters that had me blushing too. From start to finish their romance was one of healing and acceptance and it was an emotional journey readers are lucky to be a part of.
Tara's past is one she's still trying to forget as it's mired in addiction. Feelings of inadequacy and uncaring parents led her astray and sent her life spiraling into drugs despite her middle class upbringing. Clay was the first person to give her a chance when she was ready to start over, and the Kincaid's became her new-found family, which has her very protective of them despite her attraction to Jackson. Knowing what it's like to be judged by your appearance though has her helping him get closer to the hard-headed brothers in their erotically-charged relationship that becomes more freeing the more time they spend together. Tara's kind hearted but tells it like it is which had me liking her all the more and enjoying her interactions with the wives of the Kincaid brothers as none of them held anything back. Tara's full of self-doubts though, never thinking she's good enough for Jackson, in their relationship that was one of opposites attracting. Late in the story her self-doubts take over completely in a twist that seemed silly but was luckily resolved quickly. On a whole Tara's an appealing heroine who rose up from rock bottom, proving her inner strength, which made her HEA all the more rewarding.
This was a quick read, a fun and flirty one that touched on issues of addiction too. While the issue wasn't at the forefront it wasn't sugarcoated either which has me applauding the authors. Jackson and Tara were made to feel lacking early in life but in each other's arms they found complete acceptance. Theirs was a scorching relationship that became more erotic as the story progressed which brought out Jackson's commanding side and set Tara free when it came to her desires. It was a relationship that ultimately had me cheering for their hard-fought HEA. I enjoyed seeing the Kincaid brothers once again, along with their tight brotherly bond, that showed itself through playful and mocking interactions that you could see Jackson longing for. The Kincaid wives also made appearances and were a much-needed sounding board for Tara when her self-doubts had her running. Another secondary character to leave a lasting impression was Jackson's friend Wes, an unapologetic player drawn to a good girl. The glimpse we had of him is a tempting one and I look forward to the sensual battle sure to be waged in the next book from these authors. This was a satisfying read for the most part despite my quibbles over the moments of unnecessary angst and Tara's actions late in the story that felt overly dramatic. With its slew of HEAs, and an epilogue that tied up everything with a big bow, readers will be left smiling and yet ready for more from this dynamic duo!

LET THE SINNING BEGIN!!!
Wowza! I do declare that DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the most EXPLOSIVELY HOT book in the Dirty Sexy series!!!! Once again Romance Dream Team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde penned a PASSIONATE, PROVOCATIVE and SINFULLY SEXY erotic romance that left my heart all flutter!
This is the story of Jackson Stone (separated at birth from identical twin Clay Kincaid) who is reeling from the bombshell he’s been dealt with upon learning that he has three long lost brothers! He is hoping to reconnect with his bros, Clay, Mason and Levi, who have no clue he even exists. When the book opens, exotically pretty, azure-eyed bartender Tara Kent does a double take when Jackson strides into the bar, because he is the spitting image of her boss, Clay, but acts and dresses nothing like him. In between naughty banter and sips of high-end scotch, Jackson divulges the chain of events that brought him to Kincaid's Bar. Despite her wariness, his "sob story" strikes a chord in Tara and she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the handsome and debonair stranger!
After a lifetime of lies, deceit and betrayal, Jackson isn’t a man who trusts easily but there is something about sweet, saucy spitfire Tara that gets under his skin—and makes him want to do deliciously dirty thing to her luscious body!! Both of them have felt like outcasts all their lives and they share a common heartache--and a blazing attraction that can’t be denied. However, their pasts preclude them both from fully opening their hearts to love. And it doesn’t help that the close-knit Kincaid brothers, who are distrustful of the filthy rich “interloper,” are not exactly rolling out the welcome mat and are especially not gung ho about Jackson wooing Tara, who they feel fiercely protective over.
Over the course of the story, Tara acts as a buffer to try to bridge the gap between the brothers and falls head over heels in love with her hot, insatiably sexy lover! But nevertheless worries she will never fit into Jackson’s upscale world. Can these two damaged, broken souls find everlasting love and acceptance, and make each other whole and complete in each other’s tender loving arms?
I think this bonus book in the Dirty Sexy series was all kinds of delicious!! I adored the sizzling sparks between Tara and Jackson and was totally swept up in their whirlwind courtship. This was very much a story about instant COMBUSTIBLE lust that evolves into true love, and I relished every single, scorching hot moment!
OMGGGEEEE Jackson is one utterly irresistible Dirty Sexy Sinner!! He is mouthwateringly sexy, oozing testosterone and oodles of charm, with just enough bad boy thrown in to make me drool!! There must be something in the Kincaid bloodline that makes these men so utterly SWOONWORTHY and PANTY-MELTING hot! Like his brothers, Jackson is handsome and honorable, deeply chivalrous, and of course, pure Alpha male TEMPTATION, with a penchant for indulging in rough, dirty, forbidden pleasure. And he too has an exquisitely gentle side and knows how to cherish his woman!
But that is where the similarities end, at least on the surface. Unlike his brothers’ blue collar lifestyle, Jackson is a successful architect who earns a six-figure salary and moves in upscale circles. But all the money and success in the world cannot fill the aching void in his life, the soul-deep longing for love and acceptance. A place to truly belong. My heart throbbed for Jackson who seemed so emotionally bereft and alone but hid it well beneath his kindness, disarming smiles and filthy mouthed come-ons!
And Tara, who has also felt like an outsider all her life, is the perfect woman for Jackson. I loved her sassy, edgy and compassionate nature. They complement each other beautifully, despite their different stations in life. But there are bumps in the road because Tara is harboring deep dark secrets from her past, and is plagued with crippling shame and guilt. Though she’s worked really hard to overcome her past and find her place in the world she worries that she will never be worthy of a rich and successful man like Jackson, a highly respected pillar of society. But of course her hot-blooded lover is bound and determined to make her HIS no matter what!
I was very drawn to this couple because I felt their special connection from the start. This is a very magnetic, sexually charged romance but it was also infused with poignancy and sweet tenderness. Trusting others did not come easily for either of them but they become one another’s safe place to fall and slowly but surely let their barriers down. Tara makes Jackson feel loved and accepted, and in return, he makes her feel vibrant and alive, pampered and protected, and his dominance in the bedroom brings out the dirty, wanton girl in her!!!
Overall I think this book works seamlessly and certainly hits my sweet spot! In additional to the combustible central romance, I must give a shout out to Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde for giving us so many charming scenes with Jackson, the broody Kincaid brothers and their adorable brides. The brotherly repartee was delightfully entertaining and omg Mason was an absolute riot in all his macho, smart-alecky splendor!!
The only reason I am awarding this book 4 stars instead of 5 is because I personally prefer books with a little more romantic angst and emotional tension. Up until the end of the book, which had a wonderful emotional black moment by the way, most of the strife seemed to be primarily in their heads. I would have liked to see a little bit more romantic friction and push-pull between this couple throughout. Jackson and Tara have rich, complex backstories to draw from—they both had painful upbringings which caused substantial psychological damage-- but their emotional hang-ups didn’t really hamper the development of the romance. Ultimately, I think that adding a bit more discord might have made for a more highly charged, emotionally impactful love story.
I also would have liked to have seen a few scenes showing Jackson forging a relationship with his estranged brothers…their reconciliation happened mostly off page. However, that said, I was truly invested in this story and the epilogue, where the entire Kincaid family came together, was so heartstirringly beautiful, it gave me GOOSEBUMPS and had me reaching for my hankie!
Bottom line…Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde should pat themselves on the backs for a specular finale to a Dirty Sexy series! The engaging writing, deliciously filthy-talking Alpha Men, sassy heroines, LOL funny brotherly comradery, tumultuous backstories and, of course, SCORCHING HOT romances made for a deeply moving and highly addictive series!
This final installment also offered a tantalizing tease for HOT AS SIN, book 1 in the dynamic duo’s brand new BOOK BOYFRIEND series, which features Jackson’s buddy, Wes, a notorious womanizer who meets his match in the one woman who is immune to his charms. Bring these Alphalicious BBFs on!!!
Wowza! I do declare that DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the most EXPLOSIVELY HOT book in the Dirty Sexy series!!!! Once again Romance Dream Team Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde penned a PASSIONATE, PROVOCATIVE and SINFULLY SEXY erotic romance that left my heart all flutter!
This is the story of Jackson Stone (separated at birth from identical twin Clay Kincaid) who is reeling from the bombshell he’s been dealt with upon learning that he has three long lost brothers! He is hoping to reconnect with his bros, Clay, Mason and Levi, who have no clue he even exists. When the book opens, exotically pretty, azure-eyed bartender Tara Kent does a double take when Jackson strides into the bar, because he is the spitting image of her boss, Clay, but acts and dresses nothing like him. In between naughty banter and sips of high-end scotch, Jackson divulges the chain of events that brought him to Kincaid's Bar. Despite her wariness, his "sob story" strikes a chord in Tara and she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the handsome and debonair stranger!
After a lifetime of lies, deceit and betrayal, Jackson isn’t a man who trusts easily but there is something about sweet, saucy spitfire Tara that gets under his skin—and makes him want to do deliciously dirty thing to her luscious body!! Both of them have felt like outcasts all their lives and they share a common heartache--and a blazing attraction that can’t be denied. However, their pasts preclude them both from fully opening their hearts to love. And it doesn’t help that the close-knit Kincaid brothers, who are distrustful of the filthy rich “interloper,” are not exactly rolling out the welcome mat and are especially not gung ho about Jackson wooing Tara, who they feel fiercely protective over.
Over the course of the story, Tara acts as a buffer to try to bridge the gap between the brothers and falls head over heels in love with her hot, insatiably sexy lover! But nevertheless worries she will never fit into Jackson’s upscale world. Can these two damaged, broken souls find everlasting love and acceptance, and make each other whole and complete in each other’s tender loving arms?
I think this bonus book in the Dirty Sexy series was all kinds of delicious!! I adored the sizzling sparks between Tara and Jackson and was totally swept up in their whirlwind courtship. This was very much a story about instant COMBUSTIBLE lust that evolves into true love, and I relished every single, scorching hot moment!
OMGGGEEEE Jackson is one utterly irresistible Dirty Sexy Sinner!! He is mouthwateringly sexy, oozing testosterone and oodles of charm, with just enough bad boy thrown in to make me drool!! There must be something in the Kincaid bloodline that makes these men so utterly SWOONWORTHY and PANTY-MELTING hot! Like his brothers, Jackson is handsome and honorable, deeply chivalrous, and of course, pure Alpha male TEMPTATION, with a penchant for indulging in rough, dirty, forbidden pleasure. And he too has an exquisitely gentle side and knows how to cherish his woman!
But that is where the similarities end, at least on the surface. Unlike his brothers’ blue collar lifestyle, Jackson is a successful architect who earns a six-figure salary and moves in upscale circles. But all the money and success in the world cannot fill the aching void in his life, the soul-deep longing for love and acceptance. A place to truly belong. My heart throbbed for Jackson who seemed so emotionally bereft and alone but hid it well beneath his kindness, disarming smiles and filthy mouthed come-ons!
And Tara, who has also felt like an outsider all her life, is the perfect woman for Jackson. I loved her sassy, edgy and compassionate nature. They complement each other beautifully, despite their different stations in life. But there are bumps in the road because Tara is harboring deep dark secrets from her past, and is plagued with crippling shame and guilt. Though she’s worked really hard to overcome her past and find her place in the world she worries that she will never be worthy of a rich and successful man like Jackson, a highly respected pillar of society. But of course her hot-blooded lover is bound and determined to make her HIS no matter what!
I was very drawn to this couple because I felt their special connection from the start. This is a very magnetic, sexually charged romance but it was also infused with poignancy and sweet tenderness. Trusting others did not come easily for either of them but they become one another’s safe place to fall and slowly but surely let their barriers down. Tara makes Jackson feel loved and accepted, and in return, he makes her feel vibrant and alive, pampered and protected, and his dominance in the bedroom brings out the dirty, wanton girl in her!!!
Overall I think this book works seamlessly and certainly hits my sweet spot! In additional to the combustible central romance, I must give a shout out to Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde for giving us so many charming scenes with Jackson, the broody Kincaid brothers and their adorable brides.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is the fourth story in Carly Phillips and Erika's Wilde's sexy contemporary romance series Dirty Sexy. Each story in the series to date has been a fun and enjoyable (and steamy) read and I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was another book coming out in the series, having assumed it was a trilogy. But Tara, Clay's chief bartender, hadn't yet gotten a happy ending so I'm delighted that the authors decided to write one for her as well.
Tara is a busy woman. She works evening hours at the bar, is just finishing up her degree and has little to no time for a social life. That all changes when Jackson Stone walks into Kincaid's. Startlingly familiar and yet totally unknown, Jackson is a twin to Clay, separated at birth and only having recently discovered that he has three brothers. An accomplished architect, he's successful but lonely, no current woman in his life after having gone through a painful divorce, and no family worth speaking of. While he's hoping to change the family part, his immediate attraction to Tara can't be denied. Nor can Tara deny the obvious either. Though she's always had a sisterly affection for Clay, there had never been the spark between them that is clearly there between her and Jackson. They both admit that all they have time for in their lives right now is an uncomplicated sexual relationship. But as they spend time together and their feelings get stronger, will they be willing to take a chance on a future together?
This novella delivered on all counts. It's a wonderful romance for Tara and for Jackson, two lonely people who start out their relationship with a blazing sexual chemistry but soon find that they are just as interested in spending time together outside of the bedroom. They share some very sexy scenes together (Jackson's no slouch in the dirty talking department!). Jackson's had a difficult upbringing, as have the Kincaid brothers Clay, Mason and Levi, and there is some understandable tension between them with this startling revelation that they have an unknown sibling. Tara also has some parts of her past that she isn't proud of, things that happened that had disastrous consequences for which she's felt enormous guilt but has worked at forgiving herself. Her relationship with Jackson brings some of that back into focus again. Both of them have issues to deal with before they can find their happy ending. There are some surprising cameos in this story, as well as an introduction to some characters that will be the lead in to a new series by these authors (yay!). As well, we get to catch up on the couples from the first three books in the series and a delightful epilogue to tie everything together. This writing duo is quickly becoming a go-to one for me when I'm in the mood for a sexy contemporary romance and I look forward to more of their collaborative efforts!

What Worked For Me: The Dirty Sexy Series has been a wicked and sexy series to read so I was thrilled to find out there was another long-lost Kincaid brother. Seriously, three uber-alpha, dirty talking bad boys was enough to make me swoon but thrown in a fourth....yeah, I was pretty much catatonic by the end of this book. Jackson is the twin brother of Clay, and since I'm not spoiling this book for you, you have to read it to find out how these two twins were separated as very young children. Jackson has a very naughty mouth (my panties were melting halfway through this book) and he hides a sinfully delicious mind and body behind three piece suits. Jackson learns about his siblings and upon his first encounter with them he comes face to face with his destiny. Our ultra cool and fiercely loyal bartender, Tara. Seriously, normally I'm salivating for our heroes story but since she was first introduced to us, I've been anticipating to hear all about Tara. Her past is heartbreaking, but very REAL!!! I love a heroine who falls so far but rises above and achieves so much, rather than becoming a broken mess who does nothing but whine. Tara is an amazingly strong and graceful heroine who I rooted for from the very beginning. These two have pasts full of sorrow and pain but they find themselves believing in futures they never thought possible. Their chemistry is dynamite and their emotion towards each other was poignant and moving. It was a spectacular journey, watching them forge a path together. It was even more fun read about Jackson and his brothers finding their footing in a new relationship. You can expect lots of emotion, plenty of moments that pull at the heartstrings, seriously decadent sex scenes, a little bit of tension, and a WHOLE lot of fun in this final book of the series. Ms. Phillips and Ms. Wilde are a winning combination and I am eagerly anticipating what this writing duo brings to the table for us next. I can't imagine it gets but much better than this but hey, I invite them to prove me (and other readers) wrong.
Would I Recommend This Book: Yes! Especially if you love dirty talking alpha with a little bit of a dominant street, sweet sassy heroines who know how to appreciate a good man when they find one, and second chance at love romances. Seriously, you should just read the whole series.
Final Star Rating: 5 stars

Deliciously wicked and sinful!!!! Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde ended Dirty Sexy Series with a bang as they treated their readers with a surprise book with Dirty Sexy Sinner. And let me just say Jackson Stone is both a saint and sinner!!!!
“Do you want to sin with me, Tara?”
If you are a fan of a dirty talking alpha hero who loves to sin when it comes to hot sex, then you definitely need to read Dirty Sexy Sinner because Jackson Stone will have your panties wet and twisted right on the opening pages. So before I begin this review, I think it’s best I make a confession. I don’t want to be a sinner but after reading this book, I am sinner when it comes to Jackson’s dirty talking mouth.
“She wanted to take a chance with Jackson. Sexually speaking, that was. Nothing complicated. Just sex for the sake of pleasure. This gorgeous guy who’d already admitted he wanted to do dirty, bad things to her was the perfect man to end her six-year drought.”
In the first three books of this series, we were introduced to the three Kincaid brothers. First, we met Clay, who was known as the Saint, and then we met Mason, the playboy inked bad boy brother, and lastly we met Levi, the responsible quiet reserved younger brother. We thought all the Kincaid brothers found their happily ever afters but I guess we were wrong since Carly & Erika decided to surprise readers to Clay’s long lost missing twin brother, Jackson Stone.
When Jackson discovered that his biological mother sold him to the Stone family, Jackson hired a PI to track down his siblings so he could get to know them. When he entered Clay’s bar, he didn’t know what to expect especially how would his brother’s react in discovering that their mother sold Jackson. Well as it turns out, he didn’t expect his brothers to treat him the way he did. The only bright side to this ordeal was that he met Tara Kent.
Tara immediately saw something in Jackson that none of his brothers saw. She saw that Jackson was just an ordinary man looking for a family to be part of and that he yearned to have the same family bond that Clay, Mason and Levi have with each other. And so when Jackson decided to form a kind of friendship with Tara, who happens to be the manager/bartender at Clay’s bar, sparks begins to fly between the two.
The chemistry between Jackson and Tara was explosive. This connection and yearning to be with Jackson was something that Tara never had experienced especially in a long time. He made her want to sin. She wanted to do all the naughty,filthy and dirty sexual things with Jackson. She wanted to sin. And boy oh boy, did she sin!!!
As Jackson and Tara formed a deeper relationship, Tara was able to show the Kincaid brothers that their perception of Jackson needs to change. He too had a difficult upbringing and that they should not judge easily. Soon Tara became the bridge to unite the Kincaid brothers. As Jackson was able to form a relationship with his brothers, what happens when Tara’s past and present collides? Can this sinner show Tara that her past sins are forgiven and that she needs to start living her own life and not in her personal purgatory?
Dirty Sexy Sinner is not only a hot, sexy, steamy and passionate love story but this book took on more of an emotional undertone of second chances. I love that the authors were able to show a strong heroine rediscovering and claiming back her life and happiness. This fourth installment was also a special treat for readers who have read Ella Frank’s Temptation Series as Logan and Tate make a cameo appearance. So if you are looking for a hot as sin read, then look no further than Dirty Sexy Sinner because sinning with a dirty mouth hero never felt so good!!
P.S. I seriously can’t wait for Hot as Sin in the Book Boyfriend Series. Carly and Erika has me so excited for Wes Sinclair. I can’t wait for this heart-breaker to finally meet his match.

Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde created one hell of a group of brothers in their Dirty Series and now to learn that there’s a fourth one to add to the sinfully handsome trio only sweetens the pot, despite the brothers’ hesitancy when it comes to what Jackson Stone might want from them.
What struck me the most as I was reading Jackson and Tara’s story is how alike Jackson is to the brothers he only recently found out he had. Due to his childhood and other people’s deception, Jackson is extremely guarded, unwilling to trust people and refusing to let people in, which absolutely describes Clay, Mason, and Levi. Jackson has always felt like an outsider in his own family and by the Kincaid brothers shutting him out, Jackson, once again, feels like he doesn’t belong and that he’s not good enough for his own flesh and blood.
Jackson Stone may be Saint Clay Kincaid’s long lost twin, but there doesn’t seem to be anything saintly about Jackson, which is exactly what readers will adore about him, and it’s what Tara Kent is drawn to from their first encounter. Tara has her own insecurities and the baggage she carries definitely weighs her down, but her flirty exchange with Jackson and how they seem to captivate one another, helps them both to understand that their pasts should not define their present and risking their hearts to one another is not something they have to worry about because they make each other feel worthy and significant.
Both Tara and Jackson seem to be made for sinning and the sinful ways they explore one another solidifies a connection that has been there between them from the beginning, and their bond also gives Jackson a chance to prove himself to his brothers and hopefully build a relationship with them that will finally give Jackson a family who wants him and won’t betray him for their own gain.
Out of all the brothers, I have to say that Jackson might just be my favorite. I’d gladly sin with him that’s for sure because his alpha male characteristics along with his dirty talking skills and sexual prowess as well as his intelligence and drive to succeed make him one hell of a sinfully sexy package!

DIRTY SEXY SINNER is the fourth installment in the Dirty Sexy contemporary, adult, erotic, romance series co-authored by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde. This is bartender Tara Kent, and Jackson Stone’s story line. DIRTY SEXY SINNER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and the family history between the Kincaid brothers.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Tara and Jackson) DIRTY SEXY SINNER focuses on the unknown Kincaid brother-Jackson Stone- Clay’s identical twin and a man none of the Kincaid brothers knew anything about. Jackson was adopted as a baby and only recently discovered that his adoption was illegal. His birth mother was a crack addict and life in the Stone household was anything but pleasant for Jackson Stone. With the recent reveal of his true identity Jackson goes in search of the brothers he never knew. Enter Tara Kent, Clay’s friend and co-worker, and the woman that would call to Jackson’s heart.
DIRTY SEXY SINNER is a story line focusing on betrayal, family and acceptance. Both Tara and Jackson’s lives are mired in neglect, dark secrets, and broken dreams. Jackson’s attraction to Tara is immediate but Tara’s relationship with Clay may be an obstacle that stands in their way. What ensues is the building relationship between Tara and Jackson, and Jackson’s less than warm welcome in the Kincaid clan. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense. Jackson likes to spank in the bedroom.
All of the previous story line couples play secondary and supporting characters. Clay has been caught unaware that he had another brother let alone a twin who is identical in every way.
DIRTY SEXY SINNER is a provocative and energetic read; a heartwarming story about family and friendships, second chances, and finding your soul mate when you least expect it. The premise is moving; the characters are passionate; the romance is sexy and intimate.

**I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.**
Before I begin this review I should tell you I only read the first book about the oldest brother, Clay. I LOVED the first book but was iffy on Mason and Levi's book and so I have not read them yet. This book easily stands alone as it takes place after all the brothers are married/engaged. None of them know about Jackson and Jackson has just learned about them when the book starts.
To review this book I have to tell you who Jackson is and so if you don't want to know don't keep reading. Jackson is Clay's brother. He is a 32-year old divorced, Architech who grew up believing his father was his father with a younger brother. Then one day he finds out he has 3 brothers and a twin, not just a twin but an exact copy twin and his father was never his father. Can you even imagine?
And that is how he ends up at Clay's bar where he meets Tara who runs the bar and who helps coordinate a meeting with the brothers. I LOVED the first meeting. Think major fireworks and thats only in the first few chapters of this book.
This was a good story with lots of sex scenes and alot of insta lust/love. Tara helps Jackson get comfortable with his brothers and Tara learns to trust Jackson with her secrets. Its a fun story but not deep and no bad guys or obstacles in the way.
I really loved Tara and I really liked Jackson, just as much as I loved Clay. This was a really fun story with the whole twin surprise angle. WTG! and kudos to the two authors of this book I totally loved it. As with the whole series this story is HOTTT!!!

Dirty Sexy Sinner is an incredibly sexy contemporary romance between two characters who have both lived tough lives for very different reasons and how they get a second chance at love without the emotional baggage of their pasts affecting them.
Jackson and Tara, who tell the book through dual points of view, have such a sizzling chemistry from the start that only continues to heat up as the book progresses (trust me, this book will leave you feeling all hot under the collar, especially with Jackson’s alpha persona and dirty talking!). Both characters have emotional scars from the past that impact on them today and shape who they are but the challenge for these two is to learn to open up and let each other in in order to fully embrace a happily ever after filled with love and happiness. Tara is a strong, independent woman who was the perfect match for Jackson. I loved the impact of secondary characters in developing these two further.
As always with Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde books, this is well written with a strong writing style, an easy flow, and steady-to-fast pace. This book definitely pulls at your heartstrings at times with it’s emotional undertones with some of the serious issues both have faced in their pasts. While the book, overall, had a great blend of romance and steamy scenes, the tension throughout adds a real depth to the story that will keep you intrigued from start to finish. For those who have read previous books, it was nice to re-visit the story with familiar faces but it can be read as a standalone with a HEA.
Overall, I would highly recommend this sexy, well written, contemporary romance.

Jackson and Tara, who tell the book through dual points of view, have such a sizzling chemistry from the start that only continues to heat up as the book progresses (trust me, this book will leave you feeling all hot under the collar, especially with Jackson’s alpha persona and dirty talking!).

holy batcave batman Jackson is one sexy beast of a man. He is also insanely sweet and honorable like his brothers. We see Jackson also as vulnerable. He has been through alot and all he wants is a family and love. He wants acceptance and to belong. Like Tara. Unlike Tara Jackson hides his heart and vulnerability behind his swagger and confidence. His confidence in himself. He is smart, sexy as sin and a good guy. He guards himself though and has lost alot. He is on a search for his brothers the Kincaids and hoping they will give him a chance.
Tara has a past that she fought to overcome but she doesn’t ever feel she deserves happiness and love. She is mired in guilt from her sins and doesn’t let it go. When she meets Jackson she begins to hope. Hope for forgiveness, love and new beginnings. He doesn’t judge her for her past and is open and honest with her. He shows her only kindness, love and patience as she does for him. Together they are awesome and she helps him stay strong in the face of reluctance from his brothers. Watching him crack their shells with the help of the feisty and sweet Tara was so much fun as was seeing the attraction unfold between tara and Jackson.
Brothers that are hard to crack but when he does he gets a amazing family and sense of belonging. This is the fun entertaining and sexy story of Jackson and Tara. How they met, fell in love, healed one another and found each other at a time when both were searching for more and acceptance for who they are. A sexy fun way to end the series and hopefully we will get to see more of them in the future in novellas to tell us how they are all doing.

Surprise! Clay has a twin brother! Jackson walks in at the Kincaid brothers bar and Tara is spellbound after finding out who he is. At first she thought he was Clay in a fancy suit, but once she got a good look at him she realized... my oh my, this fine specimen of man was not Clay. Another surprise! Talk about a thunderbolt hitting two humans at once! They are both hit hard and the attraction is off the charts.
Clay, Mason and Levi are in shock. Jackson's story is pretty unbelievable, but let's face it, he is the exact copy of Clay so there is definitely the same DNA there.
This story is about finding the truth about your roots, seeking the love of family, and the undeniable need to create a new family where you are nurtured, loved, and finally at home. Loved it! These guys are all SUPER hot and adorable in spite of their rough exteriors. They all share the protective impulse and the blatantly loving impulse to adore their mates.

Fair warning, don't read this review if you haven't read the previous books. It may be a little spoiler-ish.
Jackson Stone is the long-lost twin of Clay. He finds out the truth and looks his brothers up, arriving to Clay's bar. There he meets Tara, Clay's employee and they hit it off from the start.
But it's not all that easy with the Kincaid brothers. They're skeptical, they're hesitant - due to the lives they've led, you can't really blame them - but my heart still broke for Jackson. It ached for him. I wanted to pull him into my bosom and never let go.
But I love how Tara stands up to the guys and knocks them on their a**es. Atta girl!
This one's shorter than the previous books, so things happen a little faster but I still loved it.
"Do you want to sin with me, Tara?"
Well, don't mind if I do! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. 4 stars.

The surprise forth book in the series features one hot, dirty talking man! Jackson Stone is the Kincaid's oldest brother's twin - which none of them knew about. They may have grown up in complete opposite environments, but they have more in common than they think. The story mainly focuses on Jackson's relationship with Tara, the bartender at his brother's bar, but I wish it would have had more interaction between Jackson and his brothers. That is the only reason it wasn't a 5 star read for me. Jackson and Tara fall in lust at first sight, but quickly moves into love. They are both strong characters with great chemistry that burned up the pages of my Kindle. This book can be read as a standalone, but I recommend all of the books in the series since I loved them all.

Imagine growing up not knowing why your father resented you yet doted on a younger brother. Fast forward 30 years & you are not only told you were adopted illegally but have biological brothers....and one of them is your twin.
Jackson Stone finds his long lost family. The Kincaid brothers. They know it's highly possible Jackson's story is credible as their birth mother was an unreliable druggie and the fact that Jackson & Clay share the same face. But the boys aren't won over.
It takes Tara Kent, Clays's bar manager, to bring the brothers together after they quickly fall for each other.
Tara's had her own past to overcome. She messed around in prescription drugs as a teen and after her boyfriend died, she had to over come her addiction as well as her own guilt: alone. Her parents had abandoned her and didn't support her through her recovery.
It's gonna take a leap of faith for Jackson and Tara to express just how much they mean to each other.

Dirty Sexy Sinner, is the fourth title in the Dirty Sexy Series!
Although it can be read as a standalone, I would recommend reading the previous titles as the characters who are central to the story line of the previous books play a pivotal role in this book and you can understand their actions and attitudes towards Jackson.
Tara and Jackson are a completely endearing pair of characters. They are like-able, believable and both have pasts that haunt them for different reasons. They both struggle with trusting others.
Jackson likes to be in charge, in the bedroom and it makes for some seriously hot and steamy loves scenes between this hero and heroine.
I've enjoyed each book in the Dirty Sexy series, but I'd have to say Dirty Sexy Sinner was my favorite. It's sad to see the end of the entertaining and enigmatic Kincaid brothers.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is now my official FAVORITE in the series! More tender, more heart-stopingly sexy and definitely a bit more kinkier, this romance had me sighing out loud and making me warm all over. I fell in in love all over again with Clay Mason and Levi while falling hard for Jackson.
I loved how things were put together with this story. I felt myself falling head over heels for this romance. It was sweet and tender in all the right places and wicked and HOT in others. The Dirty Sexy Series is a favorite of mine and I sure will miss these guys, but I won't hesitate to read these stories again and again because they are THAT good!
Dirty Sexy Sinner gets a DELICIOUS FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I absolutely LOVED Jackson and this particular story in the Dirt Sexy Series because of all the tender moments and the juicy ones. AN ABSOLUTE TREASURE!

The conclusion to the Dirty Sexy series! When this book was announced I was excited because I loved the first books and didn't want the series to end at 3. I also love Tara and am glad she got her book. Well Carly and Erika delivered!
Tara has worked at the bar and was one of Clay's rescues. She has a difficult past that she is trying to move forward from.
Jackson Stone is a successful architect who discovers a shocking secret and is seeking family.
Sparks fly immediately when Tara and Jackson meet. There was immediate attraction, but I like how their relationship develops. I also liked how Tara was not afraid to tell the Kincaid brothers how she truly felt about a few things!
Jackson and Tara are strong people who haven't had it easy and I enjoyed watching them together

Yeay for another book in the Dirty Sexy series! Jackson was a surprise additional brother and I was shocked at the end of the last book. Carly and Erika didn't disappoint me in this book. It was well worth the wait. I loved this story! Tara and Jackson are so sweet together and have so much in common, even though they had never met. Jackson's relationship with his brothers progressed nicely too, leaving me feeling like my own family just grew a little bit. 5 Stars for the end of this amazing series! I'm ready for the next one!

Awww, HOT DAMN!!!
Love that Jackson seems to be the dirtier of the group (not giving away any spoilers)..... his way with words is HOT. He's got demons that have created a strong shell with a gooey center. I love that he isn't this macho alpha male through and through.....he shows his gooey center and makes no apologies for it.
Tara, while insecure can give as good as she gets, and keeps Jackson on his toes.
Put these two together and you are treated to a story about how 2 souls who come with baggage can make a healthy loving relationship.
*be prepared to ask your husband/boyfriend/significant other to help you recreate those "sins" Jackson talks about*

Oh WOWWW!!! Hands down, DIRTY SEXY SINNER is one of the hottest books I have read by Carly Phillips (my first time reading this co written series). Jackson Stone is absolutely delicious with his sinning mouth and drop dead gorgeous face!! I enjoyed the instant attraction between Jackson and Tara and man oh man, this couple ignited in the bedroom!! That being said, I felt that despite the hotness, the story felt underdeveloped - I would have liked to see more reconciliation between Jackson and his brothers (rather than have it happen off page), and being the romantic that I am, I would have enjoyed seeing more development in Jackson and Tara's romance. I felt like the ending was rushed!

I have absolutely loved the Dirty Sexy series and this one is no exception. Jackson and Tara's connection was instant and undeniable. They both have backgrounds that were rougher than most yet they are both able to overcome their emotional baggage and open themselves up to each other and the love that they grow to share. Carly truly does an amazing job of creating characters that have flaws and seem real to the reader. Our hero and heroine in this story are not perfect cookie cutter people with no flaws who magically fall in love. They are real and flawed and still absolutely perfect. If you are looking for a great read I highly recommend the whole Dirty Sexy series. Each book is even better than the last!

I was given this book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
4.5 stars!
This was my first experience with writing by the dynamic duo of Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde, and wow! It was steaming hot! Now if only I could meet a real life Jackson Stone...
Jackson recently found his long lost brothers and he's on a mission to meet them, only one little wrinkle in the plan...they don't know he exists. So he starts out by meeting Ms. Tara Kent, bartender extraordinaire, and there's something about her that catches his attention and draws him in.
Things look up when Tara's attention is caught by Jackson as well. If only things were going as smoothly with his brothers...
This book works well as a standalone, although I have added the first books to my "to read" list. Tara is a strong woman with a past that she has overcome and she's found the family of her heart. Jackson is a successful man with his sights on Tara as he attempts to connect with the brothers that were stolen from him. The story drew me in until the end and There were multiple times when I had to pause and fan myself along the way.

If you have been following these books you would remember the Kincaid brothers. Each of the books can be read as standalone, but you might want to read Levi's book before reading Dirty Sexy Sinner. In Levi's book is where we find the bombshell that they have another brother. What, what, WHAT! We find Jackson Stone, and he happens to be Clay's twin brother. So, the brothers aren't sure what to think about him. Basically all he wants to do is connect with someone that is a blood relative. Fortunately he finds an ally in Tara, Clay's manager of the bar.
Anyway, these two hit it off and sparks fly with them. However, she has three protective brothers in the Kincaid group and they aren't sure they can trust their new brother. The whole new brother was a bombshell to me and I wonder where they got this idea. Or if they wanted to someone for Tara. Who knows. It might seem a little farfetched, but how their mother was it wouldn't put it pass her. So, if you are curious on what kind of sinner Jackson is, he's definitely a dirty talker. If you are in need of a dirty talker, Jackson might be your man.

Another winner in this final installment of the Dirty Sexy series. Jackson Stone walks into Kincaid's Bar before opening and *BAM* meets Tara Kent. It was lust at first sight! Jackson is Clay's twin brother who was sold as a newborn and raised in a home where he never felt welcome after his mom died when he was 10. He has had something missing in his life and after his aunt finally told him about the illegal adoption it finally made sense. Hiring a PI to find his brothers was step one and meeting them was the obvious next step. Tara has her own secrets from her past she has spent the past 6 years working through. These two are PERFECT together. Jackson is a dirty talking, possessive and dominant lover and even if the brothers have a rough start, it is obvious Jackson and Tara are meant for each other. Lots of dirty sexy fun, dirty sexy talk, and dirty sexy loving!
This could be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading the entire series since each Kincaid brother cannot be denied as needing their own book to explore all the dirty sexy goodness!
I highly recommend this series!!!!

Just when you thought that the Kincaid brothers couldn’t get any hotter, they go and get one more! And he’s a twin at that! Jackson Stone, the newest Kincaid brother in this final installment of the Dirty Sexy series, definitely delivers the goods. Jackson is has a dirty mouth, a sexy swagger, and is sinfully delicious. Tara doesn’t have a chance of resisting him, even from the first hello.
Dirty Sexy Sinner was definitely the hottest book in the series. The chemistry between Jackson and Tara was off the charts!! But it was also a somewhat emotional book about healing from your past and finding your own family in more ways than one. Although Tara and Jackson have very different backgrounds, they both have endured hurts and are both in some sense searching for validation, acceptance and love. Once I started this book, I really couldn’t put it down.
Dirty Sexy Sinner was also a wonderful finale to the series, and it was great seeing how all of the brothers’ lives have evolved. It was also great getting a quick glimpse of Wes, who will be the first hero for the upcoming Book Boyfriend Series coming next year. Can’t wait!

Every book in this series has impressed me and left me on a book high, and this instalment is no exception. I’ve always hoped for a book for Tara, so was thrilled she finally got to tell us her story. And Jackson, well swoon, I mean what’s not to love, he’s Clay’s twin, so hot, broody and dominant, but also his story pulls at the heartstrings, the long lost brother trying to connect with his family, and with a not so perfect childhood of his own.
This duo write incredible stories, and hotter than sin love scenes. The writing is engaging, the characters are well developed and you see them grow throughout the book. I loved that this story predominantly focused on Tara and Jackson; yes we see snippets of the Kincaid brothers and their significant others, but this is all about Tara and Jackson and the connection they make to one another, and it really does unfold beautifully.
Overall another well-deserved 5 stars for this unstoppable duo.

This series is so HOT, sexy, and dirty of course. I can't ever put the books down in this series, I just want to keep reading and devouring them. And this one didn't lack anything that others have either. It's an amazing addition/ending to this series, a series that I would re-read, and one that I highly recommend.
I love love LOVE the banter between all the characters. I love how the woman seem to even their OTT alpha males out and that makes the dynamic of their family/friendship so much better. This is something that has kept me reading, not only is it a steamy hot series but the characters are consistent and present all the way through, even when it isn't their book.
Jackson and Tara are perfect from the first moment, I'm so happy to see her happy now too. They have chemistry, their silly, they love hard, and they're passionate. I highly recommend this book but more so the entire series. Each book is so so easy to read, and I for sure you'll be swooning just as much as I was.

Dirty Sexy Sinner, is the fourth title in the Dirty Sexy Series!
Although it can be read as a standalone, I would recommend reading the previous titles as the characters who are central to the story line of the previous books play a pivotal role in this book and you can understand their actions and attitudes towards Jackson.
Tara and Jackson are a completely endearing pair of characters. They are like-able, believable and both have pasts that haunt them for different reasons. They both struggle with trusting others.
Jackson likes to be in charge, in the bedroom and it makes for some seriously hot and steamy loves scenes between this hero and heroine.
I've enjoyed each book in the Dirty Sexy series, but I'd have to say Dirty Sexy Sinner was my favorite. It's sad to see the end of the entertaining and enigmatic Kincaid brothers.

Dirty Sexy Sinner is now my official FAVORITE in the series! More tender, more heart-stopingly sexy and definitely a bit more kinkier, this romance had me sighing out loud and making me warm all over. I fell in in love all over again with Clay Mason and Levi while falling hard for Jackson.
I loved how things were put together with this story. I felt myself falling head over heels for this romance. It was sweet and tender in all the right places and wicked and HOT in others. The Dirty Sexy Series is a favorite of mine and I sure will miss these guys, but I won't hesitate to read these stories again and again because they are THAT good!
Dirty Sexy Sinner gets a DELICIOUS FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I absolutely LOVED Jackson and this particular story in the Dirt Sexy Series because of all the tender moments and the juicy ones. AN ABSOLUTE TREASURE!

The fourth Kincaid brother… who didn’t even know he was a Kincaid. What an AMAZING story! When Jackson found out about his illegal adoption, he was determined to tell his brothers of his existence. What he wasn’t planning on was meeting Tara when he walked into Clay’s bar.
The final story of the Kincaid Brothers is filled with family, love and fitting in, when you never fit in before in your life. It was a rocky start as the brothers found out that Jackson was in fact Clay’s missing twin, but once the women in their lives had some say, it all turns out in the end.
This series was totally awesome. This book can be read as a stand-alone, but I highly suggest that you read them all, you will not be disappointed. The Kincaid brothers will not let you down.

After reading the epilogue in Dirty Sexy Cuffed I wanted to get my hands on Dirty Sexy Sinner right then and there. I mean after all the the Kincaid brothers, and their women, had been through the appearance of a twin was a total WTF?!? So while the wait was excruciating it was sooo worth it! Or should I say Jackson, and Tara, were sooo worth it!
I seriously adored both Jackson and Tara. Adored! Jackson is an irresistible combination of vulnerable and decadently wicked alpha male. Your heart will melt for him and your panties won’t be far behind. He exudes confidence, compassion and honesty. His past has wounded him, but he does his best to move past them when they rear their ugly heads. Tara has moxie galore. She’s sassy and has a huge heart. She isn’t afraid to speak her mind and gives as good as she gets. The sins of her past still haunt her, but she’s grown from it and become the woman she was meant to be.
Watching their relationship grow and evolve was so much fun. I love that they acted like adults. They admitted they were attracted to each other and went for it. Their flirty bantering had me grinning and I liked how they took the time to get to know each other. Did they lay all of their secrets out on the table right away? No, but they got there in good time. The sexual chemistry was five alarm hot! (Have your BOB or an arctic temperature bath ready while you read this one!) And I liked the fact that there wasn’t a ton of angsty drama going on between them and what was there was more because of external situations than anything really going on between Jackson and Tara.
I liked how the whole “Surprise! I’m your twin” situation was handled. It was realistic and though I got a little pissed at Clay, Mason and Levi at one point, it totally fit with how they would deal with something like this. I’m sad that this is the last book in the series, though holy hell what a way to go, but the spin off looks like it’ll be a fun ride and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!
