    About this audiobook

    I’m a saint. On paper.
    I have a stable job as a personal trainer. My side hustle involves taking people out on hikes and pushing them to their limits. I love my friends and family equally.

    Every now and again, I need the itch between my shoulder blades branded with scratch marks.

    I’m haunted by that phantom ache when Nina Williams walks into my life to hire me for a hiking contest. Killer, dimpled smile, potty mouth, sharp mind and a confidence that makes me want to beg.

    She doesn’t want to want me. Yet, with a past as complicated and dark as mine, we’re destined to cross every line she puts in place.

    If I were truly a good guy, I would have wished her luck and turned her away.

    But how can I? That nameless thing inside me that feeds on sex, adventure and the promise of redemption just got invited to play.

    Editor's Note

    Filthily sexy…

    Yes, it's a release in Dakota Gray’s “Filth” series, so it’s appropriately and filthily sexy. But it’s also a book about two damaged people taking a literal journey together, exploring their issues and finding a measure of healing. The protagonists are real, flawed characters that respect one another, no matter what their ultimate resolution as a pair might be (spoiler: this is a romance, so it's got a Happy For Now ending).

    Dakota Gray

    Dakota Gray is the author of the Filth series. She’s a longtime romance reader and she’s not ashamed to fangirl over heroes with dirty mouths, dirtier minds and a soft heart. Gray writes the heroes you shouldn’t take home to mom, sassy heroines and sigh-worthy happily ever afters.

      It was an OK story with decent narration. It is always the self doubt, lack of communication and self loathing that is a turn off for me.
    • 5/5
      This story characters were very real and had great dialogue!
      The reader/narrator was superb in how she enunciated the pronunciation and banter between the characters.
      I can’t wait for the next book …
      More from this author and this reader!
    • 5/5
      Sweet lovestory with some smug scenes and a little drama but not too much.
      TWhat I like about it, is that it's for adults...
