    About this ebook

    When three besties meet three hot guys in Vegas anything can—and does—happen. Book one of the New York Times bestselling Wild Seasons series from the author of the Beautiful series.

    One-night stands are supposed to be with someone convenient, or wickedly persuasive, or regrettable. They aren’t supposed to be with someone like him.

    But after a crazy Vegas weekend celebrating her college graduation—and terrified of the future path she knows is a cop-out—Mia Holland makes the wildest decision of her life: follow Ansel Guillaume—her sweet, filthy fling—to France for the summer and just...play.

    When feelings begin to develop behind the provocative roles they take on, and their temporary masquerade adventures begin to feel real, Mia will have to decide if she belongs in the life she left because it was all wrong, or in the strange new one that seems worlds away.

      I don't typically fall for French guys, but Christina & Lauren have a way with making ANY guy a heartthrob! Loved Ansel and can't wait to hear about Finn!

      Mia and her friends go to Vegas to celebrate their college graduation. They get drunk and married, but while friends get annulments before leaving Vegas, Mia stays married to Ansel and returns to Paris with him for the summer before she is scheduled to go to graduate school. I loved this book! With this title I expected something totally different. While there is a lot of hot sex, this book is more about Mia growing up and deciding what is best for her and what to do to get it. It is also about Ansel growing up. I liked how they both grow up and grow together. They are great together. Ansel is my new book boyfriend. Loved him. This is a fantastic read and I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

      I have not read the Beautiful Bastard series yet, so this is my first book from these lovely ladies, and Wow. I loved it.

      Mia needs to find herself and she finds it in a stranger while in Vegas. The chemistry between Ansel and Mia is tangible thru the pages.

      I just loved their story and couldn't put it down. I cant wait for more in this series. And I'll also be getting the Beautiful Bastard started while I wait.



      I won this book in a goodreads give away
    • 4/5
      I liked that this had such a different flavor than the Beautiful Bastard series. It was refreshing and made the reading more interesting. Mia and Ansel met just like any other couple, but that is about it to their relationship that is normal. They jump through some much steps and you just can't help but get a little afraid of what that is going to bring them in their future together.

      The characters were all so very likable and easy to identify with. The thing that I didn't like were the last three chapters. Seemed a little too rushed for me. Other than that, amazing read!
    • 4/5
      Erotica from the duo known collectively as "Christina Lauren," this novel felt different in that it doesn't have the alternating male and female POVs. The story features a Vegas wedding that the couple tries to make work, at least for a summer in Paris; Explicit, but not kinky

      Loved it! I just wanted to crawl inside this book and live there! Ansel is the definition of swoon worthy. The title is perfect. So good and extremely hot!

    • 4/5
      This book follows Mia, a recent college graduate who's going to business school but also doesn't want to. She and her friends have a celebratory weekend in Vegas where they meet three guys. One of the guys, Ansel Guillame, is immediately pulled to Mia and vice versa. After a night of debauchery, Mia and Ansel are married. And Ansel invites Mia to a summer in Paris with him before they annul the marriage.

      There is a lot of sex in this book lol. Much more than other Christina Lauren books. That's not a bad thing though; when you have a character as hot as Ansel, the more the better. I loved the (relatively) healthy relationship that Mia and Ansel had and the message of taking opportunities to do things you wouldn't otherwise/do what YOU want to do, not what others want you to do. It was a fun read and I look forward to the rest of the series.

    • 5/5
      Enjoyed Beautiful Bastards and subsequent books in that series. This was WAY better. Told in first person by Mia, the story and how she felt were completely engrossing - I stayed up to 3am to finish!
      Love that authors never translated French words that Ansel said that Mia didn't know the meaning as was true to experience.
      The bombshell was a bit... strange and late in story. I wish it was earlier so could spend more time dealing with resolution and get more info about it (tho recognize we only know what Mia knows).
      Looking forward to next book in this series.
    • 5/5
      I loved this book so much I read it in one sitting. The characters seemed real and easily identifiable. Dialogue was well thought out and the emotions rang true, a very well written story that I enjoyed. My only complaint was the title and cover. The main character, Ansel, was far from being a boy although I do get the sweet, filthy part. The cover is also misleading in that it doesn't really give a true feel for what the story is about - good marketing though, as I'm sure the cover and title sold lots of books.
    • 4/5
      I loved this. It was sweet and hot and had a real couple having real discussions. I really hate it when the "conflict" in a story comes about solely due to lack of communication. It was refreshing to have a couple talk through a problem rather than having one of them run away or make a ton of assumptions. How grown-up!
    • 4/5
      fun reward read for me. think I'll buy the rest of the series. caught this one on sale.

      To start off with, I think the storyline is fantastic! Who wouldn't travel to Paris on a whim for the summer?! The characters just make the story that much better. Mia seems so realistic with how she reacts to the many different situations presented to her. Ansel is a bit complex, yet very caring, and fun. It's hard to put the book down because you just can't get enough of these two, and you want to know what will happen in the end.

      Sweet Filthy Boy by Christina Lauren#1 Wild SeasonsAudio narrated by Shayna ThibodeauxMia Holland and her two best friends celebrate their college graduation by going to Vegas. What happens in Vegas...doesn't always stay there, especially when the three of them wake up married to strangers. Everyone is set to immediately get an annulment. Everyone, that is, except for Mia and her new husband, Ansel Guillaume. They both truly hit it off, spent hours talking before the liquor kicked in and they all headed to the wedding chapel. They know it was impulsive, but neither one are sure that it was a mistake.Mia is being pressured by her controlling father to go to business school and end up like him. He's a bully and completely overbearing. She has other dreams but is afraid to reach out for them. She decides to take a sabbatical from her normal life and take Ansel up on his offer to return to Paris with him for the summer. What they have to decide is if they should take the chance on more.I found Mia and Ansel a believable couple. I especially liked Ansel. He was a sweetheart, and even when he foibled, I rooted for him. Their chemistry was terrific. My one complaint was that this book focused mainly on their sex life and very little on plot. I liked these people a lot, though, and I'm interested in what happened between the other two couples.
