Rachel Van Dyken did a great job of keeping me interested throughout this book. It had quite a few twists and turns that kept it quite entertaining. There were quite a few funny moments and I found myself quite satisfied with the whole book.

First up I was really excited about this book, but I am noping out on 25%. I just feel that the whole business from Blaire and her friend is just nothing if she can't be professional about it. I mean really, your ex is the one you need to stalk/spy on/get evidence on, and instead of backing out as you SHOULD, you go for it. I would have rather seen her back out and just pick up another case.

Then there is the whole Colin > Blaire >< Jessie. I am SO NOT IN THE MOOD for a love triangle.

Plus I really can't handle a guy who is married, I don't give a damned fig that it is a sham, a fake one. You ARE STILL MARRIED. YOU DON"T CHEAT. You don't flirt with other girls. You don't. Sorry, but this just pisses me off. Oh, I find Blaire, my love .*immediately goes to flirt and doesn't care about his wife*. :|

So yeah, fun idea, and I was quite curious, but I am not happy.

This is the first book on the new series by RVD.
As the blurb explains this is about catching cheaters.
Jessie, Blaire and Collin are the three POV in this story.
Jessie and Blaire has a relationship before he left her behind to pursue his career, Collin is Jessie's friend who is very interested in Blaire.
This book is very funny and I really laughed through lots of it.
I did find Jessie a bit annoying, I wanted them to have a showdown about the original breakup and the effect his moving on had inherited but that never really happened. He was also such a smuck with his wife/ex-wife I found him annoying but I this book is his journey into realising that about himself.
Ilsa was a secondary characters, business partner to Blaire and she was really funny.

Good story! I receive a ARC from Netgalley for a honest review.
I love Mrs. Van Dyken writing and this one is not an exeption. I'm not fan of the love triangles but understand why Blaire make the choices she make. I'm team Jessie, Colin is too inmatured, like a college boy at 29. I enjoy reading this story and recommended it.
Waiting for the next chapter. WINTER IS COMING...., Hilarious!

Blaire has compared all men in her life, including her now ex-husband to her first love, Jessie Beckett. Jessie left Blaire behind to pursue his NFL career and she has never really gotten over that. Jessie, for his part, is stunned to see Blaire again and also finds himself playing the "what if" game. Blaire is part of a company that are PI's who expose cheating spouses, etc. and plays their final confrontations on Facebook Live so that the cheater lives with the fallout of having been caught.

Jessie's life isn't all that it is cracked up to be. From the outside it looks perfect, but it is all a rouse that is put on by his wife. He is separated from his wife and it takes a while to find out why they are on out outs.

Jessie's wife contracts Dirty Exes saying she wants to catch Jessie cheating. Blaire is torn between wanting Jessie to live up to her unrealistic expectations of him being as perfect as he was in her fantasies all of these years, and doing her job. Jessie seems to be torn about his guilt in texting her. His wife was so interested in public appearances that she came across as shallow and self-absorbed throughout this book.

An unexpected wrench was thrown into Blaire's plans when Jessie's best friend, Colin, throws himself into her path and doesn't take no for an answer. He was quite the character and I loved how he brought Blaire out of her shell. He was an unexpected breath of fresh air and I loved how the story played out.

Rachel Van Dyken did a great job of keeping me interested throughout this book. It had quite a few twists and turns that kept it quite entertaining. There were quite a few funny moments and I found myself quite satisfied with the whole book. If you have liked her other works, this one was just as good. I liked the start to this series and can't wait to read the next installment.

I received an ARC from NetGalley for my honest review.

"In that moment, I wondered. What. If. Two very dangerous words. Two horrible words. Words that should never be put together in any way, shape, or form."

"He kissed me tenderly, he kissed me like he wanted to do nothing more than taste me for the next few hours and memorize every inch of my body."

"I was keeping him. End of story."

Dirty Exes was such a fun and unexpected read. I mean, I just loved the heck out of this book. From laugh out loud moments to crazy antics to a swoon worthy romance that just knocks you off your feet, this book is easily one of my favorite books that I've read so far this year. 

Dirty Exes is smartly written and will suck you in from the very first page. The plot is fun and entertaining. The characters will captivate you and suck you in to their stories. I fell in love with Blaire from the moment I met her. Life had dealt her some pretty craptastic cards when it came to love, and she wasn't in the market at all. She loved catching cheaters and serving their spouses or significant others justice and the closure they need. Closure...that is the one thing Blaire never got. She has a lot of what if's in her life and it looks like fate is about to drop into her life and turn it totally upside down....

Dirty Exes took me on one heck of a ride. It wasn't anything like I expected. It knocked my socks off and had me laughing in stitches. I couldn't get enough of this story and the characters. It was the perfect book to spend my afternoon getting lost in. This book had it all: smart writing, witty banter, fun characters, light angst, just the right amount of drama, and some seriously sweet moments. I may have found myself swooning over a particular character a time or two, but I'm not going to tell you which one. You're just going to have to pick up this read for yourself and see which character won over my heart.....

A truly fantastic read. I can't wait to read more from this series!

This was a great and light, but definitely steamy romance read. I enjoyed this book a lot and had a few laughs along the way. I definitely enjoyed Blaire, Isla, Colin, Jessie and Ian's characters. I wished Ian had more of a role in this book because I enjoyed the conversations between him and Blaire. I felt their brother and sister bond. I disliked Vanessa, Jason and Olivia from the very beginning but those three got what they deserved in the end. Blaire and Jessie had spent time together in the past, but I was glad that she chose to be with the one person I wanted her with. I was definitely rooting for them because the chemistry, attraction and banter between them was everything and I felt their connection and it was everything. Jessie was a nice character and let Vanessa get away with entirely too much; being nice to someone is not always the best thing and he learned the hard way. I absolutely loved Isla, she was a trip and I hope she gets her story with who I thought was a good fit for her. This was a great read that will leave you with a smile on your face and I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
