A sexy, suspenseful standalone...He was passion and the reason I breathed. I loved him, trusted him when life taught me to trust no one. He was nothing I thought he was. He wasn't even the man he said he was. He was dangerous. Everyone told me to hide, to run, but now he's back. He came for me and I'm not running at all. Because he's still the man that gave me a reason to breathe and if that's dangerous, that's a risk I will have to take.Ashley's story - you met her in Dirty Rich Cinderella Story, and now she's ready to tell her story. You do not need to read any book prior to this one.

Each time I pick up a Lisa Renee Jones book I know that I am going to get a well written entertaining story. She has never, not once failed to impress me with her mad storytelling skills. Dirty Rich Secrets is no exception to that. Loved the chemistry and the passion between Ashley and Noah/Aaron. Their interaction with one another just made me fall in love with them. Wonderfull storyline and very well crafted as always, this was another winner for me. Now, I eagerly await the full story of Savage and wonder what this amazing author has in store for him. ❤️
I listened to the Audible edition, Erin Mallon and Joe Arden are wonderful narrators and voice performers. They bring the characters to life and give them personality and attitude.
This is an action filled romance that kept me not only on the edge of my seat due to the danger that lurked around every corner, but by the relationship that was once broken and now must be repaired between Ashley and Aaron.
Throughout the highs and lows of this hero and heroine’s relationship, this story moves at warped speed. As they are fighting to find safety and discover who the bad guy is, they must face their own trust issues. Despite their own fears and insecurities, the chemistry between Ashley and Aaron is electric. There is no doubt they belong together, but how they find a way to make it work is the tricky part.
Loved everything about this series. This had plenty of Walker Security and a delicious look at Savage to only add to my overall enjoyment.

What a beautiful twist and turns of Noah/Aaron with Ashley. Lisa done amazing job with writing these characters. Along with some characters that brought back memories. You will see a lot of emotions that comes along with great chemistry and trust that goes along way. I recommend reading this joy without a doubt.
Audiobook Review: I really enjoyed this suspenseful romance. This is kind of a second chance romance since Aaron/Noah was forced to leave Ashley and she was told inaccurate information about him and was forced into witness protection. But he was determined to win her back and try to get past all of the lies he was forced to tell for his job. He has to work extra hard to earn her trust back and it is no easy task. These two had such an intense and passionate love that nothing would stop them from being together.
I do wish the book was a bit longer and that we got more from Aaron's POV (mainly because I love Joe Arden as a narrator and would always love more of him). The ending seemed a bit rushed and finalized really quickly.
I absolutely love Joe Arden and Erin Mallon's narrations. I always think they do a fantastic job. Two of my favorite narrators.
In Dirty Rich Secrets, Ashley has been relocated with a new identity (Sandy) and job having left behind everything when she is told that the man she was going to marry is a traitor. Noah or is it really Aaron had been framed and he had stayed away to protect her until he could clear his name. Part of the determination to clear his name is the underlying fear that Ashley will never believe the truth without the proof. When he realizes that the only one who can keep her safe is himself he returns. And the fireworks blow!
I have yet to pick up a book by author Lisa Renee Jones that has not totally captured my full attention. She has a way with words that just seem to glue you to the pages. Her characters are intriguing and ones you find yourself rooting for. There are a number of twists and turns and a tantalizing mystery that might have you holding your breath in anticipation. As well as fanning yourself as this couple renews their love for one another in the well written steamy moments, Ms. Jones is known to produce.
I felt bad for the both of them as the story unfolds and the truth gets finally set free, that they had to go through this because of greed and revenge.
Also some of the fun moments include the Walker Security team members which of course gives us more of fan favorite Savage.
The author did a great job of setting Ashley's story up in the Cinderella books that I just could not wait for her story! I'm sad to say it wasn't what I hoped. First off, there was no reason to make this three parts. There were definitely parts that felt like filler, and it seemed that they had some of the same conversations multiples times. As a result, the pacing felt off, and the "cliffhanger" before part 2 was completely ridiculous. We only learned the details of their meeting/initial relationship through flashbacks, which also impacted the pacing. The ending felt so anti-climactic and odd given everything leading up to it.
All of that said, the author does do a great job of crafting characters that you truly care about, and the plot was interesting even if it could have been executed better.
I'm a lover of all things mafia Cia Seals whatever and I was lost and found in this book 📙 soooo well written so twisty so dangerous so sexy so funny it's all the things you want and need in a good read 📖 please you just have to get into this series all stand alone but all tied up together you won't want to stop at just one it's been a true pleasure stepping into Lisa Renee Jones world I know I'll never leave
Lisa had me right from the beginning!! I loved Ashley’s character from Dirty Rich Cinderella Story and she certainly didn’t disappoint in her own book. I felt all her emotions on her roller coaster of a journey with Noah. The burn of their chemistry and the intensity of running for your life. This fast paced thriller kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through. Great read!!
I absolutely LOVED this book. I loved getting to hear how Ashley met her man, what caused things in the prior book and finally just getting to see what the secrets were. I won't go into detail but I loved it all. What an amazing book! It was my favorite of the series which I'm sure is weird but I just loved this book so much!
This book was so amazing I couldn't stop reading it. Lisa Renee Jones has done it again. I wanted to hear Ashley's story for so long and this did not disappoint. I love how alpha male possessive and protective Noah/Aaron is. This is a story you don't want to pass up.
I have really enjoyed reading this book as a side line to the series. Ashley was engaged to a man that turned out to be a traitor, or so she was told. In this book it picks up a few months later where she discovers the truth. Worth a read
This story had me from the first page. So much action and drama. It was also a great love story. Two people who were completely different find lucky amid the turmoil. Great read!
When you become addicted to Lisa Renee Jones' writing you expect a certain tone. This book is different in the sense it feels darker and more intense. At the same time it gives you everything you would expect from a Lisa Renee Jones book! This is a great addition to the "Dirty Rich" series. This story is thrilling, romantic, erotic, adventurous and entertaining. I would read it again and I am so thrilled to share it with others!
This was a very confusing book. I felt like I was missing something from the beginning all the way till the end. There was a lot going on and then flashbacks. This is the first book by Lisa Renee Jones that I have rated low, I have enjoyed the other stories I have read by her, this one was super confusing. I could not relate or feel anything for either of the characters.
Loved this story. Bellow is my review of each book in this series. Part One OMG! Right from the beginning you get the sense that this is going to be an awesome read. Ashley, whom we met from Dirty Rich Cinderella where she worked for Cole Brooks and soon had to leave without an explanation as to why now has her own story. And what a story it is already turning out to be. Ashley has been relocated and given another identity and job. She has had to leave everything behind and on top of everything she has been told the man she was going to marry is a CIA agent who has been labeled a traitor. Noah, the man she fell in love with was planning on leaving the CIA and revealing to Ashley who he really is and why he had to hide what he did. Turns out though before he had a chance to he finds out he has been set up and in order to keep Ashley safe she has been relocated. Noah has stayed away in order to keep her safe but now it seems in order to keep on doing that he has to do it himself. Ashley is still trying to get over what has happened in her life and Noah as well. Now the two are running and trying to keep safe. Noah is determined to find out who set him up and prove to Ashley what happened and that he truly loves her and did not lie to her about his feelings for her. This is a fast paced read full of suspense, mystery and intrigue. The chemistry and passion between them is still there. This first part is proving to be a great start to what will be one of the top "Dirty Rich" stories by Ms Jones. I can not wait to see what happpens next.
Part 2 I absolutely loved this next book in the series. We learn who the man is in the shower where book one left off and then its a roller coaster of a ride to stay ahead of the danger Ashley and Aaron are up against. They go back to New York to find out more about who is after them and to enlist the help of the Walker Security team. While all this is going on Ashley and Aaron(Noah) rekindle their love and Ashley begins to learn that Aaron has stayed away to keep her safe and that he has never stopped loving her. Aaron informs Ashley that he is going to teach her how to always be on alert of everything around her and together they are going to get to the bottom of what happened and find the people responsible. On top of what is going on Ashley has to deal with Smith the man first assigned to keep her safe when she first went into hiding. Seems Smith has feelings for Ashley and thinks Aaron is no good for her even though Ashley has made it quite clear that Aaron is the only man for her. Aaron knows exactly how Smith feels about him and this just adds to the story and makes the book that much more enjoyable to read. A little jealousy and possessiveness from the main character makes for a great read. The chemistry between Ashley and Aaron gets stronger as the connection and love strengthens their bond. I am looking forward to the final part of their story. I can not wait to see how they overcome all the obstacles in the way to their HEA!
Part 3 This final part of Aaron and Ashley's story was worth the wait and once again it was packed full of everything you love in a book by Ms Jones. There was action and suspense all the way to the end along with an intense connection between Aaron and Ashley. They were able to both come to an understanding of who each of them was and accept it unconditionally. The drama of what they have gone through as well as what they went through on this final part was written so well. It kept me at the edge of my seat. I devoured this book in just a few hours and loved it. I enjoyed revisiting with the Walker Brothers and their team and getting a bit more of a sneak peak into who Savage may be. Wonderful ending to an amazing story!
OMG, WOW what an amazing read. I loved this book from the moment that I started reading and could not put it down no matter what was going on elsewhere.
It moves along at the perfect reading pace which makes it an enjoyable read as you are not getting stuck between paragraphs or chapters. The characters are amazing and you cannot help but fall in love with them. No matter what you want to see them overcome whatever may get in there way.
I cannot wait to read Book 2 and see what happens next. This book left me on the edge of my seat and I am extremly impatient for the next.
This has to be read there is no doubt about it.
Part 2
Oh wow, it was definitly worth waiting for. It blew me away from the very first word all the way to the very end.
It moves along at an amazing pace, which is perfect for reading. You will fall in love with the characters and you need to know more about them. No matter what you want to see them overcome everything that may be in their way. These characters are so amazing that you feel as though you know them personally.
This book has to be read, and I cannot wait to read what happens in book 3. You will not be sorry that you read this and book 1 as well.
Loved it.
Part 3
Wow oh Wow.
This book blew me away. Everything about it was amazing. The first 2 books were awesome, this one was even better. I could not put it down, no matter what was going on, I had to continue reading.
This book needs to be read. The story is great and it is nice getting to know the characters even better. The characters you cannot help but fall in love with.
Lisa Renee Jones does not let you down. This book needs to be on your TBR list. You will not be sorry that you did so.
This is an amazing collection, you will not be sorry that you read this.
Worth more than 5 stars. Lisa tells stories that make you ask yourself " how much is fact and how much is fiction". Very believable corruption in so called Law & Order organisations.
