Dirty Like Me: A Hot Rockstar Romance (Dirty, Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 17,940 ratings

A full-steam, fake dating romance, featuring a charming, famous heartbreaker, a sweet “regular” girl, a salacious job offer, a ridiculous bet and way too many shared hotel beds.

A gorgeous rock star. An indecent proposal. How can a girl resist?

Struggling barista Katie Bloom doesn’t even know who Jesse Mayes is until she inadvertently wins the coveted role of his hot new girlfriend in his latest music video.
But by the time she’s in bed with him, she knows his reputation.

Love maker.
Heartbreaker.

Making out with a stranger in front of a camera crew isn’t how Katie imagined herself getting over a broken heart, but when Jesse touches her, sparks fly.
It's supposed to be fake but the chemistry is real, and before long, the steamy video is blazing up the charts.

Then Jesse makes Katie a tantalizing offer: act as his girlfriend for six weeks while he promotes his new album.
The only catch? Their sizzling make-out sessions will be for the cameras only.
That suits Katie just fine, since she’s not about to trust her heart to rock’s most legendary lover.
Her body, though? Maybe.

As it turns out, pretending to fall in love is incredibly sexy…
And falling in love for real, with a man she promised not to fall for?
Irresistible.

    In all actuality, this book was 3.5 stars for me. I am semi new to the rockstar boyfriend trope, and I think I need to warm up to it a little bit more. For the most part, I liked both Katie and Jesse, but at times their communication, or lack thereof, was frustrating.
    We meet Katie when she tumbles into her friend’s office, and she’s a hot mess between her dog and the weather. There, she locks eyes with Jesse, and his “people” take notice. She’s invited to star in his music video and their chemistry on-screen is off the charts. So, to keep his music and name at the forefront of fans’ minds, he convinces Katie to play the role of his girlfriend while on tour. And the rest is history.
    I think Diamond did a good job portraying the lifestyle of someone truly famous, but the constant talk about drinking and getting drunk was gratuitous. I get it; they party. But, I don’t need a play-by-play of every single cocktail and/or beer. It also felt off that Katie just jumped into the lifestyle so quickly. I’m sorry, but if you’re not a big drinker, you don’t become one in a matter of weeks. You would be so incredibly hungover!
    In any case, I was rooting for them to finally talk like adults and realize their feelings. If they both have to act semi childish to reach that point, I guess that is their trajectory. Not sure if I’ll continue with this series or not. I am intrigued by Jessa’s story, but can’t decide if it’s worth my time or not.

    Not your average rock star story. Jesse and Katie 's relationship develops from their awesome chemistry, but that elusive love and intimacy scares them both. The demons they both fight must be dealt with before they can dream of a future together.

    If you’re a fan of rockstar drama, this book delivers plenty of it. Jesse, a genuinely good guy, has endured significant personal losses that left him guarded and wary of love. Katie, still recovering from being left at the altar two years ago, isn’t any more open to vulnerability. Their shared fear of revealing their true feelings sets the stage for a complicated, slow-burn romance filled with emotional highs and lows.

    The story is relatable, and the premise is engaging, especially in the beginning, which offers a fun and intriguing setup. However, the narrative becomes bogged down with excessive internal monologues about the characters’ feelings—or lack thereof—which slows the pacing and detracts from the central romance. At times, this introspection leads the characters to make decisions that work against their best interests. For instance, Jesse clearly loves Katie but refuses to end the charade of their fake relationship to start a real one. Katie, meanwhile, walks away from Jesse mid-tour after hurtful but false media reports surface about her family, leaving him to complete his concert series alone.

    Some subplots feel unnecessary and out of place. One puzzling example is Katie meeting with Jesse’s ex-girlfriend and bandmate, Elle, as well as his sister, after the media scandal. These scenes don’t add much to the story and detract from the emotional core of the main relationship.

    While the book starts strong, the excessive focus on psychological analysis slows the momentum and distracts from the romance. That said, fans of slow-burn love stories and rockstar drama may find plenty to enjoy, especially if they’re drawn to flawed characters trying to find their way toward love.
