GETTING DIRTY BOOK ONE
AMAZON US / AMAZON UK

SYNOPSIS
Three. This is my number. It’s the exact sum of reasons I continue to go on.
One: To strengthen my body. Make it strong. Make it a machine. Make it so that what happened before can never, ever, happen again.
Two: To help others find their own strength so that what happened to me, what happened to my Olivia, doesn’t happen to them.
And three: My favorite—to find the bastards that took my life away and make them pay for what they did.
This is what my life is now. A dead man, inside a scarred body, living only for revenge.
*This is part one in a five part novella serial.
**Due to sexual situations and violence, this series is recommended for 18+.

TALKING DIRTY BOOK THREE
AMAZON US / AMAZON UK

SYNOPSIS
I had no idea when I met Linken Elliot that he would be capable of doing this to me.
I was perfectly unhappy, living my miserable existence before he came along. I was fine humping strange men’s faces in dirty bar bathrooms. I was comfortable living like a hermit and drinking myself into oblivion.
I. Was. Fine.
Now I want things. I want him.

FIGHTING DIRTY BOOK FOUR

SYNOPSIS
I wake up to a warm body draped along my side. I smile as the foreign feeling of happiness radiates in my chest.
Everything comes rushing back as Rocky’s scent fills my senses.
Not Olivia’s.
My happiness bursts like a broken dam. Not because Olivia isn’t here. But because as I realized it was Rocky’s body against me, I still felt satisfied. Because I didn’t feel the misery of Livie’s loss.
Because all I can feel now is shame. My first instinct wasn’t to miss Liv. It was to enjoy Rocky.
Link and Rocky’s story continues in this fourth installment of the Dirty novella series.

4.5 Star Series overall rating

“Time….I just need time.”

Well, what can we say other than bloody hell, we weren’t mentally prepared for this series! Picking up book one we didn’t leave our reading chair till we’d flown through every instalment available, it was impossible, it was unavoidable.

‘I should feel justified. Instead I feel vacant.’

The Dirty series was harrowing, it was heart-breaking and it was incredibly intense and addictive. Fortunately we only had to wait one day for the fifth and final book and we devoured it the second we saw it was live.

‘This agony is consuming me. I’ve lost everything. I have nothing. Nothing to live for. Nothing to fight for.’

We can’t and won’t say anything that may spoil this story, it would be an injustice to the Author, YOU the reader as well as to the characters Link and Rocky. Both characters clawed their way into our hearts with their dramatic and vengeful story. We left them with a heavy breath, an exhausted emotional mind and a bleeding heart. But truly we aren’t ready to leave them, not really. Not at all, such is the impression they left on our souls.

Do you believe in an eye for an eye? Do you believe in karma? Do you believe in vengeance spurred on by love? Do you believe in love as a saviour?

‘She’s always here…’

The Dirty series will have you questioning everyone and everything. It will shock you, make you weep uncontrollably, make you crave justice and vindication. It will make you fall in love with love as a saviour. It will make you fall in love with a broken yet inspirational man named Link and a damaged yet incredibly strong girl named Rocky.

This series is a MUST read. Cheryl McIntyre manages to convey every emotion possible, write characters with such depth and connection as well as give the reader an intensely powerful story. This, in short is a hard hitting powerful serial that would rival any full sized novel or series! It was bloody brilliant and we are in awe! This Author nailed it!

‘Maybe it’s just him. His strength. His pain. His passion. His ferocity. His protectiveness.’

Since reading we have read that a final novella/epilogue is in the works which is the only thing we thought was missing for us to feel fully satisfied. We just wanted that final important step to ease and mend our bleeding hearts and to feel ready to leave Link and Rocky.

“Scars like that are universal. We earn them differently, we wear them differently, but we all carry them the same.”
