Dirty
By R.L. Kenderson
Contemporary Romance
Date Published: July 1, 2017
He’s a player. She’s too smart to let him in her pants. Until a
night of drunken sex has her kicking herself and vowing she’ll
never let it happen again. Or will she?
After returning home due to her father’s illness, Elise
Phillips reunites with her college friends, including Luke
Long. Luke was a player back then, and Elise had always
prided herself on not being another notch on his bedpost.
Luke is still gorgeous though, and he knows it. And he
checks all her boxes—intelligent and sexy with muscles and
a hard body.
Following a night of beer and shots, her resistance runs out,
and he finally does check her box. And Elise knows that it
can never happen again.
Luke had always thought of Elise as the pretty girl that was
friends with his roommate’s girlfriend, but now she’s all grown
up. When their night of passion rocks Luke’s world he
realizes he must have her again.
The two enter a friends-with-benefits relationship with the
agreement that they’re just going to have fun. The only thing
is, with mutual friends involved, they have to hide their
indiscretion.
But what harm can come from a dirty little secret?
Dirty is the first contemporary romance from paranormal
romance author R.L. Kenderson. If you like laughing out
loud, sexy book boyfriends, playful couples, and dirty, dirty
sex, then you’ll love this fun contemporary romance.

Oh how I love contemporary romance I am in
love with this book. This book was so well
written, and so well thought out. It was funny as
hell and such a joy to read. I love how she is
setting people right about Asian men. There is
such a stereotype that should not be. I also
cannot wait to read more books by
R.L. Kenderson
This story is about Elise and Luke. And I have to
say I love that she has him a Jock but smart as
hell too, and half Asian to boot. I felt so bad for
Elsie with her dad, but really sympathize with her
and her sister about their mom. Mine was the
same way once upon a time. It is a shame that
it takes a life altering situation to pull her out of
herself righteous indignation. I mean so what
that Elise sister is gay, it is not like a diseases or
a choice, but back to Luke and Elise. Her mom is
stuck in the no sex before marriage and it has
really done a number on her. So much so she is
un-concisely causing problems for herself. And
the sad part is it may just ruin what a wonderful
thing she and Luke have. Granted the have
been sneaking behind everyone’s backs. That
does not make her unworthy but man her mom
is a real piece of work. Let’s hope someone can
talk some sense into her before it is too late.
Now before I ruin this for you I will leave off here.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did. If
you do like this book, please consider leaving a
review. The Authors really like it when you do;
they value your opinions too
Elise
sat in her office on Monday morning, going over her schedule. As a speech
therapist, she saw all different kinds of patients—from young children to
adults, from those who had had traumatic brain injuries to those who had had
strokes. But one of the nice things was that she saw her patients routinely.
She really got to know them and could find out the best way to help because
everyone was different, and what might work with one patient might not work
with the next.
She
was just finishing up some notes and had about fifteen minutes before her first
patient arrived when her phone buzzed.
Unknown number: How was the rest of
your weekend?
Elise
frowned.
Elise: Who is this?
Unknown number: Sex God, giver of
orgasms.
Elise
rolled her eyes, laughed, and added the number to her Contacts.
Elise: Charlie Hunnam, you know who I
am?
Luke: Ha-ha. You know this is Luke.
Elise: Oh, I do, huh?
Luke: Who else made you come multiple
times this weekend?
She
considered pretending like he wasn’t the only one she’d slept with just to
tease him but went a different route instead.
Elise: Maybe I was faking it.
Luke: Bwahahahaha!
Elise
frowned again.
Elise: What’s so funny about that?
Luke: Baby, there is *no way* you were
faking it.
Elise: Maybe I’m that good of an
actress.
Luke: Nobody’s that good. You might
have pretended with other guys, but I know you didn’t with me. You can moan and
throw your head back like a good actress would, but there is no faking the way
your face flushed as you climaxed or the way you scrunched up your nose right
before you came or how you were so wet that it coated your thighs. And there is
definitely no faking the way your pussy milked my fucking cock like it was
holding on for dear life. Nobody is that good.
Elise
looked around her empty office, as if someone might see his text message. It
was absurd because there was no one in the room, much less someone looking over
her shoulder. Even though she was alone, her face flushed from his words, and
she was squirming in her chair because, now, she was thoroughly aroused. At
work, of all places.
Elise: I’m not sleeping with you
again.
Luke: Ha-ha-ha. I don’t recall asking
you.
Well,
damn.
She’d
just been put in her place. Just because he’d turned her on didn’t mean that he
had meant to do it on purpose. And it didn’t mean he wanted to do anything
about it.
Elise: You’re right. How did you get
my number, btw?
Luke: I asked Sean. I told him I
needed to get ahold of you because you left something behind on Friday.
He
added a bikini emoji, which she took to stand for the underwear she’d lost at
his house. Her face got warm again, but she ignored the missing panties situation.
If
he didn’t want to sleep with her again, why had he texted her?
Elise: What did you need then?
Luke: Nothing.
Luke: I just wanted to see how you
were doing after Friday night/Saturday morning?
Aw, that was kind of sweet of him.
Elise: I’m fine.
Luke: You don’t hate me?
Elise: No. I was just as much
responsible as you were. I don’t blame you.
Elise: Plus, I went to church on
Sunday and cleansed my soul.
Luke: Ha-ha. Good to know.
“Elise?”
She
looked up to see her coworker Lora standing in her doorway. She quickly set her
phone facedown on her desk. Lora wasn’t her boss—she was another speech
therapist—but Elise was still new, and she didn’t want anyone to think she was
slacking off when she should be working.
“Yes?”
“Your
eight a.m. is here,” Lora said with a smile.
“Okay,
thank you.”
Lora
turned and walked away, and Elise picked up her phone. Luke had texted her while
she wasn’t looking.
Luke: I’ll be sure to dirty it again.
She
forgot what they’d been talking about. And, while she should be telling him she
had to go, she was too curious not to ask. Thankfully, she still had seven
minutes before it was actually eight o’clock.
Elise: Dirty what?
Luke: Your soul.
Luke: Oh, I have to run. Duty calls.
Wait!
Elise thought.
Elise: Wait. I thought you didn’t want
to sleep with me again?
Luke: When did I ever say that?
Luke: Now, I really gotta go, babe.
We’ll finish this later.
Elise
waited, but there were no more texts. Yes, he said he had to go, but that was
before he left her with such an opened ended question. How could he leave her
hanging like that?
She
shouldn’t care because when she’d said she wasn’t sleeping with him again, she’d
meant it. Yet she wanted him to text her again.
She
sent a quick reply, threw her phone in her purse, and grabbed her first patient’s
folder before heading for the waiting room. She loved her career and usually
lost herself in her work.
But,
today, she couldn’t help wondering if she wasn’t in just a fair bit of trouble
where Luke was concerned.
Luke
finished up his last report before signing off the computer. It had been a long
day at work. He was tired, and he couldn’t wait to go home. He knew he wasn’t
original in his pain, but he hated Mondays. Sundays were worse, but thankfully,
he hadn’t worked the day before.
He
packed up his things and got ready to leave for the rest of the afternoon. He
shut his locker door and headed for the parking lot. As he walked, he pulled
out his phone.
After
texting back and forth that morning with Elise, he’d been so busy that he didn’t
have time to check it all day. Not even at lunch, which had consisted of
standing in the break room, shoveling as much food into his mouth as he could
in less than ten minutes.
He
was beat and hungry, but as soon as he pulled out his phone and saw what Elise
had texted him after he had to go this morning, it made him smile.
Elise: Just like a man to start
something and not finish it.
He
hadn’t meant to start anything this a.m. when he sent her the first message. In
fact, he hadn’t even meant to flirt. It’d just happened. When he was young, his
mother repeatedly told him that he was a natural-born flirt, and he often
thought she was onto something there. Besides, flirting was just flirting. It
didn’t mean anything was going to go beyond that.
Luke: Ouch. My poor manly pride is
ruined.
He
didn’t think she’d reply right away, but she must be near her phone because, a
minute later, his phone beeped.
Elise: “Ladies, if a man says he will
fix it, he will. There’s no need to remind him every six months about it.”
If the meme fits…
He
threw his head back and laughed.
Luke: Now, I’m offended for the whole
male population.
Elise: Hey, there are a ton of those
out there, so it must be true.
Luke
got in his SUV but had to reply before he drove off.
Luke: You might think we’re lazy, but
we’re actually smart. It’s called strategy, baby. If we pretend not to be able
to do something, we know you women will get frustrated and do it for us.
Elise: I knew it! My college boyfriend
was the worst when it came to doing the laundry. He even shrank my favorite
sweater. I finally told him to stop and let me do it. I always suspected it was
a ploy.
Luke
remembered the guy Elise had dated in college. What a tool.
Luke: What a dick.
Elise: What can you do? Men suck.
Luke: We don’t suck; we lick. You’re
the one who sucks.
As
far as replies went, he knew it was pretty cheesy and immature, but he couldn’t
resist. He’d been thinking about how Elise had sucked all weekend, and he couldn’t
get it off his mind.
Elise: Real smooth, Lucas.
Luke: Had to be done.
Luke: Off work now. Have to drive
home. Talk later?
Luke
sat and stared at his phone, actually worried she’d say no.
Elise: Sure. Later.
Luke
threw his phone on the passenger seat and shifted into drive, all the while
grinning from ear to ear. He couldn’t wait to see what she would have to say
next.

R.L. Kenderson is two best friends writing under one name.
Renae has always loved reading and in third grade wrote
her first poem where she learned she might have a knack for
this writing thing.
Lara remembers sneaking her
grandmother’s Harlequin novels when she was probably too
young to be reading them, and since then she knew she
wanted to write her own.
When they met in college, they bonded over their love of
reading and the TV show Charmed. What really spiced up
their friendship was when Lara introduced Renae to
romance novels. When they discovered their first vampire
romance, they knew there would always be a special place
in their hearts for paranormal romance. After being unable to
find certain storylines and characteristics they wanted to
read about in the hundreds of books they consumed,
they decided to write their own.
They both live in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area where they’re
a sonographer/stay-at-home mom/wife and
pharmacist/mother by day and a sexy author by night.
