Blurb/Summary:

Former mean girl Dixie Davis is back in town and it's payback time. Literally. Dixie is flat broke and her best—make that only—friend, Landon, is throwing her a lifeline from the Great Beyond. Dixie stands to inherit his business…if she meets a few conditions: 
She's got to live in Landon's mansion. 
With her gorgeous ex-fiancé, Caine Donovan. 
Who could also inherit the business. 
Which is a phone sex empire. 
Wait, what? 
Landon's will lays it out: whoever gets the most new clients becomes the owner of Call Girls. Dixie has always been in it to win it, especially when it comes to Caine, who's made it clear he's not going down easy. (Oh, mercy.) Can Dixie really talk dirty and prove that she's cleaned up her act? Game on!

Plum Orchard, Georgia, is about to get even juicier…


Review:

This was an ARC so I can’t comment on the editing because it wasn’t finished yet, but I can tell you that even if they miss something in the final process you won’t care because the story will have you riveted to your seat.  Talk Dirty to Me captured my attention on the first page and kept it until the last.  It is an emotional rollercoaster of a story that will leave you a little drained at the end from all the laughing, crying, and introspection.

The small town mentality of ostracizing that which is different in Talk Dirty to Me will be relatable to a large majority of people.  You don’t have to live in a small town to have experienced the cliques and clubs from high school or work.  The Magnolias add to the spice and drama of the story with their antics.

The main characters, Dixie Davis and Caine Donovan, are spectacular.  Dixie is a reformed mean girl on her way to make reparation for her past.  She has to face up to the past by going back to where it all started, home, for the funeral of her best friend, Landon.  Dixie has a long road ahead of her with nothing to fall back on if she fails in the game her friend Landon has set into motion.

Caine Donovan is an outgoing, nice guy that was screwed over and hurt by Dixie in the past.  If he is going to be able to move forward and win Landon’s game then he is going to have to face his animosity for Dixie and what she put him through.    

Talk Dirty to Me is a story that offers a second chance at love to Dixie and Caine, but will their lack of communication and complicated pasts keep them from seizing the chance?  Dakota Cassidy cleverly weaves a bit of mystery into the story line that will keep the reader questioning their future.

I highly recommend this book.  It is an enjoyable read with a story that does not disappoint.  If you are looking for a Contemporary Romance with sizzle, drama, witty and sarcastic dialogue, and a great plot; Dakota Cassidy delivers.
