Real Dirty by Meghan March is the first book in her brand new Real Dirty Duet. This is Boone Thrasher, the bad-boy of country music's book. We have gotten to know his character a little in the last series, the Real Duet, but he was so much more than I was expecting. Good Lord! Grab something to fan yourself with - you'll need it. 
 Boone takes no crap from anyone. He shoots straight and doesn't water himself down for anyone. Not the fans, not his publicist and not Ripley - the smoking hot bartender at the dive bar his friend takes him to on the night he realizes the woman he was going to propose to, stood him up. 
 Ripley has never had an easy life. Death, tragedy, and emotional abuse at the hands of her father are just a few things. When Boone Thrasher walks into her bar her life gets simultaneously harder and better for his presence. The more he tries to help, the worse things get but the fact that he is trying is more than almost anyone has ever done for Ripley in her life. 
 The chemistry between these two is scorching. I cannot wait for book two and yet will be sad when their story is over. When I started this journey into Meghan's books it began with Creighton and Holly in the Dirty Billionaire Trilogy. I never expected that journey to come this far and be quite this amazing but I have loved every word I have read so far. Enjoy!
