This was a cute story, but I wanted more from this story. Cal and Jenna had chemistry, but given the title I was looking for some a bit more dirty than what we got.
Cal and Jenna were high school sweethearts. He was the bad boy that she was warned to stay away from. Despite that, these two managed to find love and promises of a future. When all that goes wrong and Jenna goes away to college, neither Cal or Jenna got over each other. When Jenna comes back home to help the family financial company, the two of them have to deal with their unresolved feelings for each other, the events that lead to their break up and if they could put everything in the past and move forward.
Cal was a bit of an ass and I had to wonder if there was going to be a point where I truly liked him. It came, but I often found myself trying to remember his redeeming qualities when his a-hole ones were taking over. He was gruff and quick to jump to conclusions, but he was also a guy who was incredibly loyal to his family. He was willing to push what he wanted to the back burner in order to put family first...even if that meant he didn't get what he wanted.
Jenna was a sweet girl. She was a people pleaser. When her father beckoned her to come home, she did in the hopes she could save the family business and prove she was a capable person when it came to the business. And when it came to Cal, she was willing to forget everything to have something with him. At times I had to wonder why she let him treat her the way he did, but she knew what laid beyond his gruffness and was way more willing than me to put the work into getting to that man.
This was a cute and enjoyable read. There were a very moments that either had me smiling or laughing out loud For those moments, it's worth picking up DIRTY THOUGHTS.
