**I read Dirty Nights by A.M. Hargrove when it was first published as a series of 3 short novellas under the pen name of Emerson St. Clair**First, let me start by saying I'm a huge fan of A.M. Hargrove. I love her style of writing and it just gets better, and hotter, with each book she writes. So, when Annie told me she was writing under a different name and this was so different and much hotter than her other work I was like, "yeah bring it on!"Omigod, she wasn't wrong, I loved it!!! Dirty Nights is dirtier, badder, grittier and sooo much hotter than she's ever wrote before...my favourite story of hers to date. I devoured this book like I would a bar of my favourite chocolate...finished in one sitting! I was hooked from the first page until the very last with quite a few nail-biting moments and a lot of panty-melting scenes too!!My heart broke for the two main characters, Sky and Ryder. If ever two people deserved a break in life they did, two broken people trying to survive the best way they know how.Skylina, or Sky, had a horrendous upbringing being pimped out by her drug-addicted mother for money to buy her next fix. Oh, I wanted to punch her mother right between the eyes for what she put Sky through!Ryder has a promising future ahead of him as te Premier Danseur with the Metropolitan Ballet Company, that is until it is cruelly snatched away from him one day when a viscous attack leaves him fighting for his life.Neither knows of each other's existence until fate intervenes and sees Ryder bumping into Sky, literally, in a coffee shop and then coming to her rescue later that night when she is nearly raped in an alley. There is an instant spark between them but they also recognise something else in each other that draws them together and so begins a wonderful and moving story of how two people, from different walks of life but equally broken, try to fix each other. The chemistry between Sky & Ryder was electric and so hot my kindle nearly exploded!! I adore this couple so much.Sometimes, you are lucky enough to pick up a book where you connect with the story, and the characters, so much that it stays with you no matter how long ago you read the book and, for me, this is the case with Dirty Nights.Even now, weeks after reading Sky & Ryder's story, I'm at a loss at what to say to do them justice. All I can say is...if there is one book you download this week, make it this one!!!I can't recommend Dirty Nights highly enough. Go on 1-click buy NOW and treat yourself to a Dirty Night!!
