Dirty Exes (Liars, Inc. Book 1) Kindle Edition
They’re serving up some red-hot revenge. A sizzling series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel van Dyken.
Blaire has never quite gotten over Jessie Beckett, the ex–NFL star whose kisses were hot enough to ignite the entire Eastern Seaboard. When he chose work over her, Blaire was left brokenhearted. Why else would she have married a skeezy two-timer, just to divorce him less than a year later?
Now Blaire is getting even by becoming one half of Dirty Exes, a PI firm fully committed to humiliating cheating jerks. If only the new jerk she’s been hired to uncover wasn’t Jessie Beckett himself.
Exposing Jessie isn’t going to be easy, especially when she still daydreams about his sexy smile. Further complicating matters is Colin, Jessie’s best friend. He’s gorgeous, a little bit cunning, and willing to help Blaire get the inside scoop on Jessie—for a price.
Now caught between two men—one totally right and the other totally wrong—Blaire will need to decide just how much she’s willing to risk…and whom she’s willing to risk it for.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2018I’ve been in a reading funk lately, and Dirty Exes by Rachel Van Dyken was just what I needed. It had everything you want in a great book.. laughs, angst, drama, and a story you just can’t put down. The characters are amazingly written, and you just can’t help but fall in love with them!
From the opening few paragraphs of this book to the very end I was engaged in this story and the plot. Blaire is an amazingly written character who even though has had struggles of her own, has found a way to try to move forward by co-founding Dirty Exes with her friend Ilsa to out cheating spouses on Facebook Live. When her firm is hired to find out if Jessie Beckett, ex-NFL star and to Blaire, the one that got away, things definitely get interesting.
From running into Jessie’s best friend Collin, to awkward run in’s with Jessie, Blaire finds herself in some pretty unique situations. Trying to fight her attraction to Jessie, and figuring out if he is a cheater, and what happened to the guy she once knew. Through all of this, Blaire truly finds herself, peace in her failed marriage, and the perfect partner for herself, someone who makes her truly happy and balances her out.
I loved how this book played out. All the twists and turns, and the banter between all of the characters. I was always rooting for one of the guys to win over Blaire’s heart, and was hoping that she would make the right choice, but at times I would wonder if she would make the right choice or not. This was a book that had me on the edge of my seat, staying up way past my bedtime just to see what was going to happen next. I adored all of these characters, even when I wanted to hate them, and I really can not wait to get Ilsa’s book because let’s face it, she deserves her HEA as well!
If you’re looking for an amazing book that will make you laugh, swoon, and believe in love after heartbreak again, this is definitely the book for you. I can’t recommend Dirty Exes by Rachel Van Dyken enough, it’s a definite must read!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018Reviewed For I'm A Sweet And Sassy Book Whore
I am not going to lie it took me a while to get into Dirty Exes and for me that is not usual when it comes to a Rachel Van Dyken Book. This one is written differently than her other books and I think that is what caused me to not immediately be hooked, but let me make it clear that’s not a bad thing because once I was hooked, I was hooked. I love the premise of Dirty Exes; I mean I would have to put some of my cheating exes on blast as well.
I also need to point out that for the majority of the book, Blaire drove me insane. She was laser focused, didn’t want to hear excuses or even think about what she was doing by exposing so called cheaters. I understood where her anger and focus came but at the same time after a while, it got annoying. Don’t worry though by the end of the book I really liked her character, it just took me a while before that happened. Jessie and Colin add to the twists and turns of the book. Jessie is Blaire’s ex whom she also still has feelings for, and Colin is his best friend. Blaire is supposed to catch Jessie cheating, and Colin well let me just say he had me smiling and laughing throughout the book. I don’t want to give away what happens and who Blaire ends up with so I obviously won’t be telling you that, just read the book.
Dirty Exes was cute, funny, at times a bit frustrating but overall another great book from Rachel Van Dyken. I am already wishing that I had the next book in my book whore hands; because I have a feeling, it may even top this one.
Received an ARC for which I voluntarily provided an honest review
- Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2018Dirty Exes was such a fun and unexpected read. I mean, I just loved the heck out of this book. From laugh out loud moments to crazy antics to a swoon worthy romance that just knocks you off your feet, this book is easily one of my favorite books that I’ve read so far this year.
Dirty Exes is smartly written and will suck you in from the very first page. The plot is fun and entertaining. The characters will captivate you and suck you in to their stories. I fell in love with Blaire from the moment I met her. Life had dealt her some pretty craptastic cards when it came to love, and she wasn’t in the market at all. She loved catching cheaters and serving their spouses or significant others justice and the closure they need. Closure…that is the one thing Blaire never got. She has a lot of what if’s in her life and it looks like fate is about to drop into her life and turn it totally upside down….
Dirty Exes took me on one heck of a ride. It wasn’t anything like I expected. It knocked my socks off and had me laughing in stitches. I couldn’t get enough of this story and the characters. It was the perfect book to spend my afternoon getting lost in. This book had it all: smart writing, witty banter, fun characters, light angst, just the right amount of drama, and some seriously sweet moments. I may have found myself swooning over a particular character a time or two, but I’m not going to tell you which one. You’re just going to have to pick up this read for yourself and see which character won over my heart…..
A truly fantastic read. I can’t wait to read more from this series!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cereal for thought
This books is one of my all time favorite RomCom. I found it delightful and so humorous. I listened to it on Audible at work and people thought I was crazy for laughing so hard.

5.0 out of 5 stars FAVORITE!
First I was more interested in the second book, because I read a bit on
Book and Main.
This one is my favorite now. It was so much fun and Colin is seriously very swoony!! I believe this is the first book with an older woman that I loved! I don't know why but normally age gaps ( this is only 5) aren't my thing. Normally I read about the man being older maybe that's why.
Colin is so much fun and so sweet! Blaire went through a rough love path. I truly hate cheaters with a passion! So I understand thrir passion and devotion for their work. But like they said that's also one side of the story, and not all is what it seems.
I winked. She flipped me off. This was the start to a beautiful... something.
"Don't ever apologize for eye-fucking, it's rude."
Yep Colin is really funny!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheating has never felt so DIRTY:)
If you are looking for a book that is both humorous and will hold your interest, then look no further because you’ve just found it! Blaire and Isla work as PIs taking on cases of exposing cheaters. When their latest case involves Jessie, the NFL player that got away from Blaire, she has mixed emotions of exposing him! However, Colin - who is Jessie’s BFF - helps her willingly but he wants Blaire in his life, his bed and as his future:)
Definitely laugh out loud moments in this book and also edge of my seat frustration with certain characters but overall it was an amazing book and I’m keen to jump into the next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dirty Ex’s by Rachel Van Dyken a five-star read that will make you wonder
Dirty Ex’s by Rachel Van Dyken a five-star read that will make you wonder. This is the first read in the Liars, inc. series and it kicks off with a bang. Blooming hell doesn’t it, how would you choose between the one that got away and his best friend, Blaire faces a quandary and I was spinning back and forth between the two for most of the story, I wanted one, then the other, then I just got greedy and wanted both. But without giving the game away I’m glad that she made the right decision in the end. Dirty Ex’s is a great idea and I would be happily signing up for those live videos!! This was comedic in places and serious in others and had just the right amount of both in great quantities t make this a great read. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the next instalment in the series Dangerous Ex’s.

4.0 out of 5 stars 2nd time reading is even better
I just have to say first off I don’t very often read a book twice. For some reason I felt compelled to give this one a second go around.
I am now so in love with this story I’m going to read the 2nd book in the series.
I mean how can you not love Blaire and Isla. They are both a hoot and so lovable. Their love life has been tumultuous to say the least. But somehow it hasn’t broken them. And then let’s add in Colin and Jesse. Man my heart is still beating to fast.
I’m so telling you all read this series you will not be sorry. You will laugh, cry, scream and still not want of the ride.
