Filthy Liar is the 5th book in the Bodyguards series, this time we have Jason’s story.
A billionaire is being blackmailed, it’s up to Jason and his Horus team to discover who the blackmailer is and how he/she has been able to doctor photographs and legal documents to smear their client. Enter Ella/Melinda an investigative reporter who five years previously posed as a secretary to discover more about Horus and then disappeared after having a very brief fling with Jason.
Full of political intrigue and sexual tension and a fairly suspenseful plot, however I did not find this book quite as entertaining as the previous four, for me too much Technical information which distracted from the story rather than added to it.
Overall not a bad story just not as page turning as I have found this authors previous books.
My thanks to net galley and publisher for the opportunity to review this book honestly.

This pretty full on. It’s part of a series and it felt like everything was building up to this hugely impactful, dramatic point. Some of this is fairly graphic and will perhaps be confronting to some readers, but it is not gratuitous and Is highly relevant to the story. I didn’t like many of the characters but I did like the story. The writing style was sometimes a bit dramatic but it did not detract from the overall enjoyment of the book as a whole.

After binging the first four books of Forbidden Body Guards earlier this year, I was highly anticipating Filthy Liar, and now I finally got the chance to read it.

I'm not usually into political intrigue, but somehow it worked for me with this series. Ainsley Booth draws you in with her dirty-talking alphas and keeps you hooked with sexual tension and chemistry as well as a quick-moving, suspenseful plot. She did exactly that with Jason and Ellie/Melinda's story.

I do wish there had been more appearances by previous characters as well as a bit more closure for the series, but I can appreciate that this was to be more focused on Jason and Melinda (and really none of the other characters needed a reappearance except for the men of The Horus Group).

This is book five in The Forbidden Bodyguards Series and it is Jason and Elle (Melinda)story and omg what a story it is. There are so many twists and turns along with betrayal, secrets, lies, hope, love and many other situations and that is what makes this book a real page and you have to keep reading to see what will happen week and it is so addictive that I couldn't put it down. Jason and Elle have history and a real strong connection and chemistry between them so when they see each other after so many years everything is still as strong as ever but there are so many secrets and lies between them that they don't know if it will work between and if they will get a second chance. Winslet Booth is an amazing author and writer and I definitely recommend you read this book and others by her as they are definitely worth reading.

If you like Mystery & Thrillers mixed with. Romance, then you will like this book. This is book 5 of the series, which I did not know. To some it does not matter.

Filthy lies, second chances?

Jason is part of Horus Group....elite fixers )think Scandal). Five years ago, he did the no-no (or is that oh, yes!) with their receptionist Ellie.

Ellie, is not Ellie, rather, she's the Bad A Melinda, a secret alpha (hint, its not you, Jason) who is an investigative journalist. She goes under cover. Now, she's back in Jason's orbit and its just as steamy as it was five years ago...

Recommend. Steamy, delicious fun, with a hint of political scandal ripped right outta the headlines.

I enjoyed this book. It is the fifth book in a series but can be read as a stand-alone. It is the first book I read and I didn't have any issues! I will definitely be going back to read the rest of the series.

Good book! This book was hot! Lol but it also had a great story and had some heartache and heartbreak! It had lots of suspense and action packed! Definitely don't miss out on this book!Thank you NetGalley and the publishers for sharing this book with me!

Stunning political thriller with a hot, hot, hot romance!

Five years after she ghosted Jason, Melinda (Ellie) is back in DC, and despite her attempts to avoid him at all costs, their paths keep crossing at various events. This gripping thriller has a deliciously intense romance set against a true "ripped-from-the-headlines" plot that feels so real if only because of how it matches today's current events. This is all the more remarkable when you realize the author started this series (and overarching storyline) more than five years ago.

I was captivated right from the start, and constantly surprised by the twists and turns that the story took. If you're wondering which one is the "filthy liar" of the title, let me assure you there are plenty of liars in this post-truth world, none more so than those who are lying to protect the truth. The fascinating commentary on our current events was deftly interspersed throughout the plot but never became preachy or heavy-handed. If you like political thrillers, you don't want to miss this book.

The shocking ending led to the sweetest of HEAs, and I loved every last bit of it. I've read the earlier books years ago, but I'm going to reread them again just to put the whole timeline together. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

I really liked this book. Despite this being the fifth in this series it was the first one that I've read. It was easily read as a standalone and I never found myself lost or confused about the characters' pasts. It was a brilliant balance of high action investigation and sizzling romance. I loved the dynamic between Ellie and Jason; their banter was great to read. I did feel like they fell a bit flat once they actually became a couple; it seemed like it was the natural progression for the story despite the fact that not much had changed between them starting to date and them not trusting each other. I loved the side characters and they made me want to go back and read about their stories. I felt like we got a lot of Ellie's backstory but not much on Jason and that could be down to the fact this is the fifth in the series, never the less I wish we found out more about his past. It had funny moments but nothing that made me laugh out loud. I always enjoy romances with a more hard-hitting or dramatic side to them; however, I felt this was more of an action/spy novel with a hint of romance than the other way around - not that that was a bad thing - it just wasn't what I expected but despite that, it was brilliant to read and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It was enjoyable and a nice quick read but it lacked that spark that pushes it to a 5 star read.
