This was an incredible conclusion to Diana's story and I love where she ended up as she came full circle. Great ending!

This is the conclusion to the Dirty Diana series. This book was my favorite in the series.

In this installment of the series, we see how Oliver and Diana come back together. The ways they work through their relationship. We also see how Dirty Diana website is starting to take off.

I loved all,of the characters in this story. I liked that we could see the development of the characters from the beginning of the story all the way through until the end.

This was a series I hated to see end.

Yes! A wonderful conclusion to this series. I enjoyed the writing and following the outcome for Diana. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. Well-written and creative from beginning to end!

‘The satisfying conclusion to the sizzling Dirty Diana series, in which Diana says yes to what she truly wants and sees just how hard she’ll have to fight for it—based on the #1 fiction podcast…’
 
GAHHHDAYUMUTT! I KNEW CATALINA WAS COMIN!! I knew it! And even though I sensed the geometrical formation of the… ehhh, isosceles triangle… early on, I couldn’t quite bring myself to fully trust my newfound clairvoyance and ability to math like a mf’r…💀

What I did NOT see, as a fresh oracle 😌, was Oliver unhooking his freak leash completely and using it as a makeshift lasso to capture the captain and go for the muzzle-lock!😳 Dayummm Oli Boiii, didn’t know ya had it in ya.

Anyway. I’m sure gonna miss my new best book bitches & the beefcakes who dickmatised them...
*sighs*

Big thanks to NetGalley & the pub for this arc!

One thing about me is that I'm always going to be rooting for Diana Wood. This book was so easy to love. Diana's story evolved in a really satisfying way here - it left me wanting more the moment I finished it. Diana and Oliver's reconciliation in this book of the series was smart, mature, and well-told. I wish there was more time spent in this book establishing future directions for L'Wren and Alicia. Those two were well developed (and central) characters in the first two books and I missed their involvement in Diana's story in this final book of the series.

Honestly, a bit gutted with this one. The whole series was electrifying until about a quarter through this book and then the pace became stilted and then suddenly super rushed. I think that the authors tried to wrap everything up in a pretty little bow in the shortest amount of time, and Diana as a character and situationally was too complex for this kind of treatment. Right after Catalina, suddenly the book was over and I don’t think that was the best choice because Oliver and Diana still had growing to do that we as readers needed to see in order for the book to properly end in the way the authors intended.

I also went in expecting really great spice because of the first two installments, but it seemed like there was more fade to black and just less spice overall. I don’t think that marriage being back on track should have resulted in the sex life going off track because that is the antithesis of Diana’s journey. Love the first two books, loved Oliver in this one, didn’t love this as the ending of a great series.

This story is my favorite of all three. Diana comes full circle in this story; deciding to be happy with her choices and how she chooses to be with. Her friendships with different women during the stages of her growth are explored a bit more in this story. The final fantasy at the end which happens to be Diana’s really sums up the entire story! 4.5 stars

Loved it! The perfect conclusion to the Dirty Diana trilogy. Devoured this story in under 48 hours. I will forever be a fan of Jen and Shana and can't wait to see what else they write!

Thank you to NetGalley and Dial Press for the ARC.

The conclusion to the Dirty Diana series and my favorite ! This needs to become a tv series as soon as possible. This is the next Sex and the City Series. I love Diana, Oliver and even Jasper and even all the side characters. I am already casting them in my head for the upcoming HBO series.

Definitely read this series as they are short and fun… but they are also spicy so be prepared! 🌶️🌶️

Thank you to Dial Press Publishing and NetGalley for the advanced E-ARC of this book.

I have loved this series so much and am sad that this is the end. However, this book is the perfect way to close out this series. The authors have given Diana and Oliver a sense of contentment that was missing in the previous books. I waited 2 books for sexy Oliver to emerge and the authors did not disappoint. I loved the continued counseling of Oliver and Diana as they work through their past and find a way to a future together. If you thought the first 2 books were steamy, the authors had my jaw on the floor with this one. This book sets off all the smoke alarms.
As a duo author, you cannot tell where one voice ends and the other begins. It is seamless.

My favorite part of this series is the depiction of female sexuality. The authors absolutely nail the trials of being a woman, a mother, and wife. To be desired and respected. To be confident yet humble. To embrace yourself, your fantasies and not have to apologize for it.

I'm so sad to have to say goodbye to Diana, Oliver and the rest of the characters in the final book of the Dirty Diana series. It was such a fun ride seeing the growth for the characters after reading the three books that you really feel like you know them and feel connected to them. I loved seeing Diana and Oliver learning new things about each other (and themselves) even after all the time they've been together. A smart, funny, and real story that makes you feel more connected to yourself after reading. I hope the authors will keep on writing!!

Thank you to Random House and NetGalley for the arc in exchange for my honest review.

firstly, thank you to the publisher for an arc!!

this whole series was absolutely fantastic — from the way it was written and the way the conversations and plot flowed, right down to the steamy scenes.

the fact that one of my inklings actually happened had me SHOOK, but i’m so so happy with the way this series ended.

absolutely recommend to those looking for an empowering contemporary romance series that they will read in the blink of an eye!!

An excellent read for any and all readers! Author comes at you with both barrels and knocks you out of your shoes! Great job fleshing out all the characters. I give this book FIVE stars! Definitely recommend!

Catalina. Catalina. CATALINA. Ugh, it's bittersweet to end this series because this was one of the best books I discovered last year. Diana is such a well developed and well written character, practically everyone in this novel is (even the side characters) and that's why it sucks to have to say goodbye. But if it weren't for the insane character growth that occurs within these three books, more importantly this series- I wouldn't feel as satisfied as I do with it ending. Book three did an amazing job on finally illustrating Oliver and Diana's connection and physical chemistry (I was never fully sold on it in the last two books). I loved Alicia's soliloquy on mother and wifehood and her desire to just exist alone at times. Diana finding her voice with the threat of the school moms was well done with the consistent dialogue around womanhood and how sex is presented to women/girls. Jasper's reappearance was a welcome yet impactful surprise that left me speechless for all the right reasons. This last book was a great finale to the series and I can only hope a movie/miniseries is the next step.

how is this the end?? i’m going to miss this world and these characters so much 🥹 i will say that i didn’t expect one bit of this conclusion and it went in a COMPLETELY different direction than i ever could have predicted- did i enjoy it? hmm i was a tad taken aback, but this was just as addicting as the first two and i sat and finished it in one sitting

Things are looking up for Diana. She is slowly reconciling with her husband, she is still painting, and her website is gaining in popularity. Diana, however, has not yet told Oliver about her website/side venture. Will this secret put a definite end to their relationship?

This was a fun conclusion to the series. The story focuses on Diana's evolving relationship with Oliver, the growing success of Dirty Diana, and the puzzle that is Jasper.

Thank you to Random House and NetGalley for the opportunity to read a copy.
