Dirty Rich Cinderella Story: Lori & Cole Kindle Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 2,107 ratings

A naughty fairy tale standalone with a HEA...
SEDUCED FOR A NIGHT. TAKEN FOREVER.


With only nine months left at Stanford, and despite being top of her law school class, Lori Havens takes leave to care for her sick mother. That means she juggles three jobs, the best of which is researcher for novelist, and syndicated columnist of "Cat Does Crime," Cat Summer.

One evening after finishing up her work at Cat's apartment building, Lori has an encounter with a sexy stranger, and does something out of character. She goes home with him. The night is perfect, he's perfect, wealthy, powerful and from out of town. Morning comes, and despite their connection, Lori leaves before he finds out she's far from the equal he believes her to be. She's not a charity case and she's not after his money. She will make her own. In other words, she leaves before her prince charming finds out she's no princess.

Flash forward a few months, Lori's mother is healing, and Cat's husband, Reese, has merged his firm with another and Lori lands an internship there, with school credit and scholarship money.. Everything is falling into place. That is until fate reveals a wicked twist of events and Lori walks into a conference room to find her new boss, Cole Brooks, one of the partners, is her one-night prince charming. One sizzling shared look across a boardroom, and it's clear: this man is not done with her. It's not long before Lori is informed that she'll be working high profile cases with her one night prince charming which will require long nights and travel, starting immediately.

Top reviews from the United States

  • Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2018
    If you’ve read my previous reviews of Lisa’s work, you know that Sean, from the Dirty Money series, is at the top of my heroes list. With Dirty Rich Cinderella Story, Cole Brooks nearly knocked Sean off his pedestal, but not quite. He’s everything I love in an alpha male—gorgeous, powerful, determined, intelligent, charming, and rich; but he’s also thoughtful, generous, and full of integrity. He’s confident, but not arrogant or selfish. He’s also slightly conflicted and possessive, which adds dimension to his character. He’s the whole sexy hero package. I wanted more of him.

    Lori, the heroine, is deeply conflicted as a result of personal traumas and disappointments, and as a result, she gets in her own way throughout the story. She's quick to judge and even quicker to leap to conclusions - most of which are flawed. She wants Cole, but can’t seem to fully commit for at least 80% of the book, and it's often frustrating (but necessary to the plot). Lori is smart, driven, and determined, but also over-reactive and stubborn. In Lori’s world, there is only black and white, no shades of gray. The disappointments of life experience influence her decisions and make her resistant to meet Cole halfway - that’s her biggest challenge as she struggles with her attachment to, and need for, Cole - the Prince Charming in her Cinderella story.

    Cole and Lori are powerful as a couple, personally and professionally - their desire for each other is so hot that sparks fly off the page even before the sexy times begin. They are as intense and passionate as can be. They're intellectual and sexual equals, and their push-pull power dynamic is fully expressed in the bedroom...and everywhere else.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this story, and was delighted to see a few Walker Security favorites in the mix. Reece, Cat, Adam, and Rick always bring an element of excitement to the plot; their involvement in the story feels comforting and familiar, but also adds a little humor when it's needed most.

    The only thing missing for me in this delightfully seductive story was the element of risk and suspense that I crave in Lisa’s stories. I kept waiting for something to go horribly wrong - something that would test their relationship in a dramatic way. I won't say I was disappointed - but I’m an adrenaline junkie and love a romantic suspense angle that builds to a dramatic conclusion (see my previous comments about Sean and the Dirty Money series!).

    I may add more to this review as I give it a little more thought, but for now, just trust me, buy it or borrow it, and read it. This fairy tale is a keeper - a must for romantics everywhere.

    (ebook+audiobook) I have mixed feelings, though they’re overall positive.

    I loved that the author used some elements from Cinderella to plot her story. The mistaken identity–Cole thinks Lori is a lawyer, when she’s not–was an interesting twist, as it shows that she has already all the qualities and skills to be a lawyer, it’s just circumstances that keep her from being one already. It’s also a great incentive for Cole to help her when they reunite. It keeps them from seeing each other before they end up working together, and they had time to build up their one night stand into something more. And of course, the disappearance of the ‘princess’ when morning comes, and Cole has no way to find her, was perfect.

    The case they work together was interesting. It was definitely more than a plot device to keep the reader invested. Cole shows how he works, which is revelling regarding his personality. It also provides good exemples of Lori’s talent. There’s a bit of danger that add a little thrill to their relationship. It was well done.

    One of the things that bothered me the most was their trust issues. Both had serious hangups. Cole’s jealousy is barely understandable. As for Lori, while seeing her determination to succeed by herself was inspiring, the fact that she always refuses help or rewards that she clearly deserved became annoying in the end. It keeps interfering with her relationship with Cole, for no reason. Her daddy issues were also a bit far fetched in my opinion.

    The other thing was the instalust/instalove going on. It was mitigated by the fact that they talk a lot and share some deep moments after their first sexy encounter, meaning they could develop at least a serious interest in each other. But why some playboy like Cole would already break some of his rules and bring Lori into his hotel room when he never does that? I didn’t get it, unless it’s a case of instalove. And the obsession he nurtures afterward was also a bit much.

    The narration was as good as ever, since both narrators are talented. The female narrator has the most chapters and does a great job with all characters.

    So it was overall quite good, though I think it could have been even better–though my complaints may be more a matter of taste.

    In book 2 of the Dirty Rich series, Lisa Renee Jones gives readers the story of Lori Havens, assistant to Cat from book 1 and Cole Brooks, the new partner at Summer & Brooks Law firm.

    Lori is the type of character that you love to love; smart, dedicated, loyal. She is also juggling a lot; school, three jobs, and caring for her mother. She doesn't have time to breathe let alone meet men. Cole is the unicorn-male, the stuff of dreams. Successful, brilliant, ethical. He also knows a good woman when he meets one. The two have chemistry that is off the charts and, luckily for them, it usually overrides these two "think too much" people.

    The story is a great combination of hot, sweet, funny, swoon, and engrossing. Ms. Jones knows how to get her readers attention and she knows how to keep it. She makes sure that her stories have you not only reading about a couple finding love but also themselves while throwing in the right amount of interesting side story.

    Dirty Rich Cinderella is what I've come to expect from Lisa Renee Jones. Fantastic writing, characters that you can't get enough of and a level of heat guaranteed to get the blood pumping. If you are a fan, definitely add this to your collection. If you are a newbie, this is a great place to start.

    ** Part of a series but can absolutely be read standalone.

    This was an awesome fast moving story with loads of passion that Cole and Lori have for each other and their jobs. When they meet the immediate spark between them leads them to a steamy night, both of them opening up and going places they’ve never gone before with another human being. But come morning Lori runs, scared, her life has no room for a relationship while she works tirelessly to pay off debts from her late father’s gambling and her mothers hospital bills. A few months later, With her mother finally healthy enough to return to work and Lori ready to return to finish her law degree- Good friends help her get an amazing scholarship to finish her schooling and a new job at their new law firm. And wouldn’t you know it, Cole is her new boss. Lori is freaked out, but Cole is beyond determined to never let her go again. Despite Lori’s reservations she and Cole work fabulously together, and I loved reading their interactions on their cases, how hard they worked together and complimented each other fantastically. When they made mistakes they were quick to make them right. I’m excited to continue their story in the next book!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Pleasure to read!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 23, 2018
    It is always a pleasure to read one of Lisa’s romances, as we always have a strong women with integrity and who like to kick ass when warranted.
    This one has Lori, just nine months before finishing her law degree, her father died leaving her mother with his gambling debts. Then her mother has a stroke with the stress. So Lori finds herself responsible for everything. The only thing she can do is leave college and work three jobs.
    So while this has happened her mother’s out of hospital and things start to look up. When she meets Cat (Dirty Rich one night Stand) in a bar to catch up, as she helps Cat as her assistant . They have become good friends, but on this occasion Cat receives a call and has to leave.
    Suddenly the hot man she had bumped into earlier sees her, and for one night she wants forget everything and escape. Cole can’t believe his luck. Let just say they go to his hotel, under the conditions Lori sets no last names and just for tonight.
    Well we all knows what happens, and it was HOT, in the morning Lori runs. Cole and Lori can’t stop thinking about each other. Both not realising they had mutual friends (Reese and Cat)
    That’s it I hope I’ve wetted your appetite for more, this is completely standalone and a full length story. As always a really perfect story, and I  was  totally enthralled.  By the way Cole is really delicious and I want him
