good for short read
some better sex scenes than previous books in series

simplistic and unsatisfying conclusions re: mimi's need to prioritize career over sex/ love life.

I adored Mimi. I'm still not sure if I want to be her or be with her. Sosa's writing continues to enthrall me.

"I can’t forget that night, okay? And the idea that we’re just going to pretend it never happened seems wrong somehow.”

It continues to bite at Mimi that Daniel rejected her even knowing why. I love that Sosa doesn’t correct this easily. Trust is hard for Mimi. Daniel may have been well intentional but he hurt her. It takes time for her to trust him again. And just as she does, she gets pulled into working for him.

The short of it is: Mimi needs Daniel's firm as a client. Her goals and her future are very much at stake. I love that Sosa doesn’t soften how this could impact Mimi

There's also a good conversation about professionalism. I agree curating an image to feel safe in the workplace comes at cost. Mimi starts this to avoid harassment. But it's not her. It doesn't protect her. She still experiences sexism. (draft)

This was definitely my favorite of the series just because Mimi was so lively. And I kept picturing Daniel Vargas as the guy from Jane the Virgin.

Getting Dirty with the CEO is the third book in the adult contemporary romance series, called The Suits Undone series, by author Mia Sosa. This was a fun, quick read. Each of the books works well as a standalone. In fact, I didn't even know that this book was the third book in the series until I had finished it and was drafting my review post. I had absolutely no issues following the storyline and the character. I am excited, now that I get to read books 1 and 2 because this one was a lot of fun. If you are a fan of some great bickering and resisting, this is going to be a hit with you.

Getting Dirty with the CEO is told in dual narrative between the two main characters, Mimi and Daniel. The story starts out at a wedding (which, now that I am thinking about it, was probably the wedding of one of the couples from book 1 or 2.) and Daniel and Mimi have an almost- hook up. Then the book flashes forward to four months later and the real story takes off from there. At a bachelor charity auction in fact. I had to chuckle at the scene in the book where Mimi was about to big on a guy for a charity she loved...until she found out he was a trust and estate planning attorney. Wouldn't want to be stuck with a boring guy like that...haha. (::coughcoughnotallestateplanningattorniesareboringcoughcough::)

What I liked most about this story was how persistent Daniel was. Yes, Mimi would just call him cocky, but there is always something that gets to me when a guy knows what he wants and continues to go after it. I just love that. Plus, the two of them together cracks me up. They are a blast and a half. Give me a couple with witty dialogue and razor sharp tongues and I am a happy gal. And that is Mimi and Daniel to a tee. That's why Daniel was even half way interested in Mimi in the first place. She gives as good as she gets.

Bottom line: If you are looking for a quick and fun read that will have you laughing, check out Getting Dirty with the CEO by Mia Sosa. The romance is fantastic and the characters are hilarious together. This one was a hit for me (minus the whole estate planning jab...just kidding :p).
