Title: Dirty Girls
Author: Lily White
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: January 29, 2020
They were the boys any good girl knew to avoid.
Rich and privileged.
Gorgeous and cruel.
The poster boys for rebellion…their tongues so sharp they cut to the bone.
We worshipped them despite their dangerous games.
We laughed even as we cried.
It was all fun and games until the first dirty girl died.
Now, as the bodies pile up, I believe I can endure their wicked ways. Only time will tell if I’ll escape.
Because when wealthy boys are accustomed to getting everything they want, not even the lives of those around them are too high an asking price.
Warning: This book is a dark romance. If you are looking for a sweet and tender story, you won’t find it here.
“Lily White at it again, she likes to whip you with suspense, choke you with mystery, and keep you guessing until very end!” ~Amazon review
“... a fascinating, disturbing, intriguing and thought provoking read.” ~Amazon Review

I was putting distance between us with each step, the numbers growing faint until I barely heard ten. They had to be a good distance away, but I didn’t think it would be enough. Already, thin branches had grabbed at my hair and ripped individual strands from my head. My feet had stumbled over stones on the ground and roots that were growing too high up. Every so often, thick patches of bushes would block my way, causing me to turn left or right to avoid them. I was engulfed in darkness, the moon and stars hidden above the canopy of trees, and eventually the forest around me grew silent. I could only hear my heavy breathing. But I didn’t stop. Didn’t turn to see if I could hear footsteps behind me, didn’t slow down to give myself even a second to catch my breath. I just kept going without concern for where I would end up, as long as it was away from them. For a moment I believed that I’d somehow outrun them, but when a tree blocked my path and I had to dodge to avoid it, a hand slapped at my arm causing me to scream. I turned again and ran in a different direction with deep laughter booming from where I had been. I was being corralled, but still I kept running, even when my body wanted to give out.


***4 Stars***

This was a fascinating, disturbing, intriguing and thought provoking read.

Which pretty much goes for most of what this author puts out into the world, but it needed to be said.

What else needs to be said is that I find myself in a weird spot because I really enjoyed the suspense/murder mystery side of the story, I had a hard time with the characters in this one. Not all, but a lot of them.

 As for the murder mystery side of the coin, it was well crafted in every way and when the big reveal came, everything made sense ~ in a twisted and heart breaking sort of way.

As for the characters. Even though the majority of them had me growling and wanting to use a 2x4 to smack some sense into them ~  a couple I did want to gut with a spoon, especially one in particular but I shall not name that person since this is a non-spoilery review ~ I found them fascinating in how they justified the choices they made based on boredom, a false sense of superiority or simply a need to belong. These characters are all flawed, even the two I actually liked, and regardless of my reactions to them, they definitely made the observer of human nature in me all kinds of happy.

I know this review is all kinds of vague, but it had to be because everything is in the details and I did not want to inadvertently give anything away. Overall, I enjoyed this book ~ even with all the eye rolling and growling I did ~ the suspense was well done and I liked how it all played out. The “romance” side, as well as some of the interpersonal relationships, was done well, but there certain relationships I would have liked to have gone deeper with, one in particular I definitely needed more out of in the end, but I do understand why things worked out with them the way they did. There is one character I would love to spend more time with, but maybe it’s best to just leave things as they were in the book.

Note: This book is filled with triggers, FILLED.
