This book is exactly what the title implies Filthy and Sweet. I liked the book, but this one wasn't love. There was some mild angst, but it comes from outside sources not between the MCs. This is falling for your best friends nerdy little brother and proceeding to do dirty dirty things to him. Things that Owen begs Fox for, things that Owen has desperately wanted to explore.

I liked how supportive Fox was of Owen and his desires. He made sure to never shame him, and always encourage him to ask for what he wants. Fox gave Owen confidence and in return Owen gave Fox someone who he could lean on. That is something Fox has never had in his life, except with his best friend Reggie who just happens to be Owens big bro. There in lies the problem.

I did really love Reggie and his use of the BIG REGGIE voice. He was definitely a muscled bro, but he was also just such a happy guy. He always seemed to be smiling and looked for the good in people. Reggie is a bit overprotective of his little brother, but it comes from a good place. It comes from a place of love and I wish everyone in the world had someone like Reggie in their life.

As I get older, I find myself judging books on whether I think they could happen in reality - would the characters behave the way they do if I met them in real life, and I can honestly say that R. Cayden creates amazing characters who I'd like to know in real life and whose story I can see really happening! This is definitely true with their latest work, Filthy Sweet, which releases today! I wasn't the only reviewer on our team to get a chance to ARC Filthy Sweet, so I'll save the rest of my thoughts for the full review and let you see what other opinions are out there... (spoiler alert - this was 5 stars across the board!)

One of the minor characters name kept changing and it threw me off. A glaring mistake that could’ve been solved with an editor.

I'm SEETHING.

Fuck this book.

This book started off so strong and solid and cute, the devastating crash literally makes me see red.

This was a fun read. I really liked the characters. Owen was really sweet, but he knew what he wanted. And as damaged as Fox was, under his tough exterior, he was just a softy. I really liked them together, and I absolutely adored Reggie.

Yeah, the sex scenes are lovely. It's also a lot of affection. So yeah I liked it.

IDK how to content tag it but, content warning for
whorephobia from antagonists as the various conflicts start to resolve
