I should be ashamed of what I’m typing, but the online dating profile did ask for my dirtiest fantasy.
And this is mine.
Not something sweet or safe. I don’t want candlelight and compliments. I want to be used. Stripped bare. Told I’m a filthy little thing…and then worshipped for it.
It’s twisted. It’s wrong.
But Desire is for people like me—kink first, no apologies.
So here I am.
I’ll be the good girl who begs to be bad. All I need now is the man who’ll make me say it.
Natalia Lourose writes angsty romance about broken people figuring out life and finding love along the way. Television and far too much smut as a teenager left her obsessed with dark-haired bad boys who are moody and wear leather jackets. Tucked away in her writing nook with a dog at her feet, two cats on her keyboard, and husband yelling at the computer – she is always writing something, or trying to.
She loves interacting with fans and fellow book lovers on social media!
What do you desire? Are you willing to beg for it?
If you are, this novella is for you.
I’ve been hooked on the Dirty Desires series and this is another wonderful addition. It’s spicy, kinky, and oh so good 🫦
While this read was very light on the plot it still felt authentic. I liked how relatable Tess was. From her desires but uncertainty to the acceptance and trust she finds in Colt, it’s beautiful. I enjoyed the dynamic that developed between Tess and Colt. They left me begging for more 🥵
This isn’t a guide to BDSM but it was written with care. And aftercare wasn’t an afterthought. I appreciate when an author does their research.
Don’t be ashamed of who you are and the things you desire. Embrace them!
very quick, very smutty read about not denying yourself your true desires and finding someone who supports your wants rather than belittling them. Makes up for the limited plot with the abundance of spice.

She said “degrade me” and he said “say less.” This book was all fantasy, low on plot, high on steam and I read it in one sitting with my jaw on the floor.
It’s not just about kink tho. It’s about being seen, accepted, and owning your wildest desires without shame. That part? Chef’s kiss.
Was some of it unrealistic? Totally. Would I recommend it? Also yes. Just maybe not in public
A short, steamy Novella that is high on smut, low on plot!
Tess has hidden fantasies that she's afraid to admit to herself, let alone tell anyone else about. But she's tired of not having her needs met, so she goes on the Desire App to find someone who matches her kinks and can offer what she needs.
Enter Colt, dominant, in control and knows how to talk dirty!! He makes Tess feel seen and comfortable in her own skin, guiding her into a bdsm type relationship. It was hard for her to finally accept her desires and found the courage to ask for what it. Colt helped her learn how to let go and submit, and I loved how he explained that aftercare was super important. Because of their amazing relationship and trust in each other, the spicy scenes are steamy - you may need a fan around!
I read this book in one go! I'm def going to read the previous books in this series.

She dreamed it. He delivered it. And let’s just say, the club? Not your average Friday night 😏💋
For me, this book isn’t just about desire. It’s about acceptance. About owning the things that make you feel alive and never apologizing for them. It’s not just about pleasure. It’s about embracing the parts of yourself you’ve been told to hide and finally feeling seen. It was about finding freedom in your truth, and someone who sees all of you 🖤
A short, fast-paced read that I finished in one sitting.
A 5☆ read because this book made my imagination blush 😳 The heat🌶 level? A woman brave enough to admit her wildest fantasy and a man bold enough to bring it to life. No safe word could save you 😮💨💦
⚠️🚨 Do NOT read this in public unless you enjoy blushing in front of strangers 😳🥵
Thank you for letting me step into this world early. Reminding us that desire isn’t shameful and that being seen for who we are is a kind of love too 🖤
Holy mother of dirty talk Batman!!! This was sooooo hot!!!! About a woman who decides she’s done hiding, done hiding from what she wants, done pretending she doesn’t want it, working on being done with feeling ashamed of her needs…. And Desire(a special kink app matching people based on their kinks and needs) and Colt (a Dom who wants to have an honest and meaningful relationship with someone who wants what he has to give) are here to give her what she needs.🥰🔥🥰🔥.
This was decadently erotic, exploring BDSM in a safe way, and showing us a piece of a journey to self-exploration. Very well written and edited, easy to read. I loved it! I only wish there was a tiny bit more of this couples HEA. It was left a tiny bit open imo, more of a HFN. I think it was meant to be more of a dive into the beginning of this couples journey, which it did a great job with.

Beg Me is a fast, filthy little novella that delivers all the heat. 🔥
DESIRE is a dating app for the not-so-vanilla crowd—where your deepest, darkest fantasy gets matched with someone who’s dying to make it real.
Tess wants to be used. Degraded. Turned into a toy for someone else’s pleasure. Enter Colt—who doesn’t just give her what she craves, but shows her she’s not broken for wanting it. He gives her a kind of connection most people never even taste… raw, honest, and real.
This one? A short, dirty hit that lingers. 💖
Things to know
novella, BDSM, kinky dating app, praise, dominant/submissive power exchange, verbal degradation and humiliation, praise kink, impact play, orgasm control/denial and forced overstimulation, public play, rope bondage, light breath play, hair pulling, cum play, and objectification/ownership language.
This is a very short novella that is high in steam, but very low in plot. This can easily be read in an evening. Tess decides to be very brave in a fetish app where she states that she wants to be degraded and more. I must say that this is certainly a work in fiction as putting what she did in an app and actually meeting these individuals is downright risky in my opinion. I particularly didn't care for Colt either. I think his punishments weren't fair and he pushed things to the Nth degree where she was setup for failure in my opinion. Others may enjoy more though.
Natalie Lourose respectfully I could kiss you. I didn’t know I needed a book like this in my life. The spicy in this book was perfect. Colt was perfect!! Man, he’s so dreamy. I don’t care where can I find a guy like him. I really feel Tess when it comes to the things so was going through. They were literally perfect for each other. I kinda bumped that I’m just now learned about this series. But you best believe that I’ll be reading the other two. Especially, if they were as good as this one.

This story delivers on what you are looking for in a healthy Dom/sub environment. He respects her and accepts her, having no experience in the culture. The way he teaches and exposes her to the lifestyle was a perfect balance of delicious spice and a dominant testing boundaries in all the right ways. They are both strong characters in their own ways, and I thoroughly enjoyed reading their story. It ends in an HEA for now, which is very fitting for the length.

Tess - tired of hiding and ready to make a step in an open and honest direction. Colt, ready to give Tess everything that she desires and more along with making her feel not broken by it. Love the premise that there's a dating about BDSM style in order to match peoples wants and desires in a safe manner. I very much enjoyed the heat and the peak into what the lifestyle may look like. Great quick read.
Beg Me by Natalia Lourose After a few glasses of wine, she went to the Desire app at two AM. She submits and then sees matching in progress. After going through the messages, she comes to Colt and his picture. Her girlfriends will not let her chicken out. This is a great story, and I loved it, and highly recommend this book. It is about deep, dark secrets we all keep. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. This is my honest opinion.
3rd book by this author and I enjoyed it much better than the first & even a little better than the 2nd. Each book definitely got better! This one was repetitive with some phrases at times so much so that I wondered if my kindle lost its place, but chapter 8 made me sit up in my seat and be like “ok sir”. These aren’t really a series, but rather standalones that can be read alone or in any order with the same premise, idea, themes, and easter egg character references. Quick little smutty read.
The FMC is searching for what she wants. The MMC can probably deliver. This story was beyond exciting. This short story was intense not only as the reader, but for the two main characters. The spice was out of this world! I loved this story and want more of it. I would definitely recommend this short story.
I absolutely loved this story and the romance in this book is pure fire! I was consumed and could not put it down. This author is one of my top new favorites and I will be reading everything I can get my hands on. Definitely a must read if you love romance!

This was a sęxy quick read and it was fun! I loved the characters, especially Colt! That man is fiře! The writing was great! It kept it real with her emotions going all over the place. The way Colt could just read her was what every girl dreams of! I would definitely read more from this author!
I wanted to a short read with lots of steam and this book delivered. Although it was short, there was a plot, and the characters were worth reading about. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Beg Me is a very quick and spicy read. I enjoyed it so much as a palate cleanser between two longer books I’m reading. It was an interesting concept with the dating app, and I found myself immediately sucked into the story. Even though it’s a novella, it doesn’t feel rushed. It has plenty of spice, too! Overall it was enjoyable and I look forward to more from Natalia Lourose!
* I received this book as an advanced reader copy. My review is my own.
Dynamique duo of Colt and Tess. I’ve loved them so much. The way Tess worked her way up and trusted Colt. Gosh this novella is perfectly written. Light with good amount of spice. You’ll be wanting to re read it once finished. I’ve enjoyed myself. It was beautifully written and easy to understand.
Book three in the Dirty Desires series. Tess has desires and needs but is scared to say them out loud. She signs up on an app. She tells them what she wants, fingers cross. Colt message her back and he shows her everything she wants. All her fantasy comes alive. Fast paced but love it.
It was a quick, easy read. Definitely steamy so if you are looking for something fast paced and steamy, this is perfect for you. Even with it being short (about an hour read or so), there was still a plot.
Very interesting concept for a book - I was a little skeptical at the beginning, but that sure didn't last - it was really a great book. Loved the "app" and how Tess struggled with her answers in the app and with the "jerks" who responded. And then Colt! Great HOT book!
This is a shorter story but nothing is lost in the way it unfolds, the feelings, the absolute surrender given to another. Dynamite, an explosion on every page as you step into a world you've only dreamed about and now you are begging for more.
A very short novella, all about finding what you are looking for in a dating app. Tess wants more and bravely decides to try for it. The results are beyond her imagination, and maybe yours?
