3 "HIDE THE NOODLE TIME" STARS.
Ahh! I was so excited about this one, I wait like forever for it and now that is over I feel like it was not enough.
Loved the two first books but this one was a little flat. I was expecting so much more for KING & Dime piece ending that I feel a little disappointed.
YAMADA was the one who made this book for me!! That MADAFAKA is the shit and I LOVE him.
Long story short? It was an ok reading for me. That's all.

I m a lil disappointed
I was really lookin forward to this book it's the last in the series an I was dyin for more of Margo an Alexander an they were really great but the story was a lil meh I expected a lot more the first an second books were so good they were so hot together an the story was really good with loads of drama but this book just lacked in drama
This book picked up from the last book an Margo had got horrible news an she needed more Alexander more than ever an to her surprise he was there they both had a lot of mixed feels towards each other but they were getting more attracted to each other an it was goin to b hard for Alexander to pull away from her an get what he wanted cause Margo had got under his skin
Again these to characters were so hot together they have from the very start with loads of angry sex which was so hot an it was the same in this book just without the angry part like I said they needed each other in this book feels have got stronger they r great together but I was a lil pissed in parts with Alexander the way he carried on with Diem she is a strong woman an he treated her like a child I know he as brought her up an as alway protected her but he went a lil far in this an it did annoy me a lot
Like I said I was a lil disappointed with this book but I still luvd the way it was written I m a fan of the author she really good and like I said it really enjoyed the first to books but the last just had something missing xxx

Boring. Had hoped for a bit more since it's the last book in this short series, but we get what we get.

Dirty Royals is now Alexander and Margo dealing with their marriage and Margo's father death. Alex still wants her company but he has some ambiguities feelings how he will do that.
There isn't much. Mostly their saying:
Alexander been an asshole because he does not want his baby sister dating Jack and quickly ist ok because he one sec to lose Margo. Margo now is in charge of Buchanan Industries and trying to forget Alexander still they are after one month back together.
One thing that botters me was Yamada third person intensify in this last book. I like the guy but every time was getting old.

I stumbled upon this series when I was buying up the Black Falcon Series in paperback for an upcoming event. I knew that I would instantly like it from the blurb of book one and admit I devoured the first two that night, hours after one-clicking. I waited patiently for the last installment.
I really enjoyed this series. I think the only thing I could have wanted was if it was longer, but I know that with romances, the build up is the journey and so once we get to the moment of conflict resolution, the ending is often swift. It’s just that I always want to spend more time basking in the joy after all that hard work. So with the final installment, I wanted to bask in it for hours and it all went so quickly.
But ASMF is another stellar romance series by this author and I loved it enough that I had to snatch up paperback copies in addition to my ebooks just for my collection.

Review by Lisa Kane
I have been anxiously awaiting the last installment of Michelle Valentine's A Sexy Manhattan Fairytale series. Margo Buchanan has just lost her father, is drowning in grief and things between her and Alexander King are unresolved. Can he be trusted? Is he still hell bent on destroying her father's company? He knows she loves him, but what are his feelings?
I think this last book really gives insight into the Naughty King's thoughts and intentions. His closed off heart is at odds with his head. Once tell him he has to do what's best for his own company even if that would destroy Margo's. But he knows that he would kill his relationship with her. She is so vulnerable right now and it wouldn't take much for her to put up walls again and leave him in the dust.
If things weren't complicated enough, King has to deal with his sister Diem and his best friend Jack's relationship. He knows all about Jack and his player ways. Hell, they both have treated women in the same way. Enjoy great sex and move on. But his sister isn't letting King tell her who she can and can't have and it's driving him nuts. Nuts enough to screw up royally!
Dirty Royals is a great wrap up to the Manhattan Fairytale series. Yamada (King's crazy, over the top friend) keeps things lively and never fails to shock. He's a great buffer for all the angst and heart ache going on and let's just say he's the hit at a wedding scene towards the end. Loved this series!

Dirty Royals is the third and final installment of the A Sexy Manhattan Fairytale series. I have been impatiently waiting for this conclusion and I loved it!
“What if he’s just using me to get to Buchanan Industries? What if I don’t mean as much to him as he goes to me?”
Since Margo and Alexander entered into their agreement, things have been going well. A little too well—and they both realize that they have a lot on the line at this point. When a family emergency occurs for Margo, she is shocked when Alexander is by her side through the entire thing.
“I have to live knowing I’ve destroyed the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
But will he allow his feelings to come through? Or will his pride win out?
You will have to read this series to find out. It is hot, sexy, fun, and angsty. The secondary cast of characters are amazing, and Yamanda made this book yet again. He is hilarious! I loved this entire series and look forward to more books from Ms. Valentine! ~ Tiffany, 4 stars

Dirty Royals is a hot, hilarious, and heartwarming romantic comedy that casts a swoon-worthy spell from the very first page, enchanting until the end. Achingly addictive. Laugh-out-loud funny. Super sexy. Wickedly wonderful. Michelle Valentine makes magic in the sexy and seductive Dirty Royals, a must-read roller coaster of a romance that touches all of the feels along the riveting ride.
Holy bookgasm! The Naughty King and his Feisty Princess are back and better than ever!!! The Hangover meets Bridesmaids meets Pretty Woman is one masterful mix of a story. A saga that is the guiltiest of pleasures. A decadent delight. An achingly-addictive adventure.
This achingly-addictive adventure kept me laughing and lusting the whole time while the feels…oh did they flow. Anger. Angst. Humor. Heat. Happiness. My emotions spun around like a merry-go-round. Dirty Royals is a guilty pleasure of a read, one that is so delightfully good that you’ll devour it with rapid speed though you want to savor its oh-so-sweet taste.
Margo Buchanan is heavily mourning her father’s passing and, Alexander King, her husband and sometimes frenemy, is left to pick up the pieces of her heart. Alexander reveals a rare compassionate side and Margo is grateful for her solid rock of a man in more ways than one. Lines have blurred so much in their relationship that it’s hard to tell what’s real.
“I just never dreamed in a million years the one person who would be my rock in life would be the Naughty King.”
I can’t help but hope that Alexander’s feelings towards Margo in her time of mourning are genuine and he’s not using her vulnerability to yank her father’s company away. Alexander is conflicted: the company versus a chance at love.
“No matter how I feel about her—how much I crave the taste of her on my tongue—being with her will end.”
Speaking of tasting, the Naughty King and his Feisty Princess rule the bedroom kingdom.
“You are always so ready for me. So wet. I can’t wait to sink my cock inside you and show you how good I can make you feel.”
Oh. My. HOT! Alexander’s delicious and dirty talk...they solder and slay me. He is pure perfection.
While this couple’s sex life is off-the-charts combustible, their hearts are invested almost as much though neither will admit it yet.
Yamada…he is the wise one. He knows that Alexander, despite his denial, has feelings for his pretend wife.
“I know without a doubt that Yamada was right about me. I do have feelings for Margo Buchanan.”
Yamada makes this story. He is the icing on the comedy cake. I picture Mr. Chow from The Hangover as Yamada reading the lines and continue to laugh like I’m at a comedy club.
Four words—but read in Chow’s voice—make for quite the humor.
“Madafakas! Where you been?”
Yamada for all of his wise cracks and playboy ways is part fortune teller and relationship guru. He knows Margo cares for Alexander like he does her in their crazy and complex relationship.
“Dime Piece…she’s the real deal and cares for King. Yamada can tell when it comes to matters of the heart. Yamada never wrong—always right. Yamada a smart madafaka.”
Margo thinks that Alexander’s caring and concern for her could be the real deal. Her feelings for him are hovering near the love zone.
“Things feel like they’ve changed drastically between Alexander and me ever since we’ve made the deal to dupe everyone into believing we’re actually in love. Hell, it’s to the point where I’m not sure if we’re actually pretending anymore.”
Lines are so blurred that the relationship feels real. Feelings flow. Love lingers in the air. Then Alexander commits one king-sized mistake that could wreck the marriage just as it was starting to feel like the real deal.
“The more attached I allow myself to get to Margo, the worse it will be for both of use when this all ends. She’s one addiction I’m going to have a hell of a time breaking free from.”
This tantalizing and touching tale, grabbed me, gripping me HARD and I could not become unglued from this mesmerizing masterpiece. Dirty Royals is PURE GOLD—bright and rich in humor, heat, and heart. I laughed. I lusted. I loathed. I loved. A LOT.
Dirty Royals ended perfectly though I’m still panting for more. The Manhattan Fairytale series is over but I have an ache that won’t leave. My addiction knows no boundaries. The only cure is more of this sizzling and snort-laughing saga. This better-than-soap opera saga…GAH! Serious book crack. My hangover may rival The Hangover. This fairytale quickly became my happily book ever after.

What started out as a business deal – an agreement of sorts - between Alexander King and Margo Buchanan has now turned into so much more, but trust is not something that comes easily to either one of them, which complicates an already fragile relationship and forces King to choose between his feisty princess and a company that is his father’s legacy and his own personal passion.
From the beginning of Naughty King, what has happened between Alexander and Margo has been anything but business. Their attraction…their chemistry…their banter has always been on a personal level; they’ve just both done their best to hide their feelings and keep telling themselves that it’s all about getting the job done no matter the cost.
But somewhere along the way, feelings of love started to overpower the rational, business side of both Alexander and Margo, turning their fake marriage into something that neither want to give up even though King is torn between what’s best for his company and what’s best for himself.
Dirty Royals is the conclusion of Alexander and Margo’s story, and it’s the book that truly sheds light on why Alexander is the way that he is with women and why the risk is too high for him to give himself fully to Margo even though his feelings for her are real. Readers have come to expect King to be the dirty bastard that he’s been, and while he does get himself into quite a bit of trouble, we also see the determination that he has to make things right.
The series wouldn’t be anything that it is without the crazy, madafaka Yamada. He may be crass and way over the top, but he has a heart of gold, and he’ll do anything to help his friends. King and Dime Piece are his family, so he’ll stop at nothing to make things right, and that’s why I can’t get enough of him.
I love that Michelle Valentine put all three stories under the title Dirty Deals because that title carries multiple connotative meanings for Alexander and Margo and over the course of their story, readers experience every single one of them in all their filthy glory!

"Not all men are bastards like me. I'm a rare breed."
Alexander King. Oh, Alexander King.
How I missed you and your assholeish ways. But that's the thing, I still miss it even after reading this third and last part to the series trilogy. Don't get me wrong, you were still alpha and broody and all things the Naughty King is known for. However, there was a little something missing from the first two books that was not in this one. Maybe it's me. Maybe I just want you to stay wickedly charming all the time. But alas, you bent and knelt before Margo Buchanan and her stunning charm and beauty. It happens even to the most strongest of men. But you were still strong in other ways, and that's okay too.
Overall, I really, REALLY enjoyed this series. Putting all the novellas together makes one full length novel. One that is ready to be devoured in one shot: A little Alexander and Margo, smidge of his best friend Jack Sutherland, dash of his baby sister Diem and a WHOLE lot of Yamada, makes for a delicious plate of naughty, dirty and royally yummy goodness.
"Perhaps, it's possible that this stone heart inside my chest is capable of feeling love again."

If Naughty King was dinner and Feisty Princess was foreplay than Dirty Royals was very much the main event. Alexander and Margot are married, their chemistry off the charts, the competition to outwit each other continues in the background, but in the wake of news of Margot's father's sudden death all thoughts of hostile take overs and backdoor wheeling's and dealings are pushed aside. In the final instalment of this aptly named sexy Manhattan fairytale Valentine delves deeper into the connection that originally started as openly hostile and animalistic lust.
Alexander's past comes hurtling back, dredging up painful memories and reinforcing his belief in love and it fleeting nature, his relationships are closely guarded, the image portrayed to the world at large was carefully constructed, Margot slowly breaking through the walls he built to keep his heart safe. The more Alexander struggles with what he knows to be the smart business decision and in the process destroying any chance of a future with a woman that has come to mean more to him than he ever anticipated, the more he has to decide the kind of man he wants to be.
"I'm falling in love with you, Alexander. I want to make this work with you, but I have to know I can trust you."
Margot has led a semi charmed life, loving parents, an opulent childhood, despite all the trappings of a great life Margot knows a thing or two about heartbreak, despite her snappy one liners and resting bitch face, there's a beautiful warmth to her, and openness, a willingness to trust and even love again that makes her so much stronger than the Alexander's of the world, it was singlehandedly the thing that made me adore her, made me cheer loudly for her, made me steadfastly and resolutely stand in her corner, in all the ways Alexander was the naughty King of this series, Margot was the unrivaled Queen.
"I love you, too. I have for a while now, but I was scared. Getting my heart broken again. I tried to keep my distance from you because I knew you had the power to destroy me."
Fast paced, emotionally driven, Valentine once again captivates the readers attention, while the conclusion to this series focuses more solidly on the bond between Alexander and Margot, as well as the bonds between sister and brother, between mother and daughter, examines the ties that bind and those that have fallen away. Sweetly romantic at times, heartbreakingly real, my only complaint was that the final instalment felt too rushed for me, I wanted more in the final chapters, I wanted more of the love connection and all that followed. A sweet and sexy conclusion to a fun and dirty serial, Dirty Deals packs a punch.

this has become one of my top favorite new adult series. I fell in love with the characters and there actions. but I feel like this third novella could have been better. it seemed rushed. but the writing is beautiful.

One star off for being a serial. I've completely forgotten the story from months earlier when I read part 2. Story was average but Yamada made the story fun!!

By this third book, there's not a hint of spite or hate between Alex and Margo. Their scam marriage quickly turns into something very real. Something neither of them wants to admit or acknowledge.
But the Naughty King of Manhattan is a wicked man and his pride may just get in the way of their happy ever after.
The storyline was just a touch predictable but I still very much enjoyed it. By the end Yamada totally stole the show, he was such a great character!

LOVED this mini series:) My one complaint and it is a HUGE ass pet peeve of mine....I WANT and NEED an Epilogue on my characters. Yes, the ending was perfect for that moment BUT I would have liked to see more of them down the line:( PS Also wished there was a story about Jack and Diem too!
All in all, this author usually never disappoints me!

Finally we get to see if Margo and Alexander’s relationship can make it or if it will crash and burn to the ground. Dirty Royals is a fast paced and angsty finish to the Naughty King and Feisty Princess‘s story!
Dirty Royals picks up right where Feisty Princess ended, and it story line keeps getting better and better. I so wanted to hate both of these characters in this series, but couldn’t help but fall in love with them. Margo is strong yet vulnerable, and just wanting to save her dad’s legacy while finding love as well, she thinks she and Alexander can finally have that, and at first everything is perfect, and then it falls horribly apart.
Alexander doesn’t know how to handle the things he feels for Margo, and makes some pretty boneheaded decisions in this book where I wanted to strangle him, but he definitely makes up for it in the end. Not only does he royally mess up with Margo, but also his sister Diem! He let his pride and everything else stop him from seeing what was right in front of him all along. His sisters happiness, and the love of his life.
Watching these two finally figure out what they meant to one another was one crazy ride in this book, but I loved how it all ended for them. Through in some of Yamada’s crazy talk and you have one fabulous ending to an amazing series. I am sad to say goodbye to these characters, but everything ended how it should. Michelle A. Valentine has a way of writing extraordinary characters that you can’t help but fall in love with! If you haven’t picked up this series yet, I highly recommend picking it up now since the story is complete and Margo and Alexander’s story is one that needs to be read asap!

Please bear in mind this is the third installment of the serial and may therefore contain spoilers for earlier parts of the story.
Will Alexander confess his growing feelings to Margo??
How will Margo cope with the tragic events at the end of Feisty Princess??
What does this all mean for the business merger??
What dastardly deeds is Jess planning??
What madcap lunacy is Yamada going to get up to next?? - damn I want him to have his own story :)
Following the unexpected events at the end of Feisty Princess Alexander and Margo grow closer yet there is still the business aspect casting a shadow over them leaving their relationship lacking a sense of security.
Alexander is very self-aware but in a negative fashion, the insight into his upbringing and previous relationship provide insight into his emotional barriers. He lacks optimism and compromise where relationships are concerned based on past experience the most damage caused by the abandonment of his mother and the viper known as Jess. His overprotective older brother routine creates far more problems than necessary and causes a deep fissure between not only his relationship with his sister but also with Margo.
Margo is a strong, independent woman having to navigate her grief as well as the increased tension and strain her relationship with Alexander has caused.
Opening yourself up to someone else after being preciously emotionally damaged can be terrifying but ultimately the reward far outweighs the risks. I really liked how the story played out within Dirty Royals bringing A Sexy Manhattan Fairytale to a dreamy conclusion with a little help from a madcap fairy godfather in the form of Yamada ;)

This is the third and final book in the Sexy Manhattan Fairytales series. I really liked this series except for the Yamada character, I felt he was too much like Mr Chow from The Hangover and not in a good way. He was just too over the top and totally not believable as a college educated businessman. This book picks up where the first one left off, Margo and Alexander are in Vegas and they've just woken up to realize they got drunk the night before and got married. Margo points out to Alexander that she now has him by the balls and is determined to use it to save her Father's company. Not wanting his board of directors to think he is irresponsible for marrying an almost stranger he proposes a deal to Margo. If she goes along with the marriage and pretends that they are happy and in love he will not go after her Father's company. Pretending means she has to move in with him and pretty soon they're having sex (because its convenient) and before long there might actually be real feelings involved.

I don’t know about you guys but I have been waiting like a crazy person for the conclusion of Margo and Alexander’s story. It started off so very good. I do love a book that is enemies to lovers to friends. Haha. I guess that is how you would describe it because this third book they seem to be putting a little trust and faith in each other and things seem to be finally coming together for these two while everything else is falling apart around them.
“I won’t hurt you. I promise. You can trust me with your heart. Can I trust you with mine?”
As usual Yamada stole the show with his funny antics and sweet heart. This one was funny, angsty, and sweet. Personally my favorite was the first in this series but this last one was a close second. These books are definitely worth a read so pick them up!

I was pulled right into this short story. The story has laughs, pain, naughty fun, and heartbreak. There are three parts to this series so be prepared.
If you have not read the below I would recommend reading those books(s) first
Naughty King (A Sexy Manhattan Fairytale #1)
Feisty Princess (A Sexy Manhattan Fairytale #2)
This is third part of Margo and King’s story. One evil plan. One lie. That is all it takes to ruin everything. Margo learns the truth and tries to figure out where to go from here. Will love turn to hate? Or will they be able to overcome all the lies and secrets to build something solid? Can they come back from the hate to get back to the love?
I felt I was able to connect with the characters and the story was a great read.
I highly recommend this book, this series, and this author.

Cocky, funny, kinky, sexy and totally hilarious!
Once upon a time, a Naughty King, a Feisty Princess and Yamada, the wise madafaka…
« Make sure you scrub those balls. Want them nice and clean when Dime Piece has them in her mouth later on. »
« Yamada! » My sister scolds him, causing me to laugh. « That was crude. »
« What? Don’t act like King and Margo aren’t freaky as fuck. Yamada thinking ball licking is mild compared to what they do when they play hide the pickle. »
This third book is the too short conclusion of the Sexy Manhattan Fairytale series by the always surprising Michelle Valentine.
I found myself grinning from ear to ear every time madafaka Yamada was in the picture.
Bravo.

It's now or never. It's time for the Naughty Kind to get his Feisty Princess. And...did he? I guess you are going to have to read all 3 books to find out. I will say how much I LOVE this series. It was just a fun, laugh out loud, sexy read. Michelle created some great characters that I will not soon forget, but the best was Yamada. Oh my goodness! he is the best. I love Michelle. I love everything she writes. She never disappoints. Take a chance on getting to know the Naughty King, you will love him...I promise.

The ending was everything I hope for and then some. I love King and Margo. Yamada is the perfect friend for King and now "Dime Piece". He did what he did and now will always be one of my favorite supporting characters.
Dear King,
You did what you did and now you have learned from it. Don't f**k up again.
Love, Heather
One of my favorite series from Michelle. Don't miss it! I love it. <3

Great ending to the story of our Naughty King and Feisty Princess....I would love to get Diem and Jack's story...hint hint...winkie winkie. Yamada keeps the mood light with his antics at getting these two to stay together....but sometimes fear takes over and it can ruin it all. Diem and Yamada help Alexander realize that it's ok to let someone into his heart and love....Margo just has to trust...thank you Michelle Valentine for the opportunity to read their story.

A good ending to the series. They fought until the end and ended it in a style that worked for the King and Margo. They had their support with them to the end and even got to put one adversary in their place at a time when it was needed. The alternating POVs made the story more interesting and Michelle Valentine's writing style is one that gets you hooked and keeps you involved until the last chapter.

Margo ends the last book with devastating news however Alexander knows what's she going through and he is going to help her through this tough time. Before long they both realize they want to try and make a go out of the marriage. Everything is great until it's not . Margo looses all trust in Alexander and he is at a lose on how to win her back. With a little meddling from someone things just might be savaged. Some hot sex scenes. Fantastic ending.

Two stars for Yamada
The rest is rubbish. Poorly thought out and roughly edited crap. And we all know that Yamada is just a really tacky stereotype that was already done via Mr. Chow in The Hangover, right? However, I can't help but like Yamada; he's the only reason I managed to finish this novella.
