I’ve always been good about keeping my eyes away from my best friend’s sister. But it gets harder every day now that she’s on tour with us. A brush of a hand. A laugh that reaches her eyes. I can’t have her and for some reason that makes me want her more. We can keep it a secret. The late nights. The stolen kisses. But someone is threatening her. And all my secrets will come to light if I step in and stop it. She thinks I’m her knight in shining armor. But I’m the villain in this story.

This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Tori Fox!
Dirty Secrets is the third book in the Saints & Sinners series and tells the story of Knox and Saylor.
When I read the first few pages of this book, I knew Dirty Secrets was going to be a wild ride. The trigger warning included rape, sexual assault, suicide, violence, drugs and more, and the first chapter was already really spicy… Tori Fox did some crazy things with this book, and I was here for it! Dirty Secrets was such a good and addictive read, I really enjoyed reading Know and Saylor’s story.
She thinks I’m some knight in shining armor. Ever since that night. But she should know that is far from the truth. I’m the villain in my own story. I don’t need to be the villain in hers.
Dirty Secrets is about Knox and Saylor. Knox is Saylor’s brother’s best friend, he’s part of a band, he’s 11 years older than Saylor, and he’s Saylor’s biggest crush. Saylor’s had a crush on Knox for years, but what she doesn’t know is that she’s Knox’ darkest desire. In Dirty Secrets, they slowly start to become more than friends, but they have to keep it a secret… How long will they last?
"Fuck, Saylor. You’ve always been my favorite dream and my darkest desire.’
Dirty Secrets was such an amazing read, the spice was so good, and I couldn’t not love Know and Saylor together! This book has many tropes, and if you love one or more of them, then I highly recommend this book. The Romance tropes are Rock Star Romance, Brother’s Best Friend, Age Gap, Forbidden Love, and Dom Men. I really loved reading Dirty Secrets, and I cannot wait to read the next book in the Saint & Sinners series, Wicked Lies.
Wilder and Knox are BFF's as well as band members of Saints & Sinners. They are known for sharing women and partying hard. The one rule between them is that Wilder's sister Saylor is off limits.
This story was full of tea. The title is Dirty Secrets and boy were these secrets FILTHY.
Knox is a dominant and likes to have control in everything. He has always noticed Saylor but kept his distance adhering to the Bro Code.
Saylor has lived Knox since she was a child. When she suffered a traumatic event at the age of 16; Knox is the one who found her and took care of her wounds. Her feelings have been growing ever since.
Knox and Saylor was SPICY!!! Knox tried to fight his feelings but Saylor made it hard. Both were tortured souls who had flawed and traumatic past but they loved each other through it.
This book is full of triggers: Rape, Loss of Child, Drug Use, Self Harm, PTSD and Murder.
Everybody has secrets. When Wilder is the stalkers next target to receive threatening notes, secrets began to resurface and not only is Knox and Saylor outed but so is Saylor's devastating past and when the past comes back for a repeat she hopes she makes it out alive.
Secrets are out, Truths are revealed testing Loyalties and Friendships. With everything on the line, some secrets are better left alone.......Or are they?

I especially love it when authors had real situations and are able to create an emotion out of the reader. And well that was exactly what this book did for me. These characters all went through series of traumatic events and were able to overcome them and love each other. Definitely going to go back and read the first couple of books!! • {ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀs} In this book we are introduced to Knox & Saylor. Knox had some very questionable things that he did in the past and well in the present as well. There are definitely dark aspects in what he did but guess what?? Saylor really really liked that about him. I definitely think he would do anything for her. Saylor, my god she went through such horrible things and I’m so proud that she was able to finally love not only herself but others. Her being around other people was definitely the right thing for her. • {sᴘɪᴄᴇ} this one guysssw holy moly!!!
Wow!! The suspense wasn’t something I was expecting but what a great added layer to one hot rock romance book that was a big page turner for me. After what happened to Saylor, her brother Wilder, has her go tour with his band Saints and Sinners hoping to keep her safe. Saylor has grown up crushing on her big brother’s best friend and bandmate, Knox. The thing is Knox is eleven years older, shares women with her brother and is still hung up on a woman he had loved but who is now gone.
The secrets in this book will have you guessing so many things as to who is doing what and just what can come of Knox and Saylor’s relationship once truths are known. To say this book was hot is an understatement as well. I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for more Saints and Sinners to follow.
Knox and Saylor he has secrets; she is his best friend’s sister. But Saylor is now on tour with Saints and Sinners, and the two might be unable to fight the attraction that has been in the background for years. There is a lingering threat, from her brother to Knox and Saylor from another. Lots of feels and explosive chemistry.
Thank you to the Author for the advanced copy; this is my voluntary review.
This is Knox and Saylor's book. They have known each other for years and Saylor has always sort of had a crush on Knox. She knew that he was off limits because he's her brother's best friend. She also known that he's not always walked on the right side of the law. She knows that he has shared women with her brother and she knows that he has a dominant side. She sees all of that and she doesn't care: she still wants to be with him. When Saylor's life is endangered, she goes on tour with the band and is now around Knox all of the time. Since her brother can't seem to not bring girls back to the bus they are sharing, she spends a lot of time with Knox on his bus. While he initially tries to resist, they eventually are carrying on a secret affair. When events accelerate and Saylor is in physical danger, will Knox come to see that Saylor is his second chance at love?
I love the story of Knox and Saylor and how they both find healing in each other. They are both damaged, dark people with back story that is not pretty, but they can be honest with each other. They understand each other on a level no one else does, which makes them perfect for each other. I am left with more questions than answers about Carter, though.
When circumstances force Saylor to join the band on tour, she knew this was her chance. The man she has had a crush on since she was young would not be able to run from her now. There's just one problem... well a few. Not only is Knox 11 years older and her brother's best friend, he's also determined they will never be together.
Knox has to find a way to resist the one who could destroy his heart. She know nothing of his past or his extracurricular activities. Then one night she finally pushes to far and he gives into his base desire and kisses her. He tells her that it can't happen again. She’s going to show him she knows about his secrets, and she's all in.
Yes, yes, a thousand percent yes! I absolutely loved everything about Knox and his "Saylor Moon." The heat and spice is ghost pepper worthy. These two had me sweating and swooning. I can't wait for Wilder's story!
An age-gap, forbidden romance in which you are going to flip your mind over.
Saylor and Knox don't have a simple connection, romance or lives. Each is bring scars and secrets to the table. She has lived a 1,000 lives and he's had a 1,000 lovers.
He knows how to make a woman beg and submit. She has had a crush on her brothers' older best friend forever.
When it comes to light we has readers will see stars. It's intense and hard to put down. Get ready!!!! I received an ARC for an honest and voluntarily review.
There was nothing mentioned that the first 2 books should've been read before this one. So I obviously didn't get the full story. I knew it was a series, but it looks liked each book was a standalone - could be read without the others, but that was not the case. Each book in the series is about a different couple, but they all interconnect. There is a bigger story going on throughout the series that has something taking place or getting resolved in each book. This is the fist book I've read by this author and even though I was missing some of the story, I was able to still enjoy the couples actual story.
Their story was short. There was barely any restraint. He said no like once then kissed her. Told her they can't be together then they were together right away. I like my stories with a little more tension and buildup than what was written.
Saylor is so strong. She had been through literal hell and came out on the other side. Although its not detailed, rape is mentioned ( the author does like Trigger Warnings at the beginning). Wilder - her brother - is super overbearing. Apparently they had crappy parents. They mention it in the book, but its talked about like its something that happened previously in another book.
I still enjoyed reading it though, even if some of the things happened in another book.
I'm no stranger to Tori Fox, and this story did not disappoint. This is the third book in the series, and while it is a standalone from the couple's perspective, the bigger story arc begins in book one. This was my favorite so far in this series. Saylor and Knox both had dark pasts that wove together over time. Saylor endured a past full of darkness, and she desperately sought the light. Knox gave her a glimpse of it. She, however, broke through to let the shadows of the past bring the colors of the present to life. Every time Knox said she was strong, she truly was. Tori did an excellent job covering past trauma. Knox had even more to grow and figure out. I think watching Saylor break through her darkness gave him the courage to come to terms with his. I really enjoyed Marley and Saylor together in this story. It was great to have that moment that Tori gave us with the two of them. There are a ton of TWs, so please, please check them out before going in. The long-standing story arc is still going, and I assume it will progress over the next two books. Knox and Saylor's plots were handled well and closed up so that I wasn't left with questions. I wanted more, of course, but what reader wouldn't when they have a story you love? I highly recommend starting with Book 1.
When you read the title you may think that this is going to get some story of secret kinky desires or something, but what happens in this is much more intense than that and I couldn't read fast enough to know what was going to happen, Saylor and Knox have been through some things that were intense, too say the least and were able to find love and heal one another to forget the past. They can understand one another like no one else. They finally got the HEA they deserved.
There are many TWs: ["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>
This was an Age gap, BDSM and best friends sister Trope.
Spice level : 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ This was Knox's and Saylors story. As we know Knox is the silent one. Saylors is his Best friend Wilder's sister and too young for him. He knows she has always had a crush on him and he has had an attraction to her but can't go there. Also he can never love again because of his past.
Saylor is sooo strong. It hurt to read what happened to her but gosh she is a fighter. I loved her sassiness and her personality. She has always had a thing for Knox but she knows he will never have her because Knox and Wilder share their woman.
Certain events leads to close proximity and the inevitable happens. My gosh these two are on fire when together. I felt their love and connection. I needed to fan myself, everytime Knox went into his Dom role. 🥵
It was a really well written story and the plot continues to thicken as each books come by. There someone still out to get them and the threats are continuing. Who is behind this? How are they getting so close? Can Knox love Saylor or will he lose her because of his past?
I also enjoyed seeing the other characters story continuing in this one in the the background.
I can't wait for the next book and hope it's Wilder's story.
This book has a lot of triggers so please check them. There is a lot of kinky sex as expected from a Dom/Sub trope. Also go get yourself a copy. It is pure brilliance.
Its not often I come across a book I don’t love as I don’t have any triggers (except for animal cruelty which I can’t bear) and I’ll read pretty much any troupe. When I read the blurb I thought yes! I like the sound of it and was looking forward to reading it. It was good, I would’ve liked more detailing in some parts. I was a little confused sometimes about Oliver and Blair and where their relationship was heading.
Blair enjoyed watching the cams online and she had her favourite to watch who inspired her to try it too. The money she makes on it is enough to keep her doing it. She reckons Oliver and Rook are watching her but doesn’t realise the truth until it’s too late. The end is a bit of a cliffhanger and is enough to make me want to read the second book but it also made me frustrated that Blair is just too quiet and she just needs to speak out sometimes. I’m giving it 4 stars purely because I got a bit frustrated at times as I wasn’t sure if I liked Rook and Oliver at all.
I have been waiting to read Saylor and Knox's book since I finished the previous book. I expected Tori to take me on an emotional ride with this read and she did not disappoint me. I was an emotional mess by the end and could not get my mind out of this world even after hours of finishing the read.
It was too easy for me to loose myself. I was engrossed from page one as Knox intrigued me and I was curious to know more about both Knox and Saylor. My heart broke for all the pain and heart ache they have been through. I could not help myself falling for them even more.
I was in awe with Saylors strength. After knowing everything about her I respect her even more. The mystery continues in this book as well which was an added bonus. I loved how Saylor pushed Knox's buttons and the bond they share is so special. At the same time, there chemistry is smoking hot enough to melt the kindle. I was rooting for them to get together as they complete each other.
This series has become one of my favourites. Tori tugged my heart with every couple and she writes all the sensitive topics well and in such a way that it's too easy to understand there sorrow and grief and connect with them. Now I am eagerly waiting for Wilder's book next.
Please read TW/CW provided by the author before starting the read. Thanks to Tori and Wildfire Marketing for the advanced copy.
I loved getting to know Saylor and Knox to see the development of their spicy relationship. So many secrets are unveiled, with overlap of Silas and Marley’s story.
Each book in this series is better than the one before it, and I’m enjoying them all. It’s books like this that make me love reading this genre. I will be anxiously awaiting the next release.
Voluntarily reviewed after receiving a free copy courtesy of the author, Tori Fox.
Whew this brother's best friend forbidden relationship rockstar romance was a down and dirty with a large spoonful of suspense making a great mix and a fun read.
Saylor has had a huge crush on her brother's bandmate Knox since she was a teenager. Knox definitely noticed her after she turned fifteen but because of their age difference he kept it to himself.
Suddenly after a threat to her life Saylor finds herself on tour with the band and Knox can no longer ignore his attraction to her. To say them getting together after a hot kiss was like dynamite going off would be an understatement hence the down and dirty! Saylor is willing to take the risk of making her brother angry to get the man she wants, Knox is enjoying the fun but not sure he can give her more as he is still recovering from the loss of the woman he loved.
This is not only a love story but there is lots of suspense as the band continues to be threatened by people unknown and they have to continue to be beholden to their "benefactor" to find out who might be seeking to destroy thenm
Probably the hottest, spiciest and darkest book of the series so far but an amazing read and I am so ready for the next installment.
This was my first story to read by Tori and I can say it won't be my last. I loved this quick hot and dirty read. There was never a dull moment while reading it. This is book 3 of the Saints and Sinners series and even though I came in, I guess the middle of the series, it was easy enough to follow and it definitely made me want to go read the other stories before it. I'm not going to give any spoilers just go in blind like I did and enjoy the dirty fun times and Knox is 🥵🔥. Wilder is next, and he is a wild, hot af card I cannot wait. I do love the lil bit of suspense that's mixed in and cant wait to find out who is behind the threats.
This was a doozy. I cried, I laughed, I was angry for these characters. However this author treated their situations with so much respect and care.
Saylor and Knox have always had a connection but due to their age gap and circumstances within their lives it was just never something they pursued. Once they finally gave into their desires it was hot hot hot.
“Crawl to me.”
“Yes, daddy.”
I could not get enough of these two, it was an absolute page turner. Patiently waiting for the next book within this interconnected stand alone series.. so many questions need to be answered.
Interesting book my first from Tori, and it had me reading non stop. The story is catching and perfectly written. It had a lot of amazing moments that wil have you swooning and falling for them. Definitely a must.
I thought Marley and Silas' book was my favorite but I'm going to say that Saylor and Knox's book is now my favorite of this series!
This is a brother's best friend romance and it's my favorite trope so I was all for this book!
Saylor has always had a crush on her brother's bandmate and best friend Knox. Dirty Secrets was such an amazing read. It had spice and intimacy between Knox and Saylor. I felt both of their vulnerabilities and fears of letting each other in. I also felt their happiness and love for each other. There was also some suspense mixed which I enjoyed.
If you love brother's best friend, rockstar, forbidden, suspense, and age gap then definitely check this book out!
Dirty Secrets was amazingly good. So many aspects of it were so emotional and gripping.
Knox and Saylor have known each other since Saylor was a child and Knox a teenager. From day one Saylor has had a crush on Knox that has never gone away. With threats coming in towards Saylor her brother pulls her on tour with them. Knox and Saylor grow closer and can't deny their chemistry. But Saylor's past trauma and Knox's relationship history threaten to get in the way.
Knox and his specific appetites are oh so 🔥!! Saylor knows completely how to push Knox's buttons. They were practically made for each other. The shared trauma between the two has the chance to make or break them and is so emotional.
The kink and spice knock this out of the park. It was so good! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶
This is Saylor and Knox story and one you need to read. These two couldn’t have grown up more differently yet they both had one thing in common which was missing the live of a parent and they both had endured a tragic childhood shaping who they were as adults. The way these two just fit once they find each other and how they are a unit that belongs together. The chemistry between them was palpable and I loved reading it on the pages. This book had enough angst and mystery to keep my engaged and hooked. It’s a book I enjoyed and highly recommend.
thank you @wildfiremarketingsolutions & @torifoxbooks for the arc!!! saints and sinners series book 3! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶️🌶️🌶️ suspense romance/ brothers best friend
I did not read the first of this series, but you can bet i’m going to after reading Knox & Saylors story! the perfect amount of suspense and spice ! I enjoyed how much Saylors character evolved threw this book her brother didn’t give her enough credit I also love Knox’s growth he is a true protector, I really like books with this amount of suspense and mystery, but also the perfect amount of romance! it was also a quick read because the book was a fast paced book!! make sure to give it a read! dirty secrets is available now!
Knox and Saylor's story is a great storyline and so well written. There is plenty of drama and secrets to have you captivated right to the very end. This pair heat up the pages with an intense chemistry. These two have issues from their pasts that have them on the back foot with a relationship but when reality hits it lights up the pages. A fantastic story that had me loving every minute of it.
This is my first book by this author, i haven’t read the other books in this series but will definitely be reading them.
This book was well paced with a good plot. There is drama, secrets, intrigue and romance. Love both the male and female characters who’ve both had to deal with some difficulties in their past. They are perfect for each other, it just takes a little while for both of to realise it but once they do it it’s fantastic. Loved this. Definitely recommended
OMG this book is amazing! I literally could not put it down! This book will have you in a chokehold!
I love reading Saylor and Knox’s story! Seeing all the stuff that they went through to get to where they are now!
My heart broke hearing what Saylor went through and how she blamed herself for what happened to her that night. And how Knox blamed himself for the death of his girlfriend when it was not his fault.
I loved seeing the other band members and their girlfriends interact! I also loved seeing what happened in each of their stories after they ended!
I cannot wait for the next book to be released!
You will love this book if you love…

WOW, I'm speechless. I didn't want to put this book down but I didn't have a choice because of my lessons. I read in the bus before going to my university. This one was my first book by Tori Fox and I'm hooked. I want to know more about every characters.
This story was a beautiful one, a sad one and a hurtful one. My heart bleeds for this characters.
Knox and Sailor are two broken people because of life. They have a beautiful chemistry and they really love each others.
Tori Fox has a gift to write hard subjects and she handles them with perfection.
Yes ma’am you did that thing with this book. Amazing work right here and I’m not really into rockstar books but this one was more Dom and Brat and I loved it. I hated all the sad shit and I might have cried a few times reading but I really didn’t want this to stop
