Here’s more about the book, along with our free Dirty Dozen downloadable discussion question guide for your spicy book club.
Book description
Charming. Seductive. Dangerous.
And the man I’m being forced to marry.
I had no idea Fionn Quinn was an enforcer for the Irish Mob.
Not when he saved me from my ex,
and certainly not when we had our night together.
I never gave him my name,
and didn’t know his either.
We come from different worlds.
I’d have nothing to offer a wealthy man like that.
So I ran.
Hoping he never finds me.
But he did.
Or I found him.
After I watched Fionn commit a crime, he gave me two options:
Marry me or you won’t see tomorrow.
But there’s a secret he doesn’t know.
One that will destroy him.
And now, the man who once saved me,
is the one I’ll need saving from instead.
Filthy Savage book club discussion guide
**PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS DISCUSSION QUESTION GUIDE MIGHT INCLUDE SPOILERS**
We’ve provided the Dirty Dozen below; twelve spicy and intriguing questions to spark discussion and help you uncover the spine-tingling depths of the story.
The Dirty Dozen
Foreplay – Warm Up Questions
1. What’s the overall spice level? 1 (Not Spicy) – 10 (Spiciest Thing I’ve Ever Read)?
2. How does the spice level compare to the other books we’ve read together?
3. “He’s lethal to the world—but gentle with her.” Do you eat this trope up every time, or does it make you roll your eyes? What do you love (or hate) about this fantasy of being the exception to the monster?
The Spicy Bits – Gettin’ Down and Dirty with the Plot
4. At the start, did you buy what Amara’s mom was selling—that her dad hated her and walked away?
5. Could you marry Fionn to save your life? Cold. Possessive. Brutal. Rich. Would the danger thrill you—or break you?
6. If you had to take a shot every time Filthy Savage used a signature phrase or visual (e.g., clasping the back of her head, veiny forearm flex, dangerous smirk), how fast would you be on the floor? What phrase stood out the most to you?
7. Could you fully accept the dream—money, power, private jets, total control—knowing it comes with blood, shadows, and secrets? Or would it eat away at you no matter how pretty it looks?
8. When the bodyguard offers Amara help and Fionn practically sets him on fire with his glare—did you love the possessiveness or cringe at the toxic alpha vibes? Would you want to be treated like that?
9. Be honest: would you be bold enough to go down on your partner in public, under the table, like Amara? Is that kind of risk sexy… or a total hard no?
10. Was the professor’s death justified? Was it vengeance, justice—or just a filthy flex of Fionn’s power?
11. Would you try rope play—whether in private or at a club? What about being restrained or doing the tying appeals to you—or pushes your limits?
Aftercare – Final Thoughts
12. Did you see the twists coming, or did the story sucker punch you? Which reveal shocked you the most—and how did it reshape your feelings about the characters?
