Dirty Sexy Saint (2019) is a romantic drama based on the novel by Carly Phillips. The film follows Samantha “Sam” Jamieson, a wealthy young woman who rebels against her privileged life. Tired of her controlling father and the expectations placed upon her, she walks away from her luxurious world with nowhere to go. Desperate and lost, she finds herself at a bar owned by the ruggedly handsome but emotionally guarded Clay Kincaid.
Clay, known as the “Saint” among his friends due to his habit of helping those in need, reluctantly takes Sam under his wing.

Sam, on the other hand, is drawn to Clay’s rough exterior and kind heart. As she begins working at his bar to prove her independence, the chemistry between them intensifies. However, both carry emotional baggage—Sam struggles with her past and fear of being controlled, while Clay fights against his belief that he is undeserving of love.
As their relationship deepens, Clay finds it increasingly difficult to resist Sam’s charm, while she proves to him that love isn’t about worthiness but about connection.
