Review & Release Blast: Dare To Tempt (Dare Nation #2) by Carly Phillips

Release Date: August 4
He’s a smooth talking jock in trouble.
She’s the solution to his problems.
Love is the last thing they expected to find.

Damon Prescott had it all. Star quarterback. Money. Fame. Now? He’s being accused of taking performance enhancing drugs and banned from the sport and team he loves.

Determined to prove he’s innocent, he hires tough as nails private investigator, Evie Wolfe. She’s able to bring a man to his knees with a glare, yet sensual in ways that take him off guard - and she’s everything Damon didn’t know he needed.

Evie’s used to men dismissing her, especially playboys like Damon Prescott so she’s not buying the sexual lines he’s trying to sell. She’s with him to do a job, nothing more. But you know what they say about the best laid plans? Sometimes you end up between the sheets with an arrogant football player anyway.

But when the case is over, can Damon convince Evie she’s the only woman for him or will she leave him tied up in love?

MY REVIEW


Damon's sister has the perfect solution to his current problem: have her friend, private investigator, pose as his girlfriend so she can blend into his football world in order to find out who set him up. Damon knows he hasn't been taking illegal drugs, now he's been suspended and fined, all while suffering from a severe concussion sustained during his last game. And now his sister has the brilliant idea for her best friend and soon to be sister-in-law, tomboyish to the extreme, pose as his girlfriend to investigate?! Not, nope, no. Until she shows up looking like his dream come true in heels and a slinky dress. Boy did he have her pegged wrong. Now he just has to keep his hands to himself and remain professional...


Evie and Damon will soon come to see that neither is quite what each had thought. Evie may dress in non-designer wear, without a stitch of makeup on her face most of the time, but she's intelligent and quick thinking and genuine. How could Damon have thought she wasn't his type, wouldn't fit into his world?! Damon too is not the thickheaded jock she had thought. He is fiercely protective and loving, and takes his sport and his teammates seriously, definitely not the dumb jock she had assumed. Will their newfound views of each other combined with their attraction make a fake relationship into a real one?


This is a sizzling installment in the already awesome Dare world. I love how neither of them is quite as expected, yet is perfect for the other. I love the entire Dare family, and Damon and Evie's story is yet another reason why.

Review: Waiting for You by Kate McBrien

Review of Waiting for You by Kate McBrien Justin and Lucy are apart, but for how long? Lucy's staying with her parents, but knows she needs to get out and start living her life again. But when she gets a chance to go to London, it just may be her chance to reunite with the man whose soul has been entwined with hers for centuries upon centuries. But first, our two fated lovers will have to not only reunite, but stay together, beat the odds and the people and/or forces who are trying to keep them apart. Waiting for You is a great followup to Discovering You. Justin and Lucy's story is exciting and passionate, and the mystical/fantasy/paranormal aspect just adds another interesting layer to their already wonderful connection. I normally don't read a lot of paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi romance anymore, but I loved it here in Waiting for You. It's subtle, but ever present and as I said, just makes their story all the more intriguing. I can't wait for the conclusio...
