DARE
TO RESIST is the prequel novella to the sexy wedding event of the year! The
Wedding Dare Series brings together five New York Times bestselling authors,
one sizzling story of how the bride and groom fell in love, and four super sexy
tales of bridesmaids who hope to get lucky in lust—or maybe even love—at their
friend’s wedding. Here’s the story that starts it all!
DARE
TO RESIST Synopsis:
Trapped and tempted, this battle of wills rages all night
long…
Kady Dresco and Colton
Brooks click on a level that defies logic. There are only two problems. One,
he’s her older brother’s irritating best friend, and two, they're bidding on
the same military security services contract.
When the competition
heats up, Colton is torn between wanting to strangle Kady (and her annoying
brilliance) and kissing her into submission. Which is a bad idea for a
million reasons, because Kady’s submission is exactly what he craves. Being
trapped in a tiny motel room with the object of his darkest fantasies will
require every ounce of his restraint.
Kady doesn’t want his
restraint, but Colton knows better. She deserves love, marriage, and a white
picket fence—three things Colton can’t give her. But her proximity and the
memory of their steamy near-miss three years ago slowly destroys his resolve.
And he’s not sure how much longer he can keep his hands off…or his heart
closed.
About the Wedding Dare Series:
When four bridesmaids dare
one another to find lust—or maybe even love—at the destination wedding event of

men are onto their game, and sparks will fly alongside the bouquet.
Four bridesmaids. Four groomsmen.
Four New York Times and
USA TODAY bestselling authors. Long-carried torches, sizzling new attractions,
and forbidden conquests will ensure a wedding never to be forgotten.

Dare to Resist excerpt:
Damn
she had a smart mouth on her. So many things he’d like to do to
temporarily cure her of that. And now he knew she’d enjoy them, too.
“Kady, I just meant—”
She
huffed, stoking both the flames of his aggression and his arousal. “I got it.”
He
fisted his hands. “No, you fucking don’t, because you won’t stop talking long
enough for me to explain myself.”
She
blanched. “Well, do it. What do you want to say?”
Here
it was. Moment of truth time. Fucking finally. “Three years ago—”
“Colton,
I don’t want to talk about ancient—”
He
was on her in a flash. One hand over her mouth, the other cradling the back of
her head so that he didn’t hurt her when he shoved her against the closet door.
He held her there with the weight of his own body, his legs on the outsides of
hers effectively boxing her in. “It’s not your turn to talk. Understand?”
Eyes
wide, nostrils flaring, Kady searched his eyes and finally nodded. He could
almost feel the questions rolling off of her.
“Three
years ago,” he said again, arching a brow, “I pulled back from what we
started for a couple of reasons. Same reasons why I pulled away again yesterday
when I wanted to kiss you. But this book…this book makes me wonder if maybe one
of those reasons isn’t as relevant as I originally thought.” He heaved a breath
and leaned his forehead against hers, bringing them eye to eye. “The guy in
your book? I’m that guy,” he said, putting it in terms he hoped she’d
understand.
A
shiver ran over her body. Against his chest, her nipples went hard.
Holy
hell. Did his declaration just turn her on?
Her
pupils were dilating. Right there was his answer. His cock went from hard to
downright torture.
“You
get what I’m saying?” he asked. A small nod. “I get off on being rough. Because
I like and respect you, and because you’re my best friend’s little
sister—”
Her
brows furrowed.
He
pressed his hand more firmly against her mouth and nailed her with a stare. “I
get it. After our talk yesterday, that’s not how I see you. But it is how
Tyler sees you. How he’ll always see you. Big brothers are genetically
programmed to be protective of younger sisters no matter their age. Trust me. I
know from firsthand experience. So I’ve backed off because I didn’t want to
scare you or offend you with what I want, and I certainly didn’t want to piss
Tyler off, either.”
Her
fingers pulled softly at the hand covering her mouth, a gentle plea. He removed
his hand immediately. “Can I say something now?” she asked quietly.
When
had Kady Dresco ever asked for permission to speak around him? But he’d
exerted a little dominance over her, and she’d responded with submissiveness.
Probably wasn’t even aware she’d done it. A dark satisfaction heated his blood
and further hardened his cock. “Go ahead.”
Our Review:
5 Stars
Dare to Resist is quintessential Laura Kaye. A dreamy military man, a sexy, intelligent woman, throw in enough steam to power a locomotive, and you have a Laura Kaye novel. I can never get enough of them.
Two people thrown together after a missed chance in the past. She wants him to see her for who she is NOW, and he comes to realize he needs someone to see him too. Throw in her favorite, well worn erotica novel (I LOVE how that plays into their whole coming together!!), and he realizes it may be possible to have what he's dreamed of having with her for the last three years.
This is a quick, fun, HOT read that has built up my excitement for the rest of the series. The whole idea behind the series and the multiple authors is fascinating and I can't wait to read them all!
