Kieran, Sebastian is just too Bashalicious to stay away from, right?

Carrying on right where Dare You finished, my heart was hurting for both Kieran and Bash as I opened up my Kindle. Bash's hurt and confusion about what he saw with the badbe bunny, Kieran's hurt that Bash had left him - oh my heart.

But I knew that these two would find their way back to each other.

I loved that we spent more time in South Haven, I loved that we got more of Bash's life and friends.

I am glad that we didn't have to wait to long before our guys got their sh!t together, as they neeeeed to be together.

We still have questions that need to be answered, and I am glad we don't have too long to wait before we find out.

"I was more than happy to date around and just wet the whistle when need be, but no one ever stopped me in my tracks."
"Until me?"
"Until you."


AHHHH. More perfection.

I loved how this book began, I loved going back to South Haven and seeing Kieran meet Jackson, Lucas, Shaw, and Trent. I loved seeing Kieran and Bash's relationship change throughout the book and everything about it just made my heart incredibly happy.

Onto book three!

Okay honestly, I don’t really remember what happens in this. But I know the birasure pops up again. Its very tough because while I really really like Kieran and Bash, the story doesn’t really go anywhere. Its a disappointment after such a good start to their story.

Dare Me
, book two in the Dare to Try series by Brooke Blaine and Ella Frank, is a direct continuation from book 1 in the series. I will keep my review as spoil free as possible, but my review is going to come as no surprise to those who know my thoughts on book 1.

At the end of Dare you, Bash makes some very reasonable assumptions and immediately leaves Chicago and return home to Georgia. This leaves clueless Kieran heartbroken and confused, and he drunkenly decides to buy a plane ticket to Bash's hometown. When Kieran tracks down Bash, they talk it out and spend the next two weeks exploring their connection. At the end they have to decide where to go from here, whether that be a move for one of them or a long distance relationship.

Alright this book was 75 percent filler, and I'm calling it right now, this trilogy could have been one quality book on its own. Kieran and his confusion over why oh why Bash would have left is frustrating, and I felt zero sympathy for him. Bash and Kieran together are sweet, fun, and steamy which carried over from book 1. Thankfully this time we didn't have to deal with Kieran's personality around his friends and coworkers, so that was a plus for me.

Overall, Dare Me was less frustrating than the first book, but boring in my opinion. It includes steamy bedroom interactions, car rides exploring South Haven , a night out at the club with friends, and making decisions for their future.

Dare Me is the amazing second instalment and continuation of Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine’s Dare You.

I loved this book from start to finish.

Kieran takes a chance after being put on administrative leave due to his injuries and goes to confront Bash in his hometown in Georgia. Kieran doesn’t understand why Bash would ghost him like he did.

This book takes the readers on an eye opening adventure into Bash’s extravagant life. Kieran sees how loved Bash is in his hometown and actually starts to see why he enjoys the slower pace. Kieran starts to open up more and more to the new lifestyle that Bash has introduced him to and falls more and more for the man.

The banter between the characters in this book had me smiling all the way through. Bash’s friends are hilarious but also truly protective of their dear friend.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Kieran and Bash grow. The character development is truly amazing.

I can’t wait to see what the final book holds for Kieran and Bash!

I love these guys!

Bash and Kieran are back in Dare Me and it is everything I wanted. I just need more, now!!!

Picking up right where Dare You leaves off, things are tumultuous, miles and miles separating these two men. But even with the heartbreak and uncertainty, the one thing neither can do is keep the other out of their head…

With some time off, Kieran bites the bullet and heads to Bash’s home base to clear the air. And things really start to heat up in the south.

We have protective friends, concerned family members and so many saucy moments in this second book and now all I need is the third and final book to ease the questions and the will-they-won’t-they. I just absolutely love this writing duo!!!
