10 Truths and a Dare by Ashley Elston
5.0
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5 stars)
Reader’s Notes:
If you saw my review of 10 Blind Dates, this is a connected book that occurs after 10 Blind Dates and is narrated mainly by Sophie’s cousin Olivia.
– though 10 Blind Dates had some cursing and questionable clothing, this book did not.
– there is a male/male relationship in this story (in 10 Blind Dates we knew the uncle was interested in guys, but he did not have a significant other at that time. In this book he does have a s/o)
Review:
Olivia is the second in line for top of her graduating class, but when she is notified that she is missing gym credits she freaks out a bit. She did go to the class (most of the time) and passed all of her other ‘important’ classes with flying colors. But she finds out that her coach didn’t sign her form because she was gone/late more than the amount of times he allowed. While she was using the time to better her academics, she was also losing points in her off-site class. Uh oh!
But he gives her a second chance. All she has to do is help him with a golf tournament (and be on time doing it). But Olivia doesn’t want to let anyone know that she is less than perfect so she can’t tell her parents (or everyone in her large extended family will know). But with her parents out of town, her mom stalking her phone’s every move on the Life360 app, and texting her a thousand times a day, she would notice if Olivia isn’t attending to all the graduation parties she was invited to this week.
So she only has one option: tell her closest friends (2 cousins and a childhood friend) and convince them to help her out. How? By switching phones for the day and having them pretend to be her and bringing her phone to the areas the parties are. Simple right?
Well maybe for her cousin Sophie, but the other two (who are guys) don’t really know what to do when her mom starts talking outfits.
