Book Description
Studio musician Cal Briscoe has it bad for his best friend's girl, and when Brady Garriston announces his engagement, Cal realizes he will never have a chance with the lovely and exciting Ellie Shaw. Losing interest in his work and discouraged with his love life, he decides to leave the city behind...and hopefully his feelings for Ellie. He accepts Brady's offer of use of the Garriston/Shaw home in Dareville, and is shocked to discover one amenity...Ellie's friend Sue Carmichael. Seems Ellie neglected to mention that she had allowed Sue to stay there, too!
Cal and Sue are the Odd Couple of Dareville, dancing on each other's nerves as they try to make the best of the situation. But how long will it be before Sue and Cal kill each other...or wind up in bed?

- 4 Dolls from Erotic Romance Reviews for Women: "'Dare Me' is a wonderful little romp of a story. It hooked me immediately with the quite humorous start of a sex tryst gone wrong. As Cal ended up jumping from a balcony to escape a brute of a boyfriend bent on test-driving him, I knew I'd enjoy this one. If you're looking for a good, light read, then this book is definitely for you." - Kay Derwydd
- 4 Cups from Coffee Time Romance: "Cal and Sue are enchanting characters who fit together very well. Their relationship progresses at a realistic pace. The sensual tension between them crackles with almost visible energy. The sex scenes are hot enough to send a reader's intimate lingerie up in flames. Brady and Ellie are terrific supporting characters who add a lot of zip to the story. The plot line is intriguing and kept my eyes riveted to the pages."
- 4 Ribbons from Romance Junkies: "Ellwood's heroes are tender and tough, as well as blatantly sexual and unafraid to indulge in anything that will bring them and their partners pleasure, making DARE ME a truly erotic and romantic read!"
- 4 Stars from May Reviews: "The characters are active and the storyline interesting and the flow is smooth. The author leaves us with the brewing of a new plot if she wishes to indulge or with a satisfactory ending if she doesn't. Lots of hot sex..." Polly

A must read for Ms Ellwood fans and those who can't get enough of hot steamy romances! This was a book I could not put down from the comedic beginning thru the hot sex scenes to the exploding end.
