Dareville
Dareville is a series of erotic romance novels and stories written by Leigh Ellwood for Phaze. As described on Ms. Ellwood's website:
Dareville is more than a place...it's a sensual state of mind, proof that great passion can be found in the smallest of towns. Dareville isn't based on any town or place in particular, but it is a place I often come to where I need inspiration. You could also say it's place people visit when they want to come often.
The name "Dareville" is derived from the word dare as applied to erotic romance, and from the proper name Dare, which is synonymous with Virginia (Virginia Dare being the first of the settlers born in the US; Dare is a common name found in the area). Each title in the series uses the word dare in some form.
