Summary

Don't You Dare is a new adult college romance that explores the unexpected shift in a friendship sparked by a party dare. What begins as a single, impulsive kiss between best friends challenges their previous perceptions of their sexuality and feelings.

Description

It was never meant to be more than a dare.

A party game. A dare. A single kiss.

That's all it took to flip my world upside down.

I've always classified myself as straight, and as far as I can tell, so has he. I didn't think one kiss would change that, but I was so wrong.

Now, I can't stop thinking about him. In all the ways I shouldn't. My best friend. Aspen.

His taste is branded in my memory, his touch seared in my skin. And I want more.

This simmering attraction I feel only grows with passing time. Which is why I start tossing out new dares. Riskier ones that toe lines we never thought we'd cross.

I'm gambling with our friendship, knowing it could ruin us. But there's so much more at stake here.

Like my heart.

Don't You Dare is a new adult college romance featuring two best friends, too many baseball puns, scorching dirty talk, and a whole lot of bi-curious exploration. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age.
