In the second book of the Dare Me series, Bell
focuses on
Cat Thomas, sister of Galen, the hero of the first book in
the series. Cat has always been a lively character who
enjoys having fun. So she cannot say no to a dare that puts
her and her brother's best friend, Shane Decker under the
covers in a night she won't forget. Cat's plan backfires
because the next day, she finds herself thinking about
Shane and their hot night together. The one night stand was
meant to get Shane out of her system, but now that Shane
has come back to town to stay, Cat is starting to see the
dangerous appeal to the safe and sensitive Shane Decker.
While Cat is set on only have a good time, Shane is a man
looking for a relationship and commitment. Bell takes both
Cat and Shane on a journey to shows just how easy falling
in love can be. While laugh-out --loud funny and sweet as
sin, I felt a lot of the events and emotions became a tad
too predictable. Cat kept insisting that she doesn't need
Shane, but everyone including her brother can see the
sparks between the two.
Even though this is the second book in the series, a lot of
detail and the main characters of the first book play big
roles in this one, so I highly suggest reading this series
in order. Bell gives readers updates on Galen and Lacey so
if you follow the series, you are guaranteed further
character and plot developments.
DOWN AND DIRTY is definitely a feel-good read. With a hero
who can melt your heart and a heroine who isn't afraid of
showing her feisty side, readers get the perfect balance of
naughty and nice!
Cat Thomas has never been the kind of girl to stick. A
self-professed infatuation junky, she latches on the newest,
hottest guy on the block, then finds a reason—real or
imagined—to dump him. When she accepts a dare to rekindle
her high school flame and jump in bed with her brother’s
best friend, Shane Decker, she knows she’s in trouble. She
can’t resist the man, even after all these years apart, and
that just won’t do.
Shane has come back to town for a couple reasons. The
biggest one? He’s tired of living away from those he loves,
including Cat. But now she’s spooked and will do anything to
drive a wedge between them, including trying to fix him up
with other women through an online dating service.
What does he have to do to make her see that settling down
doesn’t mean settling, and he’s ready to spend a lifetime
proving it?
