DARE TO SEDUCE is the latest book in the Dare to Love series which is about the New York Dare cousins. This series has a BDSM flare to it and it sizzles. The Dare men are an alpha group who are very protective and will intervene and take over if they feel the need. So when the sister of the family has moved away and is no longer living near them, they have no problems using their influence to convince her to move back home. I really love this story about how both Max and Lucy have hidden their feelings as a way of protecting their hearts. They both get involved in relationships they feel are safe and where they will not get hurt and be left alone. Both characters have some unresolved hurts they need to deal with. It's a remarkable story about how these two characters have hurts that mirror each other and when they finally voice those similarities they can finally open up to each other.

Max Savage has loved Lucy Dare since she graduated from college but chose to ignore those feelings because of his friendship with her brothers and because of his BDSM desires. So he marries someone else. Lucy is hurt by his decision and moves away. When Max sees Lucy again, she's with someone else, and he does not like the changes he sees in her. Max finally decides he has waited long enough to make Lucy his. Max may be ready, but he has to work to convince Lucy they belong together. He is willing to use any means necessary. So he DARES TO SEDUCE the woman he loves.

The Dare to Love series is a great series by Carly Phillips. If this is your first book in the series, I encourage you to read the others. You will be entertained by dominant alpha men with strong women with some very heated and sensual relationships.
