Daring You // Dare — Ketley Allison

I have a secret. I slept with my best friend's sister.It's one that's becoming increasingly difficult to keep hidden. I'm the nation's hottest pro-football receiver who oozes charm. Anything I do makes front page news.And that scar on my arm? It may look awful, and I hate showing it, but it also comes with an irresistible Who hurt you??? vibe that immediately makes women want heal my damaged soul.Except ... Astor Hayes has my face made into a poster for dart practice now.Six years later, we're still in each other's lives. It's kind of difficult to avoid me when I'm your brother's ride-or-die. I've matured enough to make up for my sordid ways, and I'm starting with her forgiveness.I also need her help. Badly.You see, there are parts of my past I haven't told anyone that can no longer stay hidden.So, I do the unthinkable: I dare the woman whose heart I destroyed to fight for me.I can only hope that the girl I crushed has stopped having fantasies about killing me long enough to help save my life.--DARE is a steamy, second chance, enemies-to-lovers sports romance with no cliffhanger and elements of suspense. It can be read as a complete standalone.The storyline was far more than a superficial romance with a misunderstanding. There is suspense, an ex boyfriend that you'll hate, an unsolved mystery, workplace intrigue, and a pro sports angle with this story. It's everything I love. The story had sizzle too! - ★★★★★*previously published as Daring You.
