I loved this book, so I’m giving away a digital copy to 2 lucky commenters!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"truthordare_rec\"<\/a>In a deliciously sexy twist on the classic game, USA Today<\/i> bestselling author Mira Lyn Kelly proves that when playing truth or dare\u2014always <\/i>choose dare.<\/b>
\n\u00a0<\/b>
\n<\/strong>After her one attempt at commitment ends in the worst kind of betrayal, Maggie Lawson vows that the only people she\u2019ll love \u2019til death do they part will be her friends. Unfortunately that means Maggie letting her bestie rope her into a year-long dating dare: score a new date each month or pay a penalty. Seems doable\u2014until Maggie\u2019s date stands her up, leaving only one option: the sexy stud who just moved in upstairs. The problem? He and Maggie can\u2019t stop fighting\u2014and that\u2019s just the beginning.<\/p>\n

His name is Tyler Wells and the last thing he needs is his neighbor distracting him with her girl-next-door smile and sharp tongue. Tyler\u2019s in Chicago for one reason: to woo back his selfish ex in order to reclaim the child he once thought was his\u2014and that means keeping Maggie out of his bed. A tall order, since Maggie has become a bigger temptation than he ever expected to face. But before they can even consider leaving the past behind, Maggie and Tyler must accept a brand-new dare: real, forever love.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"reviews\"<\/p>\n

The first scene in Truth or Dare<\/strong> opens with the heroine, Maggie Lawson, doing the neighbourly thing by bringing a fresh-baked cookies to the new guy in the building. He happens to be our hunky hero, Tyler Wells. Unfortunately, the reception she receives is less than friendly. Okay, it\u2019s downright surly.<\/p>\n

Only then the guy raked a hand through the damp mess of his hair and blew out a strained breath. \u201cLook, Apartment Two. Whatever you\u2019re offering, I\u2019m not interested.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And so sets the tone of the beginning of the book. I loved it! Nothing like a surly hero who is, at some point, going to have to apologize for his behavior. Of course Maggie can\u2019t stand him now. And who can blame her. I didn\u2019t. His subsequent apology falls on deaf ears and her \u201ccaustic\u201d response then sets the tone for their interaction over the following months. The only thing I wish here is that readers were witness to that scene instead of Tyler reminiscing about it after the fact.<\/p>\n

Over the next five months, they exchange a litany of barbs whenever they come in contact. Something they both secretly enjoy. I laughed at this scene where they poke fun at each other\u2019s lack of a love life.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026And what is this I hear about you and Rosie Palms?\u201d she asked with a pointed nod at his hand, the saccharine sweetness all but dripping from her fangs. \u201cPicking out rings, already?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, well, we\u2019ve been exclusive for a while now,\u201d he said, holding up \u201cRosie\u201d, his right hand, and giving in to a grin as he started up the stairs. \u201cTime to make an honest girl of her.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

But as you can imagine, beneath the surface of their barbs is a sizzling attraction that neither will acknowledge but just won\u2019t quit. It\u2019s when Tyler becomes friends to her friends in the building that they decide to become \u201cfriends\u201d.<\/p>\n

Snort.<\/em> Yeah, right. There\u2019s no way that\u2019s going to happen. I know it and they should have known it too but I love watching as they come to the realization that the just friend thing is so not going to work between them.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, all those plans started circling the drain as soon as her eyes landed on the stubble rough, untucked and comfortably worn packaging of a guy who wasn\u2019t looking at her like a friend at all. Because friends didn\u2019t do that full-body slow, burning sweep with their eyes that ended with them staring at the other\u2019s mouth.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When they finally succumb, the sex between them is\u00a0hot. Love it. And there\u2019s so much more than just the sex that makes it hot but the emotion in it. Those are the kinds that make for the best love scenes. But Tyler is determined that nothing can really happen between them because he\u2019s not \u201cavailable\u201d for a relationship with anyone. I won\u2019t tell you what that is, but it wouldn\u2019t give any woman a reason to hope for anything serious. So they vow that\u2019s the first and last time.<\/p>\n

The problem is, knowing there\u2019s no future in a relationship between them and accepting that. Both try\u2026 to no avail.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure,\u201d she gasped, her hands sliding up and down the hard contours of his chest. \u201cThis is sex. No expectations. Just two people taking advantage of an opportunity they seldom see.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Beyond a well-developed, tension-wrought and surprisingly deep love story, Mira Lyn Kelly<\/em><\/strong> introduces a wonderful cast of characters in Truth or Dare<\/strong>. Her best friend, Ava and her brother, Ford\u2014who is their collective landlord\u2014and Sam, a general man-whore<\/em>, are characters whose stories I want now<\/strong><\/em>. Kelly gives you just enough about them individually to peak your interest but not so much that their lives take away from Maggie and Tyler\u2019s romance.<\/p>\n

Overall, I absolutely loved this book. And I\u2019m champing at the bit for February 17, 2015<\/strong> to arrive when we\u2019re going to get Ava and Sam\u2019s story in Touch & Go<\/strong>! YAY!!! I just read the blurb. I was hoping they\u2019d get together.<\/p>\n
