Dare You To by Katie McGarry
May 28, 2013
Harlequin Teen
Synopsis:
If anyone knew the truth about Beth Risk’s home life, they’d send her mother to jail and seventeen-year-old Beth who knows where. So she protects her mom at all costs. Until the day her uncle swoops in and forces Beth to choose between her mom’s freedom and her own happiness. That’s how Beth finds herself living with an aunt who doesn’t want her and going to a school that doesn’t understand her. At all. Except for the one guy who shouldn’t get her, but does….
Ryan Stone is the town golden boy, a popular baseball star jock-with secrets he can’t tell anyone. Not even the friends he shares everything with, including the constant dares to do crazy things. The craziest? Asking out the Skater girl who couldn’t be less interested in him.
But what begins as a dare becomes an intense attraction neither Ryan nor Beth expected. Suddenly, the boy with the flawless image risks his dreams-and his life-for the girl he loves, and the girl who won’t let anyone get too close is daring herself to want it all…
Why I’m Excited:
What are you waiting on?
OOOO!!! Yes – good choice!!!! I loved Pushing the Limits as well, and I always wanted to see more of Beth when I was reading Pushing the Limits. And I *love* the cover!!! I almost fell out of my chair when I saw it those weeks ago. Great choice!!!
My WoW
Oh, my. Yes. YES NOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!
Everyone loves Pushing the Limits so I feel crazy for not having read it yet. I need to get on that, but I love this cover! I can’t to pick up both novels. Great pick!
Just finished it 2 nights ago and it was wonderful
I liked it better than Pushing the Limits!
You already read it, Christina?!
I’m so jealous!! BETTER than Pushing the Limits?! OMG!
I agree, Bailey! I so want to read this. I’m really hoping it will be at BEA so I can meet Katie McGarry again, but either way I’m getting it as soon as it’s out!
I haven’t read Pushing the Limits yet, but maybe someday! I’m just not a huge fan of contemporary >_< I had Pushing the Limits on my shelf for like 6 months and never read it…. #bloggerfail
I’ve never ready pushing the limits and I’m not really sure about the plot of this one, it sounds like every other young adult romance out there, and I’ve watched quite a few movies where there is a dare involved.
My WoW
A million times yes!! I need this book so badly!! Awesome pick!
I recently read it and I LOVED IT! I promise you if you enjoyed Pushing the Limits you will LOVE Dare You To as much as I did!! Perfect Waiting On Wednesday!!
