Great read!

The book was very interesting and entertaining. A great summer time read. Thanks for writing it. Will look forward to more from this author.

Maybe it’s me, but it was too slow

I feel like this book could have been a whole lot shorter and that would have made it a whole lot better. I listened into Chapter 14, a little over halfway. Then I skipped to the final chapter because it felt excruciatingly slow. I may speed it up and go back, but don’t feel the need. I will say I already had my suspicions about who was behind everything, but wasn’t at all sure. The narration was great, but a bit deliberate, though I think that will help if I decide to speed things up. I think the author got bogged down in the emotional minutiae and lost the overall story. Again just skip the excruciatingly slow overthinking and get the story moving. More action and less angst.

DARE-ing to love

Dare's mission becomes complicated when along with his best friends sister he also rescues another woman from traffickers in Mexico.

Holly is not like the usual victims and he soon realises that a hidden agenda is at work.

Taking her home he agrees to protect her and find out who arranged the kidnapping. As he struggles to find out the truth he grows closer to the feisty romantic suspense author with a gentle heart and a steel backbone.

If he can keep her safe, he might just decide to keep her with him always. If he can keep her safe!

I enjoyed listening to this intriguing book with compelling characters and cool narration by Jim that made me long for more by both author and narrator.

I love Jim Frangione!!

I will listen to this book again. The story plot is great. The performance is perfect! I couldn't quite listening.

Oldie but goodie

Another older book of hers….but one of my favorites. I absolutely love love Dare. He is a great hero. 🥰

Action Packed

I have always loved Lori Foster, in fact she's one of my top 5 writers of all time. Although I have to be honest....I was a little disappointed in the beginning of this book: in fact I almost gave up on it after listening to the first few chapters. But since it was a Lori Foster book, I decided to give it a little more time to develop, and boy am I glad I did! Shortly after that...this story took off like a rocket and it had me sitting on the edge of my seat right up to the very end of the story..

Detective Logan Riske goes undercover to find Pepper Yates, a potential link to his best friend's unsolved murder. And he vows to gain her cooperation by any means necessary, and that's when things start to get hot!!!

Pepper has spent years dodging the corrupt club owner who will stop at nothing to keep her silenced. She can trust no one but her brother right now, not even the handsome new "construction worker" who's moved in next door.

Even with Pepper dressing like a bag lady, it doesn't seem to be stopping Logan from being very attracted to her. But he has to keep his head on straight, if he wants to catch his best friends murderer, and finding Pepper's brother is the key to that success. If he has to use Pepper to draw him out, then that's just what he has to do.

Jim Frangione was fantastic with the delivery of the story

Better than I expected

Good listen, Great narrator. The story was predictable but still very well written and held my interest. If you love stories about strong and sexy men who strive to do the right thing and be honorable than this story is for you.

Sexy, suspenseful romance

Loved it! Great listen, Lori Foster does it again. Jim Frangione is a fantastic narrator .

Narrator wonderful, otherwise...

Too long that it was boring in many parts. And the heroine was tiresome. Read Driving to Distraction by this author. It is better.

It was sexy and entertaining!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would definitely recommend this book.

What other book might you compare When You Dare to and why?

All Lori Foster are similar, not a bad thing. There are nice and enjoyable to read or listen to.

What about Jim Frangione’s performance did you like?

The passion he put into every character.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There was not a place in the book that moved me, but it made me giggled several times. With the busyness of everyday and the many responsibilities, I rather get a giggle than a touchy moment.

Any additional comments?

I cannot wait for my next book.
