This story had a cute and enjoyable premise, but unfortunately, it was too thin for a 384 page novel. I think it would have worked well as a short story or even as a category romance, but if you're going to write something that could be satisfyingly concluded with half the page count, I think it's a huge mistake to beat the big misunderstanding to death in order to bulk it up. I was annoyed by page 200 and downright disgusted with two chapters to go. I did manage to finish this because it's my understanding that the sequel is well worth reading, but if I hadn't known that in advance, I'd probably have tried this one and written Dare off entirely. Tedious. I gave it a C because it has a few good moments and I did laugh out loud once or twice.
