Synopsis:
A sexy category romance from Entangled's Brazen imprint...
Trapped and tempted, this battle of wills rages all night long…
Kady Dresco and Colton Brooks click on a level that defies logic. There are only two problems. One, he’s her older brother’s irritating best friend, and two, they're bidding on the same military security services contract.
When the competition heats up, Colton is torn between wanting to strangle Kady (and her annoying brilliance) and kissing her into submission. Which is a bad idea for a million reasons, because Kady’ssubmission is exactly what he craves. Being trapped in a tiny motel room with the object of his darkest fantasies will require every ounce of his restraint.
Kady doesn’t want his restraint, but Colton knows better. She deserves love, marriage, and a white picket fence—three things Colton can’t give her. But her proximity and the memory of their steamy near-miss three years ago slowly destroys his resolve. And he’s not sure how much longer he can keep his hands off…or his heart closed.
This book should only come with one warning: don't read this amazing novella in public, it might be way too hot and sexy for the public eye.
Who hasn't had a crush on her older brother's best friend? Who happens to taunt you and annoy you and only sees you as his best friend little sister? If not a brother, the brother of a friend. So this is pretty much what happens with Kady. Until one hot night that Colton almost surrenders to her. Almost.
Now, both of them are bidding on the same military security services contract. And just like fate, they find themselves stranded in a motel for one single night. A night it would be hard to forget.
Laura Kaye had my attention with Dare to Resist from the very first page. I couldn't stop smiling, at first, knowing how the story would end, like it was some big secret only I knew. As the story progresses it goes from hot to hotter. Although I knew that no woman can resist Colton and it was pretty obvious how this sexual attraction might end I found myself surprised to learn some things that I didn't expect at all.
I can pretty much assure you that I devoured this novel and couldn't stop reading until I knew how Kady and Colton's relationship was going to end. I love happy endings, but if they come with sexy and hot scenes in the middle, perfectly written and with such chemistry as this couple... Well, I definitely found my book.
I highly recommend this novella to all those sexy romance addicts like me seeking for a sexy read . It's short and it definitely rises the temperature *wink*. I'll definitely keep an eye on the following Wedding Dare books. Looking forward to read them!

Dare To Resist

Damn she had a smart mouth on her. So many things he’d like to do to temporarily cure her of that. And now he knew she’d enjoy them, too. “Kady, I just meant—”
She huffed, stoking both the flames of his aggression and his arousal. “I got it.”
He fisted his hands. “No, you fucking don’t, because you won’t stop talking long enough for me to explain myself.”
She blanched. “Well, do it. What do you want to say?”
Here it was. Moment of truth time. Fucking finally. “Three years ago—”
“Colton, I don’t want to talk about ancient—”
He was on her in a flash. One hand over her mouth, the other cradling the back of her head so that he didn’t hurt her when he shoved her against the closet door. He held her there with the weight of his own body, his legs on the outsides of hers effectively boxing her in. “It’s not your turn to talk. Understand?”
Eyes wide, nostrils flaring, Kady searched his eyes and finally nodded. He could almost feel the questions rolling off of her.
“Three years ago,” he said again, arching a brow, “I pulled back from what we started for a couple of reasons. Same reasons why I pulled away again yesterday when I wanted to kiss you. But this book…this book makes me wonder if maybe one of those reasons isn’t as relevant as I originally thought.” He heaved a breath and leaned his forehead against hers, bringing them eye to eye. “The guy in your book? I’m that guy,” he said, putting it in terms he hoped she’d understand.
A shiver ran over her body. Against his chest, her nipples went hard.
Holy hell. Did his declaration just turn her on?
Her pupils were dilating. Right there was his answer. His cock went from hard to downright torture.
“You get what I’m saying?” he asked. A small nod. “I get off on being rough. Because I like and respect you, and because you’re my best friend’s little sister—”
Her brows furrowed.
He pressed his hand more firmly against her mouth and nailed her with a stare. “I get it. After our talk yesterday, that’s not how I see you. But it is how Tyler sees you. How he’ll always see you. Big brothers are genetically programmed to be protective of younger sisters no matter their age. Trust me. I know from firsthand experience. So I’ve backed off because I didn’t want to scare you or offend you with what I want, and I certainly didn’t want to piss Tyler off, either.”
Her fingers pulled softly at the hand covering her mouth, a gentle plea. He removed his hand immediately. “Can I say something now?” she asked quietly.
When had Kady Dresco ever asked for permission to speak around him? But he’d exerted a little dominance over her, and she’d responded with submissiveness. Probably wasn’t even aware she’d done it. A dark satisfaction heated his blood and further hardened his cock. “Go ahead.”
