Double dog dare you
Vanessa takes the dare from her best friend and ends her self imposed dry spell with Enrique. Enrique is surprised to see Vanessa his first day on the job. A job he can’t tell Vanessa about yet. Will withholding the truth ruin a future with Vanessa? Great story with a HEA.
This is a nice short book with a good storyline. Vanessa has been so focused on her career that she hasn’t been out on a date for years. So at a company event, her best friend dares her to take a guy home for a one night stand. They have a policy of not turning down dares sine they were college roommates without severe penalties. So she meets Enrique and takes him home.
Monday morning at work she finds that Enrique is the new intern at work. However, they decide to continue seeing each other. Though Enrique has secrets of his own that he can’t reveal to Vanessa and he is afraid that when she finds out, she will not want to be with him.
The storyline is not out of the park original, but it had some steamy love scenes and was good for a short read. I sometimes just don’t feel like getting into a 300-500 page book, so these are nice for times like that.
Wow!! The chemistry between Enrique and Vanessa is off. the. charts!!! This novella had all the heat!!! I would have loved a longer story for these two characters to really show how connected they were outside the bedroom. All of these characters were fantastic and I would love to see more 🙂

Going in I knew this was a quick read so I really wasn’t expecting to get a lot from it character wise. I was wrong. We really get to know what kind of people Enrique and Vanessa are. We get a little mystery and some HAWT action. Really enjoyed it!
An Inconvenient Dare by Bethany Lopez was a quick and sexy read with a bit of angst and all kinds of steaminess! I loved Vanessa. She was strong and determined and tied to her job that she lost all sight of herself. But all that changes when she is dared to find a man and let go. And let go she does.
The minute Vanessa and Enrique set eyes on each other, things are hot and steamy! They have one sexy and unforgettable night. Enrique was sexy and all kinds of charming, but what is he hiding? Can Vanessa forgive him or is it too late already?
An Inconvenient Dare by Bethany Lopez is a novella and a very quick read. Even so it was sexy, a bit angsty and all kinds of steamy hotness! I loved the characters very much and though I wish we would have gotten more of them, it was a great read!

Happy reading!
An Inconvenient Dare, started with a Dare by a best friend, ends with The female lead feeling more than she bargained for. My favorite character is best friend Ella. This is a short novella, with a HEA.
An Inconvenient Dare was a fast pace Novella. If you are also a Carly Phillips fan, Bethany’s characters are part of her Dare world. I was giddy seeing the two author worlds collide! Vanessa is our heroine and I was drawn to her immediately. Enrique was our yummy hero and you knew his intensity would make you shiver. So when the characters were introduced, I started to map how the characters would be like together and how their world would collide with the hot and heavy. Well I was right with the hot and heavy, but the power play was different. I absolutely loved it. You get so much of unexpected surprises. An Inconvenient Dare had the beginning, the middle, and the end. Sometimes you miss a one or two when you have a fast pace read. Not with this book. You get the chemistry, the drama, and then your HEA!
