The problem? Ethan has a billion dollar contract with Sienna’s brother at stake. An overly-protective brother who doesn’t take it well when he finds out his business associate bedded his much younger sister. Oh, and she’s pregnant, too…

Could not put this book down. A Dare and a Knight make a baby! How amazing is that? Absolutely loved Ethan and Sienna. Sienna was adorable. Ethan was a grump, understandably due to his most recent past, but I loved how Sienna brought him back to his old self. He did put his foot in it a few times and I loved that Sienna didn’t let him get away with it. Their chemistry was hot, their talks were revealing, and we get a to revisit with the Dare siblings? What’s not to love about this story? A definite must read.
Sexy. Funny. And everything in between. Carly Phillips is an author you always expect this and so much more. Well, she has given us so much more.
This author knows how to write and create family drama that won’t stop. She makes you part of it all and sucks you in until the last page. The way the half siblings are weaved into this story is epic and the drama never stops to keep your attention. Carly Phillips has outdone herself again and deserves a standing ovation for this masterpiece.
Sienna and her family have been through the wringer. She is trying to figure out what to do with life. Enter Ethan Night. Unexpected and broody, he enters and life is turned upside down for sienna, in many ways than one. He realizes he wants her and the rest is history. This story is one of reflection and realizing you want something you never knew you wanted until it happens. Amazing story!
Carly did an amazing job with Sienna and Ethan’s story. It had all the love, laughter and emotion you come to expect from her books. It was great to see Sienna go after what she wanted. Ethan is the big alpha male who can’t resist the temptation the Sienna brings out in him. It was great to catch up on Ian and the other family members. Great story
4.25 stars—DARE ME TONIGHT is the third instalment in Carly Phillips contemporary, adult THE KNIGHT BROTHERS erotic, romance series focusing on the Knight siblings, owner of Knight Time Technologies. This is eldest brother Ethan Knight, and twenty-three year old, recent college grad Sienna Dare.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Ethan and Sienna) DARE ME TONIGHT follows in the aftermath of a one-night stand between businessman Ethan Knight, and Sienna Dare. In New York as part of a potential business and scholarship opportunity Sienna Dare finds herself attracted to her host Ethan Knight, the man with whom Sienna would fall in love. But upon her return home Sienna would quickly discover that her one-night stand had resulted in a pregnancy, a pregnancy she was hoping to keep secret a little while longer. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Sienna and Ethan, and the potential fall-out as Sienna believes Ethan is only with her because of the baby.
Sienna Dare is fiercely independent having struggled as a child with a life-threatening illness. Always under the watchful eye of her large, extended family Sienna hopes to make it on her own but an unplanned pregnancy, and heart breaking news from home turns Sienna’s world upside down.

A one-night affair results in life-changing consequences that force Ethan to take a long hard look at what he wants, and the woman with whom he will fall in love.

There is are large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including all of Sienna’s siblings from both families, as well as Ethan’s brothers Parker and Sebastian, and their sister Sierra.
DARE ME TONIGHT blends the timelines and characters from two of Carly’s popular and current series. The premise is engaging, emotional and heart breaking; the romance is seductive and steamy; the characters are sassy, sexy and strong. DARE ME TONIGHT is a wonderfully entertaining story.
3.5 stars.
Well, this happened.
Here we have Sienna and Ethan, he’s in charge of showing her around her weekend in NYC and trying to help her choose a path in live. They get along great, too great, lol.
Anyway, when Ethan has to spend some time in Florida working with Sienna and for her brother, they realize things are unfinished between them, which get SUPER complicated when she ends up pregnant.
Still, it was great that he stepped up and helped Sienna get rid of her childhood demons. Man, that was some dad. :-/
It was a sexy and entertaining read, great addition to the series.
*Thank you to the author for providing a copy for which I’m giving my honest opinion*
An exceptional book that was hard to put down. I love a protective older brother and when Ethan & Sienna muck it up – they muck it up good! It was a joy watching it all unfold. Read. This. Book.
Dare Me Tonight is a sexy take on a forbidden love type of story. He’s a successful businessman with a boat load of drama behind him and she’s a breath of fresh air having newly graduated from college and trying to figure out what drives her in life to settle into the right type of career. He just happens to have a billion dollar contract happening with her brother’s company right now, so getting involved is not a good idea.
Ethan Knight is particularly satisfying to read about because we’ve already read about his life being torn apart by secrets and lies in his brother’s books previously, so we already have a great deal of empathy towards this man who deserves to find his happily ever after.
Sienna Dare brings us back into the Dare family who has been beloved for years and we get to see the story from her point of view and watch her thrive in the family that she didn’t think wanted her for so long.
The story was fast paced and satisfying every step of the way. I thoroughly enjoyed every page and wish there had been even more to read about with this couple and these families overall. The Knight Brothers series has been filled with love, angst, family strength and has simply been a joy to read. You can’t go wrong with any book in the series, but this one in particular snagged my heart early!
This is my first read of the author and maybe I should have read the previous books in the series before reading this one, because I don’t really know the full history of the Dare’s and specifically what Sienna has gone through. And obviously this being the third book in the series, not much was being said about the MCs past histories.
Sienna is in her early twenties, just finished college, now she needs to decide what to do with her life. She has decided it’s time to start making decisions for herself, for once. New York is the place where she is going to start. Attending a function to assist in helping to choose a career, Sienna is escorted by Ethan there, and the minute she sets her sights on him she is determined that she is going to have him.
Ethan had his world turned upside down when his wife died of a drug overdose and her many hidden secrets came to light. He became a broken shell of a man not willing to put his trust in woman again until Sienna Dare came into his life. Asked by an important client to look after his little sister while she is in New York, Ethan becomes completely bewitched by her.
Seriously, if I had read the series from the very beginning maybe I would appreciate the story more and have a better understanding. That’s the only reason why I gave it a 3 stars. But nevertheless, it was a great book! I loved how love changed Ethan and watching him evolve into the man that his family knew he was capable being and how much he loves Sienna and the vulnerability he shows is in and of itself worth the read of this book.
I will admit, I was a cynic, I doubted before starting the book. Because how can Carly entwine the Dare family and the Knight family? Would it feel forced? Would the age difference and life experiences be too much for “all the feels” I normally experience with her books? Well, was I wrong!! The story flows so well that I left all my doubts by the 2nd chapter. Siena was still the sweet sheltered person we all loved in the Knight Stories but is now all grown up and ready to live her life to the fullest. Ethan is existing but not living and his encounter with Siena is exactly what he needed to join the living. Old characters appearances bring depth to the story and the only sad thing about this book is that eventually it ends. I feel like I want to keep visiting them every time I can!
This is book #3, in The Knight Brothers series. This book can be read as a standalone novel. For reader enjoyment, and to avoid spoilers, I recommend reading this series in order.
Ethan meets Sienna and the attraction between them is instantaneous. She is also totally forbidden, as the sister of one his biggest clients. How can you turn down desire that is overwhelming?
Sienna has never felt this way about anyone. Ethan and her feeling for him are all consuming. He wants her to be his secret. After what her family went through that is not something she wants to sign up for.
Totally blown away at how deep and compelling these characters are. The story goes along at a good pace, and the favorites from previous books make appearances as well. This book is the total trifecta. I cannot wait for the next book by this amazing author.
***This early copy was provided for an honest review only.
Dare Me Tonight is one for the record books and Ethan and Sienna are my favorite couple of the series. This is a Knight/Dare crossover you do not want to miss out on. When Ethan is tasked with being Sienna’s guide for her weekend in New York he doesn’t expect to find a beautiful woman when they meet. Sienna doesn’t expect to meet the alpha male that is Ethan nor to spend the most beautiful weekend with him. When Ethan comes to the new stadium project to oversee the installation the security, he doesn’t expect to still have intense chemistry with Sienna. He offers her a no string/secret affair, but Sienna is not about that. She wants someone to love her for her and give her what she as always wanted. When Sienna finds out she is pregnant will Ethan step up to the plate and do the right thing or will he let his past come between something they both want. You must read this amazing story if you want your questions answered because I will not spoil the book for anyone.
The Knight/Dare crossover of Dare Me Tonight is one of drama, romance, and an intensity I didn’t see coming. I love that we get to see some of the characters from the Dare series and it is really bringing a nice family feel to this story. The chemistry that Ethan and Sienna have will heat up the pages. Right out the gate with their first meeting you know it is going to be intense between them. I love that about characters when they just fit like two puzzle pieces. Carly has done a great job bringing these two characters to life and you will see once you read. You will fall in love with Ethan in his book and get to see a different side to him. Sienna is a different girl from the one we meet in the previous Dare series because she is all grown up. Great job on this series Carly and keep on writing because this is a great one.

I loved it, Ethan Knight Yes please.
He’s still holding a grudge and is very hard to be around when Ian puts him in an impossible situation that could cost him loads the youngest sister Sienna and she is a very Strong willed woman who lives to the fullest.
These two are explosive there’s no other word for it and it gets better when complications arise. I couldn’t get enough I love this series. Perfect ending.
Aww what a sweet sweet story! Ethan has already been through so much in his life and has lost his way. When he meets sienna sparks fly and he begins to feel like him self again! This was such a cute, sexy, beautiful story! I love the Knight brothers!
When a night in NY leads to Ethan and Sienna letting their sparks ignite, they have no idea what it will lead to. Ethan is all alpha male, overcoming a troubled marriage that ended in her dying from overdose. He still recovering from the trusts that relationship broke in him. Sienna, having broody half brother Ian, is used to surly men. So Ethan is no match for her. I love these two together and their story is great! I loved the insight to some of the other Dare/Knight relationships that mixed int this very nicely. Another amazing book that I am sure I will re-read very soon!

“Somehow, someway… you’ve got me.”
Sienna Dare has been through a lot and so lives her life intensely. She is twenty-three years old and is going to New York to define her academic and professional destiny. Until Ethan Knight crosses her path and shifts her focus: with an explosive chemistry, the only thing Sienna thinks about is ending the night in his bed.
Ethan has also had a hard time before becoming the cold man his brothers and sister barely recognize. Betrayal and theft are on this list, but finding a corpse in his bed ultimately seems to have closed his heart forever. Until he meets Sienna Dare, and the young woman begins to make him question what he really wants for his life.
Looking for a CEO who is not an asshole? You just found him! Ethan Knight is a perfect crush. Handsome, successful, full of values and principles, who loves his family and respects women. He is not perfect, he’s going to make mistakes, but rest assured: he’s written to make you sigh.
A lightweight book, beautifully written, with plot and characters very well developed. A narrative made for you to sigh with each page. A work made to feed and comfort romantic souls. And melt even the coldest of hearts.
*ARC provided in exchange for an honest Review *
I love the Knight Brothers even as they faced the disaster of their business they persevered and two of them have found love, even their sister has finally found her one. But Ethan is different, as CEO he shoulders everything and he feels even more responsible since it was his deceased wife’s betrayal and theft that has them in this precarious position.
Sienna Dare is coming to NYC visiting Columbia on an invitation to their NYC Weekend Scholars’ Social. Since Knight Time Technology has the contract for the Miami Thunder’s new Stadium and their headquarters is in NYC Ian Dare calls in a favor to have Ethan Knight escort his sister. Of course the Knight brother’s do nothing halfway and her visit will be anything but an ordinary thing.
Now Ethan was unable to meet her at the airport, so he is to catch up with her at the Social. Boy is he in for a surprise.
For Ethan meeting Sienna is a turning point and he spends a lot of time in denial. Keeping their activities a secret while working together is more than difficult.
You know how it goes, the tangled web and all. Ethan may jeopardize his entire business because of this relationship.
Laughter, fun, romance, tears, plenty of heat and a few surprises will have you turning the pages for more.
LOVED! Watching Ethan & Sienna find their HEA was so amazing! Watching Ethan lose the walls he built up was so endearing. Sienna was perfect for him; soft & open with a steel backbone. I really loved their story!!
Best of Both Worlds. In one single sentence that is my exact feeling about Dare Me Tonight! Sienna Dare and Ethan Knight’s story was explosive with scorching hot sexual chemistry and instant deep emotional connection. I have fallen in love with this sexy and intense love story by Carly phillips!
Both the Dare and Knight family are my favorites. And I always admired Sienna’s character. She had to fight a deadly disease yet she has created a life in her own merit. She is smart, talented, independent and fierce but the insecurity and guilt never left her. Ethan Knight took her life by storm and they have this electrifying chemistry. Ethan is an alpha male with brooding intensity, just like her brothers. But his past is full of darkness and it is holding him back. The push and pull kept on driving me crazy and then the surprise pregnancy news dropped. And everything became even more complicated.
I loved reading the bits and pieces about the Dares specially Ian! Ethan is one dominating protective alpha male who finally realised Sienna is more important to him than the business contract and basically everything. I wanted to hit him for his stupidity sometimes. But Sienna brought him to his knees, literally and that was fabulous. I am Team Sienna as she never ever let herself down in spite of her dramatic family dynamics. She believed in her feelings and stand strong. What started as burning passion slowly evolved into a meaningful soul deep bond. Ethan gave Sienna the cherished life. And Sienna slayed his demons. The emotional battle was real and difficult especially with a baby in picture. But Carly Phillips did an amazing job with the story! The family played a big part in the story and I was thrilled to re visit my favorites!
Dare Me Tonight was about taking a leap of faith and second chances. It was sensual. It was swoonworthy romantic. It was heart-warming and touching. I loved every second of this passionate and moving journey!

Not my first read by author I am very familiar with her writing style and also have read each book in the series!!
What an exciting read to be honest, I read this in one sitting and I couldn’t stop even if I wanted to. I kind of got caught away with it that I didn’t really highlight much just kind of got sucked in. This surprise baby was adventurous, fun, heartbreaking and beautiful!
What went from a one night of MANY’s and a BEAUTIFUL my god beautiful morning turned into something neither, not anyone expected. The way Ethan found out…that will be fun, you’ll see. Poor Sienna, all she wanted to do was protect Ethan even before when he was a total asshole.
There is so much here, it intertwines with the previous books of course, she is after all the half-sister of Ian. So, I would recommend reading from Book #1 but honestly if I just jumped into the series, i’d be fine still. All in all, it was fast pace, lot’s of actions, surprises and emotion! Another amazing read by this author!! Can’t wait for more!

I loved this story of the youngest Dare! Reading from her point of view was just so many feelings! She is strong and independent and lives life on her terms! Ethan was full of redemption and this was a fantastic story of how two souls that are meant to be will find their way!
