Great book!!! Loved it!!!
Hot hot hot!!
Great read
great erotic fun read
I know I read the first few books a couple of years ago – but that was before I was regularly writing reviews. Experiencing this as an audio has been on my radar for a while and St. James announcing the Chirp sale on Twitter made buying the entire series easy.
Since Double Dare takes place over a few weeks this is best enjoyed when you’re looking for insta-love with a heavy emphasis on steamy, steamy fun. This definitely qualifies as NSFW. Unique to most MMF books is that this starts with Logan & Ty in a long-term established relationship. Bringing in Quinn for what quickly turns from “one-night-fun” to “we can’t live without her”. Includes MF, MM, & MMF scenes.
This ends on more of an HFN than HEA. Ty’s former teammate, “Long Arm” Landis, is featured in book 2, Daring Proposal and Logan’s sister, Paige, is featured in book 3, Dare to be Three. So I’m hoping we’ll get some regular updates on Quinn, Ty, & Logan.
Note: There was a scene that bordered on dubcon for me, so be aware if you’re sensitive to that.
Narration:
Coughs. Well then. Um. Yeah. Whoah! Ava Lucas, Teddy Hamilton & J.F. Harding did a fantastic job. I loved that each character had their own narrator. While each brings their own unique voice to the audio, I liked that the personalities of the other characters stayed consistent no matter who was performing.
I’m not one to consider two men at the same time, so this was the next best thing to doing it! Hot!
This book was ok but bot great, not as steamy as expected and not with a complete ending. It kind of just ends as an HEA but it just stops with no wrapping up of drama with her life
Erotic, hard to put down
I enjoy steam but goodness have some character and plot development .
Quinn Preston is a woman drowning in expectations: her parents’, her ex’s and her friends’. She wants something more and Logan Reed may be the answer. What she doesn’t know is that Logan comes with something more….Tyson White. They both give her far more than she ever dreamed of; acceptance, happiness and love.
Audiobook version:
This was a great book that was not only entertaining and steamy but also addressed some societal issues as well. I thought the characters were great, the plot intriguing and the narration delicious. I can’t wait to read more on these characters.
AudiobookObsession
Let me start by saying that this listen is hot. Not just regular hot, but pant meltingly, fan yourself hot. The kind of hot that makes your pulse quicken, your eyes dilate and your breath come in pants…you might even need a cold shower. That being said, this listen is so much more than that. Many different issues are addressed in this book and as a listener, I appreciated that. Not only is bisexuality addressed, but the challenges of being in a polyamorous relationship. Logan and Tyson have been in a long standing relationship. They love each other deeply and it is evident through their interactions. Then you bring in a third party, Quinn, who both men enjoy and are attracted to, but bringing in a third party means different things to each of the characters. That coupled with the fact that Ty is black and Quinn is a “rich” girl simply adds more layers to this unique love story. Additionally, the narration is on point. Ava Lucas is simply amazing and her male voice and delivery of all characters is pure perfection. Teddy Hamilton is fantastic as alway as J.F. Harding brings Tyson to life. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and can’t wait to listen to more from this talented author.
4 star review of Double Dare (The Dare Menage Series #1) by Jeanne St James
Audio Review:
This book contains M/M, BDSM and M/M/F themes and had me intrigued from the start.
Having listened and read several books by Jeanne St John I was interested in how Quinn Preston, Logan Reed and Tyson White would blend together, particular y since Logan and Tyson were already in a committed relationship when Quinn catches Logan’s eye.
When Logan takes a drunk Quinn home to sleep it off, she has no idea how her life is about to change.
There is certainly chemistry between all 3 main characters and relationship combinations. This was a story that was steamy and hot. There was also humour within and I felt that the narration by Ava Lucas, Teddy Hamilton and J F Harding really brought the story to life for me.
Double Dare is well written and although there were plenty of steamy scenes I wanted more of an insight into their relationship other than in the bedroom. Perhaps the author will re-visit these characters again and we will learn more.
Wow! Scorching Hot! This is one of the steamiest books I’ve read and I’ve enjoyed dozens of erotic romances. The characters are endearing and I fell in love with them. I’m glad Ms. St. James didn’t end with the heroine being pregnant. I hate that tired, old, cliché ending. Pregnancy is neither sexy nor romantic. (Though she does end up pregnant in the next book, but that one’s not about her.) I just read the preview of the next book and I’m going to be reading the whole series, even if a frequent change of panties is required. The author’s style is quite enjoyable, well paced, few if any typos. All in all, everything I could ask for in an erotic novel. Now… on to her next book.

Very sexy read – loved it.
This started off kinda slow but once it got going, it was enjoyable. Enjoyable enough that I am considering buying another from this author.
