I dared her to spend a hot, no-strings night with me. Now I’m determined to keep her forever.
I’m Trace Weston, recently reformed womanizer. In the blink of an eye, I went from busy bachelor to full-time single dad. My life was already complicated before my sister-in-law asked me to show off my bedroom skills to her bestie, who’s wanting to experience real pleasure now that her one-and-only … pleasure now that her one-and-only long-term relationship is over. Gorgeous Masey Garrett isn’t my “usual.” She’s shy, sassy, driven, and incredibly kind. Suddenly I’m falling fast…but she’s only mine for a night.
What’s a former player to do? Change the rules.
Now she’s under my roof night after night, letting me into her body and her life. Her heart? Not so much. She loves my newborn son. Me? I can’t tell. I’m pulling out all the stops to win her over, but she’s not taking me seriously. Other than passion, how can I reach her? Every attempt only pulls me deeper under her spell. Sure, I could drop an L bomb…except that once imploded my heart. But when her past collides with my desired future, can I risk everything and dare Masey to stay with me forever?

Trace’s life has gone through big changes now that his is a single dad. He has gotten away from his one-night stand ways and is realizing that finding someone to share his life with wouldn’t be so bad. When his sister-in-law, Harlow, asks him to help out her friend Masey to broader her sexual experiences, he reluctantly says yes. Meeting Masey, he is glad that did as she keeps surprising him the more, they get to know each other. Masey has come out of a long-term, lackluster relationship so Trace’s skills in bed allow Masey to realize her true passions. I love how this relationship built. Life happens which caused some unique situations but both Trace and Masey were open to helping each other which gave them a solid foundation and friendship outside of their off-the-charts encounters in the bedroom. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.

I CHERISH Shayla Black’s stories so much!

I love this entire series, but I think my newest favorite is More Than Dare You! Trace and Masey’s story was hot! The chemistry is off the charts! I read this book in one sitting – I could not put it down! FIVE HUGE STARS!!!
I love Trace and Masey. Both trying to live on from past bad relationships. Going into a hookup believing it would be a one night thing but paradise gets on the way of that. There’s nothing better then seeing a couple get closer when there is baby involved, ranger made this story better plus Harlow and Noah is in this book, along with other characters from this wonderful series. The ending is the best to see Masy come in to her own and Trace protecting her is great. Shayla again has not disappointed and always brings the best stories. Can’t wait for Tanner and Amanda’s book
One of my top reads for the summer! I love this series from Shayla Black. The amount of detail in her characters, intriguing plot line, settings so detailed I can feel the ocean breeze and smell the plumeria in the air, makes it even better! We’ve been briefly introduced to Trace in his brother’s book but now he gets his time in the spotlight. Smoking hot single dad strangers to lovers romance Hawaiian nights the amazing words we have come to expect and love from an outstanding author . Go one click!
Trace and Macey. Book number 6 of the More Than series by Ms. Black.
One thing we never have to worry about is the chemistry of the two lead characters. If there is ever any concern about reading a ho-hum sexy story, it does not happen from this author.
I love the family dynamics of this entire series. Noah and Harlow clinched it for me in More than Love you. Trace had some inroads to make with me but this story confirms that he is 100% the hero I want him to be.
When it comes to fun, sexy summer reading (for me it was on the beach), you just can’t go wrong!
More than Dare You is the 6th book in the more than words series. This is Trace Weston and Masey Garrett’s story. Trace is a playboy and single dad and Masey recently got dumped her her boyfriend of 10 years. They agree to a one night stand, but what happens when the playboy wants more. More than Dare You is my favorite book in the series so far! I absolutely loved Trace and Masey!
Instalove fans – this is a must read for you!
Shayla Black has drooped the latest stand-alone in her More Than Words series, More Than Dare You! More Than Dare You is the story of a man of one nightstands and single-dad, Trace and beauty influencer, Masey. Masey is in Maui on vacation, visiting her best friend, Trace’s sister-in-law (Harlow), in an effort to clear her head after ending a 10 year relationship. She’s convinced a one night stand will do the trick – and Harlow has the perfect guy for her… Trace!
Neither one of them expect to fall head over heels within a few days.. and with the scars still healing from Masey’s recent breakup, they both have to overcome their personal commitment issues in an effort to decide if this is worth it in the long run.
This book was sweet – like cotton candy sweet. Trace was amazing – despite him being built up as this huge man whore, you never really saw him embrace that persona at all in the book. It seemed like he melted and turned into putty the minute he met Masey.
It is almost entirely single point of view (from Trace’s POV). This was interesting for me because I haven’t read many that are almost entirely from the MMC’s POV. You do get some of Masey’s perspective at the very, very end.
I’m not an instalove fan so this wasn’t one that I felt connected to throughout but Shayla is such an amazing writer that it kept me interested enough to finish it in 24 hours (which is an amazing feat nowadays). I need a little more angst or build up in a love story.
All in all, very enjoyable and I know instalove fans would really love it. So if you like contemporary, love at first sight with a happy ever after, I’d bet money you’d love it!
Oh my god! I couldn’t put this down. It’s entertaining and starts off with a crazy idea as Trace and Masey meet for the first time. I connected with her in a weird way and felt her reservations. Their attraction and chemistry is immediate and I loved seeing their connection develop as they got to know each other more. They fit. But, this is also funny. At one point I had tears in my eyes while still reading and laughing my head off. I only wish there was an epilogue because I needed some closure and to see them in the future. Hopefully we will see more of them in the next book.
Swoon
Steam

Hot
Lets be very clear from the jump. More than you Dare has got it all and some to spare! Let me just say there was not too much of anything in this book. It was the perfect balance of all of it making for a fantastic story!
There is so much to love in this story.
Trace embraces his gigolo status. He realizes where he talents lie. He is kind of legend when it comes to his love for the ladies. Trace is asked to spend one night with Masey to help break her out of her bedroom slump. He isn’t exactly happy with his status as a good time. What happens, of course, is so much more, taking these two through a plot that had me chuckling at times and aching in others–but most of all, rooting for this destined duo in ways that had me thinking about them all the time.
Shayla Black delivers a true and honest love story. Drawing attention to the difference between what is perceived and what is expected to what is the underlying want and needed. The reader cannot help but want both characters to work through everything and be together. Throw in Trace’s little boy and you have even more to love.
I really enjoyed this read and would absolutely recommend it. This was a 4/5 read for me. It did take me a moment to really get into it. It felt kind of cheap in the beginning as far as Trace basically being pimped out by his brother and sister in law.
More Than Dare You is book 6 in More Than Words series by Shayla Black.
This is Trace Weston and Masey Garrett’s story. Trace’s brother is Noah Weston from More Than Love You and Masey Garrett is BFF’s with Harlow Reed Weston. Masey is in visiting her bestie after her ex fiancé dumped her for another woman. She is going thru this huge self doubt and pain. Masey needs to know that she is still hot to men, not cold and defective like her ex made her out to be. Her ex blamed everything bad on her. Masey’s job is as a beauty influencer and right now she doesn’t feel like influencing anything for her life is such a mess…
Trace is this great single dad to his infant son and runs his own business. He has been feeling like it’s time to stop being a playboy/womanizer and just find someone he likes and settle down. Really, seeing all his family/friends setting down has him wanting to find that special someone who could give him what his family already have. Then he ends up meeting Masey and he knows she’s it… Masey asked her BFF to help her set her up with a date for a one night stand…enter Trace. They didn’t expect to instantly fall head over heels for each other. They both have baggage and emotional scars. It’s beautiful to read how they have to overcome those scars for each of them, and fight for their relationship, their love to get this HEA. I loved Trace because he was just sweet, loyal, the best dad and handsome man. Masey was the perfect heroine for Trace- beautiful, sweet, hardworking, kind and shy. The More Than Words series has great plots, awesome characters and fantastic writing. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.
My Rating: 4.5 stars *******
Sexy has a sensitive side and Black is determined to expose hearts to that beautiful contradiction. Make no mistake, More Than Dare You is meant to seduce. Trace and Masey give senses quite a workout with their instant attraction and steamy romance. However, they make sure to put emotions through the wringer along the way.
A real man gives up a one-night stand for a woman he can’t stand one night without…
This series is close to my heart. I love when authors write about families and their connection to each other. The family dynamics is delightful with this group of brothers and sisters and their significant others. Trace is Noah’s brother who is now retired from being a star quarter back for a well-known football team. Trace has established himself running his own boat charter business but has always stayed on the sidelines. He loves his brother and his success, but it has caused self doubts that have stayed with him. That goes hand in hand with his relationships, if any. He has a reputation for his prowess in the bedroom, but that’s as far as it goes. He is finding out that being a man whore just isn’t enough for him anymore.
He meets Masey who needs assistance in the boudoir. He is set up by his sister-in-law to give her a night she will remember. Masey has been deeply hurt and needs to have her confidence built up. It starts as a one-night stand but very quickly they discover that may not be enough for them both.
This was sexy, hot and steamy but also romantic and the story delves into each of their insecurities. Another wonderful story in this series.
This story started off really strange for me. The whole conversation about why they met was almost a turn off buuuut…the chemistry that came afterwards made me forget that fact and I simply enjoyed this story soooo much.
It was fast paced and all consuming. Both of them helping each other get past the hangups they have about relationships. This was a great way to spent a few hours locked away in a world were HEA is there for the taking but only if you’re brave enough to take it.

Masey is in desperate need of a fling. Her was-fiance has a new girlfriend and she needs a pick me up so when she meets smokin’ hot Trace she is all in. Newly a dad and single, Trace is becoming more than the player that he has been rightly named as but in the interest of being a good brother in law, he says he will meet Masey’s request for a one night stand, especially after seeing the shy bombshell. What is supposed to be a one-off thing soon turns into so much more.
I have not read the other books in this series, though I have read other Black books, so I wasn’t completely sure how this story was going to roll. I was pleasantly surprised to find a sweet, sexy, thoroughly engrossing read that is pure romance story bliss. Trace and Masey’s journey from meeting to unexpected life happenings (read: stuff get in the way of the one night stand) to learning about each other was equal parts humorous, sultry, and touching. Both leads are endearing and relatable from Masey’s ambition and broken heart to her wanting to heal and move to Trace’s single dad status and love of his son opening his eyes to a life he never considered before. Each character has their strengths and their weakness with the other being their anchor.
If you are looking for a romance to take you from your ordinary day and transport you to swoon and heat and laughs, More Than Dare you will fit the bill nicely.
More Than Dare you has moved up to my top spot in the More Than Words series. It is the perfect combination enjoyable characters, steamy moments and a fun storyline.
Trace and Masey are only supposed to be together for a one night fling but right from the beginning they have easy banter and growing chemistry that neither of them can deny. Circumstances have thrown them together for more than just the one night and if they can both overcome their past heartaches and open their hearts, they have a chance a something wonderful.
I haven’t read many books by this author so I was a bit hesitant to jump into book 6 in the series but I still really enjoyed More Than Dare and not having read the previous books took nothing away from this steamy romance .
Single dad Trace Weston is not looking for love or a relationship but one night with no strings attached with Masey Garrett is just what the doctor ordered problem is one night with the sassy, feisty, stunning Masey was never going to be enough…
Both Trace and Masey have issues that need to worked through before they can build a future….
If you are looking for a smoking hot, entertaining read look no further than this book, it’s well written, it has characters who share an intense chemistry , some witty banter and a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
This author is always an automatic one click for me and stories like this are the reason why. Trace Weston is Noah’s brother and agrees to do a favor for his sister-in-law Harlow. The favor, one night of hot sex with her best friend Masey, who was recently dumped by her boyfriend of 10 years. Trace is a single dad to an infant son and runs his own business and he has been feeling like it is time to stop being a playboy and settle down. He is feeling a little envious of what his brother and friends have with their families. The night he meets Masey all it takes is one look and he’s a goner. He knows she’s the one. All he has to do now is convince that she needs to stay in Hawaii and with him.
After being dumped by her boyfriend of 10 years for another women Masey is unsure of herself. It doesn’t help that her ex blamed almost all their problems on her. She is a beauty influencer and he would never do much to support her career. She is feeling very unsure of herself and very undesirable. When she meets Trace the attraction is instant but after all the thing her ex told her she has a hard time truly believing that Trace could actually want to be with her and that he is not just being nice. When a friend of the family needs help Trace uses that to not only help her but to help himself by bringing him & Masey even closer on a day to day basis for the time she has left in Hawaii hoping he can convince her to stay. After a series of conversations, misunderstandings, off the charts hot sexy time when Trace puts himself out there and asks Masey to stay will she trust herself & him enough to give them both the happiness they want & deserve? This series is amazing and I am looking forward to Tanner and Amanda’s story next.
4 Star reviews of More Than Dare You (More Than Words #6) by Shayla Black
Over the past 12 months I have been gravitating to single parent books and I couldn’t wait to see what Shayla black had in store for Trace Weston.
Single dad Trace Weston isn’t looking for love, but fate and a feisty, sassy woman Masey Garrett have other plans. What starts off as a no strings attached one night stand suddenly morphs into so much more.
Both have baggage but have been dealing with it. Can they work through their issues and in doing so make a future together?
More Than Dare You was a well written, smoking hot and heart warming story that ticked boxes for me.
