If you ask me, foolishness is like beauty – all about the eye of the beholder.For instance – I’ve been told the amount of caffeine I consume on a daily basis will eventually kill me, which makes no sense, because that caffeine is essential to living. Then I have doctors telling me that I need to get more sleep if I want to live a happy, healthy life. I can easily refute those claims, because my … because my life is neither happy nor healthy if I don’t utilize every possible second of each day to ensure my life’s goals are met.
Now I’ve got people claiming that hooking up with the sexy bodyguard I hired after someone tried to kill me in broad daylight is a mistake. And, okay, they might be right about that one. Even I can’t argue that it’s not healthy to sleep with someone you can barely stand to be around outside the bedroom.
But you know what? Life is already short enough. If there’s a chance I might die young, then I’m going to go out with a bang – preferably the kind that comes with an orgasm or twelve.

This second book in the Jaded series, Pretty Daring by Jenn Hype is definitely a sarcastic yet entirely witty story that makes you fall in love with not only the two main characters but the other secondary characters as well.
Paige, a senators daughter is being sought out by a gang that is trying to kill her. Now Sebastian who is not a fan of the senator must keep his daughter safe and not let his disapproval over her father get in the way. There is so much sexual tension going on in this book that it causes this build up leading to them finally connecting. Not only is there sexual tension but also a level of frustration between the two that cause the best of sarcasting comments and jabs.
I am very pleased overall with the story and definitely believe that book three, Stupid Smart, will be equally as wonderful.
Crazy, Witty, & LOL!! Jenn Hype Writes Another Absolute Masterpiece!
This is a seriously witty & Laugh out Loud funny book; Yet, in Some Places it’s Gonna make you Cry big Ugly Tears… I’ll admit to almost in wetting my pants laughing so hard & also needing my Kleenex TOO!!
I loved the heroine, which is written in such a realistic way; she draws her hero right to her from the very beginning- Even Against HIS Will; it’s great writing where you really feel the characters Emotions. I don’t like spoilers so that’s all I’m giving, except to say you won’t regret reading “Pretty Daring.”
I truly hope Jenn Hype continues to write stories for the rest of the war heroes mentioned inside this book (& the other supporting characters), because they need stories too… this Second Installment, “Pretty Daring,” was LONG AWAITED, Even though it can be Read as a StandAlone!! Jenn’s definitely got a True gift for story telling.
I definitely recommend “Pretty Daring” as one of the BEST Books I’ve read in awhile, & I’ll be looking forward to more books from Jenn Hype in the future, especially concerning these characters.
“Pretty Daring” is a Solid 5 STAR Read, & I rarely give out that Coveted rating on reviews; instead, I save them for those books that truly Outshine, Outclass, & Outperform the competition… But, Jenn Hype has won that honor with “Pretty Daring;” she hits the Mark with her Stellar work!! Kudos Ms. Hype for Besting the Competition Again!!
I was granted an ARC of Jenn Hype’s “Pretty Daring (Jaded Series Book 2)” via Booksprout; I recommend this book to others based upon its own merits. All opinions expressed within this review are uniquely my own & freely given!
Until next time… Happy Reading!
What a Freaking Fabulous Book! I want to be friends with these people!! This book had my full attention from the first word to The End and it’s one of those books that you can count on settling in and getting comfy til it’s finished. It’s snark and wit had me laughing out loud alot, you not only fall in love with the main characters but the secondary ones as well. The book is so well written that you don’t realize it’s part of a series, it’s a complete stand alone with drama, action, suspense, and off the charts chemistry. No cheating or cliff hangers! Pretty Daring is not your typical Senators daughter needs a body guard and they fall in love story…
Jenn Hype might just have become my go to author for Rom-Com! Can’t wait to read Clara and Liam’s story…
Loved the internal dialog – snarky at its finest
The book is well written, I enjoyed the characters. A fun and easy read.
The protagonist has a clever “voice”, and the plot is engaging. A fun and funny read.
The story was good and enjoyed the banter between all of the characters. The story held my interest well enough even with minimal sex scenes. I liked Paige from the beginning and I felt so bad for her having parents who messed up her head. I liked her because despite awful parents she still believed and wanted to be loved so badly. This book was free and the first book that I read from this author. I don’t know why I haven’t come across her books but now that I found her I’m hooked. Liam and Clara’s story seems like it going to be a riot until next time y’all happy reading.
It’s hilarious. Couldn’t put it down. I finished it in one day.
Action packed romance.
Great story line, loved this book and I bought the next one in the series.
Loved the characters and that it was a fun read.
A fun read!
I laughed so much It was really enjoyable
Pretty Daring is book two of the Jaded series. Like the first book, Simply Crazy, it’s full of snark, quirky characters, and moody, but sweet heroes. I don’t need to recap the above synopsis of the story so I won’t. If you’re looking for an easy-to-read, fun book that will have you laughing out loud you should check this series out.
A really fun quirky read. I enjoyed the group of ladies and wished I had friends like that. I really enjoyed Blake and will have to go back and read her and CJ’s book.
A fast, fun read
The second book in the Jaded series, this was my first book by this author and I had no trouble reading it as a standalone. Though Blake was pretty freaking hilarious even as a supporting character, so I can’t wait to go back and read book 1.
Full of laughs, I thought the author did a great job of balancing out the humor with a bit of angst and suspense. I really felt for Paige at how alienated she was from her parents, and the situation with Sebastian’s nephew was heartbreaking. The setup lent itself nicely to building up the chemistry between the two main characters while also keeping the plot moving.
As for great secondary characters, I’ve already mentioned Blake, but there are also several others, including Brady, Sebastian’s brother, as well Clara and Liam, who have sparks aplenty between them, and whose story I’m looking forward to reading.
A fast, fun read that was hilariously funny, but also sweet, touching and a little steamy. 4 to 4.5 stars

5 STAR Review by Jodi for Ruby Red Romance Review
I loved every second of Pretty Daring. I love Paige and her need to be her own person. Paige is just trying to be her own person, not the girl who has a shadow. When an unfortunate turn of events cause Paige to need protection Bass get assigned to the case. Bass has a past. One that hurts your heart. Bass is looking for revenge, but he never thought protecting the person that’s father hurt his family would be on his radar.
I loved this book from start to finish. I loved the witty banter between these two. The sexual tension with these characters is off the charts. I loved watching them fall. I loved watching their fight. I just loved them.
Please check out this awesome story.
I am still laughing at this book. Pretty Daring is book 2 in the Jaded Series by Jenn Hype but is a complete standalone. I didn’t even know there was a book 1 just reading it as is.
Pretty Daring stars Paige and Sebastian. Paige is the senator’s daughter and after some threats that he didn’t take seriously, she is in danger. Enter Sebastian. He works for Jade Securities and is in charge of her well being. They hate each other. Like all they do is fight, but that is part of what makes it hilarious. Their banter and insults that get thrown back and forth. The instant attraction between the two of them they fight so hard to ignore.
There are some very serious moments as well that gives you all the feels. I felt like crying at times. This book will put you through the roller coster of feelings but in the end you will have a huge smile and belly aches from the laughter. I highly recommend and cannot wait to read book 1 and any others that may come my way.
Pretty Daring was my first book by author Jenn Hype. It was a fairly quick and easy read, not quite an insta-love, more an- ‘I hate you, but really I love you’ kinda story.
Sebastian has been hired to protect a wealthy Senator’s daughter who has received death threats. He starts off with a pretty biased opinion of Paige due to something that involved her father and his family. He was an anti-social a**ho!e at the best of times and did little to make Paige feel comfortable. But when someone actually attempts to harm her, he goes all alpha protective.
Paige, is sweet and kind, but also has so hang ups when it comes to trust and love thanks to her parents, neither of whom would win parent of the year. She doesn’t know why she feels drawn to Sebastian and his grumpy soul but she is nonetheless.
Bass, as his family call him, hides a deep, tortured soul but he gives his all for his loved ones. And when even that is threatened he doesn’t know where to turn.
Each find a kindred spirit hidden behind their facade of not caring. But, what will happen when they have to face the truth and admit how they truly feel for each other?
Will the run and hide, or take the bull by the horns and be Pretty Daring.

Warning – may cause bouts of laughter closely followed by gasps of disbelief – My abs are killing me!!
I absolutely loved Sebastian and Page’s story – It was a wonderful mix of real-world emotions blended with just the right amount of romantic fiction magic to make the perfect read – fun and entertaining -no question about it
This was my first in this series – can definitely be read as a stand-alone though this is part of a series – The cast was so vivid and made you feel a part of the scene – they just popped off the pages. I definitely want to know more about each and every one and am looking forward to their stories – The storyline flowed seamlessly bringing me in and easily captivating me right from the opening line –
You know when you raise your eyebrows or shrug your shoulders in response to something a character says or does? Yes like that – this whole story was like that for me – so easy to get lost in the pages and become a part of their journey
Paige is my hero!
