This was a really emotional story. Intensely emotional when it came to both of the main characters.
It was also sensual, steamy and kind of erotic. Especially in the semi- voyeur scene, which I wasn’t expecting.
I forgot that the “Dare” inclusion on the eBook cover was the remember that it was going to be of a higher sexual content. The information about this kind of series said that it had strong characters (it did) and highly explicit sexual encounters (it did). For me, I didn’t enjoy that as much since it was in the danger zone of taking OVER the story. That is something that I don’t like. I can’t say it wasn’t well written but it’s just not my style. Quite a bit of language as well including one of my least favorite “F” bombs.
Now to get to some of the things I did like. Ash was an angry man and he had plenty of reasons to be that way. He was a man who had to fight for any and everything he ever wanted. I liked that he was complex. Anything nice about him he tried to keep hidden and there were some people that he cared about. But he could list those on one hand. Anybody else got the street fighting steamroller part of this personality if they didn’t get out of the way first.
Ellie Little was more than a match for Ash. Because even in front of a steamroller she’s not going to roll over and play dead. She is a fighter also and loves a challenge. That’s something that they both have in common. And she intrigues the heck out of Ash and she finds that she returns the favor. She’s not put off by him or his scars. It makes for some interesting interactions.
The book comes to an expected conclusions of some challenges that have been plaguing Ash.
Some of his anger issues get resolved, even though we know he will never be an easy to get along with man. He’s not tame but there is a H.E.A. for Ellie and Ash.

Ellie had no idea what she was in for!
Ellie orchestrated the opportunity to talk to the elusive Ash Evans face-to-face, but she was hardly prepared for the incendiary chemistry they would share that nearly derails her entire plan before it unexpectedly opens the door to another solution.
Ash may be a tough nut to crack, but Ellie is the perfect little nutcracker to break open his heart and show him that he’s so much more than just his anger and his billions.
Their improbable love story has some very sweet and tender moments, along with as much steam as we expect from a Harlequin Dare romance. It’s a captivating read with a very satisfying HEA. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
Wow. I think this is the first I’ve read from this author and I can safely say it won’t be my last. These two broken souls are perfect for each other. He’s fought for everything that matters to him in this life, proving his worth to the world. She’s fought to be seen as an asset to her family’s company, trying to prove her worth to her father. Like puzzle pieces, all of Ash and Ellie’s jagged edges line up to fit together just right. Ellie made me laugh, and Ash made me cry. This book took through the full spectrum of emotions and I can’t wait to go back and do it again.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book through NetGalley.
I usually stay away from the billionaire titles because i feel like there are too many out there and in real life we just can’t relate to so many of them, but again, i love my stories because they talk about people and real feelings no matter what they do or if they had the chance to become more than others in life.
I enjoyed this fake relation and how each one of the main characters is so different but so well matched together. Their banter and moments were fun and lovely to see how they fall for each other.
the only thing that i didn’t like was the relation that Ash had with his brother and that it wasn’t really a confrontation or what i was expected from them as i got the feeling it will happen when Ash asked Ellie for the big favour.
