About this listen
Have you ever had one of those really bad days at work? You know, one where your sexy AF boss catches you photocopying your backside in his office?
No? Just me, then?
I blame my bestie and partner-in-chaos. She challenged me with a not-so-innocent dare that I should’ve flat out declined.
But I’m an adrenaline junkie, and now, here I am. I know it sounds crazy, and daredevil tendencies aside, I definitely went too far to get his attention.
But you haven’t seen him.
Colton Wolfe. My boss. Tall, dark, handsome, and with the sexiest British accent I’ve ever heard.
His only flaw? That he’s completely oblivious to what’s been right in front of him all along.
Me.
Well, he was, until a few minutes ago.
Remember those good old days?
Before I got caught bare-assed and making nice with the copy machine, and before I was totally getting fired? But wait. Maybe I’m not.
If I can take on the biggest dare of all: making Colton Wolfe fall in love with me.

The "Dare me" plot was ok but imho did get old and the characters were not believable. I could not get my head around a CEO of a major company being followed around by knuckle dragging heavies threatening another senior executive openly and trying to control his daughter. I had to check it was not a Mafia novel.
I know there are differences between British and American sayings but really???
My final straw was when the main characters went to London and met "The family" WTF really Downton Abbey meets Eastenders? I'm not sure if this story was inspired by a Jane Austen novel but the family seemed stuck in the 17th century.
Unfortunately for me this "Jumped the shark" Shane East and Carly Robins did try.
Gave this up with 4 hrs to go!

Put into context for any American reader of this review, its like like a character starting a conversation with a Louisiana accent using phrases only used in Brooklyn, throwing in a "howdy ya'll" periodically for no apparent reason and ending with a Mexican accent.
This was truly painful to read and worst of all avoidable! it's called a proof reader, one who understands the (British) English language, British slang and which classes use which words (oh and words or phrases they would never ever use).
Rant over... the story itself is ok(ish), a bit thin and predictable but whereas Americans reading it won't get the numerous language screwups and thus be less distracted by them, if you're British there are much better, less frustrating books than this out there, because as with many comments on here it ends up being annoying and cringeworthy enough to distract from the story and that's not good!
get someone who is actually British to proof read!
