Story
What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up. No more screwing, period. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate...no matter how hard that makes things.

Story
College senior Sabrina James has her whole future planned out: graduate from college, kick butt in law school, and land a high-paying job at a cutthroat firm. Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn't include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she's willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes one night is all it takes for your entire life to change.

Story
Allie Hayes is in crisis mode. With graduation looming, she still doesn't have the first clue about what she's going to do after college. To make matters worse, she's nursing a broken heart thanks to the end of her longtime relationship. Wild rebound sex is definitely not the solution to her problems, but gorgeous hockey star Dean Di-Laurentis is impossible to resist. Just once, though, because even if her future is uncertain, it sure as heck won't include the king of one-night stands.

Story
Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates?

Story
He's a player in more ways than one.... College junior John Logan can get any girl he wants. For this hockey star, life is a parade of parties and hookups, but behind his killer grins and easygoing charm, he hides growing despair about the dead-end road he'll be forced to walk after graduation. A sexy encounter with freshman Grace Ivers is just the distraction he needs, but when a thoughtless mistake pushes her away, Logan plans to spend his final year proving to her that he's worth a second chance.

If people have polar opposites, Luca Rossi is mine. His butt is in the baseball hall of fame. Mine's comfortably seated in the hall of lame. When he's not snagging fly balls out in center field, he's modeling in shampoo commercials. I once jammed my own finger while stirring cookie dough, and sometimes I forget shampoo is a thing. He's a total cynic when it comes to love. I make a living writing love stories. But after my latest broken engagement (no, I don't want to talk about how many times that's happened), it's clear he's exactly the man I need.

Ever hear the story about the bodyguard who falls for the rock star? Yeah, it never ends well. Each day I remind myself that it's my job to protect Stone. And nowhere in the job description does it say I should lust after the charismatic, charming man. Especially since we're opposites. But every night I spend with him the dangerous, off-limits attraction grows more intense. Until one night in a limo when we combust. One time only will have to be enough. One scorching, forbidden night. Because the mistakes from the past are chasing me. And if I give in again, I'll lose everything.

I didn't mean to star in a sex tape, okay? It was just one of those unexplainable things. Like Stonehenge, Police Academy 2, and morning glory clouds. It just happened. Now, my ball-busting father is sentencing me to six months of celibacy, sobriety, and morbid boredom under the roof of Boston's nerdiest girl alive, Sailor Brennan. The virginal archer is supposed to babysit my ass while I learn to take my place in Royal Pipelines, my family's oil company. Little does she know, that's not the only pipe I'll be laying....

Publisher's Summary
Get ready for another binge-worthy romance from New York Times best-selling author Elle Kennedy!
College was supposed to be my chance to get over my ugly-duckling complex and spread my wings. Instead, I wound up in a sorority full of mean girls. I already have a hard time fitting in, so when my Kappa Chi sisters issue the challenge, I can’t say no.
The dare: Seduce the hottest new hockey player in the junior class.
Conor Edwards is a regular at Greek Row parties...and in Greek Row sorority beds. He’s the one you fall for before you learn that guys like him don’t give girls like me a second glance. Except Mr. Popular throws me for a loop - rather than laughing in my face, he does me a solid by letting me take him upstairs to pretend we’re getting busy.
Even crazier, now he wants to keep pretending. Turns out Conor loves games, and he thinks it’s fun to pull the wool over my frenemies’ eyes.
But resisting his easy charm and surfer-boy hotness is darn near impossible. Though I’m realizing there’s much more to Conor’s story than his fan club can see.
And the longer this silly ruse goes on, the greater the danger of it all blowing up in my face.

Opposites attract!
Teddy Hamilton as Connor was so perfect!!! Elizabeth Louise brought just the right amount of vulnerability to Taylor, and portrayed her emotions so well!!! Yes, I loved the audio version of this book so hard <3
Connor and Taylor are opposites. They are opposites from where they came from, where they are, where they are going. They are opposites in their insecurities, their reactions, and their processing of feelings. They are completely in sync with the reaction to the other, the openness and comfortableness they feel for the other, and the failure to communicate. The joy of their story is watching them realize the worth in themselves, believing that the other sees the real them. That gives them the safe place to grow, to accept, to believe in what is so apparent to others. They make mistakes, they hurt each other, but the truth is, they love the other too much to be without them. No angst, no games, sexy, and emotional, these two getting their HEA was a beautiful thing to be part of!

Journey of rediscovery, Briar U all the way
Devoured this book in a day. Taylor and Conor are described as being physically different but I loved how Kennedy explored how insecurities can come in all forms. Loved watching these two lean on each other on a journey of rediscovery. Stick with it...its worth the listen ❤️

Wow! That was a powerful storyline with very powerful statements with hard topics from body image shaming, to college sorority hazing, sexual harassment/assault, breaking and entering, burglary, blackmail and low self-esteem/self-worth issues.
The love story is really quite beautiful and messy but real.

Loved it
What's not to love about a story that has Teddy Hamilton as the narrator. In the continuation of the Briar U series I think I liked this one the best. New story line that incorporates just enough of the characters from the previous books where it does not make you feel like you just read the same story. Appropriately titled a dare turns into a real relationship that has its own challenges but it makes you feel outside of the dare these are real issues (body shaming) that college students go through.

I have been waiting for what feels like forever for this book to hit audible. I loved the other 3 books and couldn’t wait to hear about Connor and it did not disappoint! I’m sitting at work in a quite office trying to contain my laughter because I was rolling. You won’t be disappointed!

Not a fav....
3 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
I was really looking forward to reading The Dare, specially after getting done reading The Play which I loved, but ended up being a little disappointed. Taylor’s insecurities were so annoying, to the point I wanted to slap her! Omg stop fat shaming yourself and authors just STOP fat shaming altogether!
I thought Conor was more of a alpha male, but he was seriously a disappointment in this book. He kinda was on the wimpy side.
Plus I was very disappointed in him regarding what he did after Taylor and him broke up. If you say you love someone, then just maybe the first thing you do NOT do is go out and hookup.
The Dare started off really good and I was even laughing so hard in chapter 2, but then the storyline fell apart. I started losing interest and just wanted it to end. It just became the same story that every other book has....Video tape leaks out, psycho bitch turns nice....blah blah blah. Anyhow The Dare wasn’t one of Elle Kennedy‘s best...
Audiobook review: 5 stars! I can’t say it enough Teddy Hamilton is always awesome! I can listen to his voice for hours. lol Elizabeth Louise was fabulous! They both are wonderful narrators...

Good finish to the series
I have enjoyed all of the books in the Briar U series and this one was no exception. I understand that insecurities run deep and can really mess with someone’s self-esteem but after a while I wanted to slap Taylor and tell her to “snap out of it” and have some self respect. Overall the storyline was good, the side characters were interesting, and the love story had an HEA. Teddy Hamilton was brilliant as always and Elizabeth Louise (who was a new to me narrator) was surprisingly great.

A great series
I feel like as I get older college age romances don't always hold my interest but the Briar U series is definitely the exception! It must be a combination of great writing and well developed characters that just make you forget the age of the characters and just get wrapped up in their story (which is how all books should be , in my opinion).
And it doesn't hurt that both of these narrators are incredible :)
