Dare You to by Katie McGarry

Dare You to (Pushing the Limits, #2)

by Katie McGarry

Ryan lowers his lips to my ear.

'Dance with me, Beth.' 'No,' I whisper the reply. I hate him and I hate myself for wanting him to touch me again... Beth Risk has spent her whole life hiding the truth about her family, and never letting anyone get too close. Suddenly sent to live with uncle she barely knows, she's struggling to start afresh in a new town and at a new school that doesn't get her. At all.

Ryan Stone is the school's gorgeous golden boy-with secrets he can't tell anyone. As Ryan and Beth dare to let each other in, they're treading on dangerous ground - and the consequences could change their lives forever.

Another great installment to the Pushing the Limits series. A whole series of changes are put into place for Beth, when her uncle returns and gets custody of her. She struggles with many demons: trust issues, self worth issues, issues of abandonment, abandoning her old life to embrace a new one. So much to that girl. And the real dilemma comes in the form of Ryan, a talented and popular baseball player who seems to have it all, when in realty, he too has personal struggles to attend to.

As always, we get a great book boyfriend. Ryan is sweet, respectful, patient and charming. He was multifaceted as well, which made him more interesting. We met Beth in book 1, where her life kind of sucked (no, it sucked), so I was rooting for her the whole time, and I was happy to see there was a lot more to her than we had previously known and it was interesting to learn about her life before and how it contributed to her current situation.
