The book begins where the first book ends - and the truth is, it has been so long that I have almost completely forgotten what it about ... 🙈
But after reading my previous review, like the first one, this prologue also starts with a big BANG: Maddox is desperate and Lila is heartbroken - but what happened between them that led to this situation...? 💥💥💥

I'm giving 3.75⭐ for this one...
I really liked the friendship and how things evolve between Maddox and Lila.
They always share a deep connection and I was cheering for them since book one... But then they surrender to their libido and ruined their friendship?
It's a lot of unnecessary drama between them and I won't even start with all the trust issues and lies.
I looooved how good they were together, and I hated that Lila just walk away when Maddox needed most.

The first installment was terrific and the beginning of what I thought was going to be a great duet. It left readers hanging from a cliff begging for a hand-out. But, as so often happens, the second installment fizzled and left me totally bummed.

Heads-up – it’s recommended that you read the first book so you’ll get acquainted with the characters in the early stages of their relationship. While the first part of the duet was more of a slow burn build from friendship, this one explodes H-O-T-to-t

The first installment was terrific and the beginning of what I thought was going to be a great duet. It left readers hanging from a cliff begging for a hand-out. But, as so often happens, the second installment fizzled and left me totally bummed.

Heads-up – it’s recommended that you read the first book so you’ll get acquainted with the characters in the early stages of their relationship. While the first part of the duet was more of a slow burn build from friendship, this one explodes H-O-T-to-trot right out of the gate straight to the finish line.

I’m going to be blunt and straightforward when I say that I was sorely disappointed in this book. So, prepare yourselves because I’m about to start with a major rant. That old adage “less is more” enters the picture far too frequently. The graphic and vulgar language and detailed minute-to-minute sexual encounters between these two grew old real fast. Not every time, but most, it was a case of sex on steroids – rough and way over-the-top page-filler – same-old each and every time – downright boring and had me skimming too often– nothing emotional about it – just rote sexual acts with no enticing intimacy.

I struggled with the relationship being based mostly on the sex. Maddox was a mess in this book. And Lila was a crier. A little less of that – the drama-escapades that included lies and trust issues and maybe the book would have succeeded in a more meaningful feel overall. Otherwise, it was minus the passion and breathless magic of real love.

The dares between Lila and Maddox got a little out of hand in my opinion. They played it like some kind of psychological warfare – always managing to mess things up between them. Sometimes, you can get too much of a good thing as was the case here.

The dirty talk also got old and boring real fast. Every conversation began and ended with some four letter word. After so many F-bombs, I hit my limit, and started yelling “Screw you!” And then there was the case of Lila’s a$$. Maddox totally made an ass out of himself by constantly going on and on and on about that particular part of her body on a never-ending cycle -- enough to fill three books.

Lots of missing words and bad editing popped up in this book that I didn’t notice in the first one. Originally due to be released in February 2020, it didn’t hit the one-click button option until four months later in June. So maybe the author was hurriedly trying to make deadline or amends to her readers, but whatever the reason, it was still disappointing.

Readers will find I Dare You to be a hot, steamy and whirlwind enemies-to-friends-to-lovers romance between two very opinionated, fiery, frustrating and demonstrative personalities – both of whom are carrying some tough baggage around. But there’s so much unnecessary angsty page-filler that it chokes the main plot. The book would have been just fine without those additions. Believe me, Lila and Maddox alone could have used the extra pages to haul themselves out of doomsday scenarios.

Definitely a case where the first book set the standard high, and the second book didn’t get there. So this time around I wasn’t a happy camper and can’t say I enjoyed much of the wrap-up. I know I’m in the minority on my feelings, but sometimes that’s what happens.

At least the cute epilogue several years forward put a twinkle in my eye and a smile on my face, so that was a plus – even though Maddox was still yapping non-stop about Lila’s rear-end!

I don't know... I'm just meh about the book. This could very well be the case of "It's not you, it's me" since I am definitely in the minority but you never know.
While I did finish the book in under a day, I wasn't bursting at the seams trying to find out what was going on. Additionally, the climax fell a bit flat for me. All of this angst and secrets piling up and then poof it all comes down. It also kinda doesn't help when everything is right in front of me and I could guess what was ...more

Kicking things off from Book 1, it takes off right where it ended with Maddox confronting Lila after a night of thorough fucking and daring her to Stay! This story felt like a game of TRUTH AND DARE & LOVE to me. Between friends, who are as stubborn as Ox. Bull heads, both of them.

IDY shows a remarkable growth of Maddox's character in a painstakingly breathtaking manner. He undergoes through various phases : Lust - Heartbreak - Misunderstanding - Longing - Love - Playful - Angry - Hurt and what not. Narrated from dual POVs, I truly enjoyed each and every single line, much less the chapters. Time didn't seem to matter as I went on reading, devouring this story. Through out the process, my kindle stayed on fire. If you felt they were short on romance or sex in book 1, James satisfies us with more than enough for a lifetime in this phase. For a reader to get as enthralled as I was, would be a big freaking deal for sure. When friendship crosses a boundary, there's no going back to the old ways; no matter how hard you deny or try. There's an invisible line between friendship and love - once you tread past it, one or both of you are bound to hurt by either one's actions. I guess, the same could be said for both Maddox and Lila. There wasn't much to hate. Though, I felt Lila behaving extreme too much or at times, felt her negative vibes through the story straight to my brain. Yes, it felt fuzzy to like her but given the situation, if I, as a woman, in love with an asshole is put through the same, I wouldn't behave any less than this little dragon.

IDY deals with heartbreak the most. While the couple tries their best to hold on to their budding relationship, things tend to go haywire when past comes knocking their door. It's only a matter of time until their friendship cum love turns into something indistinguishable. And neither of them seem to have even thought about the destruction that their lies might bring. In a con to protect each other, both of them fall hard into the pit of lies, misunderstanding, hate and absurdity. But, hold on there tigers! There is much more than the measly fights. Living lives with constant Dares might be the next best idea to save their budding love. I felt each emotion. Each tear. Each thud of their hearts. Each reunion. Each shatter of their hearts. I cried with them and laughed with them. I screamed at them and thwarted my surroundings with them - such is the power of Lylah James' writing. She made me fall in love with MALA all over again. She made me hate Lila. And she made me cry for Savannah Coulter with her emotional speeches. The dialogues were painfully throbbing throughout my heart. After each chapter or a particular scene, I had to take a breath. It was all too much and all too less. I could not settle for one emotion at all. That what makes this author my favorite of all time. She made me wait for this story for quite long but I'll say this, wholeheartedly, I DARE YOU was worth every frustrating second of my time. I'm sure it'll be yours too.

Let's fight with Lila to save Maddox, again. Let's fight with Maddox to keep Lila his forever, again and again. I DARE YOU to read one of the achiest books of 2020 by Lylah James now. It had ANGST. STEAM. An Asshole Alpha Male who is possessive, obsessive, romantic, teasing, broken and everything that is Maddox Coulter, A Sassy Garcian who is every bit of fiery and feisty to match our hero's temper and we get the perfect cast of supportive characters to back the story up.

So, while the first book was a slow burn, this certainly wasn't. There was plenty of heat, and lots of angst which is exactly how I like it. Maddox was endearingly scuffed and ripped around the edges, and Lila is the perfect antidote for him... before it all goes horribly wrong.

Then all of my questions were finally answered as we learn a bit of backstory to Maddox's upbringing. The author kept me guessing on that one until right the very end.

It's just this deep feeling of dissatisfaction in my gut because I didn't want to leave the world of Maddox Coulter and Lila Garcia. If I could stay in their world forever, I would. I hate endings as much as I love them because I always have trouble separating myself. It leaves me satisfied and dissatisfied at the same time. It makes absolutely no sense but that's what has me so annoyed about it.

I love this duet because of how completely different it is from this author's usual work. I don't know how to describe it but this book is pure sorcery. It wasn't anything big but it's like a deadly viper, the feelings, the angst, the pain, and the love slowly slithers around your body and then grips onto your heart with no intention of letting go. It took me by surprise how much this made me ACHE.

We pick up where book one left off and there is a pivotal change in the relationship Maddox and Lila share, and it's anyone guess how it turns out. These two bugged the shit out of me. They had a serious communication problem. I feel like most of the drama could have been avoided if they just talked (even if they had to scream) everything out. And most of their problems were of their own making which was sooo frustrating and made so mad. But alas, that would be too easy. There was so much unnecessary pain and heartache but I think it was something they both needed to go through. If you think about their ages, they are definitely still young and it was something they needed to deal with so they could grow up a bit.

I loved this book! We went from so much sexual tension and banter in the first book, to just non-stop sex, which I am definitely not complaining about. I loved watching these two together. They were already best friends, so that transition from friendship to love-ship was so wholesome. They made me feel things, they made me ACHE. Literally ache with feeling. There is soooo much angst and the emotions messed with my head. I'm lying in bed, feeling like I left a piece of myself with them.

This is a book about forgiveness, second chances, healing, and love but it's also about anger, hatred, and obsession. It's a love potion for one of my favorite couples ever. You won't regret taking a chance on these two. They are everything you need and more. ...more

Well I'm about to start reading it all over again because I COULD NOT GET ENOUGH OF MADDOX AND LILA!!!! GAHHHH their story picked up right where it left off...in the city of love, Paris....

Once again, L James had me pulled in from the first pages of the Prologue with a broken and desperate Maddox and a heartbroken yet determined Lila. What had happened? The passion, love, hate, angst and deep connection that grew between these two in Do You Dare? was still there...the underlying current that hums throughout their story. But this pain went even deeper. Their story took a turn and their emotions and feelings were no longer surface-level or "just friends." But SO much more.

In this book, you will see Maddox & Lila fight both for and against each other. They push each other to their limits; they try and break the other down, yet are still there for the other when they fall; they give in to their attraction and feelings, but one is always second-guessing the other. They know each other better than anyone else, yet still can't figure out what it is that truly makes the other happy without breaking them. You will scream and cry for them; fall in love with their love, and then gasp and sigh at the lengths they will go to for the other, or to see the other crumble. The way they test each other is often painful at times, and yet L James writes their story so beautifully broken and emotionally stirring.

"We turned something beautiful into something ugly, without even realizing we were the reason for all the hurt. Our stubbornness. Our pride. Our need to protect each other in our own messy ways."

This quote sums up this book. They are messy, but they are EVERYTHING!!! My heart is still in my throat. My emotions are a wreck, and my senses are working overtime trying to catch up with Maddox and his sexy and charming ways. Oh this man broke me in this book! These two together are lightning, fireworks and a tsunami all rolled into one. They love, hate, fight, and protect at 150%. Their passion is all-consuming, and their boldness is jaw-dropping. I loved every single second of this book. I Dare You to read it and walk away thinking differently. Well done once again L James!!! ...more

Quotes from I Dare You

“This isn’t the movies. Or a romance book. It’s real, and it’s going to hurt. You see, love will become boring, after you’ve been together for years. Every relationship will hit that phase, where the ‘spark’ is gone for a brief moment in time. And that’s where most love stories perish, or where few love stories flourish. It’s exactly, in that moment, where you’re supposed to fight harder. Love isn’t just a feeling. It’s a commitment. You don’t quit when it’s no longer fun. You don’t turn your back on it when it gets ugly. No, love is everything messy and everything beautiful. You fight. You love. You live. And that’s exactly what Brad showed me,” — 4 likes

“Love is messy… love is ugly. Love is roses and thorns. Love is… unconditional. You don’t give up on love. You fight and fight… and fight for it, because it is worth every tear, every ache… every smile, every laugh.” — 3 likes
