**Review for Delaney Dare's Run For Me**

You know it's hot. You know you're going to get burned. But you can't help the shaky hand that reaches into the heat."
This is a short and steamy taboo novella that serves as a prequel for The Saint, a full-length dark reverse harem romance coming next year. I don't want to give much away, but suffice to say that I'm looking forward to it, and I'm not even the biggest reverse harem fan.

"He'd beg to put his hands on me. He'd fucking beg. And then I'd let him."
Nova, Gianna's stripper alter ego, dances at a club, fueling men's fantasies while she moves to every song. It's a means to an end. She ran away from her family, and she's had it rough, but things seem to finally be going her way. Until she gets bumped to Elite level, where she can be bought for the night by someone.

"She will be hunted, she will be fucked, and she'll never be the same."
She's halfway between excited and afraid about it. Well, to be honest, more like 75-25, actually. She is a pretty daring, strong girl after all. She couldn't have prepared for what was expecting her, though. She was certainly not ready to be chased through the woods. Or *gasp* to like it so much.
What she also didn't see coming? The person who bought her for the night. In fairness, he wasn't expecting her either.

"I live for the hunt. The fight. The chase. The darkness deep inside your mind, body, and soul."
There's only one sex scene in this short novella, but it's a damn good one. And the tension is palpable, so much so I may have reached out to the author and asked for a specific scene to happen in the book. Is it going to happen? I don't know, but a girl can hope, right?

All I know is that this book better come soon because I need to know the rest of the story ASAP.

Rexie and Colton! Swoon! I loved this novella! This story is part of the Strip Tease collection. This was such a great little story! I loved the twist of the “dancer” side. A Stand in dancer and a bouncer to the rescue, what a story! Colton and Lexie have that instant connection with each other that makes Rexie feel safe. Not once but twice! I their connect is hot but its also super sweet! A relationship in the making!

Run For Me by Delaney Dare

5/5 ⭐️

Hot damn! This prequel is smokin’ hot and will tease your senses. It oozes tension and leaves you craving more.

Gianna and Ledger heat up the pages, giving us a little taste of the forbidden.

“𝙄 𝙩𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙧𝙪𝙣, 𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙗“………..”𝙄 𝙩𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙄‘𝙙 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪.“

I can’t wait for the next book in the series, especially after that cliffhanger.

-————————————————————

One Night Stand-In by AJ Mullican

4/5 ⭐️

When Rexie gets stuck with the bill at an exclusive strip club, her only option is to dance it off. She doesn’t count on the sexy bouncer to come to her rescue. When Colton lays eyes on Rexie he can’t take them off, there’s just something about her that calls to him. However, something sinister lurks in the dark…

Rexie and Colton burn up the sheets in this short story. I love the immediate connection between Colton and Rexie. The added suspense and danger gives this story life. A great addition to this sinful anthology.

Review for Run for Me by Delany Dare: OMG that was phenomenal, sexy and so freaking entertaining!

I was instantly captivated with Gianna and Ledger and I could not get enough of these two. Their whirlwind story might be short but it sure packed one hell of an exciting and deliciously titillating punch to my girl parts.

I want and need more of these two after the crazy way this one ended.

Fantastic writing, amazing characters and a storyline that was just everything!!!

My review for Run for Me by Delaney Dare, as part of the Strip Tease Anthology.

Thank you so much for providing me with an arc!

This was a quick and hot novella which is a set up for the full book that is to come.

This was so much fun. There’s a mysterious plot going on with the family that starts to unravel as the novella progresses. It ends on a cliffy, and I’m intrigued to read more!

There is a prominent amount of primal play in this, so if that’s your thing, you won’t like this. But if you’re down with being chased and then railed, pick this baby up!!

5/5⭐️ 2.5/5🌶

✨Book review✨ Run For Me by Delaney Dare 5⭐️
Well, I was looking for dark and steamy and Delaney Dare met my expectations and then upped the ante with forbidden, taboo and suspense. Needless to say this prequel was the perfect way to suck me in and start begging for The Saint because that cliffhanger was intense!

Spoiler-free review!!!

If you are looking for your next dark romance fix, look no further…this is it.

First, the title was perfectly chosen because as soon as I finished reading, I ran to preorder The Saint( Book 1 of Carnal Mayhem).

Run for Me was a quick, intense, suspenseful read with a lot of elements that made my dark-romance-loving heart extremely happy.

If you enjoy:
-dark, forbidden, stepsibling romance,
-evil twins,
-primal play,
-you are MINE vibes,
-running from the past,
-secrets and revenge plot,

then I recommend checking this out.

I received an ARC for my honest review.

This review will also be posted on my IG.

Primal, stripper heroine, you’re mine vibes, secret identity, on the run, stepbrother romance

Run For Me is part of the Strip Tease Anthology. Gianna works at Sinsations which isn’t your ordinary strip club. It’s exclusive, and it was built to entertain a sense of anonymity including herself as she’s on the run from her stepfather. After a night of fun with an anonymous stranger, her world is turned upside down. This ends in a cliffhanger so be prepared!!

4 star Review Strip Tease: a Contemporary Romance Collection (Limited Edition Romance Collections)

A collection of stories by a number of authors. This review is for Run For Me by Delaney Dare
Run For Me is a prequel novella for The Saint and be prepared it does end in a cliff hanger, so you have been warned. Gianna (aka Nova) works at SinSations, a strip club with a difference. It’s up market and caterers to a variety of high profile clients who wish to be anonymous.
Although a quick read this book packed a punch and is on the darker side so again you have been warned. This is a reverse harem story that was steamy and passionate. Gianna has run from her family and now that she has been made an “elite” her life is going to get complicated.
I really liked Gianna she is strong, feisty and sassy but what happens when she embarks on a night that she won’t forget?

*review for Run For Me by Delaney Dare*

⭐⭐⭐⭐|5
🌶️🌶️🌶️|5

GENRE: dark romance
TROPES: secret identity // stepbrother
POV: dual
TW: primal play
CLIFFHANGER: yes!
HEA: not sure


So this is a prequel for The Saint. This book is very short and to the point. It's about Gianna aka Nova who is on the run from her family, mostly her stepfather, but also her stepbrothers, Ledger and Lennox.

She is a stripper at the moment, trying to survive after running away. She decides she wants to make more money, so she signs up for the ELITES. On her first night, she is bought by someone unknown and it all goes downhill (or up) from there!

I really want to see where the relationship between Ledger and Gianna goes, but I'm NERVOUS because I don't know how I feel about RH romances 😫 we'll see though!

I admit I am a bit biased when it comes to anthologies
What is there not to like?
I get to try new authors
Delve into new worlds
Get a taste of what's on the horizon
Sure, they are usually short stories, maybe a side character from an existing series or a prologue to introduce us to a new one
like...

Run for me by Delaney Dare -And Crispy Crackers did it leave me wanting more (sort of the idea here)

We have our runner - Gianna
She's running from a life she doesn't want
Doing whatever is necessary to survive
Including selling her soul
We have the black sheep - Ledger
Fighting against an inheritance he doesn't want
While planning his revenge and maybe imbibing a little on the side to feed his baser needs
Then there are our villains
The jealous green-eyed sibling - Lennox who is evil without remorse and believes he should have it all
and Dear Old Dad who reigns supreme in his gluttonous empire of depravity
I am always amazed when an author is able to get me invested in the characters with only a few chapters - and Dare does that easily here. This series will be on my one-click list

I will update as I read the rest of the stories

[ ARC REVIEW FOR RUN FOR ME BY DELANEY DARE ]


description


First of all a big thank you to Delaney for inviting me to review her new release.

Only 60 pages, but holy shit. I need more. I need way more of these two.

The fact that Delaney managed to get me all excited, worked up AND freaking horny in the matter of 60 pages is absolutely incredible.

Delaney captured me from the very first page. I mean, how could you not with an author note like that? Holy crap. I've never felt more called out and more understood in my entire life. So thank you for that.


We meet 'Nova' who has a lot more going on than we initially think. There are still so many layers to unwrap there. All we know right now is that she's keeping her head low, trying to outrun her past and the people in it. Earning money is her priority and what's better than dancing? Exactly. Selling your body.

Interesting? Yes. Safe? Absolutely not.

Especially not when the man who bought you for the night chases you through the woods after almost scaring you to death with a 'gift'.


❝One chance, little Nova, to outrun the darkness.❞



There's no outrunning the hunter, and no outrunning your past.

That becomes abundantly clear to Nova. No matter how far, no matter how fast you run. They'll catch you.

I can't wait to read more of this story. Honestly, Delaney delivered a masterpiece in just 60 pages. I can't even imagine what she'll do with a full length novel. I'm excited. That's for sure.

“His voice is deep and raspy, and I want to hear every dirty thing he wants to do to me. I want to be his lamb for slaughter.”

Honest ARC Review for Run For Me by Delaney Dare: When Gianna’s mom married she thought she was finally getting the father she always wanted. Instead she got a monster. After running away from her family Gianna starts working at a SinSations strip club. Things have been going ok until she is bought for the night by a mysterious man. She has a wild sexy night only to find out the man she has been bought by is not as mysterious as she though. This was a prequel to the full length novel. Although this is short it really packed a punch. It was steamy, engaging, mysterious, and made me curious to know what will happen next.

This review is for Run for Me: A Carnal Sins Novella by Delaney Dare
Whoa!!! 🔥🔥🔥🥵🥵🥵 This may be a novella but, it sure didn’t lack heat and intensity!
Gianna has been working as a stripper until one night she decides she wants to go a bit further. She has no idea what she’s in for… and she definitely has no idea who’s web she may have gotten herself stuck in until it’s too late. She runs for her life, but it’s definitely not fast enough or far enough from her past.

🔥Quick Notes🔥
Novella
Dark Romance? YES!
Forbidden romance vibes? Um, definitely an affirmative!
Suspense? Absolutely YES!
Did I absolutely need more after this? YES, YES, YES
Prequel, so there may be a bit of a cliff….

★★Book Review★★

Strip Tease is a contemporary romance collection that follows the journey of the women of SinSations as they navigate the danger and hazards of the job.

Run For Me by Delaney Dare is a dark romance. This is the first book of Delaney's that I have read, and it won't be my last. I was pulled in from the first chapter and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I can't wait for The Saint to be released in 2023 so I can get more of Gianna and Ledger's story.

Run For Me by Delaney Dare will be featured in the upcoming Limited Edition Dark Romance Anthology StripTease and I just preorder the rest of this story because I need it ASAP!

"I want to touch the flame. For once in my pathetic life, I want to burn."

Our FMC, Gianna who is going by alias name Nova is in hiding. Currently working at a gentlemen's club. We know she is running from her father, but we don't know why. When she signs up for the Elite list to make more money...it's a fancy way of prostituting herself out.

Only when she comes to her job, she realizes she's in way over her head. In the back of her mind, she can't help but hope it's the tall drink of water from back in the club...but dreams don't really come true, right? And in the off chance her wish does come true, there's no such thing as a fairy tale prince.

"I'm unfortunate to know fairy tales aren't real and that castles usually hold a monster, never a prince."

Her night may be welcomed with orgasms, but it's a night shell never forget. When she realizes the man who bought her for a night knows her, she realizes everything she has done for the past year and a half comes crashing down and now she has no idea if she can ever escape again.

"A bird in a pretty cage still isn't free to fly, and I need to soar. I can't be free with clipped wings and a collar around my neck."

This little novella was crazy good, and I couldn't stop turning the pages. I need the rest of the story ASAP! I am thoroughly looking forward to more. This is also my first time reading anything by this author and I have to go check out the rest of her stuff, pronto!

*Overall 5/5
*Heat 3/5
*Multiple first person POV
*Step-brother kink
*Primal play
*Maybe 1 hr to read, if that...

RUN FOR ME by Delaney Dare
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

WOW. WOW. WOW. WOW. (Owen Wilson Voice)

✨Run For Me is not an individual release and is part of the Strip Tease Anthology releasing October 4th ✨
✨this is an ARC review✨

I am OBSESSED with this novella by Delaney Dare. You know how sometimes a book just hooks you and you’re dying to read more of it? That is how I feel on this. I can’t tell you the heart drop I felt when I realized that I was at 98% finished and no where near ready for it to end!

The book introduces us to Gianna who is working at the club Sinsations under the name of Nova. She has been just dancing but now has signed up for the “Elites” where she will be purchased for the night by one of the clients of the club.

The man who she is sold to for the night has a delicious game he wants to play with her and that’s literally just the beginning of the intensely dark and arousing night that will leave you panting reading. Ledger was SO hot to read. An animalistic, dark predator with a twist.

Thank you SO much for the ARC Delaney! As you know I am impatiently waiting to read more of this story and need it ASAP!

BLURB

I’ve been dancing around the pole for months, and I thought selling myself for the night wouldn’t be any different. I couldn’t have been more wrong.
Like a predator, he hunts me through the forest, but I can’t out run him. He’s stronger. Faster. And hell bent on making me his.
He told me not to escape, that he’d find me and punish me, but I can’t let myself be taken back to my old life. Back to the lies that await me. So I do what I do best.
I run.

I'm not letting you go just yet, little lamb.

I just finished Run For Me by Delaney Dare that will be featured in the upcoming Limited Edition Dark Romance Anthology StripTease and all I can say is....GIVE ME MORE! Delaney is a new to me author and I am so happy to have had the chance read & review this story.

This Novella is about "Nova" who's real name is Giana. She is hiding who she really is and working in a gentleman's club. Since she is always ready to run, she has decided the best way to be prepared is to make a large amount of money is to sell herself for the night. The club she works in is elite and all the clients are well vetted, but she has no idea who has bought her until after a game of predator / prey in the woods. But the hunter just realized his prey isn't just a random prize, she's so much more than that and things just got a little more complicated.

✔️ Primal Play
✔️ Stripper Heroine
✔️ You're MINE vibes
✔️ Did I mention primal play?

This Novella ends on a little cliffhanger and is the beginning of Gianna and Ledgers story. We get their full story in The Saint which releases June 2023. This cannot come fast enough, I am so excited to read it.

**My review is for RUN FOR ME by Delaney Dare**

You can find Run For Me in Strip Tease: a Contemporary Romance Collection. It is a novella in the Carnal Mayhem Series and serves as a prequel to book one, THE SAINT that is currently a WIP.

“Unlike the girls in fairytales and romance novels, I don’t need a man to swoop in and save me. I know what I am and who I’ve become. I’m not so delusional as to think I’m anything special, not anymore.”

Gianna finds herself on the run from her stepfather and his sons, who are trying to force her into a life she doesn’t want. To make ends meet, she dances at a strip club. She signs up for the elites where customers can “buy” her for a private show. During her very first private job, she finds herself terrified and being chased through the woods. After all is said and done, she realizes this man is someone from her past. She only has one choice, so does what she knows best, she runs.

“I’m not letting you go just yet, little lamb. Right now you’re mine, and I protect what’s mine.”

From page one, I was sucked in and couldn’t put this book down. We are left with a cliffhanger and now I need The Saint asap to see how this all plays out.

This is a dark romance that includes a hot alpha male, a kick@ss independent woman, mystery, a bit of suspense and all the spice!!! Don’t wait, grab your copy today!!

Happy Reading!!

Reviewing Run For Me by Delaney Dare

1st person/dual pov
Spice: 4/5

What a story! As soon as it started I was drawn in by what could have happened in the FMC's past to have her on the run. Then there is the mysterious man in the club that buys her for the night. The things that happen once she's his I did not see happening quite the way it did but it was thrilling! It had my heart pounding and me holding my breath a little as the situation unfolded between them. And boy did things get dirty!!
The ending is a cliffhanger and while I'm itching to read what happens next I have to say it was done very well. The only way I can think to explain it without giving anything away is that it wraps up this story in its entirety while leaving the perfect opening to transition into the next part of the story. I didn't feel like anything was missing or left unresolved as far as what happens in this novella. But it sure does get you excited for what is to come and I am so ready for it! Fingers crossed for a lot more running and chasing between these two in the future!

Also, I love that all the stories in this collection take place revolving around this club and it has me really looking forward to reading the rest of them!

❗️This is a review for Run for Me by Delaney Dare ❗️

Wow! I was not expecting to love this novella as much as I did. Not sure what I was even expecting, but dear god, I was NOT disappointed.

Run for Me has our main characters: Gianna and Ledger. Circumstances put Gianna in a difficult position and ultimately brought her back to Ledger. Stuck between taking an opportunity that will help her current circumstances or refraining to keep what morality she’s built for herself— Gianna is led to play a game that will have her in a fine line between listening to what she’s supposed to do or bend to the will of Ledger.

The plot and spice scenes were a perfect balance throughout this novella, and I literally was so sucked into this story that I didn’t realize I had finished it until… I did 😭. Although some may say that it’s too short or fast paced, it was PERFECT for me because it was a quick, captivating and well-written book. Not too much unnecessary details and a perfect buildup for the book that will come in June 2023. Will DEFINITELY be looking forward to it!!

Run For Me - Delaney Dare
Wow! This is my first book by Delaney Dare and I absolutely loved it! Part of the ‘Strip Tease’ Collection releasing October 4, Run for Me is a novella about Gianna, a stripper with nothing to lose. She thinks she’s safely hidden behind that pole. Until HE purchases one night with her, and she quickly becomes prey to his games. I’m not going to bother rating the steam here, because it’s off the charts. This is primal play at its best. I hate to give too much away since this is technically a prequel to Delaney Dare’s upcoming dark reverse harem “The Saint” releasing next year. Even being short, the world building and character development is fantastic. The tension and build up is exciting. It was intense, suspenseful, and captivating. I thought I was just ARC’ing a short taboo romance, but what I got was so much more. My dark romance loving heart is so happy. I need The Saint NOW!!!!
Thank you to the author for gifting me this exciting book in exchange for an honest review!
