Dare to Love Reviews
-
This was a cute story. There wasn't much to it, but for such a quick read it was pretty good. I liked how Laura was made to take responsibility for her reckless ways, and didn't get away with it just because her dad's the sheriff. I thought the romantic part was a little rushy, but it was still cute. Jennifer was a good friend to Laura and I liked seeing her meet a nice guy. All in all, a good read.

Una lectura...mona. Un libro muy breve, infantil, podría haberse sacado mas jugo de la historia pero bueno.

This book was OK. I wasn't particularly engaged in it, but the writing didn't suck. I would best describe it as cute.
The plot is that Laura, the sheriff's daughter, has been pulled over for speeding one two many times. To try to reform her, the police get a brilliant idea to have her join Explorer's Club, a club for teens interested in law enforcement. Laura meets a boy named Dare, and sparks fly and all that--you get the picture.
These are the reasons this book only got three stars. It was a bit cliché for me. Boy meets girl, girl falls in love, other girl involved, etc. etc. It felt a bit rushed, and probably could have gone on longer. That would have really helped the story. Also, I felt rather annoyed with Dare. I found him a bit of a jerk at first, shocking as that seems. There were a bit of grammar mistakes, only one or two that didn't damage the story in any way--just a misplaced or nonexistent comma here and there. But, considering the last two free kindle books I've read were written by authors that really should just give up trying to write, this was actually pretty good. The author didn't suck. With a bit of polishing, this book could be good. One thing I would definitely suggest--try and get a new cover. It didn't really wow me, and the cover is a really important part of the story for me, otherwise I might not buy the book. -
No soy fanática de los osos de peluches, y no me gustó el nombre del chico pero estuvo bien. Aunque no me gustan mucho las historias cortas.

Solo para tener algo que leer. Una linda historia, que podría haberse extendido un poco más, pero terminó abruptamente.

Synopsis: "It isn’t easy being the sheriff’s daughter. When Laura Tyler is pulled over for speeding for the third time in as many months, her father gives her an ultimatum: join the station’s explorers’ club, or lose her car for the summer. She just can’t be without her car, and joins the club, despite the fact that she has zero interest in law enforcement. She does, however, develop an interest in fellow Explorer Scout, Dare, who it happens was her arresting … adolescent.
Does Dare have feelings for her too? Or, has another explorer caught his eye?"
My Review: This was a emotion and drama filled book. After reading so many adult romances it was kind of refreshing to have the innocence of a Young Adult romance. It was interesting to watch Laura mature with a little support and guidance from Dare. I loved reading about her mending relationship with her father. Of course you can't have a teen romance without the drama of the 'other girl' and the jealousy that comes with her. A great book about facing your fears, letting go of grief and taking responsibility. It was a sweet little romance wrapped in an interesting tale. -
Book Review- Dare to Love by Rosemarie Naramore
Laura is pulled over again for speeding. This makes three times in three months. She is humiliated when the deputy arrests her. Her father, the sheriff, is furious and the cutest boy, Dare, gets to watch and be a part of her downfall.
As punishment she is encouraged to join the Explorers group. Laura has to face her classmates and Dare during the meetings. She is embarrassed and hurt that everyone thinks she is reckless on purpose. She also has feelings for Dare but is unsure of herself and him. Her nemesis Courtney is determined to keep Laura from Dare.
This YA story was interesting. The insecurities of a teenage girl seemed to be the theme. I liked the idea behind the story with the hidden issues from death of two parents. It would have been a deeper story if the author would have explored that avenue a bit.
Instead I thought Laura was annoying and the writing a bit choppy in places. The story had so much potential I wish the author would have did more. I give it a 2.5 out of 5. -
This is the first book I read by Rosemarie Naramore. I really liked Dare's character. I thought he was handsome & smooth. I loved the ending. This was short, cute, love story I enjoyed reading. I would read more books by this author.
