if you dare: 3.75/5. adventurous and exciting with an interesting secondary romance. i just wished they would have apologized more to each other for being so mean in the beginning, and i felt like the ending was a little rushed. 

if you desire: 3.75/5. it was cute and interesting, but hugh isnt my fav hero. 

if you deceive: 3.75/5. i wanted ethan to grovel a little more before the end! but overall i did enjoy this. for a pretty emotional book, it was weirdly funny in some parts. 

overall, i liked this series but wanted to like it more than i did. there were some really good scenes, tho, and i still love kresley cole.
