In hindsight, I should have figured out that Kat Donnelly’s secret crush on me rivaled my own. But in my defense, she’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met, with a kind heart and smart mind to match.
Which naturally makes her way out of my league.
She’s got dreams and ambitions bigger than a small-town police officer could ever offer, and all I have is a lifetime of being not-good-enough.
Then there are her four older brothers who’ve made it clear to me and every other first responder in Dogwood Cove that she is off limits.
But when Kat’s best friend dares her to ask me out, I can’t resist the only person to see beneath the surface to the secrets I’ve tried to hide?
The problem is, with small towns and big families, nothing stays a secret for long.
Dare To Kiss You is perfect for fans of steamy small town romance centered around a big family who love to get in each other’s business. It has plenty of swoon, plenty of spice, light hearted banter, quirky small town vibes, low angst and a guaranteed HEA. It is a standalone, and the first full length novel in the Donnellys of Dogwood Cove series.
Julia Jarrett is a busy mother of two boys, a happy wife to her real-life book boyfriend and the owner of a rescue dog from Guatemala and another one from Taiwan. She lives on the West Coast of Canada and when she isn’t writing contemporary romance novels full of relatable heroines and swoon-worthy heroes, she loves to run, practice yoga, drink wine and read.
