The Dare (The Bet #3) By Rachel Van Dyken




Boring Beth Lynn has always lived up to her nickname… until she wakes up in a hotel bed next to a sexy as sin state senator she re-connected with at a wedding the previous night. 

The biggest problem? She can't seem to remember anything about the night before except for crying into a box of cookies, and she’s pretty sure Grandma Nadine slipped something in her drink. And what should have been a one night stand turns into a six day adventure when Grandma whisks them off to Hawaii to save them from the ensuing media firestorm. 

Jace isn't looking for commitment — he believes he made that clear when he left the wedding with Beth. Then again, he can't remember much of anything other than the way her skin felt beneath his hands. Now he's stuck with her at some lame couple’s retreat and trying his hardest to fight the attraction only a woman like Beth could invoke. 

He doesn’t think it can get any worse. 

But one spider attack… A donkey ride from hell… And an unfortunate episode with Viagra tea — and there’s one thing Jace knows for sure: He should never have agreed to Grandma Nadine’s suggestion in the first place. 
Because if this isn’t paradise, and it isn’t a vacation — that only leaves one option. 

Survival. 

But to make it through alive… they might lose their hearts in the process.

When I read book two I honestly thought Grandma would stop her meddling ways, I mean, who else did she have to play cupid with. I was soooo wrong LOL the conniving woman did it again using Jace and Beth's past. A past they thought no one knew about lol. Wrong. 

I really did feel sorry for Beth during this book. Even though it ended happily, I still felt Beth went through the wringer and had the bad side of the relationship. She'd been called a prostitute, whore, boring, lame, nerd and even got dropped when Jace chose his job instead of her. 
When they made the wager at the beginning of their ''getaway'' and I air quote getaway lol, I thought it was going to go differently. Only, Rachel had a few hidden surprises that don't come out till the end. 

I will have to say Grandma in this one, is really funny. Have you ever watched couples retreat? This book kind of reminds me so much of that film lol
