Decklan Dare knows about the unexpected loss of loved ones and for this reason, he values control in all areas of his life. Amanda Collins enjoys the freedom she finds in casual encounters without the emotional connection a relationship brings. They meet and their physical attraction is mutual but both experience feelings that could run deeper - if they drop their guard and let each other in. Decklan is first to trust, but when he discovers the secret Amanda's been hiding, will he forgive? Or will he rebuild every wall before she has a chance to explain?

In Dare To Love, we met Ian Dare, a very controlling man who falls for Riley Taylor. In Dare To Desire, we met the loving, caring, also controlling Alex Dare who falls for Madison, someone he had met through Riley. In Dare To Surrender, we met Gabe Dare, a funny and controlling man who falls for Isabelle.

In Dare To Submit, we meet Decklan Dare, Gabe’s brother and Alex and Ian’s cousin. When I finished reading the first three books, I knew I loved Alex out of all three but Decklan came in the picture and I was a goner. I am not one to like a controlling man, which is why I didn’t like Ian that much, but with Decklan, I forget I don’t like men that are controlling. He literally makes the reader yearn for him to come alive before our eyes and do unimaginable things. I fell for this guy immediately and I wanted to read more of those sex scenes. I love a good adult book but not those that only have sex after sex (except Fifty Shades). Dare To Submit is FULL of sex scenes and I needed more of those with Decklan. He is not only controlling but he has a GREAT heart and a great personality.

I always love when I can relate to the characters, and in a way, I related to Amanda with the body image issues (not because I want to be skinny, but because I actually want/need to gain). Amanda grew up hearing her mother say she needed to lose weight and that caused her to have body image issues and her self-esteem was very low. When she meets Decklan, it surprises her how he doesn’t get disgusted by her body.

Amanda and Decklan have pasts that are disturbing and hurtful but in each other they find a safe haven and they find love.

Is running away easier than giving in? Decklan Dare has everything he wants and he wants Amanda Collins. Which is perfect since Amanda wants him — especially his no-strings-attached approach to casual sex. Emotions are overrated, but the sex isn't. They both know it and both desire it. But as their connection deepens, Decklan, a man who's used to being in charge, finds that Amanda can't be controlled. But she has her reasons. She just might be hiding something — something that won't let her dare to get too close.
