These are three novellas in one which I really enjoyed and the characters were all connected
Make me want was first up and I really liked Lucy & Gideons story, personally this felt the most fleshed out story and I loved the tropes in this one. The story moved quickly but helped to introduce all of the characters well and was a great first story.
Make me need was next with Trish and Cam, I again really enjoyed the tropes but I didnt feel this hit as well as the first and felt a little rushed, it also had spoilers for the third novella and would have worked as the last novella so I am unsure why it was second
Make me yours was last and I have to say this was my least favourite, I didnt enjoy the trope but Becka was one of my favourite characters in all three novellas.
Overall this was great from Katee Roberts and I can't wait to read more!
Unfortunately I didn’t download this to my kindle in time and it has since been archived.
Rated as 4 stars to maintain the average.
This is a collection of three novellas from the Dare collection. The trilogy were previously published as part of the author’s Make Me collection.
As the book is part of the Dare collection they are more explicit and sexual compared to say Mills and Boon Modern but not as much as Black Lace novels.
All three novellas are loosely connected as the characters are either friends or relatives and they appear, somewhat briefly, in each other’s stories.
I would have preferred for the sake of continuity if the third book had actually been published as the second.
On a personal note I don’t really enjoy reading novellas. They are just too compact and often seen rushed as the author tries to fit a story in to too smaller space.
A collection of contemporary sensual romances all loosely connected. The first couple were friends and had the chance of something more. The second is a workplace romance, and the third has an unexpected consequence.
iends little sister. Trish just cant seem to help throwing herself at Cam. I couldnt really connect with these two characters. Like i did in the first story.
Make me yours
Becka is Lucy's little sister, we meet her in the first story. Now its Lucy and Gideons wedding , Becka is a bridesmaid despite hating all things wedding. When she spots Aaron at the wedding the chemistry is strong. They spend one amazing night together and then part. Three months later Becka realises she has been left with more than memories of their night together. Aaron isnt going to let Becka do this on her own. She reluctantly agrees to move into his penthouse. The chemistry is strong between these two. But can Becka let go of her insecurities and let Aaron into her heart?
I do think this should have been the second story as its linked to the first and would have made more sense. Give the whole book 4 stars as the second story wasnt as enjoyable.
Dare me to want you.
Come on its the Dare series.
You know it's gonna deliver the stories we all love to read. It will give you all the emotional pushing and pulling we like to have our little escapes to, from the real world.
Keep them coming.
Such joy.
I really enjoyed this one!
This was a great compilation of stories that features the same group of people, so you were able to follow them through the books and learn more about their characters and personalities as the book progressed.
All of the stories had a good storyline, I enjoyed reading about how they met ad the outcomes to the stories too – all were great, and I thought they were quite addictive reads
It is 4 stars from me for this one – highly recommended!
I really enjoyed this being the 3 books in one as sometimes purchasing all the Novellas can be quite expensive!
Make me want was first up and I really liked Lucy & Gideons story, it was my favourite of the three. The writing was chef's kiss. 4.5⭐️
Make me need second was ok, it wasn't mind blowing but wasn't awful either, but I felt myself trying to rush it to see if the next was as good as the first. 3 ⭐️
Make me yours was last and I have to say this was my least favourite, I'm just not a fan of this trope. That being said the writing was still good! 3⭐️
Overall this was great from Katee Roberts and I can't wait to read more! Ending with a 3.75⭐️
Dare me to want you by Katee Roberts.
Make Me Trilogy.
This is 3 novellas in one. In the first book is Lucy and Gideons story. I loved this.how they were with each other. This was my favourite out of all 3.
Next is Trish and Cameron. I did like this story but 1st book was my favourite.
Next is Aaron and Becka's story. Again a good read. 5*.
This is a new bind-up of some of Katee Robert's previously published books from the Make Me series.
Make Me Want- 3 stars
Lucy wants to find a husband and enlists her friend Gideon for help finding someone suitable. She asks Gideon for lessons in seduction.
Make Me Need- 4 stars
Cameron is a grump so when his friend’s sister starts working for his company he struggles with her sunny personality. Trish makes Cameron feel things he shouldn’t especially as she is his best friend’s younger sister.
Make Me Yours- 3 stars
Becka and Aaron spend a night together and they don’t plan to see each other again until Becka announces she is pregnant.
Make Me Need was my favourite from this collection. It had the brother's best friend and grumpy/sunshine trope which are both tropes that I love. This collection has the classic Katee Robert spice and overall I really enjoyed this.
I really enjoyed the first story between Gideon and Lucy. After Gideon broke the news years prior that her then Fiancé Jeff was a cheating scumbag, Lucy decides to recruit head hunter Gideon to find a husband for her. No incredible romance but one of convenience and mutual agreement so she could secure a promotion from her sexist bosses at her law firm. She also requests some more...private tutoring from Gideon because she's been celibate since her split, and he certainly did a number on her confidence and security when it came to sex.
I loved the pace of this story. I almost forgot it was a novella. Their chemistry was on fire, and the spice was intense!
4.5⭐️
Next up were Trish and Cameron. Trish was hired at her brother's business as she needed money and definitely didn't want to move back with her mother. Her brother (who we find out in book 3 is the hero, and spoiler alert for his story in book 2) is away so she comes in to improve the office space and provide her opinion on some things, but it turns out her boss and brothers best friend Cameron, a seemingly rude introvert, is intense and protective and their spark is more like a bonfire. This story was great too. Sometimes I found the miscommunication infuriating, but I think there has to be a level of drama to keep you enticed.
3⭐️
Now finally, for Aaron and Becka's story. I was really confused reading this last. I felt like I'd skipped a book and had to remember who the characters were as they're introduced in book 1. I didn't finish this one entirely, as I already knew the ending. I think it's important for the publisher to swap books 2 and 3 around but also include Roman's story, which is listed on Goodreads as his character is mentioned through book 1 so it seemed the natural next step for his story to follow.
I liked them all combined in one. Sometimes buying and reading these short novellas can get expensive and are over before you know it, so having them combined was a good idea.
I've read plenty of Katee Robert books previously, from Neon Gods to some of her more...unconventional books involving Kraken and Gargoyles, so reading her more 'tame' stories was refreshing.
Thanks so much!
Kate Robert has quickly become one of my favourite smut authors! I love how unapologetic her characters are and how deeply they love each other. I will always be a fan of her books!
A collection of contemporary sensual romances all loosely connected. The first couple were friends and had the chance of something more. The second is a workplace romance, and the third has an unexpected consequence.
With likeable protagonists and intense chemistry, these fast-paced stories are the perfect escapist romantic read with lots of heat. I like the characters, the couple dynamic and the romance in all these stories.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher.
I devoured this in a sitting, i loved the Main characters of Lucy and Gabriel. I was frequently yelling at one of them at least to stop being so daft and talk to the other and I loved that I got slightly invested in them.
It was just enough will they won't they to keep you reading and lots of spice to keep you on your toes. I'l defiantly read more Katee Robert books going forward!
Sexy and fast paced, some tender moments outside the bedroom as we meet some great characters. The strong women are appealing and make you want them to overcome what is holding them back. A really good read.
I really enjoyed the first one, the second story was okay and the third one had my most hated trope so that was not a great ride.
Also, I feel the third story should have been the second one as that makes more chronological sense.
First story was the best - arranged marriage, alpha male what more could you want.
I didn't realise this was a trio of stories and I was kind of disappointed. I liked the characters I just felt everything was done too quickly, I wanted a bigger build up to the events rather than it going from 0-100. I also felt the stories didn't flow in the right way, I thought Aaron and Becka's story should've been before Cameron and Trish's. I enjoyed the stories and the characters I just needed some more in depth development
