Pitcher, Jaxon Prescott has a lot on his plate. Major League Baseball. Reputation as a player. And now? He’s on the verge of losing it all.

Amazing characters!. 4.5 Stars  This is book 3 in the Dare Nation series and it features Jaxon Prescott and Macy Walker. His reputation is becoming an issue for the professional baseball team he pitches for. She’s raising her teenage half sister, Hannah. Hannah’s mother is back in the picture after five years and wants custody of her. Jaxon and Macy need each other. Knowing his reputation, who knew he would be so serious about their arrangement. This is such a fantastic story line! It’s always a sexy adventure whenever you’re dealing with the Dare family. Each and every character in this book is fabulous!  I can’t wait for the next book.

More than a convenient marriage. Another hot Dare Nation story. Carly Phillips continues to write believable, flawed characters. A marriage of convenience that becomes more. Spending one night together Macy and Jaxon realize their chemistry is hot. She needs stability to make her case for keeping custody of her teenage sister. As a Major League Baseball picture with negative press he needs to clean up his public image. They come up with a plan to help each other out. Marriage is their answer, falling in love is the result. Are they mature enough to realize past hurts can be put aside or will they end things before their hearts become involved? I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

It’s a shame!. I did not like that the first three chapters was the same writing in the last chapters of the previous book. The author change the situation from an engagement party to a wedding. Changed the trouble Jaxon got in from having sex with his bosses daughter to getting in a fight at a bar. But all the writing was exactly the same. What the characters said and did was the same. Dear author, year readers are not stupid we remember what happens in other books.

Jaxon & Macy make a great team !. I love a good marriage of convenience especially when it is mutually beneficial to each person involved and they’ve already established that they have amazing chemistry. Jaxon and Macy are great together and make a great team! I love the ease at which they were able to fall into the day to day of being together out of the bedroom as well as in. As one would expect Macy’s 15 year old sister Hannah is quite a challenge in many different ways and it was surprising to see how easily Jaxon handled that. I loved this book from start to finish and look forward to more from this series!

Home run. This was the book in the care nation series I have been waiting for, Jaxson and Macy did not disappoint. Their story was so good. The baseball player in a family of football players and Macy just trying to live as a guardian to her sister. I could not put this book down and you couldn’t help but root for them and the family to work out. Now I am anxiously awaiting Bradens book, he looks interesting. Carly Phillips never disappoints and always keeps you wanting more.

Dare to Play. ARC for honest review with no compensation received from BookSprout Dare to Play is book 3 in the Dare Nation series by Carly Phillips and oh my...what a book! Jason Prescott, MLB player, playboy whose reputation takes a major dive when he’s caught with the GM‘s daughter, involved in a brawl and it’s all over social media. He is told he needs to lay low or find a wife… Macy Walker is guardian to her half-sister after their father passes away. When the girl’s mother comes back Macy needs a stable home life to show the courts in order to keep her half-sister. What happens next...a marriage of convenience, secrets, fixing problems, and so much more. Will Jason and Macy find happiness together? Only time will tell...

An easy, feel good read!. I really enjoyed this book and loved Jaxon and Macy. Jaxon was so much more than a player, literally and figuratively than everyone thought. Even though he didn’t think he had it in him for any kind of relationship, he instinctively knew what Macy needed. I liked Macy a lot. She didn’t play games and didn’t keep her thoughts and/or doubts to herself. This was an easy, feel good read.

Confirmed Bachelor falls hard!. This declared bachelor fell hard! Jaxon and Macy have a night of fun, only the paps catch Macy’s walk of shame the next morning and puts custody of her sister in jeopardy. So what do they do? Get married. Only Jaxon finds himself falling for Jaxon and Macy for him, but they don’t know the other fell. Very fun, steamy read! Great addition to this series! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Macy & Jax have their hands full. Wow, I have so much to say about this book, but I'm not sure where to start. First, Macy and Jax are perfect for each other. They both need family stability, but neither one has the time or desire to get involved in a relationship. So they decide to get married to fix their problems. When has this ever turned out the way it is planned in life? Jax has overbearing family members (aka his brother Manager and sister PR rep) telling him to clean up his act or else. Macy has a stepmother who has been out of the picture for the last five years that has now decided to return and claim custody of her daughter. So they decide to get married to solve their problems. Yet they never planned on falling in love. Of course, this is a HEA story and ends well for the couple. But I really enjoyed the underlying story of raising a teenager whose mom just returned and all she wants is to be with her. The attitude, the escapades. I laughed and yet I also felt sympathy for Macy. She has her hands full, but she's doing the best she can.

WOW!. Jaxon Prescott is in need of an image improvement but marriage. After a night with Macy maybe marriage won’t be so bad. Macy’s step mother is back in town causing trouble with Hannah which is easy to do with a teenager anyways. Needing to show a secure and steady life maybe Jaxon’s offer isn’t to crazy if she can keep her heart out if it. Sadly that is not the case. Loved showed these two how much they needed each other!!!

Page Turner. Hot baseball player and marriage of convenience? Sign me up. Jaxon and Macy’s love story is unconventional but kept the pages turning. They both met when things were going bad in their lives. He was about to potentially lose his pro baseball career for poor behavior and life choices in general and she was about to lose custody of her younger sister when her sister’s mom returns to town. The only way to survive both their situations was to play the stable and in love card and get married. What started out as convenience turns into something more. I have to admit, I wasn’t sure how this whole story was going to pan out. But I loved the arc of their story. I knew there was going to be bumps in the road along the way. It was fun to see them navigate this road they decided to take. These two were definitely stronger together. Loved every turn of the page.

Loved it. Dare to Play ticked all the boxes for me, from Alpha males, to feisty heroines, to family love and support and I was captivated from the first to the last page. This is pitcher Jaxon Prescott and Macy Walker’s story and it was a highly entertaining read. Jaxon is on the brink of losing it all, his career is at risk thanks to his off field behaviour. He needs to fix his reputation and he needs to do it quickly. When it is suggested that Jaxon needs a wife to help clean up his image and his reputation, his sister’s best friend seems like a likely candidate. Macy needs to prove to the courts that she is suitable to take on the custody of her step sister. Helping Jaxon will give her the stability she needs to ensure she gets custody. What happens when lines are crossed? The chemistry and attraction between them sizzles even as they try to resist. I loved the build up of their relationship, it was humorous, sweet, romantic and steamy. What happens when emotions become involved? Will they walk away or will this marriage of convenience turn in to true love? One click and find out.

Great Read. I love this series and I love everything about the Dare extended family, with every new book I find a new book boyfriend to fall for and I fell hard and fast for Jaxon Prescott. Star pitcher Jaxon Prescott has once again found himself all over social media and the news but not in a good way, this playboy has a knack of hitting the news for all the wrong reasons and now he needs to settle down and put his playboy image behind him so what better than to find himself a fake bride. Macy Walker is guardian to her teenage step sister but she is being taken into court to prove she is a suitable to keep custody of the sister she loves. Macy is best friends with Jaxon’s sister so she knows the man and when he suggests a marriage of convenience, she realises what has she got to lose..... But what happens when feelings come in to play, what happens when lines are crossed ..... The chemistry is sizzling, the banter witty and I loved watching this couples relationship go from friends to lovers and from fake to reality. This book ticked all my boxes, I swooned, I smiled, I laughed and I sighed and I highly recommend you one click this gem of a read.

Couldn’t put it down!. I am always so amazed at the totally different stories that Carly Phillips can “weave”!! I absolutely love reading about the Dare Family and their many life challenges and triumphs! This story “starts with a bang” (pun intended?), and the energy just kept going to the end. Couldn’t put it down! Absolute must read! Loved it!! I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

sexy and inviting. DARE TO PLAY is the third instalment in Carly Phillips’ contemporary, adult DARE NATION erotic, romance series a spin off from the author’s DARE TO LOVE series. This is twenty-eight year old, professional baseball pitcher Jaxon Prescott, and twenty-eight year old, Web Designer Macy Walker’s story line. DARE TO PLAY can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary. You do not have to have read the previous series to understand or follow the current timeline but like the original series, there is a back story involving the Dare family, and by extension, the Prescott family as well. Told from dual third person perspectives (Macy and Jaxon) DARE TO PLAY follows the marriage of convenience between twenty-eight year old, professional baseball pitcher Jaxon Prescott, and twenty-eight year old, Web Designer Macy Walker. Macy Walker is the guardian of her fifteen year old half sister Hannah since the death of their father eight months earlier but the return of Hannah’s mother is suspicious as the woman has not acknowledged Hannah’s existence in a number of years. Jaxon Prescott is the bad boy of baseball, and his off-field antics have pushed management too far- issuing our hero an ultimatum-either Jaxon settles down including a possible marriage, or face suspension or a trade to another team. A one-night stand with his sister’s best friend Macy results in a paparazzi nightmare for both Jaxon and Macy. In an effort to assuage team owners and thusly his family, by mutual agreement, a marriage of convenience between Macy and Jaxon would solve both of their problems. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Macy and Jaxon, and the potential fall-out as their time together comes to a close. The relationship between Macy and Jaxon is a best friend’s brother/ little sister’s best friend relationship that begins as a one-night stand. When both of their lives begin to implode, a marriage of convenience is the best of scenarios in an effort to ease both of their problems. One week of wedding preparations, and the ongoing threats by Hannah’s birth mother, culminate in a destination honeymoon where our couple begin to fall in love but all is not well upon their return home as Hannah’s mother begins to show her true colors. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text. We are reintroduced to Jaxon’s siblings: sister Bri (and Macy’s best friend), Austin and Quinn (Dare to Desire), Damon and Evie (Dare to Tempt #2) and Dr. Braden Prescott, Uncle Paul, as well as the introduction of Macy’s half-sister Hannah, and her mother Lilah. Braden’s story is next in DARE TO STAY. DARE TO PLAY is a novella-length story of family and friendships, relationships and love; a marriage of convenience wherein our couple will quickly discover they have more in common including falling in love. The character driven premise is sexy and inviting; the romance is seductive and captivating-the chemistry is spicy and strong; the characters are dynamic and colorful.
