Ratings and reviews

Brianne Prescott has spent her whole life being the only Prescott girl. Having to deal with four overprotective brothers hasn't always been fun....especially when it turns out that guys are after you only to get closer to said brothers. For once in her life Bri wants to be wanted just for herself....enter Dr. Hudson Northfield, best friend of her brother Braden. Hudson actually sees Bri for who she is and she likes it....a lot! After going away together for Hudson's cousin's wedding, their romance really heats up. Bri and Hudson both feel as though they have found their person, too bad Hudson has a secret his is keeping that could ruin everything. Luckily, the stars align and Bri and Hudson find their happy ending. Dare to Tease by Carly Phillips is a sexy, brother's best friend trope novella in the Dare Nation series. I just adored Hudson. All he has ever wanted was a normal family....nothing like his rich, pompous parents and he found that with Bri. Together they make a perfect relationship where they both just completed the other.
