WHEN YOU DARE is Book One in the series Men Who Walk the Edge of Honor from author Lori Foster which is set to release from Harelquin April 26, 2011. At first I wasn't sure what to make of it or where the story was going. I mean, yes I knew the plot, but I have to say that the love connection took quite a long time. The books itself is approx 448 pages and with that being said there is a lot of drama going on. So I read it again. I felt I missed something and I was really uncomfortable with how I felt, I knew I just wasn't getting it. Feeling a little torn as to what to write I admit the second time I fell in love. The slow rise into love and trust for Dare and Molly was actually necessary, more so than I realized at first. It was as though I was watching two dear friends fall in love each day a little more intense.
The mystery of who exactly was responsible for taking Molly, or rather having her kidnapped and tortured surprised me at first, but made perfect sense and I was mad at myself for not figuring it out. Slowly and surely they discover who and why, but the journey to get there was fun, sensual and simply entertaining. With Molly's strength, she really does shine through as a strong woman. But realizing that she doesn't have to so strong and tough all the time, she can lean on Dare and accept his love as honest and true. That was her biggest challenge I think, not just finding who was out to harm her, but the fear of finally opening up her heart and letting Dare in.

The tougher they are, the harder they fall…
Professional mercenary Dare Macintosh lives by one hard and fast rule: business should never be personal. If a cause appeals to him and the price is right, he'll take the mission he's offered. But then the lovely Molly Alexander asks him to help her track down the men who'd had her kidnapped—and for the first time, Dare's tempted to combine work with pleasure.
Fiercely independent, Molly vows to trust no one until she's uncovered the truth. Could the enemy be her powerful, estranged father? The ex-fiancĂ© who still holds a grudge? Or the not-so-shy fan of her bestselling novels? As the danger heats up around them, the only anchor Molly has is Dare himself. But what she feels for him just might be the most frightening thing of all…
