The Bully's Dare

"Go on a date with me or I'll beat up your best friend." A line that shouldn't have worked, but did. When your BFF is in peril, what's a girl to do?

Jason King is used to getting what he wants. And he wants me. No clue why. I'm a geeky introvert. I must have that just-turned-eighteen, new-girl-on-the-block smell.

Jason is popular. Cocky. His dad is richer than God. He has his crew have dedicated their summer to tormenting my best friend, Donovan.

Donovan fights back with quick tongue and a sense of humor as dark as his clothes. But he’s tasted enough of Jason's knuckle-sandwiches to last a lifetime. Which is where I step in. One date with Jason and the bullying stops. It's a no-brainer.

So I let Jason take me out for ice cream. What's the worst that can happen. Right?

Except Jason's piercing blue eyes send a delicious shiver through me that has nothing to do with my mint chocolate-chip. Donovan is going to hate me for this.
