A swoon-worthy romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!


A hate to love, second chance romance.


Just how wrong is it to want my best friend's little sister?


And, how do you fix a broken heart? This inquiring mind wants to know. It probably doesn’t matter though because Nora hates me.


If you ever wondered, it is possible to live and work with someone in a small town and not speak to said person for months. That’s how long Nora ignores me after I tell her commitment isn’t for me.


I didn’t know I was already in love with her. I didn’t know I was breaking my own heart by telling myself it was too complicated to fall for my best friend’s sister.


All I want now is to find the way back to us.

What to Expect

✔️ A broody ex-military pilot

✔️ Best friend’s sister

✔️ Off limits

✔️ Frenemies to lovers

✔️ Hate to love

✔️ Second chance 

My rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

My review:

Back to Us is the fourth book in the Dare With Me series.  It was the first book in the series that I have read and I must admit I captivated by the story and wanted to read the series from the beginning.  The author quickly brings the reader up to date so there was not an issue reading it as a stand-alone.  The book starts a couple of months after the main characters have broken off their friends-with-benefits relationship. 

Nora was a pilot for Walker Adventures, her family’s business, which did guide flight expeditions and delivered supplies in Alaska.  Nora’s father had been in and out of her family’s life throughout her childhood and had broken her mother’s heart.  She learned early in life that you could not trust a man.  She thought she would never fall for a man and so a friends-with-benefits relationship sounded simple when she and Gabriel started their fling.  When her feelings grew and she fell in love with him, she told him she wanted more from their relationship he refused.  Gabriel’s mother had never been an active part of his life and he was determined to never be in a committed relationship.  But after Nora split up with him, he realized he had come to love her.  Now he wants another chance with her but she’s not sure if she can trust him again. 

This was a charming story of family, friendship, and love.  It was beautifully written and paced perfectly.  The characters and storyline were developed and the attraction between the main characters was blazing.  I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book and was sad to see it end.  It left me with a smile on my face and the desire to read the other books in the series.

I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
