Thoughts: I had so much fun reading Lucas and Heidi as a couple. They are forced in a fake relationship after he rescues her from an attack from a rival gang. The banter was fun between them. The sexual tension was great. They had the best chemistry that Lucas sees but Heidi does not want to admit it. This leads to some push and pull with the them. Heidi wants to sleep with him and Lucas will not until she admits they have good chemistry.

I enjoyed their characters as individuals. Both are strong-willed characters but at the same time know when to give in. I fell hard for Lucas. He is a true alpha male I just love to read about. The kind that is protective but at the same time is sweet, caring, not all talk and knows when he is wrong and can admit it. Heidi was fun, sassy and a smartmouth. I enjoyed her more because she likes him for all his flaws and is not ashamed of him.

Written in 1st dual POV that is not repetitive. I loved being in both the main characters heads. Few surprises that I did not see coming with the plot.

Dare to Run The Sons of Steel Row Jen McLaughlin 9780451477590 Books Reviews

Very good start to an exciting new Series. Love the hero and heroine. Chris was a real piece of work. Remains to be seen if he can redeem himself in the next book.
I loved all three books
Couldn't finish it. Too much telling, not enough showing. I just never got invested in either the story or the characters.
This book started off really good and had me intrigued. Once I hit the about the 70% mark I was honestly bored and it completely lost me.
This was a truly great read with a lot of steam, some action and suspense, and a struggle for a normal life in Boston's underbelly. Well written with intriguing characters. A recommended read.
I am constantly on the look out for new authors to read and it's a challenge to find new authors that I'm going to enjoy. I must admit to being a bit picky--I really want the author to make me FEEL something. I don't know that Ms. McLaughlin did that here. While I found the premise to be interesting; I do enjoy a dark character from time to time--I don't know that I was particularly rooting for Lucas or Heidi here.

As a brief overview, Lucas is a recently paroled felon who upon release gets right back into his gang and life of crime. Heidi is a bar owner who has a typical sad backstory involving foster care and living on the streets. I don't really know what it is that Lucas did for his gang but from what I was able to gather he was a pretty bad dude. He didn't really have any desire to get out of the life either--or he really didn't make any attempt at it anyway. Heidi was pretty bland as well. She was hot, that much was clear, and she stood up for herself a little bit, but I really like my female protagonists to have a steel backbone. I hate it when they fall in line with what the man dictates and she does do some of that here.

I suppose it could be considered a bit of a spoiler to say...

that there was a bit of a "twist" in this story but I must say I wasn't too surprised. I don't feel like I really got to know the characters and who they were as people. What was it that they saw in each other? I don't really know. It seemed like the typical insta-lust connection that leads to "love". But once they hooked up I wasn't engaged in the physical aspect of the story and didn't really feel the connection between the characters. We also had the really overdone device wherein they aren't being honest with each other and they proceed to assume the other's thoughts/feelings/actions incorrectly. To me it's just lazy to do that. I like it when characters TALK to each other.

This is one of those books that I was engaged enough to finish the story but will probably not remember the premise of it a month from now. I don't know that I'll seek out the next book in the series--especially if I have to pay $7.99 for it again. While I liked the premise the follow through left me wanting.
That, right there? It was why I’d fallen in love with him. He was this hardened, jaded soul, but with me…..well, he wasn’t. And it was only with me, so that meant something. He made me feel as if I was the only person on the the earth that mattered to him. The only one he showed this soft, sweet, lovable side to. It made what we had, however temporary it might be, all the more special.”

What an exciting, thrilling new read from Jen McLaughlin. I have to tell you, I have been a fan of her books for a while. And when I heard she was working on something new, I had to jump on it. Dare to Run was unlike anything I’ve read by her before and I loved every second of it.

Dare to Run is thrilling and captivating. It pulls you in instantly and captivates you the entire time. I loved the idea behind this story. I found it be very refreshing and so different from the other books that I’ve read by this author. Dare to Run is gritty and intense. The sexual tension just oozes from the pages. From the moment we meet up with Lucas and Heidi, we have to know more about them. They are both tough and have lived very difficult lives. Lucas is ready to move on and attempt to live a normal life. However his old gang didn’t get that memo and are not too thrilled about Lucas wanting to leave. Heidi was the last thing he needed in his life….Heidi is tough and is used to handling things on her own. She is intrigued by Lucas, but tries to stay away. Only, fate had other plans for the two of them. When Lucas saves Heidi’s life, the two of them will be forced together. And of course, the longer they are together, the harder it is to fight the attraction that is between them…..

Dare to Run was a quick and easy read for me. It was fast paced and intriguing. There was action and danger around every corner. There was never a dull moment. This book had me on the edge of my seat, wondering how things were going to play out. I loved all the great twists and turns; especially the one towards the end…I was not expecting it all. And of course you can’t forget about the steam. Let me tell you, there was no shortage of steam between Lucas and Heidi. Their chemistry was scorching and undeniable. I just loved watching the two of them trying to navigate through not only their feelings, but the dangerous situation that they were in.

Dare to Run is the first book in this exciting new series and it does not disappoint. I think this series is off to a fantastic start and I am looking forward to see what excitement and danger will lie ahead in the next installment.
