It’s release day for Jennifer Bonds’ Once Upon a Dare. I am so excited for this sexy new contemporary romance. Jennifer is sharing an excerpt with us and a fantastic giveaway, so be sure to check out all the release day festivities!
Advertising guru Olivia Masterson is all work and no play. But on the eve of earning her dream promotion, her best friend dares her to drop her ice queen façade for one night and seduce a sexy stranger. Olivia's worked her ass off to get where she is-why the hell not? Cole Bennett never thought he'd run into his feisty one-night stand at the office, furious that he stole her promotion. No matter how hard she tries to ice him out, they can't seem to keep their hands to themselves...or their clothes on. Olivia's talented-maybe even more than Cole-so when his dropped hints to the boss net her a promotion of her own, he's ready to celebrate...until she accuses him of fueling office rumors that she slept her way to the top. She wants to earn her own way? Fine. So what the hell does a guy have to do to permanently melt an ice queen?

“Look, the other night was fun, but it had nothing to do with this
place, right? We both got what we wanted. Now we forget about it and
move on.”
“You can’t seriously expect me to act like it never happened.” Cole’s
words were carefully measured, his playful smile nowhere to be seen. If
she didn’t know better, she would have thought he was offended. His
words flowed like silk, but his gray eyes held a different emotion as he
pinned her with his gaze. Was she imagining it or did he look…
disappointed?
Shifting in her seat, she tried to quell her own warring emotions. They
needed to be able to work together, at least until she could figure
things out. And despite her racing pulse, she didn’t want him to know
how hard this was for her. She wouldn’t give him the satisfaction. Was
it her fault she couldn’t look at him without her blood pressure
spiking? Or that she couldn’t stop thinking about the smoking hot kisses
he’d lavished upon her body?
“And it would be so easy for you to forget?” he challenged, forcing her
to remember the feel of his sinful hands claiming her body and the way
he’d made her come over and over again. Damn him!
“Yes,” she lied, struggling to keep her tone light. She stood and moved
to the window. It was a desperate attempt to put more space between
them. The room had grown insufferably hot, a fact that had little to do
with the temperature and a lot to do with the way his gaze lingered on
her mouth, like he was imagining all the dirty things she could do with
it. Only he didn’t have to imagine, did he? He had firsthand knowledge.
“Olivia.”
She froze at the feel of his breath on her neck. With the protection of
the desk gone, she was defenseless. His hand snaked around her waist,
crushing her body to his. He leaned in, his breath hot on her cheek as
he pressed her body to the cool glass of the window with his massive
weight. His arousal found the swell of her ass and she melted against
the hard muscles of his chest, an unexpected gasp escaping her lips as
desire ripped through her.
It was all the invitation he needed.
