Review: Dare you to by Kate Mcgarry

I have recently discovered Netgalley where you can get galleys of new and forthcoming titles to feed your e-reader. The only ask is that you review the titles. As a voracious reader I am always keen to keep my e-reader topped up!
My first review is for a teen novel by a Kate Mcgarry, an American author I am not familiar with.

Dare You To is about Beth, a girl with a troubled and traumatic past and Ryan, the golden boy who seems to have it all. Beth and Ryan are brought together by a dare, Ryan's failure to get her phone number only whets his appetite when Beth turns up on his home turf. What starts as a dare turns into something more serious as the secrets they are both hiding are gradually revealed. Beth's past continues to impact on her life and her loyalty to those left behind threatens to destroy her future.
I had not read any Kate Mcgarry before and this book is part of a series but each story is independent. The characters are believable and you care that they will find a solution to their problems without doubting that they will.
A good read for those who don't like their romances all sweetness and light with believable characters and a wellplotted storyline.
