What do you do when the one person who understands you is the one person you never thought you’d trust? Katie McGarry’s Dare You To—the second title in her romantic Pushing the Limits series—uses two alternating voices to tell the edgy love story of Beth and Ryan, two seemingly opposite teens who share an irresistible spark.

Beth Risk had a tough childhood but even though several people abandoned her, Beth’s mom never left her side. That’s why Beth must keep the details about her home life a secret—otherwise, they’d send Beth away and her mother to jail. Beth protected her mom at all costs…until the fateful night when her uncle interfered and forced her to make a choice: her mother’s freedom or her own happiness. Now, Beth finds herself living with an aunt who doesn’t want her and attending a school that doesn’t understand her—at all. Except for the one guy who shouldn't get her, but does….

There’s only one person who can relate to Beth and, for some strange reason, it’s Ryan Stone. A popular baseball star and the town’s golden boy, Ryan is the last person Beth would ever expect to get her. But maybe he gets her because he has so many secrets of his own—secrets he can’t tell anyone, even the best friends who constantly dare him to do crazy things. The craziest? Ask out the skater girl who couldn’t be less interested in him. What began as a dare becomes an intense attraction that neither Ryan nor Beth expected. Suddenly, this perfect boy ends up risking his dreams—and his life—for the girl he loves. And Beth, the one who never lets anyone get too close, dares herself to let down her guard.
