Author’s Note

Dear Reader,

I always pictured Dare Me as the sunny epilogue to the series. I knew Stella and Lochlan were going to end up together since before I finished writing Make Me and after everything this family has been through, a fun, tropical romp seemed in order.

This is definitely the lightest book in the series and more resembles a dark rom-com (though don’t hold me to that in case you don’t find me funny).

However, it is still a dark romance and may contain sensitive subjects or triggers. If you have a question about a topic that isn’t listed, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at hello@summerotoole.com.

This book will not be for everyone and please for the love of God, if you know me in real life don’t read. But if you do remember: this is a work of fiction.

Dark romance is an incredible, beautiful, gritty way of storytelling that people enjoy for many different reasons.  Reading and writing about something does not mean you condone it in real life. If that was true, Stephen King should have been locked up long ago. 

Please note this is not meant to accurately represent or depict safe sex or kink. 

Enjoy as you see fit,

Summer
