He’s a board game champion, but can he win her heart?

Lia Walker burned the bridges—and her boss’s tie—when she quit her job at a car dealership to go work for the chancellor of a prestigious university. But when she arrives only to find out she can’t start her job, she’s burning with only one question: how will she pay her rent?

Garrison McGarville returned from working in Europe a champion—of a Ticket to Ride board game tournament. But his latest job—informing a distressed beauty she doesn’t actually have a job yet—has him feeling more like a loser.

When Garrison comes up with what he hopes is a game-winning move, will Lia dare to accept?

This is a cute, fun, easy read. The follow-up to Dawn’s debut novel (Count Me In), If She Dares features an atypical leading man — a self-professed geek (though, of course, he’s a cute one). Garr and Lia literally run into each other at what could be a bad experience, but it sets them up for a fun few weeks.

If you want a deep, emotional story, keep looking — Dawn’s lighthearted approach is perfect for those who prefer rom-com to drama.

Rated G/PG (depending on your limits — nothing offensive but they do talk about drinking some wine). Get your copy here!
