Publisher's Summary

Take two defense attorneys, add one troubled NFL QB who needs them, and what do you get? A threesome of hot, sexy conflict.

Gryff Ward made a serious mistake when he hired the hot-as-hell defense attorney Rayne Jordan as an associate in his high-profile legal firm, even though she’s one of the best. Now he’s struggling to keep it professional, especially when she insists on calling him “Boss”.

Rayne’s been attracted to the firm's top attorney ever since her interview. And she’s well aware that calling the conservative man “Boss” drives him crazy...in a very good way.

Add Trey Holloway, their newest client, a troubled NFL quarterback, into the mix. Tension arises when it’s clear that both Gryff and Trey want Rayne, and Gryff is willing to fight for her. However, Trey doesn’t hide the fact that he wants Gryff, too.

Now Gryff’s having a hard time fighting not only his attraction to Rayne but to another man. Even though he stubbornly refuses to admit his deepest, darkest desires.

Then Rayne takes control. She’s determined to have them both in not only her bed but her life, and she won’t give up until she does.

Note: This book in the series can be listened to as stand-alone. It includes an HEA ending. It is intended for audiences over 18 years of age since it includes explicit sexual scenes between all three characters.

Super Sexy

This book is amazing! The attraction between Griff, Raine, and Trey is super hot! They do have their ups and downs and their different personalities sometimes don't mesh. So can they make it work? The narrators Sean Crisden, Ava Lucas, and J.F.. Harding are awesome! Jeanne St James knocks it out of the park with this book!

This series just gets hotter and hotter!!

A Daring Desire is Book 4 in the Dare Menage Series by author Jeanne St. James and I swear this series just gets hotter and hotter!!

I am a sucker for stories that in involve lawyers, so I couldn't wait to listen to the story of Gryff Ward. He is a serious Alpha who definitely likes to be in control. But he doesn't know what hits him when he hires Rayne Jordan... then things get seriously combustible when a hot shot NFL quarterback who is in a spot of legal trouble gets thrown in to the mix

Again, as with previous books in the series, the emphasis isn't solely on the physical aspects of the characters relationship. There is a serious connection between Gryff, Rayne and Trey and we get to see all sides from each character's POV

So this audio has it all - great plot and serious heat. The narrators are on point. Ava Lucas is strong and confident and Sean Crisden and JF Harding bring all the necessary alpha-male hotness

This is book 4 in the series, but can be listened to as a standalone. I can't wait for the next audio in the series

Perfect in every way

What happens when the person you want the most also wants someone else? Gryff is in lust with Rayne, a lawyer in his firm. He finds it hard to concentrate when she is in the room. When the firm takes on Trey's self defense case, the cocky football star gets under both of their skins. The result was the hottest menage I have listened to to date. Gryff is unsure of his feelings for Trey and Rayne will not choose between the two men. Their relationship comes together in a sensual, emotional connection that was a pleasure to listen to. Jeanne St. James has done it again. I highly recommend this audiobook.

Awesome storyline however ending feels rushed

While I have been enjoying these books in this Dare series, this one left me feeling like we had just gotten to the main meat of the story and the BOOM...The End!
I am hoping Trey, Gryff, and Rayne have more storyline ahead in the next book because I feel their story was cut short. Still a great book and the narration was spot on.

Hot story, great narration

Another hot story with great narration. After 4 of the 6 books in the series read now, I think that I'm liking the ones that are totally new relationships better than the ones with already paired up people. It seems like the relationship develops better that way. Can't wait to see who is up next!

Falling hard for this one

This fourth installment of the Dare Ménage series is definitely all that and then some. This is Gryffin Ward’s story and what an explosive experience it is, as the narrators bring these dynamic characters to life from an author who has weaved an intriguing tale of self-discovery and overcoming barriers.
Gryff is a control freak which makes him the best lawyer in town bar none. His brother, Grae, requests his assistance with an incident that transpired surrounding one of his football players. Trey Holloway has been accused of aggravated assault of four men. If convicted, he could lose everything. Gryff decides to hand his case over to Rayne, a highly qualified associate. However things do not go as planned as Gryff realizes that Trey is attracted to Rayne and the feeling is mutual. This leads to trouble as Gryff takes matters into his own hands and acts on his attraction to Rayne, thereby creating a triangle of who will Rayne choose. Does Rayne have to choose just one? Can the three work out their differences and have a relationship?
I love how the author captures the emotions of each of the characters, showing their respective points of view and making them come alive to show the challenges of being who they want to be and going against the societal norm. This is one story that you need to add to your library! I volunteered to listen to a copy of this audiobook.

My 1st threesome audiobook!

I did not expect the story to end the way it did, but I’m super happy about it. I’m trying not to give anything away, but this audiobook had 1st time guy on guy sex, 1st time threesome experience (for 1 of them), jealousy, family awkwardness, the law, sports sorta, and a happy ending.

Parts of the story felt unbelievable, like Griffins brother being in a committed threesome so Griffin had someone he trusted to talk to about his new feelings towards Trey. It makes me doubt if Griffin would have been open to that experience if his brother wasn’t in a relationship with another male and a female...

Otherwise, this audiobook was great! Lot’s of sexual tension, sex, and a decent storyline that’s not too cheesy or drawn out.

A Daring Desire

This series just keeps getting better and better. I love the connection between the couples. I love how Gryff and Trey both had rocky past , but was giving a second chance to become the men they are now. As for Rayne I love how open minded she is to both of her men. She is the peace keeper and their center.

Incredibly Addictive

A Daring Desire by Jeanne St James Book 4 in Manage Series is sweet ,complicated , and very erotic. I love the way the characters , theirs emotions, and struggles are so well written you feel as if you know them and are routing for their relationship to succeed. These two lawyers and their client football player will pull into their story.

Slaying the dragon

This is fantastic I love the book but hearing read by those fabulous narrators is something else. The characters are interesting and so different that you would never expect to see them as a couple. The storyline is sweet and fun and very hot.

hot

enjoyed this story more than the last one - better chemistry. Can easily be a standalone - very little character crossovers. The series is getting a bit repetitive if you are reading them all right after each other.

Narration was great.

Daring Desire

Another great story in the Dare Menage series. I enjoyed the relationships in this one more than some of the others. Characters were good and all different. Another well balanced menage. You don't need to have read the previous stories as there is very little mention of other characters from this world.

I was provided audio review copies of the entire Dare Menage series (YES!) by the author in exchange for honest reviews. Thank you Jeanne St. James!

Fantastic

I love that even though each book has a similar theme each of them are so very unique. These books also go into some of the drama that being in a ménage relationship would suffer in the outside world. These books are just amazing and seem to be getting better all the time. I love the way that Jeanne is able to create characters that seem so real. The narrators definitely help with this.

Another passionate listen!

I think sometimes authors let their series go to long and they lose their steam. Every one of Jeanne St James's proves me wrong! This 4th book in her Dare Menage series is incredible. We have Gryff, a lawyer who is attracted to his associate, Rayne. He will never act on it as she is his employee. Gryff's brother, Grey who we met previously has a colleague, Trey, who is in trouble, and goes to Gryff for help. Now Rayne is attracted to both men, and Trey feels a pull to Gryff. But can these three be in a relationship? St James masterfully weaves her web of love around these three. We not only get steamy love scenes, but she has us experiencing the inner turmoil and increasing feelings of all three. It's always a pleasure to have a book like this that has some significance and purpose. There is also a great integration of characters from previous books, giving us the feeling of familiarity. Loved it and can't wait to see her next one!

Once again, the narration of this book is spot on! St James is an expert at matching her characters to voices. Sean Crisden as Gryff is so good! He brings uncertainty to this menage, but never lets his machismo down. Trey portrayed by JF Harding brings this outwardly confident man to life, but never lets his vulnerability and insecurity hide completely. And these two glued together by the amazing voices of Ava Lucas, with her main focus as Rayne brings the story to life. She is one of the best with her understanding of her characters so well that the voices are always perfectly portrayed. Could not have been better!
