Katie McGarry knows her stuff and I’ve been swept away with all her books! I really loved Isaiah in Dare You To and hated how hurt he was in that one. I never shipped him and Beth though, so I just wanted to see him find someone too. In Crash Into You, we delve into Isaiah’s world and his story — he was thrown into foster care when he was six when his mom got sent to jail. After a […]
I have to admit, I was a little apprehensive when I started Dare You To. Beth was definitely a prickly character in Pushing the Limits and I wasn’t sure how I’d take to her in this one. I was wrong! In classic Katie McGarry fashion, she writes fantastic characters and stories and relationships that pull you in and doesn’t let you go! In Dare You To, Beth Risk is forced to go live with her uncle after an unfortunate incident […]
