This is the 1st book of Lindon U series, it can be read as stand alone. My first in this series and this book is good. Theme of this book is what belong to you will find you again. I really sory for what happend to Ivy, it is still beyond me why parent do such thing, tell children a burden, worthless, didnt support her future, love each children differently and easily letting go children. She still 16 when get through a lot. Aiden have his own problem, this problem lead him meet Ivy again. I love how they are for each other, knowing each other habits, knowing each other around without tell. Aiden give Ivy future, second chance, believe, trust again.

Thank you to NetGalley for provide this book, it is pleasure to review this book.

Dare You to Hate Me is book one in the Lindon U Series by B. Celeste and I’m going ahead and saying this now.
This is my favorite book I’ve read all year!
Hells bells I loved this book. This was such an emotional read. That had me completely and utterly hooked.
This story had everything I wanted in a childhood friends to adult lovers story.
Amazing plot, fantastic pace and writing. B. Celeste blew this one outta the water.
She creates these very relatable characters and stories that you can't seem to stop reading. They have so much care and love you feel when you read it.
It’s truly amazing.
I can’t wait to start book two.

Dare you to hate me was my first book my B. Celeste. My go to book lately have been sports romance, and my favorite trope has always been friends to lovers. This book hit the mark by having both. I was loved Aiden characters. I felt he had a good heart and head on his shoulders and wasn't an over the top alpha male you see in a lot of sport romances. However, i was struggling with liking Ivys character. She was a strong and independent women who had been through so much to get to that place. But there was just something about her I just didn't like (and can't exactly say why)

That being said, I still enjoyed reading this book and even liked a lot of the side characters. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.

I loved the way this story was written. And the heat factor? It was steaming up my kindle. Overall I thought this was a good story.

„i dare you to hate me, ivy. because we both know you don’t. you couldn’t even if you tried.“

aiden was so cute and thoughtful and ivy was such a strong character that was interesting to read about. i love childhood friends to lovers so I was very excited to start this book but the smut scenes were just okay not bad but nothing special either, actually kind of boring and what really annoyed me was the lack of chemistry. they had sweet moments together, but nothing special.

Dare You to Hate Me is my first read by author B Celeste.

This is a sports romance and a second chance romance as well . I love both of these genres, so of course I enjoyed the story! I also really liked how the author spent time developing the characters and their romance. It helped feel a better connection to them.

The ending was a bit rushed, but overall I still enjoyed this one.

B Celeste hit it out of the park again! I read Under The Sycamore Tree and loved it so much that when I saw another of her books available for review I knew I had to read it. I'm so glad I did! I devoured this story in one sitting! Ivy and Aiden are fire together and I don't want to spoil much but when I tell you my heart MELTED that Aiden didn't spend their years apart whoring around , omg just made me love him so much more! I'd give more than 5 stars if I could. I'm ready for the next B Celeste Masterpiece! I received a free copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you Bloom Books for my gifted copy in exchange for an honest review!!

What a great second chance sports romance!! This definitely had a lot of angst and tension. The first chapter set the tone of the story and the difficulties Ivy has been through. There were lots of heavy topics, but it was handled well between the two MCs. I loved getting to know Aiden and seeing him through his friends eyes. I will definitely be reading the next in the series!
