Dangerous to Know and Love written by Jane Harvey-Berrick

A little while ago I was asked to review a manuscript for a book in the mature adult genre. Why me? Well, I am a mature adult (although many would argue the mature part) but the book is about a character who is so appealing how could I not read it? It was one of those "can't put it down" story lines and it is about to be published.
Guess what? I'm being acknowledged in the book for my review so my name is finally being published! My dream of being an author is getting closer and closer. OK, not that close, but, you should read the book anyway. It has a great twist that you won't see coming .....



Blurb: Nineteen year old Daniel Colton is the guy all the girls want to date, and the man all the guys want to be. Moody, with an explosive temper, closed off and sullen, he’s also beautiful, tatted in delicious ways, with a pierced eyebrow and spiky black hair. It’s rumoured he has piercings in other places, too. Is he really mad, bad and dangerous to know?
Daniel lives with his older brother, Zef, and their home is party central. You want drugs, a good time, liquor, no questions asked? Colton’s is the place to go.
When Daniel and good girl Lisanne Maclaine have to work together on an assignment, Lisanne finds there’s a lot more to the college’s bad boy than his reputation. He’s intelligent and funny and good company. And then she discovers his secret, why he’s so closed off to everyone, and determined to keep people at arms’ length. But being his secret-keeper is harder than she ever dreamed.
