About this listen
From USA Today bestselling romance author Dakota Davies comes an all new small town opposites attract romance about a runaway bride and the mysterious outsider who risks it all to protect her.
The rules were simple. Ditch my past for a fresh start in Finn River. Keep my head down, work hard, and stay out of trouble.
But trouble has a name: Kirilee St. Claire. She’s sweet and feisty, with legs for days and a wicked stubborn streak that turns my crank. She’s also my new boss’s daughter, wealthy, educated, and way out of my league.
And…engaged to a jerk.
So when she begs for my help tackling a set of secret goals–a mischievous little bucket list–before she ties the knot, even though it’s reckless and ballsy for us both, I’m all in.
Yet the more time we spend as partners in crime, the crazier things get. Though we stay safely in the friend zone, I fall for her in a hundred ways. And by way she’s looking at me, I'm not alone. How can I convince her to say goodbye to Mr. Wrong, and take a walk on the wild side with me instead?
And when the shadows from my past find me, do I hide from the truth, or risk it all for my reckless heart?
Author's note: A mysterious stranger with a heart of gold, a small-town sweetheart finding her courage, and a quirky mountain community rallying for love. Add a fiercely loyal found family, hilarious hijinks, plenty of heat, and a shocking twist, and you have a recipe for a wild and reckless ride.
Love Me Reckless is a standalone small town contemporary romance novel and book 2 in the unforgettable Love Me Dangerous series.

Story
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

One letter changed my life. One night with him might change my forever. Inheriting a beach house in a small town you've never heard of is less than ideal. Falling for the broody bar owner who hates me because he wants the house? Even worse. I came to Carrington Cove for one reason: to renovate the home I knew nothing about, sell it, and get back to my life in D.C. and my multi-million dollar business. There was nothing on the agenda about falling for Dallas, the sexy former Marine who chastises me about my manners and withholds how to fend off the murderous geese on my property.

I’m a no-nonsense man. As the head of a business empire, I have to be. I’m logical, cut-throat, and don’t believe in cheesy things like marriage and happy ever afters. But when my best friend asks me to be Best Man, I can't say no. En route to the wedding, I get stuck at the airport when my flight is delayed, and this obnoxious woman sits next to me. Not only does she keep drinking champagne even though she obviously can’t hold her liquor, but she seems determined to push every single one of my buttons.

Commitment was never my thing. But I've been directionless for far too long. It's time to take on some responsibilities and get my life together. Bidding on my best friend's brother at a bachelor auction didn't help me with that. Neither did having a hot, secret fling with him. Too bad that didn't stop me. Because now I'm in way over my head. And I'm afraid I might not be ready for the biggest commitment of all. Love

With him, I felt safe to lay my sadness down for the night and embrace a stranger. Little did I know, that hot, gorgeous man would be Jamison Ledger, the one who has taken everything I've ever wanted—my legacy, my happiness, and what I've worked my whole life to attain.

Who leaves their girlfriend in the woods after a fight? My now ex-boyfriend, that’s who. One fight—okay, a big fight—because I found out he was cheating on me while we were camping, and poof! He left me in the woods. So, I start walking to town, only I end up at the river, where I meet Axel. This guy is huge. With a storm rolling in, I don’t have much choice but to trust him and take shelter in his cabin, since I’ve been walking for hours away from town. Several days of rain wash out the road and it looks like I’m stuck here with my giant.

Love Me Reckless is book #2 in the Love Me Dangerous series. Dakota Davies has left me in a big ol' emotional puddle with this one and the story of Sawyer and Kirilee. Sawyer is creating a new future for himself, a fresh start. Kirilee is taking one for the team and marrying an a-hole (but pretty on the outside) for the family business. Sawyer and Kirilee have total chemistry and form a friendship that sparks at every touch! The binge-w0rthy suspense in this story is thrilling with plot twists right up to the end. This is a standalone, but DO NOT miss this series.
The dual narration was perfection! Robert Hatchet and Laura Horowitz have teamed up again for another dynamic performance. And OOOO, Rob is singing!! 5/5 stolen heart stars!!
Love Sawyer and Kirilee! ❤️❤️

This is Kirilee St. Claire and Sawyer Reed’s story set in Finn River, and it was full of emotion, friendship and being there for someone who needs you, no matter what.
I liked the characters and the story was engaging. The narrators did a good job of narrating the characters in a variety of voices and brought the story to life for me, doing justice to the story that the author created.
What will happen when Kirilee stands up to her family and her overbearing jerk of a fiancé Birch? What will happen when Sawyer’s past comes back to haunt him?

Robert Hatchet is a wonderfully talented performer who is already a favorite narrator. With every book he showcases his range to flow through characters and perfectly portray emotional depth and a powerful vocal range! Laura Horowitz is new to me with this series, so this is my second book and I’m definitely hooked! I have added her to my “Faveylist". Not only does she have a lovely voice, but her range carries you through the story with different characters and situations, matching Robert Hatchet to perform the story beautifully! I will definitely be listening to more of her work in the future. Great casting!!

Robert is always a home-run in any audiobook, and this story was no exception. He captures Sawyer’s caring demeanor, and I love the scenes when Sawyer patiently helps Kirilee find her own identity after keeping her dreams on a shelf. And Robert sings a little bit and hearing clips on social media made me RUN for this book. I really enjoy the tone of his voice and how he expressively brings characters to life.
Both Laura and Robert are stunning in dual narration; I am thankful it was performed this way. I also appreciate that Dakota wrote this story to be a slowburn; the connection Kirilee and Sawyer build is beautiful. When these two finally give into their feelings the intimacy and connectivity feels so real.

These two were cute together. Sawyer was very kind and patient with Kirilee, and she really came out of her shell more. She was able to stand up for herself and stop doing everything her family told her to do.
This had mystery and suspense, and there were some emotional moments as well.
