Just a Little Hookup
by Erika Wilde

Series background & context
The Dare Crossover series brings Erika Wilde into Carly Phillips’ popular Dare universe, spinning off side characters into their own steamy, small-scale adventures. Each book can be read as a stand-alone, but all of them feature bachelor auctions, weekend arrangements, and heroines who have history with the men they end up buying.
Just a Little Hookup kicks things off with Derek Bettencourt, a confirmed bachelor who finds himself on the auction block for charity. When his business partner’s younger sister, Jessica Cavanaugh, unexpectedly wins the bidding, old crushes resurface fast. What starts as playful payback and handyman chores for the weekend becomes something deeper as they cross the line between family friend and forbidden lover, all while an outside threat tries to come between them.
In Just a Little Secret, Georgia Brooks ends up with a bachelor neither she nor the man in question expected. Her sister gifts her a weekend with Drew Daniels, a hotshot attorney who is supposed to help Georgia explore her wilder side. Their fling soon stretches past the agreed time frame, and the real tension comes from the secret Drew is keeping, one that touches Georgia’s family and could blow up the fragile trust they are building.
Just a Little Promise (and future crossover entries) continue the pattern of pairing familiar faces from the Dare world with women who have never quite forgotten them. Second chances, long-held crushes, and family expectations all play a role as these couples navigate public chemistry and private vulnerability. Tripp’s story, for example, hints at a man determined to reclaim the woman he once lost and finally build the family he has always wanted.
The tone across the series is sexy but warm, with lots of banter, close-knit family cameos, and the sense that everyone is part of one extended friend group. If you already enjoy the Dare books, these crossovers are like bonus episodes. If you are new to this corner of Wilde’s work, they are an easy way to sample her collaborative style in bite-size, high-heat stories.
