The internet can be a scary place when you don’t know who is on the other end of the screen. This book was good and sadly the plots in the story are very believable and it’s scary. This book was entertaining and the truth unfolded in a dark way. This was a good read.

You've probably played truth or dare before, but I will bet that it was nothing like the game in this story! Be ready to sit down and read this book from cover to cover. It will be hard to put it down so don't even try!
Jess started chatting with Jayson online because of an on-line class they were taking together. What just started out as chats became a truth or dare game that got more intense than you can imagine.
Dwayne S. Joseph totally got the way that Jess would feel. She was afraid that what she was doing was bad. She knew she shouldn't be doing it and should just quit, but hey it's harmless, right? The anticipation of their meeting was just making my heart race! It knew it was going to be HOTTT, and it sure was! I was so wrapped up in the story that I could feel exactly what Jess felt, nervous yet excited, wrong, but also very right.
Jayson is a character that you won't forget! I like the fact that he doesn't require his woman to have a perfect body. I got totally sucked into his game, not expecting what happened at all. I don't want to say too much about him, but just know that he is unforgettable! Can you say sicko!
This was one amazing book with such memorable characters! The writing is just so descriptive! The game of truth of dare in this book just got so intense that I was on the edge of my seat in anticipation of what was going to happen next. From the time I started this book until the very end, I was hooked like an addict! What a great mix of drama, thrills, sex, and ..... well.......I won't tell you any more. Just trust me. You need to read this one! Not only is it entertaining, but it deals with issues that are current and realistic. It really makes you think about who could be lurking out there online.

Wow.... this book is filled with numerous and violent twisted situations that are life-threatening and deadly. The writing styles and concepts were purely phemonal. Each character life stories are so unbelievable, disturbing, and shocking 😲 😯 😮 🫨....
I'm extremely captive and quite impressed with Jess Roberts and her resiliency. She was very naive, in her lapse of judgment , that she would make her life more fulfilled, sexulity... by having an affair with Jayson. Not realizing that he was mentally, emotionally, and physically damaged 💔 ....
Highly recommended

Dwayne S. Joseph has delivered another best-selling book to masses. In Truth or Dare, we are introduced to Jess, a married mother of two who starts an online friendship with one of her classmates. What starts off as an innocent friendship ends in a deadly game of Truth & Dare.
I remember playing Truth or Dare as a kid, and the furthest we ever went was a kiss on the cheek. Mr. Joseph shows us what can happen when the game of Truth or Dare is played by adults. I love Dwayne S. Joseph's style of writing. He has a way of getting the readers attention from the first page, and keeping it to the end of the book.
Twenty percent of divorces involve Facebook and 80 percent of divorce lawyers have reported a spike in the number of cases that use social media for evidence, according to a survey by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. I was happy that Mr. Joseph tackled this subject of online "friendships". After reading this book, the question that floated in my head was.. "How well do I know the people I come in contact with online?"
I highly recommend this book. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Dwayne S. Joseph has done it again and he never disappoints me. In Truth or Dare readers will learns that some games can be dangerous. The players must understand the rules fully and that sometimes quitting the game is harder than getting in. Jayson takes pride is luring women into his Truth or Dare game while giving them everything they believe they are missing. When Jayson meets Jess in their online classroom he knows he has found the woman he has been looking for and more.
Jess is married and feeling less of a connection with her husband. When Jess meets Jayson and starts playing their silly truth or dare game she believes it is harmless fun. Jayson brings out the fun in her and she believes that she is doing nothing wrong. Jess soon finds out that Jayson is playing for keeps and that the simple game she thought they were playing has just turned dangerous. Will Jess be able to turn the game off?
Dwayne has once again giving readers an entertaining and suspenseful book that will have readers on the edge of their seats anticipating Jess and Jayson's next moves. This book makes a person rethink the act of cheating. I look forward to the authors next installment.

This book was such a page turner. I loved it. If you are looking for a novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat, have your heart racing, screaming at the characters then this is the novel for you. Totally caught up in the two main characters Jayson and Jess. The crazzzzyness of it all will have you reading intensely to find out what will happen next. Jess made some no a lot of stupid moves for a married woman and found out the game of truth or dare can really mean death!!! This is a must read!!!

There are certain authors whom when I am aware they have a new release, it’s automatic that I will be purchasing it and Dwayne S. Joseph is one of them. I love how he writes about the dynamics of a marital relationship with intense chemistry, drama and a hint of suspense. TRUTH OR DARE is a page-turner with an equally intriguing sub-plot that reveals more of Jayson’s character. This is one not to sleep on.

This book may be worthy of more than 3 stars, but I could not enjoy it with the narrator chosen for this audiobook. He was reading as though he hadn't read the script in advance to know how to give the words life. It was aggravating to listen to and I could barely get passed chapter 4. Maybe I'll order it again in kindle and give it a second try. If that happens, I'll rerate it later.
