Camille Thompson has come to Coral Cove to seal a business deal with the owner of the Happy Crab Motel, Reece Donovan. He just doesn't know it yet. With the Florida weather and small niche of residents, Camille wants to bring in bigger opportunities to the residents. However, what she doesn't understand is the quaint, small-town lifestyle that Coral Cove has to offer. So after being turned down, Camille decides to stay in Coral Cove just to irritate the owner until he gives in.

Toni Blake has been one of my favorite authors for a long time. With her ability to create multi-faceted characters in realistic settings, Blake's romances always have a lot of heart in them.

Oftentimes, what you see on the outside is just a figment of a person's true character and that is evident in both Camille and Reece. While Camille is headstrong and resilient and Reece is more laidback, Blake reveals more about them as the story goes on, creating depth and emotion to really strengthen the story. In fact, I had a happy teary-eyed moment at the resolution where as I was completely satisfied by the end.

LOVE ME IF YOU DARE is a beautiful story of forgiveness and strength. With this latest instalment, Toni Blake once again shows just how talented a writer she truly is!

Book Summary

When the question is love, the answer is always yes . . .

Camille Thompson is the best at what she does—closing deals. That's why real estate developer Vanderhook has sent her to Coral Cove, Florida, where the stubborn owner of the Happy Crab Motel is refusing to sell. Camille's never had a problem turning a "no" into a "yes," but then she's never been so captivated by a man's sexy smile before.

Laidback Reece Donovan likes life simple. No amount of money—or any other temptation Camille can offer—will convince him to give up the one link to his past. Of course, it would be easier without the powerful chemistry raging between them.

As a fragile romance begins to grow, can Reece trust Camille with his secrets? And when promises are broken, along with hearts, can the charm of Coral Cove help bring them back together?
