LOVE ME IF YOU DARE takes us on a romantic romp to the Land of Sunshine. Camille "Cami" Thompson is a deal closer and a very good one. Taking "no" for an answer is not in her wheelhouse. When she arrives at the Happy Crab Motel in the little beach town of Coral Cove, Florida, she is ready for handsome owner Reece Donovan to sign on the dotted line. Her company, Real Estate Developer, Vanderhook. is very determined to build on the prime property, is set to tear Happy Crab Motel down and in its' place build a new super- high-rise resort and is offering a hefty sales price No way Donovan can refuse this offer, from this sexy, gorgeous, successful closer, or can he? Cami is determined to get Reese to sell the Happy Crab and when he initially turns her down cold, she decides to "take a little vacation" at the motel, and wear him down. She gets acquainted with Coral Cove, makes friends with many of the folks living there and the attraction between Cami and Reese is dynamite and ready to explode. This is a contest of strong wills but who will be the victor? LOVE ME IF YOU DARE is a feel good read about new beginnings. The characters are friendly, colorful, loyal to Reese and really love the guy. Cami discovers her life of travel, making mucho bucks does not hold a candle to having friends and perhaps falling in love in the quaint town of Coral Cove. The budding romance with the laid-back, easy going, carefree guy, a hunk who loves life. He is scruffy and sexy and teaches Cami how to snorkel, sail and make love in the water, again and again. Born and raised in Coral Cove, the motel has been in his family for generations. He is holding on to the motel because it is the only remaining connection he has left to his family. He tells Cami all about his feelings on a sail they take together, getting marooned when the wind dies. It is True Confession time for both of them and they declare their love for each other. The pet Iguana Fifi and adopted cat, Tiger Lily, add a delightful touch to the story telling and the ending has a feel good, happy note. Toni Blake is a lovely story teller with characters you will grow very fond of and wish them the best. I loved Tinkerbell, and Reece Cup, their nicknames for each other.

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?
