Today bestselling contemporary romance author Toni Blake continues
her new, heartwarming series set in the beachside town of Coral Cove.
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?

This is
a heartwarming story about new beginnings. It is about breaking down
existing barriers and making yourself open to new ideas and feelings.
Realising that change is something
positive to embrace even if it means sacrificing the life you have
carefully constructed.
Reece
is a laid back kinda guy. He has a very good life in the small
community of Coral Cove where he has lived all of his life. He likes
things just the way they are, so has declined many offers to sell his
small motel business to developers over time. This time though, the
one dangling money in front of his eyes is a woman. Can he resist
his urges and avoid this “problem” from the property development
world?
Camille
has her life just as she likes it - that is, her work is her life and
family. Leaving Michigan after graduating college, she headed for a
new life in Atlanta and never looked back. She earns a fabulous
salary as a negotiator and owns a nice townhouse. She has everything
she never had growing up in rural Michigan – money and financial
security. After arriving in the small town of Coral Cove, the owner
of her next property transaction isn't quite what she expected. He's
laid back, scruffy, incredibly stubborn and oh so sexy! Maybe she
has to turn on her charm and seduce an agreement out of him?
I love
how the author set up the scenes to make us, the readers “see”
Coral Cove. Not only does she bring the small town to life, the
characters come alive too. You can really feel the push and pull
between Reece and Camille as they both try and deny to themselves and
each other the undeniable chemistry between
them. All of this is accompanied by an
interesting array of supporting characters including a pet
“dinosaur” called Fifi and a stray cat called “Tiger Lily!”
Each have their very individual part to play as the story unfolds and
everyone blends well to compliment one another beautifully. Our
protagonists' journey to find happiness with each other has its ups
and downs, however the author makes the readers understand why things
are as they are, so they see the full picture to explain the
consequences of their actions.
This is
the first book I have read by Toni Blake and look forward to reading
more from her in the future. I'd especially love to see Tamra find
someone to love and cherish in Coral Cove as her character really
struck a chord with me. And maybe Fletcher too.
