Perfect!! I Loved It!

A must read. I will not write a summary just my opinion. I can not express how much I fell in love with this book. It was perfect. I loved the characters. The plot was great and it was a very sexy read without going too far. It was very believable. I could not put it down. Wonderfully well written.

Just wonderful

The previous reviewers have done a very good job describing the plot of this novel so I won't repeat it here. I discovered Toni Blake about a year ago when I read and loved In Your Wildest Dreams. I quickly grabbed her other books wondering if that book was just a one-shot deal or if all her books were that good. And yes, all her books are that good, though until I read this book, I thought that In Your Wildest Dreams was my favorite book. However Tempt Me Tonight is now easily my favorite Toni Blake book. Second chance at love books like this one can be tricky - can the author create a situation where the original reason for the breakup is understandable (as opposed to a situation where you think - if only these two would talk, there wouldn't be a problem). Also, can the author resolve the original problem so that it makes sense that these two are now together? Tempt Me Tonight is a success at both of these. This is a pure romance novel. There's no mystery or villian - the hero isn't a Navy SEAL, spy, or what have you - he's just an auto mechanic. The heroine isn't anyone special just an attorney - an ordinary woman who's heart was broken by the hero when she was young. The author does a wonderful job describing each character's viewpoint and pain. The characters are so believable that you feel their heartache. And even Beverly, the woman at the root of the heartbreak, comes off as sympathetic. Not an easy thing to do. This is one of those books that I read the last chapter over and over cause I just loved the ending. Tempt Me Tonight is a book that I can see myself reading again and again - it's just that good.

I Love This Book!

I'm on my third reading of this book and I can't get enough of it. It's hot and steamy, but I also enjoy the sweet romance of it. Joe is the ultimate hot guy and Trish is the sweet girl who's roots will always be in her home town. Once high school sweethearts ripped apart because of a huge mistake, now they are brought back together after she comes home and runs into him at the local bar. What follows is everything I love in a Toni Blake book. Of her books, this would have to be my favorite and I doubt I'll stop at three readings. And I'm also on the lookout for books written under Ms. Blake's pen name, Lacey Alexander. If these books are hot, I can't even imagine what those books are like!

It's been fourteen years. The only reason Trish has returned home is to help her parents sell the family business. Once they've settled into retirement, she'll return to her life in Chicago and her job as a high-profile lawyer. The very last thing she wants to do while in Eden is to run into her old boyfriend, Joe Ramsey. Yeah, that Joe Ramsey - the one who broke her heart all those years ago. But run into him she does, and way too soon for comfort. Seeing the sexy man Joe has grown into just once brings out the inner biker chick she never even knew she had. Trish can't ignore the feelings she still has for Joe, but she can never trust him again, so she decides on the only sane course of action - love him and leave him. Take what she wants and have her revenge while indulging that inner biker chick. If only it were that simple... Neither Joe nor her heart will let her off that easily! When the synopsis for Tempt Me Tonight landed in my email box, I knew it sounded interesting, but having read the book now, I do not believe any mere blurb could do this story justice. The depth of emotion and heartbreak Blake conveys with the simplest strokes of her keyboard go far beyond mere words and strike into your very soul. I've never read Toni Blake before, but with one single title, she has made it onto my list of favorite authors on my website. Indeed, I am very excited that I have another of this author's titles already waiting on my book shelf for review next month. The heroine, Trish, resonated with me on so many levels. If a Word document could be tear stained, I guarantee you this review would be. I cried many times - in all the right places, and from several different emotions. Trish's heartbreak and inability to easily trust love - especially with the very man who devastated her so many years ago was something I could identify with. To be perfectly frank, I wasn't sure Blake could find a way to resolve Trish's feelings regarding Joe in a way that would satisfy the cynic in me. Not only did Toni Blake manage to resolve those feelings, she did it in such a way that I found myself reevaluating my own romantic tenets and wondering about past boyfriends who I was unwilling to give second chances to after major break-ups. Trish is so full of fear, which is in direct conflict with her need to be loved and to love Joe with everything she has. In truth, she never stopped loving him, and the pent-up emotion finds its way to the surface in a torrent of passion that is unstoppable. Of course, who would really want to stop it when it makes for such a fantastic read? LOL Joe is something unexpected - a hero who totally screwed up the first time around, but is willing to face his mistakes and will do anything to make restitution and win Trish's heart and trust all over again. Sound like a pushover? Not Joe - no sirree. Joe is every bit the strong alpha-male type with the ability to sweep both Trish and the reader off their feet with ju

Hot and Sweet !

She will be the seducer and take some revenge, but walking away from Joe proves to be harder than she thought. She's caught in her own sensuous net, made even more difficult to untangle as her ambitions become clearer. Joe is prepared to do whatever it takes to make her his and the reader is even happier to go along for the ride. This story is filled with passion and heart and the warm feelings linger long after the last page is turned.
