Falling for my ex's brother is not part of my plan.

Small-town mayor Peter Bradbury is both sexy and stubborn. It would be best for my sanity if I could avoid him. Too bad my boss gave me an ultimatum to do the exact opposite. Peter is my adversary and very much off limits. But his sexy, melt-your-panties smile and his love for Oak Springs and all its crazy residents make me forget we're at odds-one heated kiss at a time.

He's determined to make me fall in love with his town, and the more time we spend together, the hotter things burn between us. But with my job on the line, I need to remember what I came here for. It isn't a few kisses and an unforgettable night in Peter's bed, that's for sure.

Despite all the reasons we're wrong for one another, the heat rising between us doesn't stop, and I wonder-what's the worst that could happen if I mix business and pleasure?

But then I start to fall for him, and I have to decide between doing what I know is right or following my heart.

This small-town forbidden romance with a protective big-hearted hero and a heroine who's out to prove herself delivers steam, suspense, and a satisfying happy ever after.

Author's Note: Dare You to Love is the first book in Mina Cole's OAK SPRINGS SERIES. Fall in love with the town and its residents from the beginning.
