About the Author
Toni Blake's lifelong love of writing began when she won an essay contest in the fifth grade. Soon after, she penned her first novel-nineteen notebook pages long. Since then, Blake has become a multi-published, RITA(R)-nominated author of contemporary romance novels that are both sexy and heartwarming. Her work has been excerpted in Cosmopolitan and reviewed by USA Today and First for Women magazine. She lives with her husband in the Midwest, and, when not writing, she enjoys traveling, quilting, and scrapbooking.

I thought this book was absolutely brilliant. Not the cleverest of storylines but it doesn't matter as it's so well written and very sexy!! If you love romance books, this is a must! This is definitely my favourite of the Warner Forever books so far...

A Very Touching Erotic Romance
26 Mar 2005
By Patricia Lieberman
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book by Toni Blake is NOT your typical erotic romance. It has warm endearing characters and a really touching story.
Nick is a housepainter with a wounded heart. Lauren writes her sexual fantasies in a Red Diary which Nick finds while painting her house. He is enticed by what she has written. He knows he shouldn't keep invading her privacy but continues to read the diary. They have some history and at first Nick wants to get even for a past wrong.
Lauren's love teaches Nick that love can heal even the worst of wounds. I definitely recommend this book!!!!

Sensual and entertaining
19 Sep 2005
By Tracy Vest
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Nick Armstrong hates anything to do with the Ash family. After his mother died, his father took to the bottle and was ousted from a partnership with now multi-millionaire builder, Henry Ash. When Nick is hired to paint the house of Henry's daughter Lauren (whom he has not seen since they were children), he's instantly attracted to her, but can't fathom a relationship with the daughter of his enemy. When Lauren is out, he snoops in her house to get a glimpse of what "should have been his," only to find her diary. When he opens it, he discovers her erotic fantasies, and sets a plan in motion to seduce her with her own fantasies and break her heart. He doesn't factor in that his own heart might become involved. Lauren is not what Nick expects, and he soon finds himself falling for the one woman he doesn't feel he can have. When she discovers his deception, will she ever be able to forgive him?
While the plot itself is a bit predictable, the story is very engaging, and keeps the reader hooked. Nick has so many layers - he's both a tough guy and has a huge soft spot for the disabled brother he supports, while trying to find it in his heart to forgive his father for allowing their lives to be ruined. And Blake can really up to steam quotient - this is one hot book!

Surprisingly Sweet and Old Fashioned!
12 Nov 2004
By Jonetta
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
From the beautiful red rose cover to the end of the story, Toni Blake's THE RED DIARY is sexy, sweet and hot! A contemporary romance combines with a good old fashioned love story between two unlikely people. Even the secondary characters have a story you'll want to know more about--BIG HINT, WARNER! Overall, a very satisfying read and a story that will stay with you. Did I mention the sex? It's amazing. Thank you, Toni Blake!
