Paradise Key Resort holds the best and the worst of Sofía Vargas’s adolescent memories of love and heartbreak. Now, she hopes to wipe the slate clean and boost her career from resort manager to owner by winning a quirky town contest. But when an old flame throws his hat into the ring, Sofía realizes that protecting her heart will be the biggest challenge.
Nathan Patrick Hamilton III has played the part of the good son all his life with one exception—indulging in a secret on again-off again relationship with Sofia in high school and college, knowing that family duty would eventually tear them apart.
Years later, Nathan feels like he finally has a chance to win back the girl of his dreams and right the way he wronged her. But Sofía doesn’t trust or forgive easily and it’s going to take more than kooky town hall meetings, an emergency trip back to Key West, stolen kisses and a re-creation of their first date, for him to even be in the running. Is the ultimate prize the resort or winning back Sofía's heart?

Eileen's Thoughts
I really enjoyed reading Resort to Love by Priscilla Oliveras, book
three in The Paradise Key series. This is a second chance love story between Sofía and Nate. While in Paradise Key for her friend’s funeral, Sofia decides to buy the old and rundown resort, that holds many memories from her youth; both happy and sad. However, when she discovers her old flame Nate is also interested in the resort, Sofía realizes protecting her heart might be her biggest challenge. Nate has tried to be the good son his entire life with the exception of his on and off relationship with Sofía. After a two year separation Nate believes he finally has a chance to win back the girl of his dreams and repair the wrong that tore them apart. Sofía doesn’t trust Nate nor does she easily forgive him. It is going to take more than crazy town hall meetings, an emergency trip back to Key West, stolen kisses and a re-creation of their first date, for Nate to even be in the running. Nate must decide if the ultimate prize is the resort or winning back Sofía's heart.
I loved these two and all the demands each had. Sofía had a strong belief and love of family while Nate’s family did not seem to care about him or what he has accomplished as long as he did their bidding. Sofía taught Nate much about what family and love should look like.
This was a fun book to read and easy to visualize the story as it occurred. I totally loved these characters and didn’t want to put this book down. Ms. Oliveras did a fantastic job creating her characters, keeping the story interesting, making me forget the world around me and did not let me go until I turned the last page. I highly recommend this book to other reader and look forward to reading the next book in this four book series.
