Camilla Stirling, or Cam as her friends call her, is an Action Technician. Don't know what that is? Well, I didn't either. Turns out an action technician is a stunt woman, and Cam comes from a long line of stunt doubles. She's smart, funny, gorgeous, and knows her way around a slide rule when it comes to computing the mathematical formulas needed to successfully dive off a waterfall without killing herself in the process. The frequent descriptions of stunts her family has done are hilarious. Not every family has grannies that get paid to be set on fire!When self-assured Cam meets ranch owner Luthor (Thor) Devlin, it's love at first sight for both of the independent, stubborn people. There's only one little problem. Devlin, like most men, thinks he's supposed to be the protector of the woman he loves so he's more than a little nonplussed when he realizes Cam doesn't need his protection. Or his strength. Or his riding to the rescue every time he gets anxious about her safety. In fact, he ends up needing her rather than the other way around. And that just rankles this proud man.No one does setting and description as well as Elaine Raco Chase. You almost feel the frosty air and see those majestic, rugged mountain peaks in Montana that serve as the backdrop of Dare The Devil. Devlin's ranch and the man himself sound like every woman's dream--if he can just change his attitude about men and women.Cam and Devlin, like couples in real life, have issues. It's complicated, but love often is. Is love worth fighting for? Or will Cam and Devlin have to give up too much to let love survive?
