Book #9 The Bradens, Love in Bloom Series #18
After months of caring for her terminally ill mother, Rebecca Rivera is left all alone in a world she doesn’t trust—but she’s determined not to let her mother’s death define her. Losing her job, having to pummel some jerk for being too handsy, and living in her car are just temporary setbacks to an otherwise solid plan in finding her footing. Full of pride and used to being in control of her life, she’s certain she can make it on her own. The last thing Rebecca needs is a man to fix her troubles—even if that man is strikingly handsome, wealthy, and charismatic Pierce Braden.
Pierce is a powerful real estate investor on the verge of a major acquisition. As the eldest of six siblings raised by a single mother, he’s spent his life protecting those he loves. He’s used to being in charge and making things right, and although he’d give his life for his family, he treats the women he dates as expendable—until he meets sexy and stubborn Rebecca Rivera, a woman who is as strong as she is vulnerable.
Passion ignites between them, and the two share their most intimate thoughts and desires. It doesn’t take long for Pierce to realize that Rebecca is as determined not to be saved as he is to find a way into her heart. As their love grows, Rebecca must face fears she didn’t even realize she had—and Pierce must learn the hard truth that sometimes less really is more. Is the power of true love enough for Rebecca and Pierce to learn to give up control and allow their hearts to take over?
THE BRADEN COUSINS are the newest addition to the LOVE IN BLOOM series, this is the third of six books.

My Review of Romancing My Love by Melissa Foster
All of my Melissa Foster reviews seem to begin the same way. I LOVE these characters and Melissa always creates memorable and realistic personalities that tug on your heartstrings. Every.Single.Time.
Rebecca Rivera and Pierce Braden are no exception. Tears. Melissa has a way of making me tear up, be it silent tears or big ugly cries. Sexy Pierce and down-on-her-luck, but feisty Rebecca are a match made in heaven. Pierce…sexy, smoking-hot, and absolutely delicious. He’s strong, powerful, and passionate. Did I mention sexy? 😉
Rebecca’s story kills me. She recently lost her mother, her apartment, and her job. She’s too stubborn to ask for help, but will Pierce see beyond the walls she surrounds herself with and try to break those barriers. You bet your bottom he does and it makes Romancing My Love one of my favorites in the Braden cousins’ books. Of course, I think we still have three more and with Melissa behind the writing I’ll probably swoon over those guys, too.
Once again Melissa gives us a beautiful love story with unforgettable characters and a strong storyline. If you like your sweet with a bit of steam, you should definitely read this series. They can be read as stand-alone books, but I think you’ll enjoy them more if you read them in order.
