New Release……..
Book #3 The Bradens of Peaceful Harbor
Fall in love with Sam Braden in the Bradens of Peaceful Harbor. Hot, sexy, & wickedly naughty second cousins to the Weston, Colorado Bradens we know and love.
River rafting and adventure company owner Sam Braden works hard and plays harder. He’s fast, focused, and determined—and never at a loss for a willing woman to share his time with. The trouble is, the only woman he wants refuses him at every turn.
Physician assistant Faith Hayes escaped her painful past and built a safe, happy life in Peaceful Harbor. She’s also put what she’s learned to good use helping others by founding Women Against Cheaters, an online support group. When her boss’s sinfully sexy brother sets his sights on sweet Faith, she knows the self-professed player is everything she shouldn’t want, and she’s determined to resist him.
Sam pulls out all the stops, proving to Faith that his past doesn’t have to define his future. As she lets down her guard and begins to trust Sam, intense conversations turn to intimate pleasures. But when real life steps in and their pasts collide, it’s Faith who’s left with something to prove.
RIVER OF LOVE is part of the Love in Bloom series. While this can be read as a stand-alone novel, for even more reading enjoyment you may want to read the entire Love in Bloom series in series order.

My Review of River of Love by Melissa Foster
“Your eyes are so full of want and worry. I want to ease your worries and savor your wants.”
Excuse me while I roll my tongue back into my mouth. I love, love, love Sam Braden. He is the epitome of sexy and has the sweetness to back it up. While they have been acquaintances in the past, Sam decides he wants more and sets his sights on Faith. Can man-whore Sam become a one-girl guy? Can Faith let down her guard and look toward the future with this man?
It may seem like insta-love from Sam’s point of view, but I think it’s more of he goes after what he wants when he finally wises up. They have some in common, but a lot of differences, that I believe tie them together.
It took me a bit to get into Faith’s character, mainly because I didn’t understand where she was coming from, but that worked itself out for me. Eventually, I did come to enjoy her character and her quirks. Sam, on the other hand, I was gaga for from the get-go. Of course, the same can be said for all of her heroes. Once again, Melissa has created this strong, charismatic, sexy hero that you just can’t help but swoon over.
Lovely writing that had a great pace and keeps you reading. As with all of the Love in Bloom books, this one also includes a ton of family involvement and some sexy romance. I’ll say it again, I love Sam Braden. So far he’s my favorite of the Peaceful Harbor, MD Bradens. We’ll see who’s next.

Fall in love with Cole Braden in the Bradens of Peaceful Harbor. Hot, sexy, & wickedly naughty second cousins to the Weston, Colorado Bradens we know and love.
In SURRENDER MY LOVE…
Annalise “Leesa” Avalon never realized that one sentence could change her life until one of her students revealed his crush–and within twenty-four hours she finds herself under fire. After a grueling investigation that turns her life upside down, she steals away to Peaceful Harbor, Maryland, with a new identity to try to pull herself back together and figure out her next step.
From the outside, Cole Braden lives a charmed life. He’s a top orthopedic surgeon with a thriving practice, strong family ties, and friends he adores. But there’s a lonely spot inside Cole that no one can see. He has an enormous heart–and a painful past–but the desire to love and be loved is too strong to ignore.
A chance encounter brings Leesa and Cole together, and the attraction is immediate and intense. But a relationship is the last thing Leesa needs–and the only thing Cole wants. Long talks, heated moments, and deep connections are hard to resist, but the harder Cole tries, the more Leesa pulls away. Cole might truly be the right man for Leesa, but is Leesa the right woman for him?
