**FREE in KU

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 2, 2021

After spending years wondering who she was, tattoo artist Cait Weatherby finally found her answers on the sandy shores of Silver Island. With two half sisters she never knew existed, a group of friends she adores, and a devastatingly charming admirer who flirts with her at every turn, she’s ready to figure out her next steps. The trouble is, Cait lives in the shadows of a dark past, and she can’t afford complications that might cause her to lose the family she’s only just found—complications like blue-eyed boatbuilder Brant Remington, who is as open as she is guarded. If only the sexy charmer would take the hint…

Brant is Cait’s opposite in every way, but he’s drawn to everything about the sexy newcomer—from the quiet strength that rivals the caution in her mossy-green eyes to her tough facade that he can’t wait to strip away.

As Brant works his magic, Cait’s walls come down. But as sweet as that feels, Cait knows how quickly good things can turn bad. It’s going to take more than a little trust to beat the ghosts of her past and claim the future they both deserve.

••••••••

REVIEW:  MAYBE WE SHOULD is the second instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult SILVER HARBOR erotic, romance series-a spin off from the Steeles of Silver Island which in turn is one of several spin offs from the author’s Love in Bloom series. This is thirty-three year old boat builder/search and rescue team member Brant Remington, and thirty-two year old tattoo artist/café owner Cait Weatherby’s story line. MAYBE WE SHOULD can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. Cait’s story line begins in MAYBE WE WILL.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Brant and Cait) MAYBE WE SHOULD follows the building romance and relationship between thirty-three year old boat builder/search and sea rescue team member Brant Remington, and thirty-two year old tattoo artist/café owner Cait Weatherby. Three months earlier Cait was notified that her birth mother Ava de Messieres had died, and had left a one-third of her Silver Island bistro/café to Cait, along with two half-sisters she knew nothing about. Fast forward to present day wherein Cait, now spending time between her job as a tattoo artist on the Cape, and Silver Island with her new found family struggles with the overwhelming relationships and friendships having lived a life hiding from an abusive past that refuses to let go. Meeting Brant Remington stirs something deep within our story line heroine but Cait’s demons hold tight, as Cait continues to push Brant out of her life but a close call finds Cait rescued by our story line hero, a hero who wants something more from the woman with whom he will quickly fall in love. What ensues is the slow building romance and relationship between Cait and Brant, and the potential fall-out as Cait must face her past before considering her future, or anything permanent with the man that she loves.

Cait Weatherby lost everything the day her adoptive mother died, and in the ensuing years lived a life in the shadows fearing for the day that her life would come to an end. Struggling to leave that part of her life behind, Cait doesn’t make friends easily, and continues to battle with issues of trust. Brant Remington comes from a large and loving family that love and support one another no matter the cost. Pulling Cait into the arms of his friends and extended family was a bit overwhelming, and Cait struggled to feel accepted as one of their own.

The relationship between Grant and Cait begins as friendship, as Grant realizes there is more to Cait than meets the eye. Grant suspects the demons from her past are refusing to let go, and with that, Grant is willing to wait until Cait is secure enough to trust our hero with her heart and her soul. The $ex scenes are intimate, passionate and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters, many of whom were introduced in the author’s numerous, other series. We are reintroduced to Cait’s half sisters Abby and her fiance Aiden (Maybe We Will 1), Boston attorney de Deirdra Messieres, and Brant’s amazing and supporting family and group of friends.

MAYBE WE SHOULD is a story of struggle and acceptance, trust and revelations, friendships, relationships, family and love. The premise is emotional and heart breaking; the romance is captivating and intense; the characters are energetic, lively, and enterprising.

~
The Whiskeys are perfect beach reads with depth of story, strong family ties, and a wealth of emotions. Small town love stories with happily ever afters guaranteed. The Dark Knights motorcycle club is not a typical MC book. These bad-boy bikers are tough, but they have hearts of gold…and they’re not afraid to use them.

••••••••

REVIEW:RUNNING ON DIESEL is the eighth instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE WHISKEYS: DARK KNIGHTS OF PEACFUL HARBOR erotic, romance series-a spin off from several of the author’s interconnected series. This is thirty-two year old bounty hunter/bartender/Dark Knight Nomad Desmond ‘Diesel’ Black, and twenty-six year old, waitress Tracey Kline’s story line. RUNNING ON DIESEL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

WARNING: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Diesel and Tracey) RUNNING ON DIESEL follows the building romance and relationship between thirty-two year old bounty hunter/bartender/Dark Knight Nomad Desmond ‘Diesel’ Black, and twenty-six year old, waitress Tracey Kline. Tracey Kline is a survivor of domestic abuse, and sought refuge in the small town of Peaceful Harbor where she would work alongside our story line hero. Diesel Black was tasked with ‘protecting’ our storyline heroine but two years in, Diesel begins to ‘overstep’ his duties, and knows it is time to move on from the town and the people of Peaceful Harbor but when Tracey is attacked at work, Diesel makes it his mission to destroy the people who attacked the woman with whom he is falling in love. Secrets from the past are about to be revealed, sending Diesel on a mission of his own, where he may not like what he finds. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Diesel and Tracey, and the potential fall-out as Diesel’s time in Peaceful Harbor comes to a close.

The relationship between Diesel and Tracey is acrimonious at best. Diesel’s attraction to Tracey is masked as over-protectiveness, and in this everyone knows to stay clear of our story line heroine. Diesel is a dark, broody and quiet man who struggles to socialize with the people in his life. Tracey has struggled to rebuild her life in Peaceful Harbor but Diesel’s over the top attitude is about to push Tracey into the arms of another man. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of familiar and colorful secondary and supporting characters. As secrets from the past begin to reveal a deeper connection to the Whiskeys and Peaceful Harbor, Diesel discovers that everything about his life has been predicated upon a lie.

RUNNING ON DIESEL is a story of secrets and lies, family and relationships, recovery and moving forward, love and happily ever after. The premise is emotional and engaging; the romance is provocative and intense; the characters entertaining, charismatic, broken but healing.

THE WICKED AFTERMATH by Melissa Foster-Review & Giveaway Tour

THE WICKED AFTERMATH (The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside 2) by Melissa Foster-Review & Giveaway Tour

 

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 9, 2021

THE WICKED AFTERMATH is an emotionally gripping story of love, loss, and hope, with a rich and entrancing happily ever after. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, the Wickeds feature fiercely protective heroes, strong heroines, and unbreakable family bonds. If you think bikers are all the same, you haven’t met the Dark Knights. The Dark Knights are a motorcycle club, not a gang. Their members stick together like family and will stop at nothing to keep their communities safe. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun and deeply emotional, others will tear at your heartstrings and include injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as standalone romances.

When the person you blame for your grief is the only one who can save you from the pain…

Tank Wicked lost his sister and has since vowed to save everyone else in his path. He lives by the creed of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, sworn to protect and respect his community. He selflessly saves lives as a volunteer firefighter and treats the men and women who work for him at his tattoo shop like family. But life isn’t a balance scale where good deeds negate bad things to come, and one foggy night life guts Tank once again. When a car careens over the side of a bridge and into a river, Tank springs into action, plunging into the water to rescue the passengers. Four people go into the river, but only three come out alive.

Leah Yates is just trying to make it through each day. When the man she blames for her grief becomes the only one who can pull her from the depths of despair, she discovers that even hope comes at a price. Maybe this time she won’t have to face it alone.

••••

REVIEW: THE WICKED AFTERMATH is the second instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE WICKEDS: DARK KNIGHTS AT BAYSIDE erotic,romance series focusing on the residents of Bayside Cape Cod, and the members of the Dark Knights motorcycle club. This is thirty-two year old, biker/ tattoo artist Benson ’Tank’ Wicked, and twenty-four year old waitress Leah Yates’ story line. THE WICKED AFTERMATH and The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside is a spin off from the author’s Bayside Summers, The Whiskeys, and its’ numerous franchises.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Tank and Leah) THE WICKED AFTERMATH is an emotional, heart breaking and heart warming story line that focuses on loss, love, grief and recovery. Tank Wicked has lusted after Leah Yates since she started working at the family bar but Leah’s personal life was a mystery, and Tank was about to find himself in the middle of our heroine’s family tragedy. With the Wicked family taking control, ensuring Leah survived the oncoming fallout, Tank Wicked makes it his personal mission to support Leah as the days and weeks begin to spiral out of control. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Leah and Tank, as our couple navigate a minefield of grief, acceptance and loss.

As per Melissa’s style of writing, the Wicked family, the Dark Knights, and their affiliated friends and acquaintances step up and step in when one of their own needs friendships and love. Leah Yates finds herself surrounded by people who are about to become an intricate part of her support system, a system that now includes the man with whom she will fall in love.

The relationship between Leah and Tank begins after a tragic loss. Benson ‘Tank’ Wicked refuses to leave Leah alone, knowing at some points everything is about to come crashing down. Leah struggles in the face of acceptance and loss but her attraction to Tank is visceral and strong- the sexual chemistry is incredible and raw. The $ex scenes are intimate and seductive without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic, and sassy secondary and supporting characters many of whom we have me in previous storylines and series. We are introduced to Junie and Rosie whose presence is a balm on the open wounds of our leading couple.

THE WICKED AFTERMATH is a story of overcoming tragic loss; a tale of family, friendships, love and understanding. The premise is strong, sensitive, and stirring; the romance is provocative and tender; the characters are flirty, wounded and inspiring. THE WICKED AFTERMATH is a wonderfully, heart warming addition to Melissa Foster’s family of stories.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 4, 2021

When chef Abby de Messiéres returns to Silver Island with her sister to get their late mother’s affairs in order, she expected to inherit her mother’s bistro along with their childhood home, not to discover a half sister they never knew existed, and a handsome vacationer camped out on her mother’s patio.

Workaholic Aiden Aldridge has been sent to Silver Island on a work-free vacation, armed with a “Let Loose List,” and ordered to get a life by the much-younger sister he raised after the death of their parents. After years of focusing on his sister’s well-being, he’s blindsided by his intense attraction to the gorgeous, free-spirited Abby.

Aiden might not know much about chilling out, but he’s excellent at striking deals. He helps Abby with the restaurant in exchange for her help in tackling the items on his list. Sparks fly as Aiden and Abby work, and play, side by side. Intimate conversations lead to steamy kisses and undeniable passion. But there’s more to Aiden then Abby knows, and when the truth comes out, their new romance is put to the test, as the two find out if true love really can conquer all

••••••

REVIEW:MAYBE WE WILL is the first instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult SILVER HARBOR erotic, romance series-a spin off from the author’s The Steeles of Silver Island which in turn is one of several spin offs from the author’s Love in Bloom series. This is twenty-eight year old, chef Abby deMessieres, and thirty-eight year old, investor Aiden Aldridge’s story line.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Aiden and Abby) MAYBE WE WILL focuses on twenty-eight year old, Abby deMessieres upon her return to Silver Island following the death of mother, a woman who struggled in the years following the death of her beloved husband. The reading of the will revealed a few surprises for Abby and her sister Deirdra but Deirdra continues to struggle with her mother’s emotional fall-out since the death of their father, and offers her share of the family owned Bistro to our story line heroine. Meanwhile, Abby reconsiders the direction of her life including reopening the restaurant that held many family memories, memories and reminders of what was and what will never be. When a stranger offers to help reinvigorate the once thriving family owned business, Abby finds herself falling for a man who is only in town for a very short time. Enter investor Aiden Aldridge. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Abby and Aiden, and the potential fall-out as Aiden’s secret is about to be exposed.

Aiden Aldridge raised his younger sister after the accident that took the life of their parents but Aiden never took time for himself and in this, Aiden’s sister Remi, sends her brother on a month long vacation with a bucket list of to dos, in an effort to give her brother a chance at a real life. Aiden never expected to lose his heart to our story line heroine, heart that sits precariously on the edge of cliff when his secret is discovered.

The relationship between Aiden and Abby begins as a ‘chance meeting’ wherein Aiden is found camping out on Abby’s mother’s front door. Claiming he liked the view, Aiden would begin a slow seduction of our story line heroine, a seduction that is met with an equal attraction between Abby and our story line hero. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

As per Melissa Foster’s style of writing, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting story line characters, many if not most of whom were introduced in the a number of the author’s other series. The camaraderie between characters is fun, fresh and feisty-you always feel like a part of the family when it is their turn to say goodbye.

MAYBE WE WILL is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love; a story of secrets, lies, history and acceptance. The premise is heart warming and emotional- I guessed the twist within the first few pages of the book; the romance is seductive; the characters are energetic, sassy and real.

ABOUT THE BOOK:Release Date March 31, 2021

Can a man who resents the hand he’s been dealt and a woman who spends her days grateful for every little thing find true love in each other’s arms—or are their differences stronger than both of them? Find out in this funny, sexy, heartfelt romance, and fall in love with Grant and Jules on the sandy shores of Silver Island, home to coffee shops, boat races, and midnight rendezvous.

Even war heroes need a little help sometimes…
After spending years fighting for his country and too damn long learning to navigate life with a prosthetic leg, Grant Silver returns to Silver Island to figure out a future he couldn’t fathom without fatigues and a gun in his hand. He’d almost forgotten how a man could suffocate from the warmth and caring community in which he’d grown up, and if that weren’t bad enough, his buddies’ beautiful and far-too-chipper younger sister won’t stop flitting into his life, trying to sprinkle happy dust everywhere she goes.

As a cancer survivor, Jules Steele knows better than to count on seeing tomorrow. She doesn’t take a single moment for granted, and she isn’t about to let a man who used to be charming and full of life waste the future he’s been blessed with. She’s determined to get through to him, even if it takes a few steamy kisses.

REVIEW:  MY TRUE LOVE is the second instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE STEELES OF SILVER ISLAND erotic, romance series-a spin off from the author’s LOVE IN BLOOM series. This is thirty-three year old, US Special Forces vet Grant Silver, and twenty-five year old, store owner Jules Steele’s story line. MY TRUE LOVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Grant and Jules) MY TRUE LOVE follows the friends to lovers relationship between thirty-three year old, former US Special Forces soldier Grant Silver, and twenty-five year old, store owner Jules Steele. Grant Silver has been struggling for a very long time since the implosion of his parent’s relationship, and his recent discharge from the US army following an IED explosion that resulted in the loss of his lower left leg. Unable to settle, Grant remains secluded away from everyone including family and friends, friends like store owner Jules Steele, a young woman whose has loved Grant for most of her life. As Grant continues to struggle with the upcoming holidays, Jules pushes our hero to move on with his life, a life she hopes will include their own happily ever after but Grant continues to battle to the demons from his past, and the possibility that he is no longer a viable member of society. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Grant and Jules, and the potential fall-out as Grant feels lost without the next mission, and his time with Jules may only be a temporary hold-over until something else may come along.

Jules Steele is a spunky, quirky, cheerful idealist and optimistic person that finds the positive in everything and everyone including Grant Silver. Unable to stand back and watch Grant spiral out of control, Jules begins a campaign of ‘signs’ in the hopes of pushing Grant back together with family, in an effort to prove that everyone deserves love and a happily ever after. Grant Silver battles between head and heart believing he is unworthy of our story line heroine. Struggling with his family’s unconventional dynamics, Grant is biding his time until he is able to move away from Silver Island, and the family legacy that continues to haunt but Grant will be blind sided when the truth is revealed, a truth that will change his perspective going forward.

The relationship between Grant and Jules is a friends to lovers, a relationship in which Grant struggles. Believing himself unworthy of Jules love, Grant continues push away our story line heroine until he realizes that Jules is the woman that calls to his heart. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including both immediate and extended families for both the Silvers and the Steeles; Grant’s siblings Fitz, Bellamy, Keira, and Wells, and their parents Margot and Alexander; Jules’ siblings Archer, Jock, Levi, and Leni, their parents Shelley and Steve, and grandmother Lenore.

MY TRUE LOVE is a story of family and relationships, loss, struggle and acceptance, friendships and love. The premise is emotional and real; the romance is seductive and intimate; the characters are playful and protective. MY TRUE LOVE is a wonderful and uplifting story.

•••••••••

REVIEW: HOT FOR LOVE is the seventh instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE BRADENS & MONTGOMERY: PLEASANT HILL-OAK FALLS erotic, romance series –a spin off and companion to several of the author’s other series. This is rancher Patricia ‘Trixie’ Jericho, and thirty-one year old, freestyle horse trainer / rancher Nick Braden’s story line. HOT FOR LOVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Nick and Trixie) HOT FOR LOVE follows the best friends to lovers romance between rancher Trixie Jericho, and thirty-one year old, freestyle horse trainer and rancher Nick Braden. Trixie Jericho has plans to own and operate a miniature horse centre in her home town of Oak Falls, Virginia of which her horses would become therapy animals for hospitals, nursing homes, sick children, as well as birthday parties and fun. Trixie has asked her best friend Nick Braden to help with acquiring and training the miniature horses in Pleasant Hill, Maryland, placing her in the direct line of fire while she lives with our hero for up to one month. Nick Braden doesn’t do relationships, and struggles with the demons from his past. Always considered the glue that held together his family in the face of loss and adversity, Nick’s heart and emotions have been fractured but for the love he feels for his best friend Trix. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Trixie and Nick, and the potential fall-out as Trixie’s time with Nick comes to a close.

Nick Braden battles between head and heart refusing to cross the proverbial line between friendship and love. Years earlier, the family was torn apart by the death of a friend, a death that sent Nick’s siblings in different directions. Never giving love a chance, Nick has harbored feelings for Trixie but refuses to lose his best friend in the wake of a love affair gone bad. Trixie Jericho has loved Nick Braden for as long as she can remember but believes Nick is too busy with the ‘buckle bunnies’ on the rodeo circuit. Sitting on the sidelines watching the women throw themselves at the man that she loves, our heroine takes matters into her own hands in an effort to prove he is worthy of her love.

The relationship between Nick and Trixie is a best friend to lovers romance wherein Nick struggles with what happened years before, and the possibility of losing the friendship with our story line heroine. Trixie believes Nick is the man that she will always love but Trixie knows that Nick struggles with the demons from his past. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including Nick’s sibling Beau and Charlotte, Jillian, Jax, Graham and Morgyn, Zev and Carly, and their parents Clint and Lily; Trixie’s siblings Jeb, Trace and Brindle, Shane, JJ, as well as their parents Nancy and Waylon, as well as Dr. Jon Butterscotch, miniature horses breeder Travis Helms, Trixie’s friend Lindsay, and several cameos and appearances from characters found throughout the author’s numerous series.

HOT FOR LOVE is a story of family, friendships, relationships and love; loss, grief, acceptance and moving forward. The premise is inviting and realistic; the romance is flirty, sexy and spicy; the characters are sensitive, animated and energetic. HOT FOR LOVE is another wonderful addition to Melissa Foster’s The Bradens & Montgomerys: Pleasant Hill-Oak Falls.

When a midnight party brings them together, passion ignites and old wounds are opened. Grace sets down the ground rules for the next three weeks.

Embracing Her Heart (The Montgomerys Book 1) by [Foster, Melissa]
After Charlotte Sterling loses her last family member, she moves to Sterling House, her family’s Colorado mountain inn, to live a solitary life. As an erotic romance writer, her days and nights are filled with passion and intrigue-even if only fictional. She loves her busy, quiet lifestyle, and she learned early on that real men can’t live up to the fictional heroes she creates-until ruggedly handsome Beau Braden arrives to do some work at the inn and, for the first time in forever, she’s intrigued by a real man.

 

Beau lost his first love years ago, and he’s never let go of his guilt over her death. As he nears the anniversary of his loss, he is on the cusp of becoming the star of a home-renovation reality show. Escaping the painful memories of his past to work at the defunct old inn is just the promise of solitude he needs to clear his head before diving in to the all-too-public career. But he didn’t count on being attracted to the whimsical, adorably sexy innkeeper.
Neither Charlotte nor Beau is looking for an attachment or a fling. But the more they learn about each other, the closer they become. Romantic evenings lead to intimate conversations, and neither can deny their deep connection or the passion it sparks. They’ve never fully healed on their own, but together maybe anything is possible.

The Gritty Truth (The Whiskeys 7) by Melissa Foster-Review tour

The Gritty Truth (The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor 7) by Melissa Foster-Review tour

Amazon.com   Amazon.co.uk   Barnes and Noble    KOBO    Apple   GPlay   Paperback

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 7, 2020

THE GRITTY TRUTH is the perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more!

Recovering drug addict Quincy Gritt has fought his demons. He’s confessed to his crimes and conquered his addictions. He’s finally ready to go after sweet, sexy Roni, the gorgeous brunette who won a date with him in a charity auction five months ago and has been putting him off, and driving him wild, ever since.

Dancer Veronica “Roni” Wescott worked hard to escape the seedy area where she was raised and followed her dreams to Julliard, only to have them shattered in the blink of an eye. She fought hard and regained her footing, but then the rug was pulled out from under her again when the grandmother who raised her passed away, leaving Roni feeling adrift in a world she knows very little about outside of dance. And then there’s Charlie Hunnam–lookalike Quincy Gritt—the man whose late-night texts pulled her through her grief and have been setting her heart aflutter for months.

Quincy pulls out all the stops, determined to prove that their friendship is only the beginning of what’s destined to be so much more. Romantic nights lead to smoldering passion and a deep connection too strong to be denied. But when Quincy’s past comes back to haunt him, can he and Roni accept their new gritty truth, or will Quincy spiral back into the darkness and lose the future he fought so hard to have?

••••••••

REVIEW:THE GRITTY TRUTH is the seventh instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult The Whiskeys: Dark Knights at Peaceful Harbor, erotic romance series. This is recovering addict and bookstore employee Quincy Gritt, and twenty-four year old dance instructor Veronica ‘Roni’ Wescott’s story line. THE GRITTY TRUTH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading TRU BLUE for back story and history. Quincy is the brother of Truman Gritt (Tru Blue #1).

Told from dual third person perspectives (Quincy and Roni) THE GRITTY TRUTH follows the building romance and relationship between recovering addict and bookstore employee Quincy Gritt, and twenty-four year old dance instructor Veronica ‘Roni’ Wescott. Months earlier Roni’s friends bid on, and won a date for Roni at the Whiskey Bro’s bachelor auction with our hero Quincy Gritt but Roni struggled to make time for the man that stirred something deep within our story line heroine. Persistent and determined to get a date with Roni Wescott, Quincy makes plans to seduce our heroine starting with a surprise picnic in the back of his truck and a scavenger hunt where anything and everything is possible. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Roni and Quincy, and the potential fall-out as Quincy’s past is determined to destroy our story line hero.

Quincy Gritt is broken; a recovering addict who struggles in the face of past regrets, mistakes and the fall-out of his own mother’s addictions on the children she left behind. Revealing the truth to Roni may threaten everything Quincy had hoped for including a future with our story line heroine. Roni Westcott was a burgeoning star at the Julliard School of Dance but an accident destroyed her hopes for the future, as well as our heroine’s self-esteem. Secrets will be revealed; issues of trust must be addressed but the past refuses to let go when the truth comes to light, and Quincy, once again, must face the demons that destroyed his life.

The relationship between Quincy and Roni is one of immediate attraction when Roni’s friends ‘won’ Quincy at the local bachelor auction. For months Quincy and Roni danced around their attraction to one another as Roni battled between head and heart believing her scars would detract from a potential love. The $ex scenes are intimate, intense and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, energetic and familiar secondary and supporting characters including Whiskey patriarch Biggs and his wife Red; Gemma, Tru, Lincoln and Kennedy (Tru Blue #1), Bear and Crystal (Truly, Madly Whiskey #2), Bullet and Finlay (Driving Whiskey Wild #3), Sarah and Bones (Wicked Whiskey Love #4), Josie and Jed (Mad About Moon #5), Dixie Whiskey and Jace Stone (Taming My Whiskey #6); Quincy’s friend Penny Wilson and Scott Beckley; Dark Knights’ nomad Desmond ‘Diesel’ Black and Tracey Kline; Simone Davidson, as well as several characters with cameo appearances. Little Lincoln is priceless and ‘booful’ Penny and Scott’s story is next in the novella In for a Penny, and Diesel and Tracey’s story Running on Diesel.

THE GRITTY TRUTH is an emotional and heart breaking story of addiction and recovery; power and abuse; secrets, revelations, vengeance and love. The premise is profound and real; the characters are animated, impassioned, broken but healing; the romance is spicy, imaginative and flirty. Melissa Foster’s THE GRITTY TRUTH looks at courage, recovery, challenges, and acceptance wrapped in a package of romance and love.

The perfect love story for those who enjoy fiercely loyal and insanely sexy alpha heroes, smart, sassy heroines, strong family bonds, bikers, babies, and more!

Being the princess of the Dark Knights motorcycle club doesn’t come with a white knight or a fairy-tale castle, and that’s okay, because Dixie Whiskey has never needed a man to slay her dragons or make her whole. Even so, after watching each of her brothers fall in love, she’d sure like a shot at her own happily ever after. But with the Dark Knights watching over her and the only man she’s ever wanted out of reach, she’s not holding her breath.

As the launch of Silver-Stone Cycles’ biggest line approaches, Jace Stone is left needing a favor from the one woman who holds the power to take him to his knees. He knows when it comes to sinfully gorgeous and sharp-tongued Dixie Whiskey, he must stay on his toes and keep his walls firmly in place. But Jace needs her for his business—and Jace Stone always gets what he wants.

When the tall, gruff, and darkly handsome biker presents an opportunity that any other woman might see as the chance of a lifetime, Dixie turns him down flat. But Jace is determined, and he pulls out all the stops—sending Dixie’s overprotective brothers up in arms. Rebellious Dixie takes a stand—going after the freedom, and the man, she’s always wanted. One scorching kiss leads to an undeniable connection, but Jace isn’t looking to be tied down, and Dixie refuses to play second fiddle. Can two untamable hearts find forever love in each other’s arms?

Find out in Searching for Love, a deliciously sexy, funny, and emotional second-chance romance.

••••••••

REVIEW: SEARCHING FOR LOVE is the sixth instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult THE BRADENS AND MONTGOMERYS: PLEASANT HILL-OAK FALLS erotic, romance series. This is treasure hunter/diver Zev Braden, and chocolate shop owner Carly Dylan’s story line. SEARCHING FOR LOVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines and series is revealed where necessary. THE BRADENS AND MONTGOMERY: Pleasant Hill-Oak Falls series is a spin off from several of the author’s other ongoing series.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Zev and Carly) SEARCHING FOR LOVE is a second chance romance focusing on treasure hunter/diver Zev Braden, and chocolate shop owner Carly Dylan. Childhood best friends Zev and Carly’s world fell apart approximately ten years earlier when their best friend Tory Raznick was killed leaving Zev struggling with guilt, and Carly alone to battle the heart break when Zev walked away. Fast forward to present day wherein Zev’s brother’s Beau wedding to Charlotte would reunite our story line couple but not before the pain of loss would remind Zev and Carly that love is stronger the second time around. What ensues is the rekindling romance and relationship between Zev and Carly, and the potential fall-out as Zev’s business has literally stuck gold, and Zev must get back to his treasure hunting ways.

Carly Dylan’s lost two people the day her best friend Tory died: Tory to a car accident, and Zev to his personal guilt and grief but Carly was caught unaware of Zev’s need to run, a need that left our heroine heart broken and barely able to survive. Zev Braden struggles with issues of guilt in the aftermath of Tory’s death, a death that was not his fault but a death he continues to blame on himself. Running from Carly was the biggest mistake of his life, a mistake of which he needs to make amends in the face of his continuing love for the woman who still holds his heart.

The relationship between Zev and Carly is one of second chances; a rekindling romance that must face another obstacle as Zev’s deep sea adventures has struck gold, adventures of which Carly had always wanted to be a part. Having spent most of their youth and teenaged years together skydiving, cliff diving, parasailing and deep sea diving, Carly and Zev looked forward to a life together until Zev ran without looking back. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a very large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters, many of whom we have met in previous stories and related series including Carly’s co-workers Birdie and Quinn; Zev’s parents and his siblings Beau, Nick, Graham, and Jillian; cowboy and Charlotte’s friend Cutter Long. Thank goodness a family tree is supplied at the beginning of the story 😉

SEARCHING FOR LOVE is a story of second chances; of grief and healing; of family, friendships, relationships and love. The premise is spicy, imaginative yet heart breaking; the romance is tender, seductive and provocative; the characters are spirited, energetic, and animated but it is the wounded hearts of Zev and Carly that cry for healing and love. SEARCHING FOR LOVE is another intoxicating look at the people who live and work in Pleasant Hill-Oak Falls.

After Charlotte Sterling loses her last family member, she moves to Sterling House, her family’s Colorado mountain inn, to live a solitary life. As an erotic romance writer, her days and nights are filled with passion and intrigue-even if only fictional. She loves her busy, quiet lifestyle, and she learned early on that real men can’t live up to the fictional heroes she creates-until ruggedly handsome Beau Braden arrives to do some work at the inn and, for the first time in forever, she’s intrigued by a real man.

 

Beau lost his first love years ago, and he’s never let go of his guilt over her death. As he nears the anniversary of his loss, he is on the cusp of becoming the star of a home-renovation reality show. Escaping the painful memories of his past to work at the defunct old inn is just the promise of solitude he needs to clear his head before diving in to the all-too-public career. But he didn’t count on being attracted to the whimsical, adorably sexy innkeeper.
Neither Charlotte nor Beau is looking for an attachment or a fling. But the more they learn about each other, the closer they become. Romantic evenings lead to intimate conversations, and neither can deny their deep connection or the passion it sparks. They’ve never fully healed on their own, but together maybe anything is possible.
The Bradens & Montgomerys are part of Melissa’s Love in Bloom big-family romance collection. All Love in Bloom novels are written to stand alone and may also be enjoyed as part of the larger series, so dive right into this fun, sexy romance.

TRAILS OF LOVE

When Graham Braden travels to Oak Falls, Virginia to attend the wedding of his buddy Reed Cross to Grace Montgomery, he sticks around to help with renovations to Reed’s new theater. The last thing he expects is to be asked to assess and possibly invest in Grace’s sister Morgyn’s business endeavor. Graham is a careful, keen businessman, and Morgyn is impulsive, disorganized, and more interested in the energy flow in her eclectic retail shop than in the accuracy of her records. While Graham isn’t ready to open his pockets to the sassy, sexy business owner, he may be ready to open his heart.

MAKING YOU MINE

Knox Bentley never liked the pomp and circumstance that came with being wealthy. He’d distanced himself from his pretentious family and their fortune as a young adult and found his own path to success. But even with the world at his fingertips, he realizes something is missing, and after a long stay overseas, he finally knows exactly what it is. His no-strings-attached hookups with Aubrey Stewart, an exquisite and stubbornly independent blonde, are no longer enough for him. They connect on every level, but Aubrey is a fierce businesswoman with a new movie channel on the horizon and no time for much else. She is the deal he can’t close, the precious jewel even his billions can’t buy. Now that he’s back in the States, he’s determined to show her that what they have goes beyond the bedroom and finally make her his.
