REVIEW:WILD CRAZY HEARTS is the fourth instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult BRADENS AND MONTGOMERYS: Pleasant Hill-Oak Falls erotic, romance series- a part of the author’s LOVE IN BLOOM series. This is twenty-five year old, high school teacher Brindle Montgomery, and rancher Trace Jericho’s story line WILD CRAZY HEARTS 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 (Brindle and Trace) WILD CRAZY HEARTS focuses on the struggling relationship between childhood sweethearts, twenty-five year old, high school teacher Brindle Montgomery, and rancher Trace Jericho. Brindle and Trace have been best friends, soulmates and lovers most of their adult lives but Brindle struggled with their on again, off again love affair so in an attempt to discover what it is she wants from life, Brindle heads to Paris alone, only to return pregnant and scared. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship and love between Brindle and Trace, as they navigate the ups and downs of pregnancy and more.

WILD CRAZY HEARTS is a story of family, friendship, secrets and lies. Brindle struggles with her burgeoning news, news that has everyone jumping to conclusions, condemnation, or hoping for more information. Trace has never stopped loving Brindle Montgomery, and her surprising revelations throw our hero off kilter, as well as tipping his well-ordered life into overdrive, as he looks towards the future with the woman he loves. Regardless of Brindle’s announcement and surprise Trace is the man willing to step up and offer our heroine a happily ever after.

The relationship between Trace and Brindle is a back and forth, up and down, exhaustive affair between two people who have loved one another for most of their lives. With no commitment towards the future, Brindle takes off to Paris in an attempt to reconsider her options including the love for our story line hero. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and seductive 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 the Montgomery and Jericho siblings, cousins, family and friends. The fast paced premise is entertaining and welcoming; the romance is fated, spicy and passionate; the characters are familiar, real, flirty and sassy. Melissa Foster invites the reader into her decadent and sexy world of the Bradens and Montgomerys.

More Bradens & Montgomerys: Pleasant Hill – Oak Falls 

EMBRACING HER HEART

Leaving New York City and returning to her hometown to teach a screenplay writing class seems like just the break Grace Montgomery needs. Until her sisters wake her at four thirty in the morning to watch the hottest guys in town train wild horses and she realizes that escaping her sisters’ drama-filled lives was a lot easier from hundreds of miles away. To make matters worse, she spots the one man she never wanted to see again—ruggedly handsome Reed Cross. 

Reed was one of Michigan’s leading historical preservation experts, but on the heels of catching his girlfriend in bed with his business partner, his uncle suffers a heart attack. Reed cuts all ties and returns home to Oak Falls to run his uncle’s business. A chance encounter with Grace, his first love, brings back memories he’s spent years trying to escape. 

Grace is bound and determined not to fall under Reed’s spell again—and Reed wants more than another taste of the woman he’s never forgotten. 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. No touching, no kissing, and if she has it her way, no breathing, because every breath he takes steals her ability to think. But Reed has other ideas…

ANYTHING FOR LOVE

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 – Releasing January 22nd, 2020

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.
