Lovers at Heart Reimagined Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE….
Discover the magic of New York Times bestseller Melissa Foster's writing, and see why millions of readers have fallen in love with the Bradens.

A Note From The Author:
If you’re new to my stories, get ready to meet the couple who started the Braden sensation! Avid fans of the Love in Bloom big-family romance collection may have read Treat and Max’s original story, Lovers at Heart. For the past several years, I have had the nagging feeling that there was MORE to Treat and Max’s story than I had originally thought. If you read and loved their original story, you’ll adore this new, more mature and detailed spin on it! Find out the REST of Treat and Max’s story and fall in love all over again in LOVERS AT HEART, REIMAGINED!

In LOVERS AT HEART, REIMAGINED…
Treat Braden wasn’t looking for love when Max Armstrong walked into his Nassau resort, but he saw right through the efficient and capable facade she wore like a shield to the sweet, sensual woman beneath. One magnificent evening together sparked an intense connection, and for the first time in his life Treat wanted more than a casual affair. But something caused Max to turn away, and now, after weeks of unanswered phone calls and longing for the one woman he cannot have, Treat is going back to his family’s ranch to try to finally move on.

A chance encounter brings Treat and Max together again, and it turns into a night of intense passion and honesty. When Max reveals her secret, painful past, Treat vows to do everything within his power to win Max’s heart forever—including helping her finally face her demons head-on.
***

Within the Love in Bloom big-family romance collection you'll find fiercely loyal heroes and smart, empowered women on their search for true love. They're flawed, funny, and easy to relate to. Characters from each series appear in future Love in Bloom books. All Love in Bloom books may be read as stand-alone novels or as part of the larger series.

See all of The Bradens HERE

My thoughts:

I read Treat and Max's story before, but this newly reimagined story made me so very happy! Treat and Max started to fall for each other over the phone, had a few hours of intimacy, then a misunderstanding ruined everything.

A chance encounter gives them the opportunity to fix their mistake, but can they get beyond their past? They each have a history that makes a relationship difficult, and they've burned the bridge between them.

Can time heal their wounds? Or are they bound to be separate?

This is a steamy, wonderful novel, with a group of friends and supporting characters that I love. I can't wait to read the next in the series to continue the story!

My thoughts:

Max and Treat fell for each other over many phone calls while helping to plan a wedding. A few hours of passion should've been the beginning of the story, but a misunderstanding quickly made it the end...

Until a chance encounter gives them a second chance at love. Can they get past their histories and give each other another chance at life?

I love Mrs. Cole's Sweet With Heat stories! It's a wonderful, heartfelt romance without too much detail or explicit scenes. It's perfect for when you when you want something sweet instead of something raunchy.

That is…until her horse is injured and the son of the man her father has been feuding with for more than forty years comes to her rescue. She’s spent forever trying to deny her attraction to headstrong, too-handsome-for-his-own-good cowboy Rex Braden. The last thing she needs is that particular man complicating her life.

Fiercely loyal Rex Braden has never put anyone or anything before his family. Despite the irate family history, sparks fly between Rex and Jade, unleashing fifteen years of stifled, forbidden love—and causing the rebel in each of them to rear its powerful head.

Loyalties are tested, and relationships are strained as Rex and Jade find out if true love really can conquer all.

AT Death's Door Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE....

It's the perfect system -- for the rich and powerful.

But who has the guts to take them down?

All it takes is a slight shift in the tectonic plates and two thousand miles later, a tidal wave engulfs the Big Island. 

This time, the deluge is in the form of greed and treachery. And many in the land of paradise will do anything to keep it hidden under the surface.

But when severed limbs start rolling onto the shore, Alex has another thing in mind -- even when her heart is gutted. Despite the shock of a lifetime, Alex won't stop until someone pays the ultimate price.

Will she be destroyed in the process?

My thoughts:

Alex, Ozzie and families decide to take an amazing vacation in Hawaii and meet up with friends from the past. Unfortunately an attempted murder and a house explosion ruin their vacation! As they're trying to wrap their heads around it a friend goes missing and someone from their past shows up on the island.

Is the yakuza at fault? Or is someone else running the show?

As always, Mr. Mefford is the master of mystery and of very well-timed plot twists. This book literally can't be put down once you get hooked!

This is an amazing continuation of the series, and I'm waiting rather impatiently for the next book!

The Scoop 

By now you're probably aware that the Alex Troutt thrillers, Ivy Nash thrillers, and the Ozzie Novak thrillers are all under the same Redemption Thriller Series umbrella. Why? Because, ultimately, they all connect -- Alex, Ivy, Ozzie. How? That's part of the mystery that I'm slowly unveiling throughout the Redemption Thriller Series.

Through each sub-series, characters from different books appear in the other novels. If it adds suspense, intrigue, or even a good laugh, I've included a cross-over character -- it's a lot more fun that way. Plus -- and here's the real kicker -- the final six novels will bring all of the major characters together -- Alex, Ivy, Ozzie. It will be explosive and gut-wrenching…in a way that will leave you breathless.

About the Author

Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, #2 bestselling author on Barnes and Noble, and a Readers' Favorite Gold Medal winner.

John W. Mefford has been writing his debut novel since he first entered the work force almost thirty years ago, although he never put words on paper until 2009. Once he started writing, however, he couldn't stop. Many readers ask John from where he gets his ideas. Well, he's a veteran of the corporate rat-race, a former journalist, and he's always been an astute observer of human and social behavior. On top of that, he's really good at embellishing.

A member of International Thriller Writers, John writes novels full of electrifying suspense -- the same types of books he has loved to read since before he could shave.

When he’s not writing, he chases his youth on bike or a basketball court, all while making mental
notes of people and societies across the land.

Love Like Ours Book Review and Giveaway

NEW RELEASE........
Talia Dalton lives her life on cruise control. Despite her successful career as a professor, she prefers protecting her broken heart to taking chances. She’s calm, cool, collected, and steady. Until the morning she takes her eyes off that familiar road and almost runs over the sexiest man she’s ever seen. It may not be the best way to start the day, but it might be the type of shake-up she needs.

Male dancer Derek Grant has goals, and nothing is going to get in the way of achieving them. As a graduate student and the sole caretaker of his ailing father, he hasn’t much time for relationships. Then Talia crashes into his life. Sweet, pretty—and so buttoned-up that he can’t wait to help her cut loose.

For Derek, falling in love was a beautiful accident waiting to happen. And it might be exactly what Talia needs—if she’s willing to let go of the past and embrace every surprise Derek has to offer.

My thoughts:

Talia and Derek live hugely different lives. Talia is a professor who doesn't take chances or veer from the norm, while Derek is a student and a exotic dancer. Yet they're both nearly identical at their very core. They both adore their families and are protecting themselves from a broken heart or a damaged soul.

Talia is the odd one out in her family, far more straight-laced then everyone else, but a love potion is about to change all of that. While on a group phone call with her family trying to get her to date, she nearly runs over Derek with her car.

Derek is working extremely hard, both on his current job and towards his future career. Beyond that is the all-encompassing care and compassion for his ill father, which is an immense struggle but keeps him connected to the only family he has left.

Derek convinces Talia to go out with him, and the balance in both of their lives shift. Can they have a relationship without causing problems for Derek's father? Can they get past their differences?

This is a wonderful, heartfelt story, and it's amazing to experience the love and heartache that comes with caring for an family member with Alzheimer's. It's a joy to watch Derek be so committed to his father and their future, but made me cry with their struggle and hardships.

The Real Thing (Sugar Lake Book 1)

Fall in love on the shores of Sugar Lake in the small town of Sweetwater with Willow Dalton and Zane Walker.

This sassy, spirited baker is fine with heat—but is her fake fiancé too hot to handle?

Bakery owner Willow Dalton’s friendship with Zane Walker has always been a bit complicated. Now a scrumptiously hot A-list actor, Zane’s always had a reputation as player. He’s arrogant, and he’s definitely not boyfriend material. Sure, he did Willow a favor by agreeing to take her virginity before college, but is that reason enough to go along with a fake engagement a decade later—even if it comes with a real diamond ring? 

Zane should have known better. Nothing involving Willow has ever been easy. Still, he knows her better than anyone, and becoming America’s hottest new leading man means cleaning up his reputation. An “engagement” to curvy, sass-mouthed Willow is the perfect PR move . . . provided no one gets hurt.

Now Zane and Willow’s little white lie has turned into an irresistible recipe for sweet temptation. And soon no one will be able to tell the difference between their fake engagement or the real thing—including them.

Only for You (Sugar Lake Book 2)

Love only works when your heart is in the right place. Hers could be right next door…

Single mom Bridgette Dalton doesn’t have time to stop and smell the roses—not even in her own flower shop. But that doesn’t mean she hasn’t noticed Bodhi Booker. Her ruggedly handsome next-door neighbor would be the perfect candidate for a no-strings fling. Having loved and lost, Bridgette’s not ready to hand over her heart…but she could use a distraction.

Bodhi has one rule: never leave anyone behind. As a special operative, he knows that each new mission is more dangerous than the last. He’s never made a promise of forever to a woman, not even to the beautiful widow who has him tied in knots. And if there were anyone who could tempt him into putting down roots, it would be Bridgette and her adorable son.

But as his next deployment nears, they make a startling discovery. Their passion, meant only for the here and now, might already be blossoming into something more…
