(Love in Bloom: The Bradens at Peaceful Harbor Book 5)
written by
New York Times Bestselling Author
Melissa Foster
Fall Romance
In WHISPER OF LOVE... Tempest Braden adores her family
and her small hometown, but sometimes too much of a good thing can be
confining. At almost thirty, having watched most of her siblings find
true love, she's anxious to experience her own happily ever after, and
the move to Pleasant Hill, Maryland, is just the change she needs. When
she rents a room from ruggedly handsome, and closed-off, artist Nash
Morgan and his adorable son, Phillip, she thinks she's found a little
slice of heaven on the outskirts of town, where she can concentrate on
building her business. That is, if she can ignore the undeniable heat
between her and the sinfully hot single father.
When Nash bought
his farmette, he had one goal in mind―to provide a loving, stable home
for his son. He never imagined he'd be raising Phillip alone, or renting
out a room to keep their heads above water. Then again, he never
imagined losing his brother, or spending two years sailing around the
world with parents who seemed to forget one son was still alive.
Sparks
fly from the moment Tempest moves in, and her positive energy and
inquisitive nature brings new life into Nash and Phillip's quiet,
confined world. For the first time in years, Nash wants to let a woman
into his world, but while his loss made him stronger, that strength came
at a price, leaving him walled off and wary of opening his heart again.

Bradens (Peaceful Harbor) are part of the Love in Bloom big family
romance collection. Characters from each series appear in future books.

THIS IS A RE-RELEASE!!! SUMMER PRESCOTT BOOKS
IS PROUD TO PRESENT THE RE-RELEASE OF Jellies,
Jams and Bodies, under its new name, with a brand new cover, and a
sumptuous recipe included!!
Welcome to Whipper Will
Junction, a small beach town in Maine with spectacular views of the mountains,
where the residents all know each other and each other’s business. Tourist
season brings the sleepy little berg to life, and locals often find themselves
outnumbered by visitors, fifty to one. The idyllic hamlet is known for being a
safe, quiet place to live, and until recently, there hadn’t been a murder in
Whipper Will Junction for over forty years.
A recent spate of murders
threatens to rock the town to its core, particularly when Richard Wells, a
beloved elder statesman of the town disappears, leaving residents to wonder who
or what is causing the tragic upheaval.
Tabitha Moon, the owner of a
local shop, Jellies, Jams, and Weddings, is a bit bewildered to find herself
smack dab in the middle of a real life mystery, and vows to do her best to help
solve it. Teaming up with her best friend, Jenny, and her adorable crush, Greg,
the determined shopkeeper sets out on a mission to make Whipper Will Junction
safe again. Can the trio find Richard Wells before it’s too late?
With a sprinkling of loveable
locals and their often misguided efforts, you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll
fall in love with the down-home goodness of Whipper Will Junction. Come visit
for a spell, in a town where the gossip is plentiful, and so are the bodies...

Hope Wells is a lifetime resident of Celebration Township and lives on
coffee fumes and love stories at her downtown store, Beans and Books. As
each one of her friends has found love, she’s been glad for them—and
secretly envious of their happiness. As much as she wants to find a man,
she knows that the odds are stacked against her, especially with the
medical issue she has kept hidden from everyone.
Aaron Findley
was born in Celebration but left when he was a boy. A few months back,
he returned after his mother passed away, and even the racecars he
drives couldn’t get him out of town fast enough. His sister, Alesandra
might enjoy the little podunk town, but he prefers the fast life: fast
cars, fast cities, and beautiful, flashy women.
Six weeks before
Thanksgiving, Aaron crashes his racecar and lands in the hospital in
serious condition. When he is discharged three weeks later, he finds
that he has fewer friends than he originally thought and a career that
went up in flames with his car. His only choice is to convalesce at his
sister’s house in Celebration. Grumpy and bored, Aaron finds himself
hiding at the small coffee shop for hours as he comes to terms with his
new life.
As Hope befriends a less arrogant Aaron, she chips
away at his thick armor and realizes that the two of them have quite a
bit in common—but will their friendship turn into a blessing for them
both, or will it be just another crash and burn that will destroy them?
Now you can do something to help spread awareness, just by downloading a book.
From October 11th - October 31st if you download any of the following three books, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Domestic Violence Awareness.
I'm a huge supporter of the Domestic Violence campaigns. For years as a Police Officer I saw the worst of the worst. From verbal arguments to homicide at the hands of a partner, I saw the devastation that it caused. Not only did I see it first hand, but there was a time in my life that I too lived as a victim. That is why I spent several years working on the Board of Directors for my local Domestic Violence Center, and why I write stories to educate people about what happens behind closed doors and inside the mind of a victim.
What you can do to help - Purchase a copy of one of these books, or all three, and a portion of each sale will be donated to a Domestic Violence Center.
Note: At this time, these three books are only available on Amazon. The Kindle Reader App is free to download on Amazon.
You're Not Alone
Trinity Morris, co-founder of You’re Not Alone, has a domestic violence
past that still haunts her ten years later. She is devoted to helping
victims find freedom and to sharing information on how to help them
through their emotional and violent trials. While Trinity is presenting
at a seminar, she comes across Gavin, a police officer who knows her
past all too well.
It’s been ten years since he last saw her, but
the moment Gavin’s eyes land on her, he’s intent on getting to know the
woman who has haunted his dreams all these years.
Can Gavin
break through the wall that Trinity has built around herself, or will
the present and the past collide and take her away from him again?
“It sounded so simple in theory; ready... aim... fire... but what actually transpired was so much more.”
Officer
Nicole Nolan holds the gun steady in her hands, knowing that life will
be forever altered once she pulls the trigger. Her position as a small
town police officer is to protect those who cannot protect themselves.
It is her job, her career and her life.
Amanda stands where
protection does not exist. With several failed relationships behind her,
Amanda turns a blind eye to the possessiveness Josh displays in order
to sooth her desperate need to be loved. As the mental abuse turns
violent, Amanda must deal with the denial and embarrassment of being a
victim once again. With her emotional and physical health siting on the
edge, she must fight to regain control of her life.
A gripping story with one final destination, but will it be life or death?
Barbara lives in constant fear of her husband. She finally summons the
courage to leave with their young daughter, Allie, but dreads the moment
her husband learns of their escape. In his desire to control them and
bend them to his will, he will leave no stone unturned to punish
them--especially Barbara.
Grey’s future seems bleak,
especially the day he is fired, but everything begins to turn around the
moment he absently sinks down on a bench occupied by wealthy Gloria
Withers. Gloria sees something in him that no one else bothers to notice
and, within moments, a friendship is sparked that will withstand many
trials.
When Barbara makes good her escape and arrives on the
doorstep of her grandmother, Gloria, whom she hasn't seen for years,
Barbara is greeted instead by Grey. It doesn't take long for a different
kind of spark to fly as Barbara takes up residence in the Withers
mansion.
When Grey falls inexorably in love with not only
Barbara, but also her daughter Allie, he vows to do everything he can to
protect them from her husband who is out for revenge.
