Discover the magic of New York Times bestseller Melissa
Foster's writing, and see why millions of readers have
fallen in love with the fiercely loyal and sassily sexy
characters in the Love in Bloom big-family romance
families.
Welcome to Oak Falls, Virginia, home to horse farms,
midnight rodeos, bookstores, coffee shops, and quaint
restaurants where you’re greeted like family and treated
like treasured guests. Buckle up for a wild ride. Like any
Southern girls worth their salt, the sweet-talking, sharp-
tongued Montgomery sisters can take men to their knees with
one seductive glance or a single sugarcoated sentence.
In 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…
The Bradens & Montgomerys are part of Melissa's Love in
Bloom big-family romance collection featuring alpha male
heroes and sexy, empowered women. They're flawed, funny,
passionate, and relatable to readers who enjoy contemporary
romance and women's fiction.. 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.
PLEASE NOTE: Future books in the original Montgomery series
are crossing over to the Bradens at Pleasant Hill, and for
this reason I have combined the series into THE BRADENS &
MONTGOMERYS (Pleasant Hill - Oak Falls).
