NEW RELEASE…

Discover the magic of the Bradens, and fall in love with Addison Cole’s rich and romantic storytelling. Addison Cole is the sweet-romance pen name of New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. Addison Cole novels are the sweet editions of Melissa’s steamy romance Love in Bloom series, and are written to stand alone, or to be enjoyed as part of the larger Sweet with Heat series.

Brianna Heart has a six-year old daughter and a twelve-year plan to keep her life as simple as possible until Layla turns eighteen. That means swearing off relationships and the drama that goes along with them, working two jobs, and being the best mother she can be.

The last thing Capital Series Grand Prix racer Hugh Braden wants after dating media-hungry leggy models and money-hungry fan girls is a blind date. But how could he turn down a favor to one of his best friends? Hugh expected the date to go poorly, but he didn’t expect to be intensely attracted to the beautiful brown-eyed bartender who completely blows him off—and steals his every thought thereafter.

When Brianna’s perfectly orchestrated life turns upside down, Hugh is there to help, softening the turmoil, and maybe even rescuing her heart from the lonely place where it has been hiding. Can a man who doesn’t believe in fate and a woman who doesn’t believe in true love find happiness in each other’s arms forever?

And Then There Was Us is a Sweet with Heat novel and conveys all of the passion you’d expect to find between two people in love without any graphic scenes or harsh language. If you’re looking for a more explicit romance, pick up the steamy Love in Bloom edition, Hearts at Play, written by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. Addison Cole is Melissa’s sweet-romance pen name.

My Review –

You know that saying your parents and probably you always say about if you lost something or need to find something stop looking for it? Well the same goes for love, it’s always the ones that don’t go looking for it, almost not wanting to look for it are the ones that find it, right infront of them. It still doesn’t make love easy by a long shot but the truth seems to hold for love striking when one least expects it.

Brianna Heart is a single mother, life for her is carefully laid out and planned for the next several years. While this plan involves two jobs, no time for relationships and little time for herself, she is determined to make it all work. Yet everything seems to change when she meets Huge Braden. Everything was going fine until Huge. There was no denying the instant connection she felt with Huge, but he wasn’t part of her plan, and Brianna wasn’t so sure she should even entertain the question if he could be. Brianna finds herself questioning everything and just when things had all seemed perfect, things began to crumble around her.

Huge had everything he ever wanted at his fingertips, usually always got what he want as well even beautiful women, but that was the problem. While he seemed to have everything, there was a major thing missing in his life. True Connection. Tired of the same old same old Huge is wondering if he’d been looking in all the wrong places, and seemingly ends up finding it right before his eyes in the last place he thought he’d find it, behind a bar, and her name was Brianna. An instant connection he hasn’t ever felt before has taken him into overdrive and he’s not so sure what to do with it. The one thing he does know though is he can’t keep ignoring it. Whether fate is real or not, Huge knows he doesn’t want to step away from Brianna, the only problem is , he’s not so sure Brianna is thinking the same.

Will Brianna be able to step out of her carefully laid plans long enough to see Huge for the man he really is? Or will she shut the door on any chance of love? You will have to pick up a copy of And Then There Was Us to find out!

This was a very cute and heartwarming story, Addison Cole always does an amazing job of bringing two people together. Just when you think they don’t really fit- they do! It was nice to see Brianna and Huge grow not just individually but together and they end up realizing that everything really does happen for a reason, even if you weren’t looking for it, or ready. Love is funny that way .

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.

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.

Josh Braden has models at his beck and call, a staff that never says never, and an elegant clothing line for the holiday season. When he hires Riley Banks, he expects her to learn the business from the ground up. But the girl next door turns out to be much more than he remembered.

When Josh and Riley’s friendship heats up, every steamy kiss, and every passionate caress stirs a love they cannot deny. But when Riley designs a wedding gown that would cause even the most jaded fashion editors to swoon, Riley’s mentor accuses her of stealing the design.

Facing indisputable proof and the mistrust of her lover, Riley is not sure she can take the heat of life in the fast lane of the fashion industry–and Josh is forced to choose between the woman he loves and the career he adores.

But how could she ignore the six-foot-three darkly handsome god who tagged and researched sharks for a living—and made every nerve in her body tangle into an overly sensitive knot? Even her fear of sharks could not suppress their intense attraction.

As founder of the Brave Foundation, Dane Braden travels from port to port, educating and advocating on behalf of the mammals he adores—and spends his nights finding solace in the arms of strangers. The last thing Dane was looking for when he met Lacy Snow was a relationship, and the last thing he expected was to fall in love.

More than a year—and hundreds of flirty texts, steamy phone calls, and sensual video chats—later, they reunite and take passion to a whole new level. But as Lacy’s phobia meets Dane’s past love life, their steamy romance is upended, and when tragedy strikes, Dane and Lacy are forced to face their deepest fears head-on as they try to navigate their own sea of love.
