Synopsis:
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.
My Thoughts:
Another fantastic read by Melissa Foster! Reading this story will make your heart leap with joy and have you believing that there is true love waiting just for you even if you are not looking for it. What could be better than falling in love with not one but two guys? Who wouldn’t be captured by the cutest little boy and his amazing dad?
I thought Tru Blue was one of my favorite reads but this one is right up there with it. This book captured my heart from the beginning to the end. It is a feel good story that shows you that love is right around the door if you open your mind and heart for it.
The cute little boy, who Tempest called “Flip”, will melt your heart. He idolizes his dad and looks up to him for everything. You will smile and just want to hug the little cutie. I thought the counting game was such a cute touch.
Nash was not your typical dad. He was very cautious and protective of his son. This added to the allure of the story and created a man that any woman would want. He took his responsibility seriously and creates a home for his son even when putting his own needs and passion on the back burner.
Tempest was so easy to relate and connect with. She had to come out of her shell and take charge of what she wanted. She has a huge heart to help out others even when it drains her emotionally. She is the type of person that anyone would be proud of and want as a friend. She gives everything she has to see to the well-being of others.
There were so many emotions that came through this story. A book that can draw so many emotions, keep you engaged from beginning to end, and is well written is a fantastic book in my opinion. Ms. Foster does a great job of spinning a story and grabbing your attention the whole way through. I recommend Melissa Foster’s books to anyone that is looking for a romance that will pull at your emotions and leave you wanting to read more.
