BOXED SET CONTAINS: The first three (3) full length novels from the Seaside Summers series. This flirty, fun series features fiercely loyal heroes and sexy, empowered women. SEASIDE DREAMS (Book 1) SEASIDE HEARTS (Book 2) SEASIDE SUNSETS (Book 3) IN SEASIDE DREAMS...  Bella Abbascia has returned to Seaside Cottages in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, as she does every summer. Only this year, Bella has more on her mind than sunbathing and skinny-dipping with her girlfriends. She's quit her job, put her house on the market, and sworn off relationships while she builds a new life in her favorite place on earth. That is, until good-time Bella's prank takes a bad turn and a sinfully sexy police officer appears on the scene.    Single father and police officer Caden Grant left Boston with his fourteen-year-old son, Evan, after his partner was killed in the line of duty. He hopes to find a safer life in the small resort town of Wellfleet, and when he meets Bella during a night patrol shift, he realizes he's found the one thing he'd never allowed himself to hope for--or even realized he was missing.  After fourteen years of focusing solely on his son, Caden cannot resist the intense attraction he feels toward beautiful Bella, and Bella's powerless to fight the heat of their budding romance. But starting over proves more difficult than either of them imagined, and when Evan gets mixed up with the wrong kids, Caden's loyalty is put to the test. Will he give up everything to protect his son--even Bella? *** IN SEASIDE HEARTS...  Jenna Ward is vivacious, spontaneous, and confident--except when she's around the man who stole her heart years earlier, strikingly handsome, quiet, and reliable Pete Lacroux. After years of trying to get his attention and overwhelmed from dealing with her mother's new cougar lifestyle, Jenna's giving up on Peter--and is ready to explore other men.  As the eldest of five siblings, with an alcoholic father to care for, boat craftsman Pete Lacroux always does the right thing and has no time for a real relationship. He's looking forward to seeing his friend Jenna, a welcome distraction who's so damn sexy and so painfully shy that she equally entertains and confuses him.  When Jenna picks up a hard-bodied construction worker, jealousy ignites Pete's true feelings, and he's powerless to ignore the desires for Jenna he never realized he had. But Pete's not the quiet guy he appears to be, and his life is anything but conducive to a relationship. Can Jenna handle the real Pete Lacroux--the sexiest, most passionate alpha male she's ever seen--or will she crack under pressure? And can Pete reclaim the life he once had without tearing apart his family?   *** IN SEASIDE SUNSETS...  Jessica Ayers has lived a sheltered life with little more than cello lessons and practices taking up her day. Now a member of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, she escapes the prim and proper symphony to vacation in the Seaside community in Wellfleet, Massachusetts, and determine if she is living life to the fullest or missing it altogether.  For the first time since developing the second largest search engine in the world, billionaire Jamie Reed is taking the summer off. He plans to work from the Cape and spend time with his elderly grandmother--and falling in love is not in his plans.  From the moment Jamie and Jessica meet, the attraction is white-hot. Once-overly-focused Jamie can think of little else than sensual, smart, and alluring Jessica, and Jessica discovers a side of herself she never knew existed. But when Jamie's business encounters trouble and his attorney and best friend intervenes, he proves that the brown-haired beauty is too distracting for Jamie. To make matters worse, it appears that Jessica might not be who she says she is, turning Jamie's life--and his heart--upside down. In a world where personal information is always one click away, Jamie must decide if he should trust his heart or watch the woman he loves walk away. ** SEASIDE SUMMERS is part of the LOVE IN BLOOM series by New York Times & USA Today bestselling and award-winning author Melissa Foster.

"Sexy and heart-wrenchingly powerful, TEMPT ME LIKE THIS will make you cheer, laugh and cry." ~ 5 stars As one of the biggest rock stars in the business, Drew Morrison can have anything—and anyone—he wants. Only Ashley Emmit, who has joined his tour to work on a college research project, is completely off-limits. Drew promised her father that, once the tour was over, he would send her home pure and untouched by the rock ’n’ roll world. But he has never been so tempted by anyone in his entire life. How is he going to make it through this tour without giving in to the urge to drag her into his arms and kiss her breathless?  Ashley has always lived by the rules. But from the moment she meets Drew, none of those rules make sense anymore. Not only does Drew’s music affect her deeply...but she’s never wanted to kiss anyone so badly. Not that a magnetic star like Drew would ever feel the same way about a brainiac like her, of course. And even if he did, she knows from painful experience that two people as different as they are simply don’t belong together.  But when the attraction between Drew and Ashley burns hotter every moment they’re together on the tour bus—and they begin to share their deeply hidden and emotional secrets—will either of them be able to resist temptation? Or could giving in to their feelings lead them straight toward a love they never saw coming...  "Ashley and Drew are swoon worthy in TEMPT ME LIKE THIS! Bella Andre never disappoints." ~ 5 stars "Insightful and intense, passionate and dramatic!

Vengeance is best served piping hot. Prodigal Son. Black Sheep. Playboy Prince.  I've been called lots of things. Merciful is not one of them. It doesn’t matter what you call me, as long as I get what I want… What I crave. And it’s not the crown. She is the Princess I didn’t see coming. The one I didn’t plan for.  Until her, women came easy. Until her, I wasn't sure I had a heart. Now that I know, I'll give up anything to have her... Well…almost anything.

The army taught me to kill.Every flex of hard earned muscle was for my country. I didn't need shit else except my rifle, my brothers, and the enemy. I was born to fight.Then the military cut me loose.Civilian life. Two words dirtier than the bloodshed downrange. I didn't want my freedom.I wanted my goddamn purpose back. I wanted my government issued rifle in my hands. I wanted to taste the grit of foreign soil. I wanted to fight until I drew my last breath...Then she crossed in front of my path—carrying our child.

If knowing the truth could leave you more broken than believing the lies, would you still want to know it?We've been friends out entire lives, Lilly and me.But I have not always being truthful.There are lies we tell ourselves so we can hold on to hope.And lies we tell those we love to save them the pain.There are truths that are too big and too final.And truths that give us a reason to keep going.This is where I live. Between the lies and the truths.Between hope and finality.This is the place I've created for us.For Lilly and me.A place without expiration dates.A place where I can be me and where the promise of tomorrow exists, even if it's a lie I tell myself.Our time is limited, so I'll make the most of it and hope she'll forgive me for the lies I told us both.

It’s the last day of school, and everyone is excited for the big summer leading up to our senior year. I was too…until my heart was ripped out of my chest. As if getting dumped wasn’t bad enough, I’m forced to endure the humiliation of witnessing my ex-boyfriend flaunt his new girl—who also happens to be my now ex-best friend—all over town. Double whammy. Now I’m the pathetic ex-girlfriend left gutted, heartbroken, and nose deep in a bucket of ice cream. I’m doomed to spend the summer sulking over a guy who thought I was predictable and bad in bed. So, when I get an offer guaranteeing me some well-deserved payback, of course I’m going to take it. Besides, the plan is simple. Pretend like I’m dating Ryder, the town’s popular bad boy, and make my ex wallow in a pit of jealousy and regret. It’s perfect. I mean…what could possibly go wrong?
