Melissa Foster
Fall in love at Bayside, where sandy beaches, good friends, and true love come together in the sweet small towns of Cape Cod. Bayside Passions is a USA Today Bestseller BAYSIDE SUMMERS is a series of standalone steamy romance novels featuring alpha male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They're fun, flirty, flawed, deeply emotional, always passionate, and easy to relate to. And of course, you'll see cameos from the Seaside Summers characters! In BAYSIDE PASSIONS... When Emery Andrews's best friend, Desiree, moves away, falls in love, and opens an inn all in one summer, she feels her absence like a missing limb. Until she visits over the holidays and meets sinfully hot Dean Masters, who's as easy on the eyes as he is to talk to. After returning home, what starts as a flurry of late-night flirtations quickly turns into a deep connection and unexpected friendship. Now, months later, Desiree offers Emery a job teaching yoga at the inn. Adventurous Emery jumps at the chance and heads for Wellfleet, Massachusetts, to reunite with her BFF and her new close friend, Dean. After months of sharing their lives, and their secrets, over video chats and phone calls, Dean's ready to move things to the next level. The fact that Emery seems oblivious to the sparks between them and has recently put her foot down about dating friends just means he'll have to bide his time. When Emery finds a naked man in her kitchen the first morning she's there, Dean doesn't hesitate to move her into his guest room. Maybe now Emery will see what's right before her eyes--although that guy she's got a date with might be a problem.

Another wonderful addition to Melissa Foster’s Love in Bloom family. For some reason this particular offshoot of the series is not numbered in the way the rest are, but I know it’s the second in this offshoot series. I really loved the first book, Bayside Desires. I enjoyed this one, too. It was just a bit harder for me to get lost in…probably more to do with what’s going on in my real life than the book itself. I’m in middle of some major stuff over here and have barely had time to read. Plus, I’ve fallen into bed early actually too tired to get more than a chapter or two in each night.
Regardless of my own personal issues right now, I couldn’t help but swoon over Dean. Oh my, he is a charmer. He’s definitely an alpha male, but somehow comes across as sweet while he’s being bossy. Plus, he seems to know when to back off to give Emery room to breath and regroup when needed.
Emery is so much fun. I love that she found a way to make a living doing what she loves, even if that isn’t what most people would consider a “tradition” career. She never wavers in knowing she is helping people and doing the right thing for herself and those around her. I love that confidence in her abilities. She has other insecurities, but when it comes to her choice in career she is all confidence and take-charge.
I mentioned earlier that I had trouble getting lost in this story. I truly do think it was more of my personal situation. I love the setting, the people, and the story. I’m so beyond ready for Drake and Serena to get their story and their HEA, so I’m glad they’ll be next in this series. These books always make me wish I had the time and money to book a Cape Cod vacation…or just up and move there!
