About this ebook

Yoga teacher Emery Andrews has got her best friend and roommate Dean Masters’ heart all tied up in knots. Bayside Summers is a series of standalone steamy romance novels that may also be enjoyed as part of the larger Love in Bloom big-family romance collection.

 

In USA Today bestseller 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.

Ratings and reviews

Melissa Foster sure has a way of creating a story that just pulls you in. And she accomplished that with Bayside Passions. I was able to listen to the audiobook version and I love how convenient it is. B.J. Harrison is the narrator and as always, he does an amazing job. In this story we get to meet Dean Masters and Emery Andrew. Emery loves teaching yoga and when a position opens up which brings her to where her best friend lives, she jumps at the chance. Emery previously met Dean Masters at her best friends wedding and they have been chatting up a storm ever since. Now with the move, that also brings her closer to Dean. Dean would really love the chance to pursue their relationship to something deeply but Emery has put Dean in the friend category. When the situation arises that Dean offers to let Emery stay with him, now it up to Dean to gently sway her to realize they belong together. Their interactions and flirty vibes being their attraction to a head and its intense.

5 Star Review of Bayside Passions(Bayside Summers #2) by Melissa Foster Having already read several books by Melissa Foster I was ready to dive in to a new series. I particularly enjoy friends to lovers stories and this one did not disappoint. This is the story of Emery Andrews and Dean Masters and if I am being truthful, I would love a man like Dean in my life; he ticked so many boxes and I was drawn to him from the start, totally swoon worthy. When Emery decides to take the plunge and move to Cape Cod to work at her friend Desiree’s resort, she knows that she will be surrounded by good friends. What she doesn’t know is that Dean is hoping that he can convince her that he is the man for her. In fact Emery is totally blind to what everyone else can see where Dean is concerned. Bayside Passions is a story of friendships,humour,romance and overall is a heart warming book that will make you smile, feel good and is one I highly recommend. Ms. Foster wove a tale that kept me captivated from the first page until the last. I will most certainly be keeping my eye out for the next book in the series as I anxiously wait to find out who is next in the series.

Back at my favorite book setting, Cape Cod. This time Melissa Foster takes her readers to Bayside and we get to catch up with the Bayside crew. Dean and Emery deserve to have their story told and I am so excited about it. These two met last summer and have been keeping in touch through FaceTime, text, and phone calls. They have been flirting, sexting, and sharing their lives for so long it seems that they have been together forever. I laughed often while reading Bayside Passions. Between Violets craziness and Emery’s uncensored reactions I chuckled, giggled, and laughed out loud many times. There were times I cringed at these same ladies and how unrestricted they were at times. But I loved every word of it. I also loved how the rest of the Bayside Crew accepted them as they were. There was never judgment just 100% acceptance. Together Dean and Emery are opposites. Dean is settled, living his life, and just doing his thing. Enter Emery. She blows his world apart. Leaves her things all over his house, enters his every thought, and changes his life for the better. The best thing is Dean also changes Emery’s life for the better. He brings in some form of order, accepts her for all her quirks, and shows her what true love really is. I was so happy to be back with these characters. It was wonderful to get to know Dean and Emery better and catch up with the other Bayside characters. I cannot wait for more from this wonderful location and amazing characters. **CONTENT WARNING: Due to mature content, recommended for readers aged 18+**
