About this ebook

Cowboy Cal Hayden has loved Rachel Gray practically since the first time he set eyes on her. But Cal’s a careful, responsible man who knows better than to start a relationship before he can give it his all. He bided his time while caring for his family through his father’s terminal illness. Now his father is gone and his mother is settled, but has Cal waited too long to make his move?

 

Find out more about these friends of the Bradens in Love at Last, and catch up with many of your favorite Love in Bloom characters, including much-anticipated news about babies for the Bradens in Trusty, Colorado!

 

If this is your first introduction to the Bradens, please note that this is a flirt not a full-length novel. Like all Love in Bloom books, flirts are written to stand alone, so jump right in and enjoy the fun, sexy, and emotional ride.

 

What is a Flirt?

The Love in Bloom big-family romance world has become so widely enjoyed, I have been asked by thousands of readers to write the stories of our beloved side characters. While I couldn’t possibly fit in writing full-length novels for each of them while maintaining my normal publication schedule, I’ve created flirts. Flirts cover twenty-four to forty-eight hours of two side characters’ lives on their path to their happily ever after, while also updating readers about their favorite main characters. Flirts vary in length and heat levels. I hope you love these quick, fun, sexy stories as much as I enjoy writing them.

 

If this is your first Love in Bloom story, then you have a whole series of loyal, sexy, and wickedly naughty heroes and smart, sassy heroines to catch up with. The characters from each family series within the Love in Bloom world cross into other family series and make appearances in future books so you never miss an engagement, wedding, or birth.

Ratings and reviews

This was a Braden Flirt. It gives you a taste of the series and to catch up with characters. It's a nice quick that can be read in one sitting. Rachel and Cal were super adorable, but with heat! They have so much chemistry that burns off the pages. It fun to catch up with previous characters and seeing them enjoying their HEAs. If you're a fan of the series like me then you definitely want to give this one a read because it's a nice little addition to whet your appetite.

This is a very quick read.. if you are looking for fast hot romance, this is the novella for you. Cal and Rachel have a deep connection. Their romance comes fast but is understandable because of their friendship. I enjoyed revisiting wonderful Trusty, Colorado

Cute, fun, sexy read. It’s a short read but worth it. You get hooked from page one. Cal is a total flirt but with Rachel it’s not just flirting. It’s a long-awaited love. Cal has been in love with Rachel for a long time but didn’t feel it was the right time to start anything while still dealing with family stuff. Once he’s done and finally on the right track again he plans on waiting no longer, he must have her now. Rachel wants Cal. Cal flirts with her every time they see each other but she isn’t sure if it’s natural flirting he does with all the woman or if he is truly interested in her. It only takes one kiss to feel what Cal is feeling for her. You will fall for this couple just like with every other Love in Bloom book.
