Ratings and reviews

Seaside Serenade by Melissa Foster A Seaside Summer Short Story – Love in Bloom Series #9 Short sweet love story that sees boxer and business owner Brock Garner and Cree Redmond finally get together...after both being attracted but not acting on the attraction for what felt way too long to both of them. Loved the two together. Thank you to the author for the ARC – This is my honest review. 4-5 Stars

This is a great story. Brock and Cree are a cute couple that have both been fighting the attraction for each other. Brock thought Cree was involved with her good friend Justin since he always drove her to work. So as far as Brock was concerned, Cree was off limits. Cree has been flirting with Brock for a while now, but Brock hasn’t caught on that she is interested in him. How long do you think it takes for Brock to take Cree back to his place once he finds out the truth of Cree’s feelings? I liked this story, and loved Brock and Cree. The reason I only gave it 4 stars instead of five is I was disappointed with the length of the story. The book was going along at a great speed, but then once Brock found out of Cree’s attraction towards him, the book was over in a flash. I was really enjoying the story but then it was over. I seen so much more happening with this couple. Maybe they will be more of Brock and Cree in another book.

I was pleasantly surprised when i learned Brock was getting his it's happy every after. Cree took a job at Brock's guys to get closer to him. However, Brock thought she was with someone else. That made great of limits. Until one night at the bar when he learned the truth. Seaside Serenda is a fantabulous little nugget with a HEA. He will devour it in one sitting.
