In LOVERS AT HEART...
Handsome, wealthy resort owner Treat Braden is used to getting what he wants. When Max Armstrong walked into his life six months earlier, he saw right through the efficient and capable faCade she wore like a shield, to the sweet, sensual woman who lay beneath. She sparked an unfamiliar desire in him for more than a one-night stand, leaving his heart reeling and his blood boiling. But one mistake caused her to turn away, and now, after six months of longing for the one woman he cannot have, he's going home to try to forget her all together.
Max Armstrong has a successful career, a comfortable lifestyle, and she's never needed a man to help her find her way--until Treat Braden caught her attention at a wedding in Nassau, causing a surge of emotions too reminiscent of the painful past she'd spent years trying to forget. Max will do anything to avoid reliving that pain--including forgoing her toe-curling, heart-pounding desire for Treat.
When a chance encounter turns into a night of intense passion, Treat realizes that the mistake he made six months earlier may cause him to lose Max completely. He will do everything within his power to win her heart forever--and Max is forced to face her hurtful past head on for the man she cannot help but love.
**BONUS** Includes the first chapter of Destined to Love, The Bradens, Book Two.

Lovers at Heart is book 4 of the Love in Blooms series and I have to say WOW I am loving the series. Danica and Kayley are not the main characters in Lovers at Heart, this book is all about Max Armstrong and Treat Braden. They met briefly at Danica and Kayley’s wedding, there was sexual tension oozing from them both but one look killed it. Here we are six months or so later, Max still working with Chaz and it is time for the Film Festival. Treat visits his father’s ranch and also visits the festival only to see a woman standing on her car, he looks at her more indepth and realises it is Max his heart pounds, Max spots Treat her heart pounds, they are so attracted to each other it is unreal but Max will not be hurt again and tries to avoid Treat.
They do eventually meet up and their sexual tension is eased but with Max not having been in a relationship since her ex years ago and it was a bad one.Treat never having loved a woman, and demons in both their closets they both set about work through those but not together.
I really wanted to reach into the book and bang Treat and Max’s heads together, it was so obvious they liked/loved each other but they were too scared to do anything about it. When Fate lends a hand I thought yes but that was short lived.
I loved getting to know the Braden family, all Treat’s brothers, his sister and father they all loved each other so much and you could feel it just by reading the book.
None of the brothers or the sister are married or even seeing anyone ‘exclusively’ so I hope to get to know them much better in the future books.
Love, Fear, Drama, Will They? Won’t They? It kept me hooked and I loved reading it, especially the steamy scenes ;)
Absolutely Brilliant series!
