Review:

Stroke of Love is book #11 in the Love in Bloom series and is book #2 in The Remingtons series but can be read as a standalone.

Another great book by Melissa.

Sage Remington knows something is missing in his life. He just doesn’t know what it is. Seeking an escape from New York City and the perpetual feeling of being lost, he joins a group providing humanitarian aid to a remote, impoverished village in Belize. Sage stumbles upon the very thing to give him hope – love.

Kate Parello knows better than to put any faith in the volunteers that show up at the village several times a year. They are rich, spoiled and never interested in the charitable work they’ve signed up to do. A few photo ops with a smiling kid, holding a paint brush just long enough for the flash to go off and pretending they care is about all she will get out of them. So when a rich and famous artist steps off the bus she knows better than to get involved with him. Only he is different than the rest, no matter what she tells herself and when he puts his heart into bettering the lives of the villagers, he opens a piece of Kate’s heart as well.

The chemistry between them is undeniable. The romance develops quickly as their time together in Belize is rather short but it somehow seems perfectly paced and not so much instant infatuation as something believable and real.

Review:

Game of Love is book #10 in the Love in Bloom series and is book #1 in the Remingtons series but can be read as a standalone.

Ellie Parker has grown up in the ‘system’ since she was five years old. Being bounced around from foster home and guarding herself from difficult memories has conditioned her to tread carefully with relationships and know when to run. However Dex Remington has been her friend since they were teens and together they have depended on each other when life delivered some tough blows. She finds herself back in New York looking for a teaching job.

Dex Remington is a computer programmer and a game developer. He has always guarded his heart as if he was wearing a protective shield. Ever since he was a teenager he has had feelings for Ellie. He could have any woman he desires but he only wants the one that got away, a friend from childhood who came back into his life briefly four years earlier. He feels like she’s the only person who ever truly understood him or saw him for himself and not the millionaire he’s become.

The last time they saw each other was four years ago when Dex declared his love to her and she ran away as fast as the wind could take her. Even now Dex can’t deny how much he loves Ellie but he struggles to trust her ability to stay when life unsettles her.

Dex and Ellie face their demons and touch each other’s hearts. We are introduced to the Remington family Dex’s twin sister Siena and brothers Sage, Kurt, Jack and Rush.
