Tempted by Love (The Steeles at Silver Island #1) by Melissa Foster ~ Book Review with Giveaway

 




NEW RELEASE........
Enjoy heart-meltingly beautiful and toe-curlingly sexy romance in Tempted by Love, an emotionally riveting story about a man who has lost it all and carries a torturous secret, a divorced single mother who has everything to lose, and the little girl who helps them heal. Fall in love on the sandy shores of Silver Island, home to coffee shops, boat races, midnight rendezvous, and the sexy, sharp-witted Steeles.

In TEMPTED BY LOVE… 
Years ago, bestselling author Jack “Jock” Steele lost his girlfriend and baby in a horrific accident that drove a wedge between Jock and his family, keeping him from sharing a devastating secret. An aging philanthropist saved him from the brink of despair, and for a decade Jock cared for his ailing friend who became his family. Now his friend has passed away and left him a fortune—on the condition that he publishes another book. Jock is floundering, unsure how to rebuild the life he’d walked away from, much less find his muse, have another relationship with a woman, or even think about having a family of his own. But he can’t get his sweet, sexy new friend, single-mother Daphne Zablonski out of his head, and her adorable toddler must know something he doesn’t, because she wraps her tiny fingers around his heart and won’t let go.

Daphne has been through the wringer with her ex-husband and doesn’t believe true love is in the cards for her. Friends she can handle, but letting a man see her mom bod naked? Especially someone as strikingly handsome and unbelievably sexy as Jock? No, thank you. Besides, she has a toddler to chase after and enough fictional boyfriends to fill her lonely nights. If only her book boyfriends could make her body tingle the way one look from her mysterious neighbor does.

As Jock and Daphne’s friendship turns to something too tempting to deny, their lives take an unexpected turn. Can a man who has lost everything find redemption with a woman who has everything to lose? And then there’s that secret…

My True Love (The Steeles at Silver Island, Book 2)

Can a man who resents the hand he’s been dealt and a woman who spends her days grateful for every little thing find true love in each other’s arms—or are their differences stronger than both of them?
Find out in this funny, sexy, heartfelt romance, and fall in love with Grant and Jules on the sandy shores of Silver Island, home to coffee shops, boat races, and midnight rendezvous. 


Even war heroes need a little help sometimes... 
After spending years fighting for his country and too damn long learning to navigate life with a prosthetic leg, Grant Silver returns to Silver Island to figure out a future he couldn’t fathom without fatigues and a gun in his hand. He’d almost forgotten how a man could suffocate from the warmth and caring community in which he’d grown up, and if that weren’t bad enough, his buddies’ beautiful and far-too-chipper younger sister won’t stop flitting into his life, trying to sprinkle happy dust everywhere she goes. 

As a cancer survivor, Jules Steele knows better than to count on seeing tomorrow. She doesn't take a single moment for granted, and she isn’t about to let a man who used to be charming and full of life waste the future he’s been blessed with. She's determined to get through to him, even if it takes a few steamy kisses...

I have volunteered to share my review and all the opinions are 100% my own.


Tears upon tears, my eyes were like a broken faucet I cried so much. Heartbreakingly beautiful story!

I have been waiting for Daphne's story for a while now, I have watched all of her friends find their HEA's while she raises her daughter without the father anywhere to be seen and always wondered what her story was and when she would finally get her turn at happiness, well, thankfully her time has come.

Jock has been around but not as long as Daphne, while I knew a bit about him I had no idea of the pain he had suffered years ago and it totally broke my heart. It was if the stars had aligned or maybe fate played a part in Daphne and Jock meeting when they did because it was just about perfect timing.

Hadley is Daphne's beautiful little girl that steals everyone's heart and she is the balm to a broken soul that was so desperately needed.

If you have been following my reviews you know I highly recommend Melissa Foster's books because she is truly a gifted writer. This book will have you crying, laughing, cringing, swooning, and falling in love right along with Daphne and Jock, you will feel so many different emotions you will believe you are a part of the story yourself. 

Happy Reading!!!
