Fall in love at Bayside, where sandy beaches, good friends, and true love come together in the sweet small towns of Cape Cod. Bayside Summers is a series of standalone steamy romance novels featuring alpha male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They’re fun, flirty, flawed, deeply emotional, and easy to relate to.In BAYSIDE FANTASIES…Tegan Fine has never had a plan—life, business, or otherwise. … plan—life, business, or otherwise. But she’s always had goals—to laugh daily and to pay it forward as often as she is able, just like her favorite uncle always did. After inheriting her great-uncle’s amphitheater, Tegan makes a risky move to a charming small town on Cape Cod to carry on her uncle’s legacy and hopefully expand the business with her new friend, Harper. Unfortunately, those goals aren’t doing much to help her plan a business strategy for her new endeavor. With Harper counting on her and her uncle’s legacy at stake, she swears off all distractions, determined to succeed. If only she could stop bumping into a certain arrogant, witty, and excruciatingly hot businessman who tweaks her nerves and invades her every thought. Including her late-night fantasies.
Self-professed workaholic Jett Masters never slows down. He lives life with no attachments—except to his clients, to whom he gives his all. A reluctant trip to his hometown has him itching to shake the ghosts of his past and get back to spinning deals and adding to his investments. But when he comes face-to-face with a gorgeous, handsy woman who is quite possibly the snarkiest and most disorganized person he’s ever met, sparks fly, and his sharp mind stumbles. He doesn’t even know her name, but he can’t get her out of his mind.
A chance encounter turns into a wild, sexy night, and their chemistry is off the charts—even if their ideals, and their lives, are worlds apart. Neither Jett nor Tegan is looking for more. Becoming friends with benefits seems like the perfect solution. But when they are trapped together in torrential weather, they work side by side in the aftermath, and every passionate kiss deepens their connection. Secrets are shared, trust is built, and no promises dare be made. As their lives move on, lines begin to blur, hearts get hurt, and their true selves come into focus. Tegan and Jett are left wondering if they make the perfect storm, or if they’ve reached the end of their bayside fantasy.

I loved Teagan so much! She is fun, fearless, and smart. She is also the perfect sassy match to keep Jett on his toes! She gives him a challenge in every way which was exactly what he needed. He has some family history he has spent some time avoiding but she helps calm him and works through it. This book is an adventure and I loved it.
Tegan Fine has inherited her great uncle’s house and ampitheater business. She has a plan and has moved to a small town on Cape Cod to put her plan in place along with her friend, Harper. Tegan believes you should laugh everyday and she’s a BIG believer in “paying it forward” as often as you are able, just like her uncle always did. Unfortunately, those goals aren’t coming to fruition and remain written on a bunch of sticky notes. She swears off all distractions, determined to keep the first show on schedule. But she keeps running into a exceptionally arrogant and hot businessman who wears his Armani suits really well. With just one look from him, it sends shock waves through her already nerve racked body. Then he invades her sleep and becomes her fantasy.
Jett Masters is a workaholic and never slows down to just enjoy life. He lives his life traveling from one place to another, making huge real estate deals and with no attachments. Jett returns to his hometown reluctantly for a friends bachelor party. Coming home makes him uncomfortable because of his past issues with his father which affects his relationship with his brother. But when he keeps bumping into a gorgeous, witty blonde with no organizational skills, sparks fly and work is the last thing on his mind. He can’t get her out of his thoughts and he don’t even know her name…yet.
When the men show up at Harper’s bachelorette party, Jett takes the opportunity to introduce himself to the woman of his dreams. An evening of wild, sexy flirting turns into him spending the night with her and the sex is off the charts good. Neither is looking for a relationship, their lives are going in different directions, but they do have fun together. So, becoming friends with benefits is the perfect solution. Then they are trapped together in hurricane weather, they work together, side by side cleaning up it’s destruction. With every touch, kiss and alluring looks, the connection grows stronger. Each time they are together, they share their hopes and dreams and even some secrets. The trust continues to build but no promises are made. Life moves forward, the lines are becoming easier to cross, feelings get hurt, and their hearts are exposed. With Tegan by his side, Jetts true self comes out and they realize that reality is much better than fantasy!
I enjoyed going back to Bayside & catching up with everyone there. This time Jett Masters meets his match with Tegan Fine. Tegan returned to Bayside after receiving an inheritance from her late uncle. Tegan & her friend Harper plan to work together to produce plays at the theater. Tegan was such an optimist, looking for joy everywhere she went. Jett was the opposite, because of family issues in the past he was all about work & didn’t really feel joy or happiness at all. I loved how Tegan didn’t try to change Jett but kept him interested with her bubbly personality, helping him see that he truly could have a relationship with his family.
Melissa Foster has outdone herself with Bayside Fantasies because this book is all consuming fire and love and I couldn’t get enough of Teagan and Jett. From the first time these two lock eyes, you know a sexy storm is brewing, but what you won’t be prepared for is the amazing, but difficult breathtaking journey this couple with go on together. I stayed up all night reading and you will too! Teagan radiates sunshine and makes everyone around her happier and I adore that about her. Jett is such a complicated, workaholic who battles his own demons, but Teagan brings him back to light. This couple truly completes each other. You need to read this book for the post-it-notes, the car, the treehouse, the baseball cards and the adventure alone. Bayside Fantasies may have just taken over as my favorite Melissa Foster book and I can’t wait to read it again!!!
Tracey, Life Reads With Friends
First off I want to say this story did drag just a bit making it a little difficult to read, but that being said this is still a solid book. I loved Jett. I think he is a great character with just the right mix of cocky, sweet, sexy, and alpha. He is definitely swoon worthy. His counterpart, Teagan, got on my nerves a bit. She was fiercely independent, which is great and her love for her friends and family was apparent that being said, and maybe this is just me, she came off sort of judgmental when it came to Jett, which turned me off of her just a bit not enough to ruin the character for me but it was there. This is a friends with benefits story that quickly becomes a soulmate, love of their lives type of deal. Jett and Teagan are well matched if only they would stop being afraid of relationships. There are some incredibly steamy scenes in this book that will set you on fire so be aware a cold shower may become necessary at times. It all ends with a great HEA and and to the FWB. This is part of an ongoing series but you don’t necessarily need to have read them to read this book although it is nice to know all the characters that pop up. I know Daphne is getting a story soon and I am excited for that!
*I did receive a free advanced copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review*
Coming back to take over her uncle’s estate, Tegan finds herself starting over. A brief encounter at the local cafe brings her in direct line with Jett. Although there is an instant spark, neither one is ready for an actual relationship. When friends with benefits turns into a long distance romance will either one be able to keep it all together? And what happens when Jett figures out that Tegan makes him the better person? Will an instant spark turn into a HEA. With characters who the reader instantly falls in love with and a storyline they will not want to put down this was another great read in a fantastic series.
ARC received from author for an honest review
It was fun to be back bayside, this time with Tegan and Jett.
It is like catching up with family when I read a Melissa Foster book. I have been reading them for a few years now, and they have become like extended family to me.
However, with all the cross overs with people from different series, I cannot be the only one who needs a chart on the wall to remember who is whom?
Whilst I adore Jett and Tegan, I did feel that, to me, their story dragged. It felt sooo slow to me, and I did find myself skim reading, particularly in the second half. There was a lot of back and forward with trips and things, and their story didn’t feel like it was going anywhere for a long time.
But this could just be me.
I haven’t read all of the Bayside Summers books, however i did like getting a bit more of the people I have met in previous reads.
I know it sounds like I didn’t like this book, but I did. I just wasn’t as drawn into it as other books in the series that I have read.
I love returning to Bayside. As in all of Melissa Foster’s books, it’s like visiting friends. We get to go back in time to attend Harper’s wedding and meet Rick and Desiree’s baby. But the main characters in the story are Jett and Tegan. We’ve met most of Jett’s family previously so this is a bit of a new angle dealing with some of the same family. Tegan has moved to the area recently and is taking on a new business venture. Their paths cross and the chemistry is immediate. They both planned for it to stay simple but their connection was too strong. I loved how they complemented each other and were willing to work together to figure where their relationship was going. The book was both steamy and emotional. The friendships among the characters is wonderful and makes me hope that everyone has at least one friend like these in their lives! I’m already looking forward to the next time we go back to visit! I received an advance copy from the author and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Just when I think I’ve read the best Melissa Foster romance she goes and does it again. Absolutely LOVE Jett and Tegan and how they embrace each other after the journey of learning each other and watching how they fall when they assure each other they aren’t.
5 stars
Tegan inherited her great uncle’s house and business. She believes in laughter and paying it forward. Her uncle owned and ran an amphitheater and she is taking it over. She’s in Bayside to get everything ready. Jett is a businessman and hardly ever comes back to town. He’s in for his friend’s bachelor party and meets Tegan at a cafe. He gets stranded when a storm hits and they spend the night together. She blows him away but neither have time for relationships so they agree to a friends with benefits relationship. But Jett can’t get her out of his head and they meet up again when he returns for their friends wedding. They decide to try out a long distance relationship and they fall deeper for each other. Jett realizes that Tegan chases away his darkness and sees underneath all the layers he hides behind. She makes him want to be a better man and then maybe he can reconcile with his family.
Funny and so hot you’ll need a cold shower. Jett is a man any woman would love to have. He sexy and very romantic. Tegan is full of life, sexy, and down to earth. I loved this story.
