In SEA OF LOVE…
Lacy Snow wasn’t looking for love when she met strikingly handsome and seductive Dane Braden. But how could she ignore the six-foot-three darkly handsome god who tagged and researched sharks for a living–and made every nerve in her body tangle into an overly sensitive knot? Even her fear of sharks could not … tangle into an overly sensitive knot? Even her fear of sharks could not suppress their intense attraction.
As founder of the Brave Foundation, Dane Braden travels from port to port, educating and advocating on behalf of the mammals he adores–and spends his nights finding solace in the arms of strangers. The last thing Dane was looking for when he met Lacy Snow was a relationship, and the last thing he expected was to fall in love.
Fifteen months–and hundreds of flirty emails, steamy phone calls, and sensual video chats–later, they reunite and take passion to a whole new level. But as Lacy’s phobia meets Dane’s past love life, their steamy romance is upended, and when tragedy strikes, Dane and Lacy are forced to face their deepest fears head-on as they try to navigate their own sea of love.

The Narration:
Once again B.J. Harrison has done a great job of bring Melissa’s book to life with this production,
Sea of Love: Love in Bloom, Book Seven was a great read by Melissa Foster. Lacy met Dane Braden at a time when she wasn’t looking for love. Dane is the founder of the Brave Foundation, which travels from port to port to educate and advocate for animals. Dane also wasn’t looking for love or a relationship. They spent fifteen months getting to know eachother through emails, phone calls and video chats. They are both facing their fears head on but they don’t know how it will turn out together. I loved reading Lacy and Dane’s story and can’t wait to read more by Melissa Foster. I loved listening to B.J. Harrison’s narration of the characters.
Sea of Love is a captivating and emotional romance. Dane and Lacy finally meet in person again after over a year of getting to know each other thru flirty and sensual texts and calls. Who knew the extended foreplay could lead to not only such explosive passion but deep feelings as well. Dane and Lacy are complete opposites and never expected to fall in love. But how can they make a relationship work when Lacy is deathly afraid of sharks and Dane lives a dangerous life traveling and advocating for them? Dane and Lacy were fun to get to know and I connected and cared for them quickly. I loved how their relationship developed and grew, how they had so much fun together, and had great chemistry.
B.J. Harrison continues to narrate this heartfelt, and delightful series. His voice is soothing as he allows you to get swept away with all the fun, excitement and passion Foster creates in her stories and brings them to life.
I liked this one. This wasn’t my favorite book by this author but it was an entertaining listen all the same. This book features Dane, one of the Braden siblings, and Lacy, one of the three Snow sisters. I was looking forward to watching them come together in this book. This story is a stand-alone but fans of the series will enjoy checking in with characters from previous stories.
I am learning that I can be quite the mood reader, especially lately. After a couple of hours of listening to this book, I set it aside to listen to a murder mystery since I just didn’t seem to be feeling this one. I came back to it a few days later and it worked much better for me. I tend to think of these romances as sweeter stories, even though there is a fair amount of heat. I like this kind of story but I have to be in the mood for it.
Dane and Lacy have been talking to each other on the phone and online for the past 15 months. They are more than ready to be together when they finally get the chance to see each other again. There is one big obstacle to any possible relationship. Dan spends his days researching sharks while Lacy is terrified of sharks after surviving an attack as a child. I have to say that this obstacle didn’t make a lot of sense to me. I have been married for over 20 years and have never felt the need to go with my husband to work. I just felt like he could go work with sharks while she goes to her job and the problem would disappear. I just kind of decided to go with it anyway. I did like Dane and Lacy. They had fantastic chemistry with each other and they were both incredibly kind. They both wanted to figure out how to make things work with each other deep down. It was fun watching their relationship grow over the course of the story.
B.J. Harrison once again did a great job with the narration of this story. He does a great job with both the male and female voices and he always speaks very clearly. He has a very pleasant voice and I think that he adds a lot of emotion to the story which added to my overall enjoyment.
I would recommend this book to fans of contemporary romance. I found this to be a nice easy listen and look forward to reading more of this author’s work in the future.
I received a copy of this audiobook from the author/publicist.
Sea of Love
Love in Bloom, Book 7
By: Melissa Foster
Narrated by: B.J. Harrison
Sea of Love is such a great love story! We get Lacy’s story, which I have been looking forward to since we met her at the Snow Sisters wedding! She had met Dane there and now they have been having a virtual relationship of sorts for months. Finally when they get together, the sparks ignite, but it that enough to hold them together? After all, Lacy hates sharks, Has a real fear for a good reason, but Dane’s work is with sharks. Can they be together and have this dichotomy? When I first started listening to this, I wanted to nudge Lacy. Get over yourself and be the person Dane needs. But then I really began to understand her and began to think a little about it. She is quite the woman, facing her fears. Dane is a Braden, so we know he is sweet and loving. But he does hold back a bit, and we need to know why. Melissa Foster once again has caught my attention and kept me engaged for another Braden love story. She is a master at weaving original themes, and adding in a realistic story line that is current and real. We get this with Rob and his wife, and it’s a look at real love, consequences and adjustments. I love her books and look forward to her next adventure with this family!
BJ Harrison is the voice of the Braden boys and I love him. Each book a different voice for the main character and as we get to see others we know, he consistency keeps the voice from previous books. It’s a fun, refreshing listen and I know when I start, I am in for a treat.

Just ok. A bit slow and Lacey was naive and annoying. I love this series but this one didn’t hold my interest.
Love Dane and Lacy’s sexy story! – Audiobook Review

Sparks fly when they finally meet again at Max and Treat’s wedding. Emotions go back and forth as you follow their story.

Loved this series
This is the fourth book in The Bradens Series. This Series is also part of the Love in Bloom Series. Lacy and Dane’s story is beautiful. They share a strong chemistry. This story is about fears. Dane is a protector of sharks, and Lacy is afraid of them. How to conciliate that? This is another great story in the Series. BJ Harrison did a great narration. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.
This author has a talent for creating characters & storylines that grab her readers’ hearts from the beginning & don’t let go. They become emotionally invested in the story & feel the same emotions the characters are going through. The compulsion to read the book from cover to cover is hard to resist since there isn’t a good stopping point until the end.
Dane & Lacy have been engaging in a long distance friendship ever sense Dane’s brother’s wedding. As their friendship has grown, their feelings have gotten stronger. Before they can find their happy ever after, they have a lot of details to resolve. After a childhood accident, Lacy is terrified of sharks. This wouldn’t be a big deal except Dane’s job is locating & tagging sharks. Another issue is Dane’s fear of being left behind. Since his mother died, Dane was careful not to get too involved. When his friend & coworker was injured, Dane pushed Lacy away. Will they figure out how to control their fears or will they let the feelings control them?
Love Melissa Foster books !! Great story !
