She has everything money can buy, but her bodyguard is all she wants—and together they’re exactly what each other needs in this heart-racing romance by Melissa Foster, the New York Times bestselling author of Call Her Mine.Actress Remi Divine is sick of bodyguards, sick of stalkers, and sick of feeling like she is always under a microscope. But this movie star isn’t helpless by any means. She’s … helpless by any means. She’s got a rebellious streak, and she knows how to use it. First order of business: getting rid of the overbearing bodyguards who are sticking to her like glue.
Mason Swift has made protecting others his life, and when Remi ditches his two best men, he takes over and gives it everything he has. Having grown up in the foster-care system, and as a former special operative, he knows all the tricks. Nothing gets by him, especially not gorgeous, sneaky Remi.
He thinks she’s a diva. She thinks he’s arrogant. But when sparks turn to flames and their walls come down, their true hearts are revealed, and their connection is unstoppable. And when tragedy strikes, Remi realizes that being protected isn’t the worst thing in the world—but losing Mason just might be.

This is Love is book two in the Harmony Pointe series, however, it can be read as a complete standalone. Remi and Mason, oh how I loved these two. Remi is an actress with a stalker and Mason is her new hottieguard. Remi was not a fan of her bodyguards, she wanted to just live her life freely. Mason, is frustrated. Remi has gotten away from two of his bodyguards, so he decides to take matters into his own hands.
The chemistry between Mason and Remi was explosive. I loved their relationship from the start. There was some dislike at the start, but the more time they spent together and the more they started to learn about each other things started to shift. I loved Remi, my heart broke for her and all the lose she experienced plus having to deal with a stalker. Mason. Well what isn’t to love about a super alpha bodyguard?
This story was fun, sweet, hot with a little bit of suspense and mystery. A MUST READ! I can’t wait to return to Harmony Pointe for Piper’s story!
Sexy and sweet addition to the Harmony Pointe series. Took me a bit to warm up to Remi but I loved Mason from the start. Enjoyed watching Remi and Mason getting to know and falling for each other. Looking forward to further books in this series-hopefully that includes Aiden’s story.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC received via NetGalley.
I absolutely loved the hottieguard and his diva!
This story starts simple, with actress Remi and bodyguard Mason. But boy, does their instant chemistry complicate things! I really enjoyed the focus on their hearts and histories, more so than their physical attraction, though there’s enough steam in that area, too. Both Remi and Mason have suffered through tragedies and heartbreak, and this story did a brilliant job of revealing all of that as they grew closer to each other, while at the same time there’s a real, significant threat to Remi’s safety from a crazed stalker.
The sheer breadth and depth of this story was all-consuming and stunningly powerful to read. Characters from the author’s other books are included in integral ways, not just as walk-on characters. This has a sweet, small-town feel, and I loved every delightful page. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads, so here is my review.
4.5 stars
Remi Devine has a stalker and her brother has gotten her a bodyguard. Several actually and she has slipped past them. Now he has hired the owner of the security company hoping he can keep up with Remi. While Remi is in Harmony Pointe filming her latest movie, she wants to take some time off as soon as filming is over, spend time with her brother and their friends. When she meets the new bodyguard, she is drawn to him in a way that will test both of their limits.
Mason Swift is the man people go to when they need security or protection. His first impression of Remi was that she was a spoiled princess and just needed to be brought down a notch. But what he found was a woman that needed someone that saw the real person. She is a strong, independent woman. And Mason is trying to not lose his heart to her.
Can they catch the stalker before he gets to Remi? Will they be able to keep their feelings hidden until the time is right to share? What will happen when the job is over for Mason?
Remi and Mason are made for each other in a way that makes you wish everyone finds their soul mates. The way he wants to protect her and let her live her life as free as possible is so heartwarming and loving, it makes you swoon. The story is perfect and has you rooting for a happily ever after ending for them.
I love Melissa Foster and look forward to anything she writes, she is an automatic yes author for me in the review group. So if you haven’t read anything of hers yet, you need to now. You will not be disappointed.

4 Star review of This Is Love (Harmony Pointe #2) by Melissa Foster
Book two in the latest series from Ms.Foster and this is Remi Divine and Mason Swift’s story.
Remi Divine is an actress, with a stalker. Mason Swift is frustrated when she evades the 2 bodyguards he has on her detail and is forced to take over the job himself.
When danger and tragedy strike, Remi and Mason will realize just what is important to them. The chemistry between them sizzles and as the walls they have both built start to fall, hope will bloom.
Can Mason keep Remi safe, or will their blossoming relationship be destroyed before it can truly begin.

What happens when these two cross the line? Read and find out! Grab this one asap!
Melissa Foster is one of my go to author’s. She writes beautiful characters that are likeable but real. This book didn’t disappoint , once I’d started it I was totally engrossed and didn’t want to put it down .
This is the second book in the Harmony point series but can easily be read as a standalone. You get to reconnect with characters from sugar lake series too. Remi is tired of the limits stardom inflicts on her life. She feels confined and having to be mirrored by bodyguards constantly doesn’t help matters.
Her brother Aiden worries for her safety after she receives threatening letters and hires Mason to protect her as a personal plain clothed bodyguard . The two have a scintillating attraction for each other which they both try to fight . Their chemistry sizzles. I loved this book and can’t wait to read the next one.
I received this copy from Net Galley in exchange for an honest review
Love….love….love Remi and Mason. I’ve loved Remi’s spunk since we first met her and she didn’t disappoint in her very own book. Mason is swoon worthy and I love the protector but not too overbearing vibe. They both have such a sad back story and I’m so glad Melissa wasn’t afraid to talk about some hard topics. I love the focus on the foster care system. There is just something so wonderful about Harmony Pointe.
Mason and Remi are a match made in disaster. She’s more than a little naive. He’s more than a bit jaded. There is no chance that they could possibly work. Yet somehow they do. Foster gives romance cliches a makeover as only she can. This is Love battles it’s way under your skin and into your heart, before you even realize what’s hit you. Remi is an actress with a rebellious streak that sometimes had me questioning her common sense. Mason is a warrior that guards his heart as fiercely as he protects his clients. Neither is willing to give when it comes to their point of view, but fate could have other plans when it comes to their hearts. Frustratingly funny, emotionally raw and irresistibly delicious.
A beautiful story about love and loss and filling in all the cracks
Remi is America’s sweetheart – a beautiful, successful actress who seems to have it all right at her fingertips. However, when a stalker shows up, her overly-protective older brother [who raised her after losing their parents in a car crash] decides she needs a bodyguard. Having given all his best guys the slip, Mason, former special-ops guru, takes on the role of her protector.
As they proceed to weave their lives together through protection detail, Remi and Mason form a bond that is special on so many levels. From the tragedy that was her parents’ accidents, to Mason’s life coming up in foster care, these two will tug on your heartstrings and bury their ways into your heart to stay.
There is so much emotion packed into these pages. Expect laughter, tears, smiles, a couple of spoken OMGs, held breaths, and so much more from this story. It’s a must-read for anyone looking for an unputdownable feel-good read.
This book has all the feels…anger, fear, sadness, doubts, chemistry, and Remi and Mason feel the connection but doubt the realness. Can they keep Remi safe from the stalker and find a way to believe in each other…Loved everything about this book and how each of them over came the things in their past…
Remi is an actress and she has a stalker. Her brother has hired bodyguards for her but she keeps ditching them. She is in Harmony Point shooting a movie when she meets her newest bodyguard. Mason owns a security company, was in the military, and never crosses the line while on the job. Remi just wants to be free but she has another bodyguard following her around. Can Mason keep Remi safe and find the love he never knew he needed?
I love Mrs. Foster’s stories. This one has romance, sex, and a little suspense . I had a couple of problems.. First, the dialogue didn’t sound real and after so far in, everything felt rushed. Second, one minute Mason and Remi were fighting their attraction and the next they were in love. I hate giving below 4 stars but I just couldn’t give it anymore.
* Voluntarily read and reviewed this for NetGalley *
This is the second book in Melissa’ Foster’s Harmony Pointe series, which is a spin off of the Sugar Lake series.
As expected with any Melissa Foster book you pick up, you’ll find a fun romance with some humor, not a lot of angst, and great characters that show growth and development through the book. You’ll also get an amazing support cast of characters, some new and some familiar.
Remi is a starlet dealing with a stalker. She has an overprotective older brother that has been lovingly smothering her her entire life – he means well, but he’s had to raise her and he’s just trying to protect her, but he doesn’t realize quiet how sheltered and smothered she feels.
Mason is the bodyguard hired to protect her. When Remi is not trying to rebel against the protection, the two of them really bond and get to know each other. Remi doesn’t want to go after Mason, Mason feels like he can’t because he was hired to protect Remi. As a result, we get a real slow burn, but they get to know each other that much deeper. Their chemistry is simply undeniable.
What can I say? Melissa Foster has done it again. Mason is the perfect leading man! Hot, sexy, brooding, sensitive – he’s the best! You just want to get in trouble so he has to protect you! Remi just wants someone to see under her outside trappings to the real her – a girl missing her parents & wanting to be loved. They are perfect together & bring out each other’s best!
Ms. Foster manages to put a new spin on every story she writes. Her characters are realistic & relatable (besides being drool worthy). Remi manages to engage the readers sympathies when you hear about losing her parents, her brother raising her & the stalker terrorizing her. Nothing can be more moving or so you think until you hear about Mason’s childhood & life as a soldier. Ms. Foster has taken two people broken emotionally & helped them find solace & peace with each other. I really loved that she also makes the children a big part of the side story! I can’t wait for Aiden’s book to come out!
This is Love by Melissa Foster a five-star read that will show you love. This is the second story in the Harmony Pointe series, but you don’t need to have read number one. Remi, Remi, Remi on the surface you have it all, beautiful looks, a great career as a movie star and wealth only few can dream of. By all rights she should be a Diva, shouldn’t she be? That’s what Mason Swift was thinking when he took the job. The thing is looks can be deceiving and just because Remington has all of that, she isn’t a Diva and she isn’t happy. This was a compelling and twisty story, it wasn’t always great, and it got a little long at parts, but overall it just warmed me and surprised me as well. I have enjoyed this author and am sure I will enjoy reading more again.
Remi Divine has lived most of her life in the public eye, but that just comes with being a famous actress. After too many creepy letters from a stalker and one house break-in, her overprotective brother highers a security company to keep her safe. Now she’s 3000 miles away from her stalker in Harmony Pointe, NY, and is fed up with being ushered around like an object and not a person by her bodyguards, she demands one plain-clothed guard. Mason Swift is the best in the business and takes his job seriously. He soon learns that Remi Devine has so much more depth than she projects publicly.
This is Love is what I like to call a “Hallmark” suspense since it has a sweet love story and minimal conflict. Remi and Mason have both suffered great tragedies having lost parents and Mason having lost friends while at war, I was truly heartbroken for them both. The stalker helped keep the anticipation, waiting for him to pop up. I love how helping others became a big part of the story, especially such a vulnerable population. There are so many side characters that I was continually confused, especially when there was a large gathering. While I have read a few Melissa Foster books, I have not read them all, I can appreciate carryover characters or characters that make cameos but there are just so many it was too much for me to keep straight. Overall this is a sweet story with a little bit of suspense to keep it interesting.
Another enjoyable addition to the Harmony Pointe book series. Rémi Devine is an A list actress with a stalker and an overprotective brother/manager Aiden. Ramie hated having a bodyguard and ditched her previous team. While Aiden is out of the country on a business deal, he hires Mason to run Remi’s security detail. There is instant attraction, and the fact that Mason wants to help Remi live a relatively normal life while still being safe increases Remi’s attraction. I liked both Remi and Mason and catching up on the other characters from the Sugar Lake/Harmony Pointe universe. Definitely a fun, steamy romance. I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley for my honest review.
