In Making You Mine…
Knox Bentley never liked the pomp and circumstance that came with being wealthy. He’d distanced himself from his pretentious family and their fortune as a young adult and found his own path to success. But even with the world at his fingertips, he realizes something is missing, and after a long stay overseas, he finally knows exactly what it is. His no-strings-attached hookups with Aubrey Stewart, an exquisite and stubbornly independent blonde, are no longer enough for him. They connect on every level, but Aubrey is a fierce businesswoman with a new movie channel on the horizon and no time for much else. She is the deal he can’t close, the precious jewel even his billions can’t buy. Now that he’s back in the States, he’s determined to show her that what they have goes beyond the bedroom and finally make her his.Love in Bloom novels feature alpha-male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They’re flawed, funny, passionate, and relatable to listeners who enjoy contemporary romance and women’s fiction. For avid fans of the Love in Bloom series, you may have met sexy and hilarious Knox Bentley, Graham Braden’s business partner, in Trails of Love, and Aubrey Stewart, one of the badass billionaire founders of the Ladies Who Write (LWW), in Anything for Love.
This really was the perfect book to pick up during a rather stressful week. I found this to be a really enjoyable and uncomplicated romance. I have read a few titles published under Melissa Foster’s pen name that she uses for her sweeter titles, Addison Cole, but this is the first I have read with Melissa Foster listed as the author. This book is part of a series but I read it as a stand-alone and thought it worked perfectly fine on its own. I definitely had a good time with this delightful romance.
Knox and Aubrey aren’t strangers to each other. They have been hooking up with each other after different events for quite a while. They both want to keep it no-strings-attached until Knox decides that he wants more. I loved watching Knox convince Aubrey to give him a chance. They really make a fantastic couple and had a lot of wonderful chemistry. There weren’t a lot of obstacles to their relationship and I thought it was fun to watch them fall for each other.
Andi Arndt and Jason Clarke both did a fantastic job with the narration. I thought that they both handled all of the character voices very well and brought a lot of emotion to the story. Andi Arndt has been a favorite narrator of mine for a long time and I could see myself adding Jason Clarke’s name to that list. They both read at a very nice pace and I feel like their performance added to my enjoyment of the story.
I would recommend this book to others. I found this to be a very enjoyable romance filled with wonderful characters. I wouldn’t hesitate to read more of Melissa Foster’s work in the future.
I received a copy of this audiobook from the author/publicist via Audiobook Boom.

It's an auhor I need to try
I still haven't read anything by Melissa Foster but I know I have a couple by her on my Kindle. I think I find her backlist intimidating because she has so many series and they seem to be interconnected. Hard to know where to start! 🙂 But this sounds like a good one… and you can't go wrong with Andi Arndt narrating.
I enjoyed this one too. It sounds like the narrators did and excellent job.
i know i have heard of her. i think i've even read one of them. glad it was a good one for you

This is the exact kind of lighter read that I think a lot of us have turned to recently. My reads have been rather heavy recently, so I'm eager to read something a bit less taxing on my emotions. There's enough of that in the real world right now!
I think I have some of hers are freebies :=)
This really does sound like light and enjoyable read.
I haven't picked up Melissa Foster, but I know many readers enjoy her work. Glad this worked for you so well.
Great review.
I have a bunch of freebies from Melissa Foster and have yet to try them. But I LOVE Andi ARndt. Having the ebook could make the audio cheaper so I'm not sorry I got the freebies. Fabulous review!

This sounds like the perfect book for this kind of weird time! I've been meaning to read this author for awhile and I love the sound of this one. I love when characters have a history together. It makes it so much more believable.
