In USA Today best seller Anything for Love...

After Charlotte Sterling loses her last family member, she moves to Sterling House, her family's Colorado mountain inn, to live a solitary life. As an erotic romance writer, her days and nights are filled with passion and intrigue - even if only fictional. She loves her busy, quiet lifestyle, and she learned early on that real men can't live up to the fictional heroes she creates - until ruggedly handsome Beau Braden arrives to do some work at the inn, and, for the first time in forever, she's intrigued by a real man.

Beau lost his first love years ago, and he's never let go of his guilt over her death. As he nears the anniversary of his loss, he is on the cusp of becoming the star of a home-renovation reality show. Escaping the painful memories of his past to work at the defunct old inn is just the promise of solitude he needs to clear his head before diving in to the all-too-public career. But he didn't count on being attracted to the whimsical, adorably sexy innkeeper.

Neither Charlotte nor Beau is looking for an attachment or a fling. But the more they learn about each other, the closer they become. Romantic evenings lead to intimate conversations, and neither can deny their deep connection or the passion it sparks. They've never fully healed on their own, but together maybe anything is possible.

Charlotte and Beau

Audiobook Review… Oh My Gosh, the people at the gym I go to must think I am crazy. I laughed out loud so many times while listening to Charlotte and Beau’s story. The narrators made them come to life to me, I loved, I cried, I laughed, and I enjoyed every single syllable that was read to me. Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber are amazing. They used the perfect tones, the perfect cadence, and the right amount of emotion to bring Charlotte and Beau to life. Melissa Foster wrote a book and the narrators knew just how to read it.

eBook Review…I love how consistent Melissa Foster is with her writing. With each book of hers that I read, I find real characters with lives that are believable and friends that are so true to each other. Each book is a new and amazing story with no cliffhangers. The characters from other books in the series make an appearance so we can catch up with what is happening in their lives while meeting new characters that we hope to learn more about in future books.

Anything For Love is the story of Charlotte and Beau. Charlotte lives alone in her family’s mountain inn while Beau is running from his home after losing his high school sweetheart. Beau is a man who loved, lost, and now blames himself. He takes jobs that require traveling just to stay away from his home. When asked by Hal Braden (I love him and his matchmaking) to take a job helping Charlotte with repairs at the inn he jumps at the chance. Charlotte seems oblivious to much that happens around her. She is so wrapped up in her writing that she lives in a fiction world most of the time. Together they work together. Charlotte pushes, pulls, and supports Beau while he tries to find his way back to happiness and Beau forces Charlotte to open her eyes to the world around her.


I am excited for this series to continue. The Braden’s and The Montgomery’s coming together is a set of books is a dream come true. They are perfect together and I cannot wait to see where these two families are headed.

Not one to miss...

Anything for Love is the second book in this series. Beau and Charlotte are perfect for each other. This book had me laughing so hard at times. The story was believable, lighthearted, sweet, and intense, all rolled into one. I absolutely loved it, and I enjoyed listening to the narrator as well. Definitely one not to be missed.

Amazing story

Beau and Charlotte were absolutely wonderful together. Charlotte was so much fun and so full of life you couldn't help but to fall in love with her. Beau was weighed down by guilt and Charlotte was able to help Beau rethink and reevaluate the whole situation.
I loved the audible version of this book. Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber brought this book to life. They did an amazing job. I truly enjoyed listening to Beau and Charlotte's story.

You will laugh your a@@ off.

***Edit To Original Post***
I originally read Anything for Love back in June 2018. I just now listened to the audio version of this book. What an amazing narration was by Ava Erickeson & Zachary Webber. I truly love listening the audio version/ I listen in my car going back and forth to work.
OMG Charlotte! What can I say about her, she had me cracking up with her blow ups and handcuffs. I found myself laughing so many times. Hal had asked Beau if he could go to the Inn to do some repairs. Beau had a hard time moving on from his past. Charlotte and Beau are proof that fairy tales do exist. What a wonderful story. This book is a standalone with a definite HEA. A perfect summer read.

Chickendales!

Love, love, love Beau and Charlotte! Beau agrees to fix damage done by his cousins at Charlotte's Inn but little does he know, she might actually be fixing his heart. Charlotte is such an incredible free-spirit, erotic romance writer. Her "quirks" are what makes Beau fall for her and made me as a reader fall for her and root for the two of them as well. Charlottes perspective on life is refreshing - from Chickendales to dreamscapes and jars she will make you belief on fairy tales. I also loved the appearances by many others of the Braden family - if you are a fan of other Love in Bloom novels you will love the appearances by some of your other Braden family members.

This beautiful story is narrated by Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber. I had some difficulty with the seemingly, to me, change between narrators. It took some time and I was able to get used to the narration by both but would have preferred either just one narrator or having each of them stick to one character.

Beau and Charlotte are quite simply an amazing surprise - to each other and to us as readers.

Erotic Pleasure

I loved Beau and Charlotte's story so much. Listening to this audiobook was such a pleasure. Narrators Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber do an amazing job. Beau is doing repairs on Charlotte's inn and right off the bat Beau is caught off guard. Charlotte is an erotic romance writer and Beau has no idea what he is walking into when he first arrives at the inn. Moans, and blow up dolls and handcuffs. Not what he was expecting. Things got pretty intense and steamy rather quickly. Just how i like it. I love stories that catch u right at the beginning and keep your attention. Their story had everything and more.

Typical Romance

I enjoy Zachary and Ava. It was just sooooo over the top perfect romance that yes it was very sweet, but not grit.

Fun Flirty Sexy

This story will have you laughing like you never have before. Charlotte and Beau have a great chemistry together that really comes across. Melissa really makes you feel like you are right there in the middle of things. The descriptions of things has you feeling like you are in a Disney setting while chasing after Chickendales.

You first meet Charlotte in Josh and Riley's wedding story, Fast forward almost two years and Beau Braden comes out to repair the damage the Braden girls created while staying there for Josh and Riley's wedding. I thought it was kind of weird that it took Beau almost two years to come out and fix the damage his cousins created.

The story was narrated by a male and female narrator which is not my favorite. You had the male narrator voicing male and female parts and the female doing the same. I would have liked to have the male narrator do the male parts and female do the female parts but I am sure that is not as easy as it sounds. Regardless this is a story that you must read or listen to. You will fall in love and have some good laughs.

Beau and Charlotte

I recently had the opportunity to listen to the audiobook of this story. Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber narrated the story and did a good job with the dual narration. It seemed more natural to me and brought the story to life. My original review follows:

When I began reading this story, I thought Charlotte was a total whack-job. I mean, who acts out the scenes in the book she’s writing (she writes erotica), and with blow-up dolls yet! As it turns out, she is a bit of a nut, but a sweet one. She’s whimsical. Beau, on the other hand, is closed off, heartbroken, and full of guilt for something that happened a decade ago. His family is worried about him, so he accepts a job at the Inn that Charlotte owns to escape their well-meaning concerns. Boy meets girl, girl meets boy, sparks fly, and bam, they’re in lust/love. This book is full of heat. Lots of heat. It’s also funny. From Twix bars to Snow White’s cabin, horseback rides and the Chickendales, this one will keep you turning the pages!

Absolutely loved the humor in this story!

I listened to the audio version of this book. I was immediately drawn into this book. From the description of the house the heroine lives in to her running around in the woods trying to round up her "chickendales". Charlotte is quite the character. She absolutely has no shame...and it was wonderful!
Beau is a guy who is running from a traumatic event in his past. He's there to fix Charlotte's house with his "big ladder", but Charlotte may actually be the one to fix him. Great interaction between these characters. His reaction to some of the research she does to help with the writing of her erotic novels was hilarious. I loved the humor in this book! Of course there was plenty of sexy time, too!
This was my first experience with the narration duo of Ava Erickson and Zachary Webber. I thought it was excellent!
