Sea of Love: Dane Braden (Love in Bloom: The Bradens at Weston, Co, #4) (Love in Bloom: The Bradens)

by Melissa Foster

Voted BEST BOOK SERIES by Supportive Business Moms, UK



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 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.



**BONUS** Includes the first chapter (sneak peek) of Bursting with Love (Savannah and Jack).



SEA OF LOVE is part of the Love in Bloom series. While SEA OF LOVE can be read as a stand-alone novel, for even more reading enjoyment you may want to read the entire Love in Bloom series in series order.

Reviews

[stressedrach]

In Sea of Love we get to know more about Dane Braden and Lacy Snow. Dane was just how I remembered him from when Danica and Kaylie were married but I thought the whole relationship things was dead in the water so to speak when he left pretty soon after arriving at the resort and left Lacy pining for him. Now we learn that they have been in constant contact for that whole fifteen months but have not actually met up due to schedules not matching. They do finally meet up at Treat and Max's wedding but their romance is very rocky. With Dane tagging sharks, and Lacy scared of sharks, lacy loving her job as does Dane and neither of them wanting to give up what they love how could it possibly work?
When they are together the loving is passionate, hot and steamy when they are apart they are miserable something has to give.
Dane was the most memorable Braden mainly because of his 10 inches haha and I was looking forward to catching up with him as he has been brushed upon in the previous books but not much was given away. It was brilliant that Danica and Kaylie were around as sisters should be to their other sister Lacy.
I liked how Dane and Lacy knew almost everything about each other, even the deep and meaningful stuff before eventually meeting up as if they are still talking to each other after that long and so much told they are destined to be together.
This series just keeps getting better and better, I always look forward to reading the next instalment and they have never disappointed me. This is the best series I have read in a long time.

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free for a Blog Tour in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.The first few chapters are set at Max and Treat's wedding and all I can say is man does Treat know how to throw a wedding. It was beautiful. I loved it and after hearing so much about the dress in Friendship on Fire it was excellent to finally picture Max in it.

Lacy Snow is a brave woman. She has a phobia like a huge phobia and she faces it. That is an achievement. I really liked Lacy. I thought she was a very sweet, clever girl and she had clearly fallen for Dane. Big time! It was obvious from the very first chapter how much she had fallen for him even if she didn't quite know it herself yet.

Kaylie and Danica were excellent sisters. They could have hated Lacy being their half sister and all, but they show nothing but love and concern for Lacy as well as a lot of support.

Dane  has what I am becoming to realise is the usual Braden traits loyal, kind, caring and sensitive. Oh and of course stupidly gorgeous. In friendship on fire we catch a slight glimpse of how much he likes Lacy but this multiplies a million times in this book. I really loved seeing the twists and turns in his relationships with Lacy, his best friend Rob and his family.

The Bradens are a loyal family. Once you are in the fold you are protected for life and I love that. I also love Hal's saying "Family knows no boundaries" it is especially true for this family. I can't wait to read Savannah and Hugh's stories in Bursting for Love and Hearts at Play.
