IN ROMANCING MY LOVE...
After months of caring for her terminally ill mother, Rebecca Rivera is left all alone in a world she doesn't trust--but she's determined not to let her mother's death define her. Losing her job, having to pummel some jerk for being too handsy, and living in her car are just temporary setbacks to an otherwise solid plan in finding her footing. Full of pride and used to being in control of her life, she's certain she can make it on her own. The last thing Rebecca needs is a man to fix her troubles--even if that man is strikingly handsome, wealthy, and charismatic Pierce Braden.
Pierce is a powerful real estate investor on the verge of a major acquisition. As the eldest of six siblings raised by a single mother, he's spent his life protecting those he loves. He's used to being in charge and making things right, and although he'd give his life for his family, he treats the women he dates as expendable--until he meets sexy and stubborn Rebecca Rivera, a woman who is as strong as she is vulnerable.
Passion ignites between them, and the two share their most intimate thoughts and desires. It doesn't take long for Pierce to realize that Rebecca is as determined not to be saved as he is to find a way into her heart. As their love grows, Rebecca must face fears she didn't even realize she had--and Pierce must learn the hard truth that sometimes less really is more. Is the power of true love enough for Rebecca and Pierce to learn to give up control and allow their hearts to take over?

The thing I like the most about the Melissa Foster’s series is that you can read them out of order and not be lost. Romancing My Love #17 in the Love in Bloom series and #9 in the Braeden series is no exception.
Romancing My Love is the kind of story that will stir up your emotions, but the one it resonated for me was the pain of losing a loved one. Having recently lost my mom under the same circumstances as Rebecca, the female protagonist, it was easy for me to relate to her and the pain she was going through. I understood exactly how she felt and for me this story brought back some painful, angry and happy memories.
Rebecca likes to be in total control of her life. She is self-sufficient and detests relying on others for help, as such when she met Pierce Braden, who was determined to be her knight in shining armor, she was having none of it.
Pierce an entrepreneur and billionaire was captivated by Rebecca the first time he laid eyes on her. He is a womanizer whom could have any woman he wanted. Women were always throwing themselves at him so he was pleasantly surprised when Rebecca was not susceptible to his charms at first. Due to his persistent nature, he was able to wear down her resistance.
These two are great together, but Rebecca is afraid to trust her heart to Pierce. Her desire to be in control at all times ends up affecting her ability to trust and to allow Pierce to love her the best way he knows how.
Pierce is patient with her and is willing to love her on her own terms even if it meant suppressing his desires to protect her. This was not easy for him as he is the type of man that any woman would love to have in their lives. He is loving, sensitive, compassionate and passionate.
After reading this book I have to say without a doubt that Melissa Foster has joined my list of must read authors. She is skilled at weaving a story that pulls you in and keeps you entertained to the very end. Her stories are usually based on some real life issues to which her readers can relate.
Romancing My Love is a beautiful and romantic story that will tug at your heart strings and will stay with you for days.
