This Is Love by Melissa Foster

This Is Love (Harmony Pointe, #2)

by Melissa Foster

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 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 by Melissa Foster delivered all I expected and more. A sexy, emotional, intense, and entertaining read. I had been looking forward to Remi’s story ever since she was introduced in the Sugar Lake series and my anticipation increased tenfold after reading Call Her Mine.

Remington Alridge, screen name, Remi Divine is an A-list actress. Like all actresses she has her adoring fans, however there is one who has taken his adoration a bit too far. So much so, he has taken to stalking her, breaking into her home, and carrying out a host of other creepy things. To ensure her protection, and to find the perpetrator, her big brother, Aiden secured the services of bodyguards. However, Remi, who feels constricted by the constant shadowing of the guards, always ditches them. At his wit’s end, Aiden goes for the big guns. Enters Mason Swift a former soldier, who takes his job of protection seriously. He may prove to be the one bodyguard she has no desire to ditch.

Remi and Mason despite being from different worlds had several things in common. They both experienced loss at an early age. Despite this, they were strong, determined, hardworking and caring individuals. Although their attraction to each other was immediate, their relationship evolved at a slow pace, adding authenticity to the romance.

Laden with humour, I laughed at the antics of the characters. However, the funniest and sweetest moment for me was when Remi discovered that the man she had been admiring would be her bodyguard. That moment was priceless.

I found the storyline regarding the stalker intriguing. I never had a clue as to the stalker’s identity. Foster threw me a loop with that twist. Never for a moment did I saw that one coming.

It was great reconnecting with the characters from the previous series and seeing how their lives have evolved. I enjoyed the camaraderie between family and friends that is present in Foster’s stories. Piper Dalton never failed to crack me up and I wait to get her story.

Narration
Although I received an ARC through Netgalley, I opted to listen to the audio version. The narrator, John Lane did a good job in capturing both male and female voices. It was a pleasure listening to his voice.

Conclusion/Recommendation
This is Love is a great addition to the Harmony Pointe series. I am waiting with bated breath for Piper’s story.
