Love Like Ours by Melissa Foster

Love Like Ours (Sugar Lake, #3)

by Melissa Foster

One wrong move, and she meets a guy with all the right ones…

Talia Dalton lives her life on cruise control. Despite her successful career as a professor, she prefers protecting her broken heart to taking chances. She’s calm, cool, collected, and steady. Until the morning she takes her eyes off that familiar road and almost runs over the sexiest man she’s ever seen. It may not be the best way to start the day, but it might be the type of shake-up she needs.

Male dancer Derek Grant has goals, and nothing is going to get in the way of achieving them. As a graduate student and the sole caretaker of his ailing father, he hasn’t much time for relationships. Then Talia crashes into his life. Sweet, pretty—and so buttoned-up that he can’t wait to help her cut loose.

For Derek, falling in love was a beautiful accident waiting to happen. And it might be exactly what Talia needs—if she’s willing to let go of the past and embrace every surprise Derek has to offer.

This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Thank you to Lisa for letting me take part in this blog tour. I loved the first two books in this series which are a little different. Its fresher with an edge.
This story follows buttoned up good girl Professor Talia Dalton. She is Willow and Bridgette's older sister and has always been very straight laced.  Talia is a very private person and has always cared about how others see her and . I liked Talia. She cares a lot about her family and has always been close to them. She has a lot of insecurities which I easily identified with. 
Derek Grant is one hell of a man. He has given up a hell of a lot to care for his father but  he wouldn't have it any other way. Derek is an honest, hard working man. He is extremely caring and fiercely loyal to those that he loves. As always Melissa has written a mighty fine man that would have any girl weak at the knees. I also need a tuxedo mocha in my life. It sounds AMAZING.
Melissa had me instantly falling for these two. Their characters are so endearing and you just want to jump in and support them. Melissa's writing never fails to capture my heart.
It was really great to be back with the Daltons and I loved seeing Bohdi's mum again. I loved seeing more scenes with Piper and I am extremely excited for her book. I am also really hoping that Aurelia and Ben get their act together, pronto.
