In FRIENDSHIP ON FIRE...
Small-town overachiever Riley Banks has finally scored her big break--working in Manhattan as a fashion design assistant for her childhood crush, Josh Braden. She enters her new job hoping to make a name for herself and--just maybe--explore the romance that slipped through her fingers way back when.

Josh Braden has models at his beck and call, a staff that never says never, and an elegant clothing line for the holiday season. When he hires Riley Banks, he expects her to learn the business from the ground up. But the girl next door turns out to be much more than he remembered.

Josh and Riley's friendship heats up. Every steamy kiss and every erotic caress stirs a love they cannot deny. But when Riley designs a wedding gown that would cause even the most jaded fashion editors to swoon, Riley's mentor accuses her of stealing the design.

Facing indisputable proof and the mistrust of her lover, Riley is not sure she can take the heat of life in the fast lane of the fashion industry--and Josh is forced to choose between the woman he loves and the career he adores.

"Melissa Foster writes her romance novels similarly to my favorite adult romance author, Danielle Steel: the perfect blend of drama, romance, friendship, love and passion."- Andrea Buginsky, author 

"I highly recommend this book to fans of Nora Roberts (one of my personal faves) and fans of a sweet story filled with heat and heart." - Tia Bach, author

"I highly recommend the Snow Sisters all the Braden and Remington books....I am sure there are going to be other family's that intertwine and that is what I love most about these books.

Awkward. I dropped it after cringing through the first nine chapters. I really really tried to like it, but when the guy started explaining that he sent her a message in giving her red-tipped yellow roses I was done. Mostly, it was his surprise that she didnā€™t get the message that annoyed me. Nope. Most of the characters so far are flat and clicheā€™d. Iā€™m going to pass on this one. Not for me, I guess.

Josh and Riley. The Bradenā€™s are an amazing family. Josh is tall dark handsome and successful. Riley is the girl from home who was adored from afar . Now they get their chance if the jealous Cruellas can just leave them alone. I am getting used to the narrator l. It took me awhile but I loved the story and I am finding that while not my favorite narrator he grows on you ;)

Okay. . .. One of the main characterā€™s career challenge, dragged too much; as well as with the other main character with the ā€œyou love me, you love me not. . .ā€ But I do enjoy reading Mā€™s series!

Small town live in the big city!. The audio version of Friendship on Fire is just as good if not better than the print version. I read Riley and Joshā€™s love story several years ago and loved it! Now, I was able to listen to it come alive in my head and visualize the passion easier. Even though I have read the book I still found myself nervously listening to the parts that were tension filled. It was like listening/reading the story for the first time. BJ Harrison does a fine job of narrating this story. Iā€™m always amazed at how many voices a single person can perform and remember which voice goes with which character. I like his voice. I wish there was a female and male narrator. My preference is dual narrators. I received an ALC in exchange for an honest review. ****

Friendship on Fire. Really good romance. Love all the Braden brothers. All the characters are awesome. This is the third one Iā€™ve read and Iā€™ve loved them all.

Love it. Absolutely love it

Out of order. This is a great series but book three was released before book two.

Love the Braden's. I really enjoyed reading the story of the gentler son, Josh. All of the Braden's from Weston, CO are amazing characters, so the world we go to in the series always provides an emotional ride with a happy ending.

Everything I love about a good romance. Riley Banks has been waiting for a break, a way to put her fashion design degree to use ever since school ended. But in an industry more about who you know than what you know, she was beginning to lose hope ā€” Until Josh Braden, the crush from her teen years turned top designer, took notice of her designs. Only now that she has a chance at his design company, she needs to be noticed for what she can do, not who she canā€™t take her eyes off. Josh Braden could get any woman in New York that he wants, but thatā€™s the problem. He doesnā€™t want any of them. He wants the girl from back home, the one comfortable in jeans and boots, the one whose design portfolio blew him away. Hiring her is the best decision heā€™s made in a long time, and being her boss wonā€™t stop him from pursuing something more with her. But in the cutthroat world of fashion design, her shot at a career could be ruined if everyone finds out sheā€™s sleeping with the boss. The Verdict: You know, I had my doubts that Josh could live up to the ultimate manā€™s man that Rex was in the last book, but I should have known better. Put him in an Armani suit, and heā€™s sex on legs, of course. And I probably shouldnā€™t have been surprised that Friendship on Fire served up the jealous other woman bit without falling into a pit of cliches. Riley isnā€™t what people might think of as a typical New Yorker, and she doesnā€™t fit the stereotype for being in the fashion industry. Sheā€™s certainly not a large girl, but sheā€™s not stick-thin, either, and that makes her a bit self-conscious around edgier, cooler, thinner people. But sheā€™s not about to change who she is, and while self-conscious, she doesnā€™t give into any shame, and thatā€™s what makes her stand out to Josh. The way he sees her is simply beautiful. Sheā€™s the girl he stared at from afar all through school, and he still sees her that way now. At the same time, he sees her as different from everyone heā€™s surrounded by in New York, and her giddy excitement over her new career in fashion coupled with her low-maintenance attitude makes it impossible for him to keep his feelings to himself. I was also pleasantly surprised by the Claudia angle. She was the jealous ice queen who wanted Josh for herself, manipulative and condescending, and she didnā€™t hesitate to underhandedly try to ruin Riley. But with as much hell as she threw at them, Josh and Riley surprised me by taking a different path than I usually see in stories that include this little twist. Where most would have some blowout misunderstanding, complete with unbelievable miscommunication and utter failure to act like mature adults, there were no tantrums here. Sure, there were hurt feelings and a step back, but it was all written so perfectly that I couldnā€™t fault either of the characters for their actions. Thereā€™s a way that Melissa Foster writes all these stories that make them all so different from each other, but at the same time, I can count on being surprised, meeting entirely different characters in different situations, and still loving them just as much. In Friendship on Fire, we see Riley and Joshā€™s flirtation in Destined for Love become a full-on romance. When I expected them to take it slow, they didnā€™t; when I expected them to rush headlong, they held back. And when I expected the jealousy and mistrust to rip them apart, they handled it not like most characters in romances, but more like all us non-fictional people would have. There was hurt, there was angst, and there was communication to set things right. And I think thatā€™s what I love most about all these books. The entire Love in Bloom series takes everything I love about a good romance novel and serves it up the way few authors can.

Page turner. I couldnā€™t stop reading! I fell in love with Josh and Riley.

Excellent read. This is the first book I have read by this author. I was extremely pleased by her rich character development. Felt like I really knew everyone in the book. Quick and enjoyable read. Look forward to more of her books!

Loved it!!. I've loved this series so far! And this one is my favorite yet. Great story with tons of passion!
