Genre: Adult Fiction (Contemporary Romance)

Publisher: World Literary Press

Fall in love in Sweet with Heat: Bayside Summers, where sandy beaches, good friends, and true love come together in the sweet small towns of Cape Cod. 

When Emery Andrews’s best friend, Desiree, moves away, falls in love, and opens an inn all in one summer, she feels her absence like a missing limb. Until she visits over the holidays and meets sinfully hot Dean Masters, who’s as easy on the eyes as he is to talk to. After returning home, what starts as a flurry of late-night flirtations quickly turns into a deep connection and unexpected friendship. Now, months later, Desiree offers Emery a job teaching yoga at the inn. Adventurous Emery jumps at the chance and heads for Wellfleet, Massachusetts, to reunite with her BFF and her new close friend, Dean.

After months of sharing their lives, and their secrets, over video chats and phone calls, Dean’s ready to move things to the next level. The fact that Emery seems oblivious to the sparks between them and has recently put her foot down about dating friends just means he’ll have to bide his time.

When Emery finds a man in her kitchen the first morning she’s there, Dean doesn’t hesitate to move her into his guest room. Maybe now Emery will see what’s right before her eyes–although that guy she’s got a date with might be a problem.

Sweet with Heat books are the sweet editions of the Love in Bloom steamy romance novels by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. Sweet with Heat books convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.

Sweet Passions at Bayside is the second book in the Sweet with Heat: Bayside Summers series by Addison Cole. I was so excited to see that Emery moved to Bayside. She adds to the fun. She's pretty free-spirited, but I think some of that may also be self preservation, because she thinks she ruins relationships. So, if she doesn't expect much, she can't be disappointed. When something real presents itself? Well... she doesn't see it. Dean is steamy. His smolder seeps off the pages. Especially in the beginning... he melts the pages. I like this guy. Also, I love this kind of story. Best friends to more is my favorite scenario to read about. I love all the build up and risk. This story really keeps it all building too. I couldn't get enough of these two!
