Summary

Jenna Ward is vivacious, spontaneous, and confident - except when she's around the man who stole her heart years earlier, strikingly handsome, quiet, and reliable Pete Lacroux. After years of trying to get his attention and overwhelmed from dealing with her mother's new cougar lifestyle, Jenna's giving up on Peter - and is ready to explore other men.

As the eldest of five siblings, with an alcoholic father to care for, boat craftsman Pete Lacroux always does the right thing and has no time for a real relationship. He's looking forward to seeing his friend Jenna, a welcome distraction who's so damn sexy and so painfully shy that she equally entertains and confuses him.

When Jenna picks up a hard-bodied construction worker, jealousy ignites Pete's true feelings, and he's powerless to ignore the desires for Jenna he never realized he had. But Pete's not the quiet guy he appears to be, and his life is anything but conducive to a relationship. Can Jenna handle the real Pete Lacroux - the sexiest, most passionate alpha male she's ever seen - or will she crack under pressure? And can Pete reclaim the life he once had without tearing apart his family? This contemporary romance series features alpha male heroes and sexy, empowered women. They're flawed, funny, passionate, and relatable to listeners who enjoy new adult romance, contemporary romance, and women's fiction. While each book may be listened to as a standalone, you might enjoy listening to the entire Love in Bloom series.

Sweet summer loving!

Seaside Hearts is the second book in the Seaside Summers series and I loved it as much as the first. Jenna has wanted Pete for years but when she is near him she gets shy and awkward and she fumbles. As far as she is concerned, she is not his type and he is totally not interested in her. Pete, however, is interested, but he has a complicated home life; his father is an alcoholic and his time is taken up taking care of him and trying to prevent his addiction from being exposed. Jenna decides it is time to give up on her dream of Pete and try moving her attention to other men, but seeing Jenna flirting and with another man makes Pete realise that he has to make a decision. Does he follow his heart or risk losing Jenna forever?

I loved Jenna and Pete's story. Both had complicated situations and issues to deal with. It was great to see Jenna come out of her shell and be the confident gorgeous woman she was. My heart melted for Pete, he was such a sweetheart. But he was also a hot, sexy alpha and when he saw Jenna with another man, his protective instincts kicked in and he knew she was his. The chemistry between the two was off the charts and the love scenes hot. The relationship was well developed and they were an awesome couple.

Seaside Hearts was a great addition to the series and another fab read from Melissa Foster. She is go-to author for me. I've not read a series of hers that I have not loved.


I was so happy to hear that B.J Harrison was narrating this book. He has a great ability to make the story and the characters come alive. He did an amazing job and I hope he narrates the next book in the series too!

True love saves the day

Jenna has loved Pete Lacroux from afar for years and this year she decided to give up on him and date other people. Pete who is having family problems has always loved Jenna but felt he didn't deserve her gets totally jealous when Jenna starts dating. What ensues is funny and emotional with them ending up together only to have Pete family problems impact on their relationship. Love this book and Jennas OCD.

Sit back and relax!

What did you like most about Seaside Hearts?

Seaside Hearts (audible version) by Melissa Foster

I have previously read this book and thoroughly enjoyed it as I do with all of Melissa's books. They are funny, romantic and at part very steamy!!!

The audible book is an excellent idea especially if you want to just pop your earphones in and relax.

What about B.J. Harrison’s performance did you like?

Soothing voice!

Another good listen

Would you consider the audio edition of Seaside Hearts to be better than the print version?

I was always wary of an audio book, but not i have listened to 3 books now I really enjoy then, I am a big fan of the seaside girls and love Jenna and Pete. They go so well together, her with having to have everything colour coded size ordered. Pete happy to let her do it. They took a long time getting together thinking each other only wanted to be friends. They sizzle together. Add in Jenna's mom and Pete's dad there are many hurdles to overcome. But with the help of the seaside girls we have another entertaining story

What does B.J. Harrison bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

His ability to make the girls come alive

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me laugh because of the comments from Bella, and Jenna with her OCD

Any additional comments?

would recommend a listen

Awesome read!! Loved Jenna and Pete

If you could sum up Seaside Hearts in three words, what would they be?

Funny, Heartwarming and Sexy

What did you like best about this story?

It has well developed characters and tons of emotion with an amazing family feel to it, Melissa Foster writes stories that make you want to be part of them and once you jump into this story you won't want to come out until your all finished with sexy Pete and sweet Jenna

Have you listened to any of B.J. Harrison’s other performances? How does this one compare?

YES!! Loved Seaside Dreams

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, i didn't want to turn it off and come away from it!! Love the different voices B.J. Harrison uses for all the characters

Any additional comments?

The story of Jenna and Pete is absolutely one of my favourites. Jenna is completely in-love with Pete and when she's around him she doesn’t act like she has herself together, she acts all shy and silly while Pete has his hands full with his dad who has turned to drink after Pete's Mom's death.
The love story of Jenna and Pete is entertaining and very engrossing that you kept you turning the pages until the end

A perfect escape to the Cape

I loved this!

I love a story that is in a series and you get the chance to get to know the characters through several books, and the the Seaside girls feel like your friends as you read / listen to their stories.

Jenna and Pete's story makes you smile, laugh and want to bang their heads together! They are so cute together and both have things with their parents to figure out as well as their feeling for each other.

B J Harrison narrates this beautifully, I love his voice.

I loved this story and can't wait to catch up with them again as they pop in the other Seaside books.
