Love that all the books are about the brothers and their love conquering everything. Although there are a few spelling errors in each book that need to be fixed.

Dane and Lacy a HOT mess!

Sea of Love is the story of Lacy Snow (½ sister to Danica and Kailey aka Snow Sisters) and Dane Braden. Dane educates people around the world about the importance of sharks in our ecosystem. Lacy Snow is an account executive who was attacked by a shark as a young girl. The writing style of Melissa Foster is fun, loving, sexy, and a large family saga type of story. I enjoyed Dane and Lacy’s story more than I thought I would. These two are a hot mess. BJ Harrison narrates Sea of Love. I enjoy listening to BJ narrate for Melissa. BJ does a very fine job of narrating both the male and female characters. So far these early books have all been narrated by him. I have realized that the early books by Melissa are narrated pretty exclusively by BJ. Her more recent books have more variety in the narration department. I received an ALC in exchange for an honest review. ****

This story is Lacey Snow and Dane Braden. Really enjoyed the story itself from how it started, and we get to hear from a lot of the Braden’s and family friends. Then the story narrows towards Lacey and Dane. After a long time of texting, Skype and calling - Lacey and Dane are finally in the same space and we’ll see if they can be more than friends. There was a lot that happened during their story - both good and bad and it was interesting to watch our couple to see how they would handle things. I always love when Hal is in the story because I know that he’s going to share his wisdom with Dane and of course us and we’ll see the situation differently and in turn fixing or correcting whatever the bump in the road is. Loved how after the conversation with Hal everything clicked for Dane and he knew what he wanted to do for him and Lacey. Great ending to the story. I listened to this story as an audiobook narrated once again by BJ Harrison. He continues to do a great job in his narration and considering from around chapter 26 through the end of the book a lot happened, and his narration didn’t falter, and he just drew you into the story more than you already were.
Sharks or love--which to be more afraid of?

I loved coming back to this book a couple years after initially reading it and listening to the audiobook version. Lacy and Dane, who were introduced during Melissa's "Snow Sisters" series, come back together after months of keeping in touch and steamy conversations. This book was great to experience as an audiobook because you can really feel the emotion conveyed between the characters. Between the physical distance that has separated them and the two separate "worlds" they come from, as a reader you really aren't sure if these two are going to overcome fears and reservations to come together. They really do have to build on everything they built in their long distance relationship and explore their fears.
Does love conquer all?

15 months. It took 15 months for Lacy and Dane to be in the same physical space again. It took Max and Treat's wedding to finally make it happen. The attraction was immediate and likely obvious to everyone around them. While the attraction was undeniable, what was it that kept them apart for so long? Work? Promotions? The Brave Foundation mission of helping sharks?
Lacy, is afraid of sharks due to an experience from her childhood. Dane isn't sure, at first, what he is afraid of, but why didn't he go to Lacy during those 15 months? How these two be able to overcome their fears? Or will they?
When they are together, the passion is undeniable. But, how do they get past their hangups in order to be together? Does love conquer all?
I thoroughly enjoyed following Lacy and Dane on their journey. I laughed and cried for them, and continued to hold out hope that they would pull together in the end.

Melissa Foster couldn't have picked a better narrator for her books! BJ Harrison is amazing! I love the way he is able to change up his voice so much from character to character. He even keeps the same voices he uses for the characters that pop in from the other books he has narrated of hers. It is simply wonderful.
This is one of my favorite stories in the Love in Bloom series. Dane & Lacy have to overcome so much to finally be together, the biggest thing being his career. Dane is a shark tagger/researcher and Lacy is deathly afraid of sharks after having had a run in with one as a child. It has been 15 months since Dane & Lacy met at her sisters' wedding in the Bahamas. They have been in constant contact getting to know each other intimately, just not in person. When they finally see each other after all this time, they are already in love. The realities of life cause them quite a bit of problems but their love, which is big as the sea, will see them through.
Worth the Wait

Lacy and Dane met at Her sisters' destination wedding in Nassau. Fifteen months later, at Max & Treat's wedding, they FINALLY see each other in person after all those months of texts, phone calls, & video chats. But all the buildup was more than what Lacy bargained for when she develops a panic attack after realizing her fear of sharks...which happens to be Dane's livelihood.
But Dane won't let her go with fighting for her. He develops a way to help Lacy by showing her everything to do with the Brave Foundation.
Finally, they get thru her fears and believe they can get thru anything...until an accident makes it clear to the both of them that things aren't so clear cut.
They soon realize that with their love, they can get thru anything!
BJ Harrison brings the book alive and really allows you to feel what the characters are feeling...allowing you to know exactly what they are going through!
If ever there were a couple that belonged together

Dane Braden wasn't looking for anything serious, but in the fifteen months since he last saw Lacy Snow, she's somehow become a huge part of his life. But Skype and Facetime are nothing compared to what he feels when he finally lays eyes on her again.
Lacy Snow knows better than to get involved with a man who makes a living — and makes his home — in a boat traveling around the world. But something about Dane grabs ahold of her, and when they're finally in the same place, there's no way they can deny their attraction. But what he does for a living is everything she fears, and falling in love doesn't necessarily make their lives any more compatible.
TheVerdict: I absolutely loved Lacy. She's outgoing and sweet and fun — and even when things got all kinds of angsty, I understood every decision she made.
To be honest, I didn't expect to like Dane very much. After learning a little about him in the earlier books, I just couldn't see how he was going to convince me that he was worth Lacy. But his internal conflict, his initially not being able to name or understand what he was feeling… Well, seeing everything from his perspective had me falling in love with him right alongside Lacy.
While all the characters and stories in this series are very different from each other (and individually wonderful), this one really stood out to me. Maybe it's that Dane is a flawed guy who doesn't instantly better himself, but rather takes a bit of time to come to terms with both what he wants and who he wants to be. Or maybe it was the whole anxiety thing that sneaked up on Lacy — it should have irked me, given my usual aversion to fictional issues like that, but she ended up making perfect sense to me.
And of course, there was the romance. These two took a hell of a long time to get their heads straight — kinda reminded me of Treat and Max with their whole self-sacrificing bit — but if ever there were a couple that belonged together! Their chemistry was off the charts, and the connection they shared was so believable that I was right in the middle of the angst-fest with them. Good thing Melissa Foster always delivers a happily ever after!
