In RIVER OF LOVE... 
River rafting and adventure company owner Sam Braden works hard and plays harder. He's fast, focused, and determined--and never at a loss for a willing woman to share his time with. The trouble is, the only woman he wants refuses him at every turn. 

Physician assistant Faith Hayes escaped her painful past and built a safe, happy life in Peaceful Harbor. She's also put what she's learned to good use helping others by founding Women Against Cheaters, an online support group. When her boss's sinfully sexy brother sets his sights on sweet Faith, she knows the self-professed player is everything she shouldn't want, and she's determined to resist him. 

Sam pulls out all the stops, proving to Faith that his past doesn't have to define his future. As she lets down her guard and begins to trust Sam, intense conversations turn to intimate pleasures. But when real life steps in and their pasts collide, it's Faith who's left with something to prove.

  • Fabulous Book Narrated by BJ Harrison

    As always Melissa Foster has written another great book about the Braden’s, this book is Sam’s story! Sam meets Faith at his brothers medical practice, everyone wants him to stay away from Faith because he hops from woman to woman and no one thinks he will stick with Faith, not only does he have to prove to her but his brother and her best friend too. Sam has his work cut out and Melissa knows how to spin a great story. I simply love how she pulls you into a story and keeps you engrossed in the story. I read the book first then was offered the audio version and let me just say listening to B.J. Harrison narrate, he was phenomenal. Didn’t want him to stop talking in my ear 😄. When ever I got to my destination I didn’t want to turn off the book, I wanted to keep listening to BJ’s voice. He just has a way with narration that keeps you listening. Melissa you know how to pick great narrators, I hope you keep BJ for future books as well. Go grab the eBook as well as the Audio version as well, you will love it. Thanks for letting me listen to the audio book, I really enjoyed it and look forward to hearing more of your books read by BJ Harrison. I highly recommend this audio book!!!

    This book is about a person's ability to change in order to be worthy of someone's love and the other person's learning to trust enough to let love in.Sam's brother has warned him away from Faith, the physician's assistant that works in Cole's practice. He knows Sam is a huge player and doesn't want to see Faith hurt. Sam's attraction to Faith overcomes everything else and he wants to get to know her better. Unfortunately, Faith knows about his reputation, too.She's convinced he's a cheater.

  • Sam & Faith...Match Made in Heaven

    By Kirsten Ellen
    MR SAM BRADEN is one heck of a man to be in Love with. And Faith knows it! She's been hurt by a man who is, in her mind, just like Sam. Flirty with woman, can't settle down with just one, and, in her eyes, would cheat in a heartbeat. But, what she doesn't realize is that Sam may be a flirt and jump from woman to woman, but he would never, EVER put a woman into the shoes he was once in and cheat on one of them. They know the story up front of what he wants. So, he sets out to prove her wrong. Faith and Sam fight the attraction toward each other until they cant anymore. In the end, can Faith and Sam fight the attraction or fight through her insecurities? BJ Harrison beautifully narrates this amazing story of Trust and faith, allowing us to feel every emotion that Sam and Faith are fighting with throughout.

    What do you get when you mix a lady’s man with a woman who is weary of men in general, and those that cheat in particular. Sparks! I loved reading this book and seeing a love unfold between a man who was never willing to commit and a woman who never wanted to commit again. Despite his brother’s warning to stay away from Faith, Sam was on a mission to earn her trust. The lengths that Sam will go to in order to make Faith believe in him was very romantic. And Faith had to go against her best friend’s advice and take a leap of faith and hope that Sam would catch her!

  • Don't Always Judge a Book by Its Cover

    By Amanda0314
    I would have to say, Don't Always Judge, for my 3 words for this book. Don't always be so quick to judge others until you have all of the information. Sam was DEFINITELY my favorite character within the book. He really had to work hard to prove himself to Faith and show her that he is a good guy. I loved how confident he was with himself and how hard he was willing to work every time Faith tried to hold him at a distance. The two of them together were scorching. When reading a book, you are really only able to get so much out of it. You create the characters in your mind and can really only get so much out of it. B.J. Harrison helped bring the characters to life and add depth to them throughout. I loved how he brought a new side and view to things and made it even more enjoyable for readers throughout the book. If I had just read the book, I think that there are details I would have missed had I never listened to the audiobook.

    One of my favorite Braden books. I love how Sam changed his ways when he found Faith. So romantic. I loved their date on the river.

  • Sam and Faith

    Sam doesn’t cheat. He’s actually a good guy with a big, well-deserved reputation. Can he earn Faith’s trust? Can he redeem himself enough to at least get her to go out with him? Can he stop playing the player and be true to himself? Melissa Foster has written another Braden winner with the story of Sam and Faith. The character building is phenomenal, from the main characters all the way to the friends and family. Like life, the storyline is simple, yet complex. The characters seem real, and the redemption isn’t too easy. Sam and Faith – names to remember. I read this book, then I listened to the audio version. B. J. Harrison is the narrator. He is SO good. His voice flows and he brings such great nuances to each character. I really think he could make the phone book sound good! Listening to this narrator was a pleasure, and his voice made the story come alive!
