SISTERS IN LOVE (Snow Sisters, Book 1) SISTERS IN BLOOM (Snow Sisters, Book 2) SISTERS IN WHITE (Snow Sisters, Book 3) PLUS - Sneak Peek: LOVERS AT HEART (The Bradens, Book 1)
BOOK SUMMARIES: SISTERS IN LOVE: Danica Snow has always been the smart, practical, and appropriate sister. As a therapist, she prides herself on making reasonable, conservative choices, even if a bit boring, and as part of the Big Sister Program, she has little time for anything more in her life.
Blake Carter is a player. He never gets bored of conquering women, and with his sexy good looks and successful lifestyle, he has no trouble finding willing participants. When his friend and business partner dies in a tragic accident, he suddenly, desperately, wants to change his ways. The problem is, he doesn't know how to stop doing what he does best.
When Blake walks into Danica's office, the attraction between them is white hot, but Danica isn't the type to give into the heat and risk her career. Danica's desire sets her on a path of self-discovery, where she begins to question every decision she's ever made. Just this once, Danica wants to indulge in the pleasures of life she's been so willingly ignoring, but with her Little Sister in turmoil and her biological sister's promiscuousness weighing heavily on her heart, she isn't sure it's the right time to set her desires free. --- SISTERS IN BLOOM: Kaylie Snow has always been the fun, flirty, pretty sister. Now her burgeoning baby bump, hormone-infused emotions, and faltering singing career are sending her into an unexpected identity crisis. Watching her older sister, Danica, glide through a major career change and a new relationship with the grace of a ballerina, Kaylie's insecurities rise to the forefront--and her relationship with fiancé Chaz Crew is caught in the crossfire.
Chaz Crew has everything he's ever wanted: a lovely fiancée, a baby on the way, and soon, the film festival he owns will host its biggest event ever. When he's called away to woo the festival's largest sponsor--and the lover he's never admitted to having--secrets from his past turn his new life upside down.
With her baby shower around the corner and her fiancé's big event looming, the pressure is on for Kaylie to pull herself together--and for Chaz to right his wrongs. In a few short weeks, the couple who had it all figured out will learn things about life and love that may change their minds--and their hearts. --- SISTERS IN WHITE: Danica and Kaylie Snow are about to celebrate the biggest day of their lives--their double wedding--on an island in the Bahamas. But no wedding is complete without a little family drama. The two sisters aren't ready to face the father they haven't seen since he divorced their mother and moved away to marry his mistress, and live with Lacy, the half sister they've never met.
While Danica has exchanged letters and phone calls with Lacy, Kaylie has fervently tried to pretend she doesn't exist. Lacy is sweet, fun, and nearly a mirror image of Kaylie. To make matters worse, not only is Lacy looking forward to meeting her sisters, but she idolizes them, too.

"What sets Melissa Foster apart are her compelling characters who you care about... desperately...I dare you to read the first chapter and not be hooked." International bestseller, M.J. Rose
"Melissa Foster is a wonderful connector of readers and books, a friend of authors, and a tireless advocate for women. She is the real deal"--Author Jennie Shortridge
As weird as it sounds, I found myself experiencing anxiety whilst reading this book. Poor Danica really couldn't stop micro managing everyone's emotions, feelings, reactions, etc. I wanted to shake all three sisters at times. I had read Danica's and Blake's story, but not the Kaylie and Chaz story or the wedding story. By the time I was finished (just took me a couple of days), I was a hot mess! I believe that's what makes an exceptionally talented author; he or she has the ability to suck you into the story, and this story was a tilt-a-whirl. The book is well written, and each of the stories blend seamlessly enough to call it a single book. It's smart, literate and sophisticated. Good job Melissa.
I bought this set because it was in the cheap section. The first book was OK, but I really got fed up on the second one. The whole thing reads like an extended scenario presented in a therapist training textbook. Maybe because one of the main characters was a therapist, which is only mentioned about every other page, and every character's thoughts are examined in the context of how the therapist would view them, and everyone ultimately goes with what the "correct" emotional response should be. We are told so often about how screwed up and illogical the younger sister is, but it's just not shown that way. All of the characters are just so one-dimensional. I just couldn't take another exposition about how proud they are of each other, how far they've come, and how much they all love each other. I started into the third book and realized that I could not read anymore.
This is the first series I have read from Melissa Foster. Her writing in third person was different. A lot of the series I read are first person. But let get in to this. Eldest sister the protector, her baby sister the spoiled brat that is use to getting her way, than the half sister that is just connected with them is a mix of both sisters. The men that come into their lives are just the right type to handle these handful women. The family drama is all so relatable with regular life and the spicy scenes are those that a normal couple would have. Not no too hot to image.
I really liked books 1&2 but book 3 was just too much childish drama back and forth. I really wanted to ring the necks of some of the characters. But I guess that's great writing when you feel something about the characters.
These books are the start to Melissa Foster's Love in Bloom Series. After reading her Whiskey series, i knew I had to go back and begin reading the whole series. While the story was good, I have to admit I am not as big of a fan of these books. None of the books were really stand alone and while I liked the character of Kaylie, Danica seemed to go from a strong woman in the first book to an insecure woman with low self esteem. Blake's transformation was also a little unbelievable for me.
But that being said, I still enjoyed the story and am continuing to binge read the rest of the series.
I enjoyed reading the Snow sisters trilogy by Melissa Foster. Sisters Danica and Kaylie, together with their heroes, went on a journey filled with angst, drama, and emotion for the sisters to get their HEA.
I loved the characters' progress during the three books, and the things they went through and thought were very relatable.
Melissa Foster's fluent writing style made the stories easy to read and very realistic. I felt like I was witnessing everything unfold in person.
These books aren't just about the romance but the characters growing and finding happiness and love. They are entertaining and emotional but will leave you with a smile.
The whole series had me captivated from start to finish. A worthwhile enjoyable read. Relatable stories. The emphasis was was taken off hearts & flowers and more focus was on the relationship hurdles each couple encountered, not only with there spouses but with their families. All the issues they had to work through, paved the way to honest bonds and solid relationships that were a joy to witness. I love the fact that despite all the complexities of each relationship, the chemistry between the couples are amazing and their sexy times are steaming hot quite real.
The three books together follow two sisters as they meet and fall in love with the men of their dreams.
But falling in love can be a nightmare too, especially when there's trouble in the family. Abandoned by their father when he left to live with and marry his mistress, both women have parent issues to work out before they will be ready to take the plunge. Add a step sister into the mix and other romances blooming around them and things can be quite explosive come wedding time.
Boxed set 1=3 Love In Bloom. A super great delightful read. Each sister has a book and it's a big emotional connection from one to the other. Dramatic, funny and hella angsty. Their stories are heart wrenching at times, full of passion other times and down right gritty with the feels.
I’m soo in love with the Snow Sisters! The books were beyond expectations and the fact the it showed the their stories with no only one but three books was fantastic! I want to point out that the second is a bit unnecessarily too long but anyway it was amazing! Just wish I could see the end of Michelle and Sally’s romances...
What a wonderful treat to follow the characters through all 3 books!!
I love the characters and the story behind each one in these books. By book three, I had trouble remembering where they all fit in. What an exciting set of stories that melded together so well. Kudos to the author. Can't wait I t to read more.
Another great set of books by Melissa Foster. Loved all the family problems and how they worked it all out. And if there really were guys like Chaz and Blake out there, how much better of a world it would be! On to the next set by Melissa!
Interesting creative characters all gorgeous and sexy. Hum. But love some of the insights of relationships. One. How each of our friends characters provide some special need in us. Totally takes place in this era. Freedom of employment and choices in life and careers. But even then those are not always easy decisions
When I read a book I like to feel like I know the characters. I've read three boy this author and I can truly say that I know these characters! I can't wait to continue with the Braden family.
3 books included in this set. Book one, great, loved it. Book 2, I did well enough. Book 3.....ugh. Had such a hard time following everything that went wrong, truthfully, I skipped ahead several times just to get to the end, and see the ending.
I love the Snow sisters! Danica is the one to think about everything and Kaylie is more jump in and think about consequences later. Glad thru found good guys to help center them. Can't wait to read Max story.
It was like no other series I have read as the author goes into such depth to characters actions and thoughts. Am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Wow what a book. All three of these book's were amazing. They had sisterly love and family drama. They were always looking out for each other. Meet perfect men and had amazing friends. Great book
I really enjoyed the snow sisters books. I do get a little annoyed with the female characters that took things a bit to far regarding stubbornness. I found myself thinking. Get over yourself. All and all though I enjoyed the sisters and their antics.
Had to keep reading to find out how the life of the Snow Sisters unfolded and was resolved! I hate series that go on and is used to get you to buy the next book so I was glad that the three came together. Looking forward to reading about Max and Treat!
I was happy to find this set of 3 books by Melissa Foster. It was just as good as all of her other work that I have read so far. If you haven't read any of her work this is an awesome way to get started.
There are quite a few characters in this book to keep track of, but each had their own lives and stories for us to explore. I'm anxious to read the next book in this series.
This series is a great read. I couldn't put them down. I can't wait to read about the love that Lacy and Dane find. I hope Max and Treat find each other too.
This is another Steamy, Sexy set of Ron/Coms from this Author!
In the third book, the female lead, Danica, is an extremely 'pita'! She over thinks everything and every situation. If you are just like her, GET PROFESSIONAL HELP!! Even the other characters recognize it!!
Started off with a bang. By the 3rd book, I was kinda over Danica babysitting her sister Kaylie, and over thinking everything. Sweet, sexy and well developed characters, but I found myself irritated with both sisters.
I have always loved Melissa Foster 's story and this 3 books didn't disappoint. I trust MF to take the story on a number of twists! Don't miss this series!
