Trixie Jericho is on a mission to start her own miniature horse business. She’s sick of being told her idea is cute and wants nothing more than to be taken seriously.

Who buys a cottage in a New England fishing village on a whim? A stressed-out, twice-divorced romance writer and single mother looking for a fresh start, that’s who. Despite what my besties say about my three-year dry spell, I’m not looking for a man. Or drama. Or sex. I’ve got enough on my plate with writer’s block and a daughter who refuses to grow up. Community. That’s what I need. Unfortunately, it seems the universe has other ideas. Either Chatemup, Massachusetts, has a serious shortage of single women, or I’ve become a hot mess magnet for the male species.

My name is Adelaide Edington, and my life was mapped out for me before I even entered the world: who I'd date, where I’d attend college, what I'd be when I grew up. But there comes a time in everyone's life when they face a fork in the road. Should I go left, or should I go right? It didn't matter as long as I didn't remain stagnant any longer. Jett Stone opened me up to a whole new world, reminding me that it was okay to find my own way. I could have roots in Willow Springs and still spread my wings and fly. What I didn't expect was to fall in love with the broody football player.

#TEAMNIXIE
I’ve read the book as well as listened to the audiobook. Narrated by Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow who were perfect as Trixie and Nick, delivering the hotness that this couple truly is.
I don’t think I’ve enjoyed the beginning of a story as much as I did the first chapter of Nick and Trixie’s story. Tough, rugged, broody Nick Braden is completely dumbfounded by his reaction to his longtime friend and hottie, Trixie Jericho. He’s got a bad case of misplaced lust or so he thinks. When he witnesses her brother’s teasing over her dream of her own mini horse therapy business, he steps in and offers not only his assistance, but his home as well for one month.
So begins their journey. While Nick is the biggest challenge of her life she’s not afraid to go after him with all she’s got and poor Nick doesn’t stand a chance. I really loved the way their friendship blossomed and bloomed into so much more. This is where Melissa Foster excels. She creates characters that you genuinely care for and pull for, wanting their HEA as if it were your own.
Their story has something for everyone: lust, passion, humor, learning to cope with jealousy and of course LOVE! They go from friends with benefits to a true couple to more.
I will be honest, there were times I wanted to throttle Nick and his reasons for not getting involved or realizing he just might need more in his life than what he had, but overall it was fun watching him continue to fall for Trixie and the lengths he found himself willing to go.
Trixie for all her bravado and confidence was also sweetly vulnerable and so very likeable. She’s sweet without being sappy and adorable without being cheesy. I did cry but I won’t say where or why because I want you to discover that for yourself.
Run, don’t walk and definitely don’t delay and get Hot For Love. Warning - this is probably one of Melissa Foster’s hottest couples, like 5 alarm x 2 fire hot!

A Must Read/Listen Contemporary Romance
Hot For Love: Nick Braden by Melissa Foster is a contemporary romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow.
This is the seventh book in The Braden's and Montgomerys: Pleasant Hill - Oak Falls series. Each book can be read as a stand-alone.
I absolutely love Melissa’s books! They always leave you with a smile. You can’t help but fall in love with Trixie and Nick. I really enjoyed that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.
Savannah and Aiden did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I can't wait to listen to more of their work in the future.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves contemporary romances.

OMG!! I love Nick & Trixie!
Nick Braden and Trixie Jericho are best friends; however, she’s had feelings for him for years. She is the only person, other than family, that has invaded his personal space. No one outside of family stays at his ranch, except Trixie. When Trixie takes Nick up on his offer to stay with him for a month to help her get her horse therapy business off the ground, she is determined to put her crush for Nick behind her.
Nick trains horses and is a stunt rider. Since his brother’s wedding when he watched over a drunk Trixie a year ago, his feelings have change towards her. Everyone knows Nick is closed off to love due to a tragic accident that left two of his brothers heartbroken, but when he and Trixie take their friendship to the next level, the sparkles ignite! Slowly, she is tearing down the concrete wall that he’s had around his heart for years. Once he realizes how great of a couple they are, until he can say the words, he shows her by helping make her dream of owning a horse therapy business come true. When it’s time for her to return to Oak Falls, Nick must decide if a long distant relationship is really what he wants or if he will do anything to keep her with him and have the HEA he thought he’d never have.
A wonderful friends to lovers story! Nick and Trixie are a hot and steamy couple. Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood were excellent narrators!

Great story!!
This friends to loves book was a great tender read. Nick and Trixie have been friends for years with Trixie wanting more for a long time.
Trixie, wanting to start a new therapeutic mini horse business looks to Nick for help to start her dream and stays with him for a month to make that dream come true. Nick on the other hand has hidden his attraction to Trixie for a long time but after a devastating family loss has decided that love is not for him. Trixie breaks down his walls and he learns to love while letting the chemistry between them go off the charts.
In true Melissa Foster fashion, this book is loaded with family and their interactions as well as importance to the main characters. The characters from previous books in the series as well as characters from other series make appearances in Nick and Trixie's story letting a long time reader catch up with where the characters currently are.
This book was as great, tender read that I enjoyed from the start. The narration by Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow made for an enjoyable listening experience as the pair did a great job bringing the story to life.
Overall, this was a great book that I would recommend to others.

Trixie and Nick... so hot!
Audiobook Review: Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow are phenomenal narrators. They took the feisty, strong-willed Trixie and brought her spirit to life with their voices. The tough, alpha male Nick was made real through the tone and emotions of the narrator's voices. I had already read Melissa Foster's written version of Hot for Love. I thought I had a good understanding of their relationship but hearing the words gave me such a better understanding of Trixie and Nick. I love hearing their emotions and their feelings, the characters are brought to life as I listen.
eBook Review: Trixie Jericho is a spitfire. Growing up with only brothers she has always had to prove herself. Prove that she can keep up with the boys, prove that she can handle herself, and prove that she can follow her own dreams. Nick Braden, sigh, has offered Trixie his house as a home base for the next month to figure out what it will take to start her own miniature horse business. He has no doubt it will be hard to share his house with Trixie since he has been attracted to her and has had feelings for her forever.
I just have to say that I love, love, love these two together. They challenge each other, they push each other, and the trust each other. Nick pushes Trixie to start her business, purchase her horses, and make her dreams come true. Trixie pushes Nick to let people in, open up about his past, and to let her in. Both knew that they needed to find their happy ever after and knew that that happiness was dependent on them being together.
Their fights, their making up, and the loving was always exactly right. Neither lost their spunk by being together. They both stood their ground, opened their hearts, and fell into each other.

Hot for Love
"Don't you dare change a think about yourself. You hear me? You're nothing like those girls. You've got dirt on your boots, county in your roots, and more brains than all of them put together."
Hot for Love is a sexy and fun small town, friends to lovers romance.
Nick, a gruff and grumpy cowboy who would rather be around his animals than other humans, with the exception of one beautiful cowgirl who has been under his skin since he met her. Trixie, a strong and fierce cowgirl has had eyes for Nick forever but she is ready to give up on more than just friends until she tells him about her therapy horse business she wants to start and he offers for her to move in with him to get her business off the ground.
Nick and Trixie are hot, steamy, exciting and so much fun. I could picture being on the ranch with all of the animals while reading. I enjoyed getting the updates on some favourite characters. Melissa Foster always knows how to take you on an emotional ride while reading her books. I do not think there is a book that I have not had tears in my eyes at some point during the book. #TEAMNIXIE
"You wanted the fairy tale, darlin', and I don't know much about fairy tales, but I know this. There's no greater love than the one we're building, and nobody deserves to have their dream come true more than you."

Heartfelt!
Melissa has written another magical fun story! This one is the most heartwarming one yet! I loved it!
Nick Braden was a rancher, handsome, a trick rider and a horse trainer. He had gotten Trixie Jericho into his heart and couldn't get her off of his mind. Trixie was a woman that could do a man's job anyday. She was a daddies girl through and through and she had a crush on Nick. Trixie wanted to start a business with miniature horses for therapeutic for kids, nursing homes and hospitals. Nick was on board supporting the idea and offered to help her train the horses. She had gone to his ranch to stay for a month, then magic happened.
Narrators Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow created a fairytale with their voices. They were perfect together! You could connect with each character.

Darlin'... this was too good!
I LOVE going back to books I read a while ago (well, over two years ago, actually!) and listen to them.
Because Nick and Trixie are absolutely perfect and one of my favorite Melissa Foster couples, but hearing them come to life with Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood… It brought back all the initial emotions! And I remember feeling like I was part of the story back then—even more now!
Nick is a dream. He's broody, sexy, protective, supportive, he loves animals, he's fire in the bedroom (and in the shower, and in the kitchen, and probably anywhere else). And he gives all of himself to the people he loves.
Trixie... I want to be her. I love that she's not a pushover. I love that she knows what (and who) she wants and she goes for it. I love how strong she is, and how sure she is. She is a badass.
And the two of them together... They’re perfect.
Sparks fly, panties melt, hearts swell... but that's not all. They bring out the best in each other. They are both strong-willed and stubborn, but they have this incredible connection and nothing is going to break it up. They complement each other in every way, and they are together while still being themselves.
This book made me happy the first time I read it. Listening to it brought a huge smile to my face. Savannah has a perfect inflection that is loving and full of sass, just like Trixie.
And Aiden saying “darlin’”... well, let’s just say it works!
If you’re a fan of small town, friends to lovers, and friends who have been pining for each other for years—have a listen.
You won’t regret it!

Emotional and steamy make for a great story!
I listened to the audio version of this book. This story was highly emotional (especially at the beginning) and pretty steamy. It is a friends to lovers trope that starts out with Nick offering Trixie a place to stay while she tries to work out starting her own business--one involving miniature therapy horses.
Nick has definitely put Trixie in the friend zone...until he doesn't. He's had a rough start in life and only views loving someone as the path to destruction. Trixie is determined to show him that's not the case. She turns him every which way but loose and soon he's having to rethink some things.
I really enjoyed this audiobook narrated by Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow. I was totally into both characters and their relationship.
I was gifted a copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.

Hot for Love is HOT in Audio!
Trixie Jericho and Nick Braden have been friends for years. Trixie often visits Nick who lives a couple hours away when she has business in the area. This time Trixie is staying with Nick as she learns more about miniature therapy horses as it has been her dream to provide this service. Nick has also been Trixie’s crush for years. I love a good friends to lovers story and Melissa Foster has provided a riveting one. There is a slow build throughout as Trixie and Nick explore their feelings. This author is a master at building anticipation till the very end. The smooth voice Savannah Peachwood and sexy voice of Aiden Snow were combustible as they brought Melissa Foster’s words to life. I found myself lost in the characters while listening. Kudos to all.
