Publisher's summary

Sweet with Heat: Seaside Summers features a group of fun, flirty, and emotional friends who gather each summer at their Cape Cod cottages. They're sassy, flawed, and so easy to relate to, you'll be begging to enter their circle of friends!

Nights at Seaside by Addison Cole is the "sweet edition" of New York Times best-selling author Melissa Foster's steamy romance novel Seaside Nights. The stories and characters remain the same, and convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.

In Nights at Seaside...Sky Lacroux has finally realized her dream and opened her own tattoo shop in Provincetown, Massachusetts. She’s happy as can be, preparing the shop for its grand opening and renting a cottage in the Seaside community while renovations to her new apartment are being completed. The only thing missing is the one thing she longs for, and has no control over - love.

Sawyer Bass, a professional boxer, plays his guitar at a local bar to escape the painful reality of his father’s deteriorating health and a recent health warning of his own. But when he spots a stunning brunette across the room, escaping reality goes out the window, and the beautiful woman becomes the focus of his next song - and maybe even the rest of his life.

When Sawyer walks into Sky’s tattoo shop and sees the woman from the bar - Sky - the chemistry between them is instant. Sawyer is everything Sky could ever hope for in a man. He’s honest, loving, sensitive, and potently virile - but boxing goes against everything Sky believes in. The closer they become, the more she realizes that her alpha boxer is waging his own emotional battle - only the battle she thinks he’s waging isn’t the one that threatens to tear them apart.

All Sweet with Heat novels are written to stand alone, so dive right in!

Definitely worth the listen!

A great story & a sweet romance.
This was the first story that I read/listened to in the series, and I didn't feel completely lost. It did give me the itch to read the others though.
Sky & Sawyer are both looking for something. And seem to find it in each other. They have to be able to get over their own personal hurdles to get to where they belong.
Listening to this story, brings the story to life and makes you truly feel the characters.
Loved the story! And looking forward to listening to the others.

Can Sky get over Sawyer's career?

Sky Lacroux’s dream of owning her own tattoo parlor has finally come true but she hasn’t been as lucky with her love life dream as her Seaside friends.

Sawyer Bass is a well know boxer who writes poetry & songs in his spare time. When he sings at a club that Sky & her friends are at, he feels a strong pull but does approach her because her friend Blue has his arm around Sky.
When Sawyer goes into Sky’s shop to get a tattoo, he finds out she is single & asks her out. Sky is unmistakably attracted to Sawyer but struggled with his boxing profession. Sawyer wants to retire because of several concussions but needs to win one more fight so he can fund his father’s Parkinson’s health problems.

Sky has a problem with Sawyer’s boxing but is she willing give up true love for her beliefs? This story sent my emotions all over the place but I have Parkinson’s so it hit a little too close to home. Every book in this series just seems to get better & better. Not only do we get Sky & Sawyer’s story but we catch up on all the Seaside friends.

The narrator, Melissa Moran did an awesome job bringing the story to life. Her voice inflections were amazing, I had no problem differentiating each character even though there were so many different people to voice.

A free spirit and a boxer - will it work?

Sky has finally realized her dream of owning her own tatto parlor - as the free spirit of the family it is the perfect thing for her. While tattooing she had come to tattoo quotes that she has attributed to the P-Town Poet.

Sawyer is a professional boxer who has one last big fight left and will then retire as he should have everything he needs financially to take care of his dad. In typical Sawyer fashion he decides he needs to add some ink to his collection and happens upon Inky Skies and Sky’s tattoo shop.

Read the heart-warming story to find out whether Sawyer and Sky are able to build themselves up together or tear themselves apart. You will really enjoy this new member of Seaside and the free spirit vibe and love of poetry that Sky brings to the story. The push and pull of the free spirit and the boxer throughout the novel is wonderful.

Melissa Moran does a great job of narrating and bringing the angst and love to life.

You will not be disappointed if you choose Nights at Seaside.

Great Story!

Sky Lacroux first sees Sawyer Bass at a night out with her friends and Sawyer sings this amazing original song he had written while Sky is reading a book of poetry. Fast forward and who walks into her tattoo shop but Sawyer Bass. Their chemistry is off the charts from the moment they meet. He notices her poetry book and he ends up asking her out. He tells her that his father is her favorite poet, C.J. Moon. They have an amazing evening but Sky finds out that Sawyer is a boxer and has issues with that. They also realize that they both have issues from the past they are dealing with, Sky with the death of her mother and Sawyer with the slow decline of his father from Parkinson’s’ disease. Sky Lacroux and Sawyer Bass, these two are amazing people individually but once they find each other they’re complete. They definitely want to be together but Sky needs to come to grips with Sawyer’s boxing career. These two continue to be together and Sky and the “seaside gang” and their friends go to watch a sparring match with Sawyer and another boxer. Things seem great until the other boxer gets in a cheap shot and it leaves Sawyer and Sky at odds. They circle back to each other and Sawyer has made a couple big life decisions and they finally move toward their HEA. In addition to Sky and Sawyer our seaside friends had a couple new babies to add to the family and more babies will be joining us down the road. I really liked this book because it kept going back to “made of the same cloth” and “destiny” and her store she named after part of her favorite poem which is actually one of Sawyer’s dad’s poems. I loved the line “You and I wear the scars of our lives in words and symbols.” This was an audio book narrated by the consistently great Melissa Moran. I always appreciate listening to books by Melissa Moran because I know she does an amazing job each and every time and this book was no exception. I was touched by this audio book because of the subject of Sawyer and his dad’s illness and I felt more connected to the story while listening to Melissa Moran narrating it.

Nights at Seaside

Everything is going good for Sky Lacroux. She's just about ready to open her own tattoo shop in Provincetown, MA. While the renovations are being completed, she's living in Seaside with the rest of her friends. There's very little missing from Sky's life. Well, that is, except for love. All that's about to change when she hears Sawyer Bass sing at an open mic night. His words speak to her soul. When they actually meet when Sawyer shows up at Sky's shop for a tattoo, they hit it off immediately. Then Sky learns that singing isn't his main profession. He's also a professional boxer.

Sawyer Bass has to remain focused on winning his next match in order to secure the funding required to care for his father ailing father. He doesn't have time for distractions. But when he meets Sky he knows that what they have is more than a distraction. That is, if he can get her to see past the violence of his job.

As always, Melissa Moran does a wonderful job with the narration. Especially here where we've begin moving past the original main characters of the series and into a new string of characters all ready for their own stories.

Readers (or listeners) of the series will know Sky as a secondary character in the last few books, and I think we've gotten a pretty good idea of her character already.

That's why, for me, Sawyer really was the highlight. I loved the dual sides of Sawyer. The tough fighter, and the soulful singer. Although the way Melissa Foster presents each facet of himself, you see that they are one and the same. You can be both tough and sensitive at the same time. It's not an either or situation.

The predicament that Sawyer finds himself in - that of fighting for his father's health, yet doing so causes Sawyer to overlook his own health - is another duality that Melissa Foster deftly deals with.

As much as I enjoyed revisiting all the previous main characters and getting updates, I enjoy seeing the potential new characters whose stories we'll, hopefully, get in the future. I know Sky's brothers for sure are in the mix, as well as Sky's best guy friend Blue. No matter how big the cast grows I like that it's always grounded in Seaside (at least for now). I did feel like Sawyer and Sky's story moved readers a little past Seaside, but I feel like we're never too far away.

Nights at Seaside is a favorite!

Melissa Moran nailed it as she narrates Addison Cole’s “Nights at Seaside”. This book has so many elements: family, friendship, compassion, fear, mystery and romance. This is the story of Sky Lacroux and Sawyer Bass. Sky is opening her own tattoo shop and while it is being remodeled she is renting Amy and Tony’s cottage at Seaside. Sawyer Bass is singing on stage in Provincetown and sees Sky from across the room. The next day he stops in the tattoo shop. He had no idea that Sky owns it. He asks her out and the relationship blooms but Sky has trouble with his real profession. This beautifully written story was hard to stop listening to. It evokes emotion as I found tears running down my face. You will want to dive in to this Addison Cole sweet romance.

"Set it free lovely. Come to me"

Nights at Seaside is written by Addison Cole and centers on a group of friends whose lives are intertwined in love and friendship. This book focuses on Sky Lacroux who owns a tattoo shop called Inky Skies. Sky is an independent young woman with a deep emotional soul who loves poetry and living her own life.

Her older brothers and her best friend, Blue keep a close watch over her which is often stifling to her. When she meets Sawyer Bass, those protective urges come out in force as Sawyer is a well-known boxer and they are concerned that she cannot handle what he does in the boxing ring. They are attracted to each other on a physical level at first but the more time they spend together, they realize they have a much deeper connection in their souls. As such, Sky struggles to reconcile the man she knows who loves poetry and music with the man who will put on gloves and step into the ring to fight.

Sawyer has his reasons for fighting and despite what he knows he should do to protect his health, he is driven by his love for his father to commit to one last fight. Sky knows she loves him but can she accept him fully?

This story has a bit more somber tone than some of Addison’s previous books but still bears her style of writing. It is a romantic story with just the right amount of heat, of humor and of family and friendship. Melissa Moran is the narrator and I liked her style. She is easy to listen to and does a good job of drawing the reader into the story line. I enjoyed the book and do not hesitate to recommend it and any of the others in her Seaside Summers Series.

Sky & Sawyer

The P-town poet is making Sky feel all sorts of emotion. Little does she know that she is about to meet and fall in love with him. Sawyer is in a rough life stage with an ailing parent and health issues. This story is one of choices, kindness and HEAs. The narrator is not as exciting as she could be BUT the story is one you don’t want to miss.....no matter how you read/listen to it.

Nights at Seaside is a work of art.

Nights at Seaside is a work of art. Addison Cole has created a beautiful watercolor that spans multiple canvases. Her delivery is like the sweetest melody. Not easily forgotten. Skye and Sawyer blend artistry and poetry to create an ever changing masterpiece. A metamorphosis of heartbreaking moments, life changing revelations and an enduring love. Melissa Moran takes this emotive coming of age journey and runs with it. Her's is a voice of hope that shines a light when times are at their most heart-aching. John Michael Montgomery said it best: "Life's a dance. We learn as we go!" It took a bit of practice, but Skye and Sawyer finally got it right.
