About this listen

Luke Adler lives for his ranch. It’s the only reason he agreed to get on board with his sister’s grand plan for guests staying on the property. Nothing prepares him for the force of nature that is Samantha Morrison. When she arrives on his ranch to help construct this new part of his business, what he expects and what he gets are two entirely different things.

He expects a no-nonsense business. Straightforward and simple. What he gets is a sunshine smile, sweet sass, and a woman who pushes every button and boundary he has. He tries to ignore the draw, the urges she makes him feel. But when she gets close, he only wants her closer. She makes him question his decisions, his thoughts, and the idea that being alone is best for him. Even when they are consumed by the fire between them, he knows they come from two different worlds and he has to let her go. But when the time comes, can he do that? Can he live without her sunshine to warm his cold heart? Or can this cowboy learn a new trick?

Author's Note: Heat and heart fill this book as our heroine learns to ride a horse and tame a grumpy cowboy in rural Alberta.

OMG! Luke and Sammy are everything!

"𝑰 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒐𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒃𝒓𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒚𝒐𝒖. 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒏𝒆𝒅 𝒎𝒚 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒖𝒑𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝒅𝒐𝒘𝒏, 𝒚𝒆𝒕 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒉𝒐𝒘 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒕 𝒂𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆. 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒍𝒆 𝒎𝒚 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕, 𝑺𝒂𝒎𝒎𝒚. 𝑰𝒕'𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓."

SUNSHINE & SAMMY is Luke and Sammy's story, the fifth book in the Vested Interest: ABC Corp series.

OMG! Luke and Sammy are the definitions of grumpy and sunshine and I couldn't get enough of them.

Sammy accepts a job to help a ranch change its business to turn it into a destination location. Upon arriving at the ranch, Sammy is greeted by Luke, a sexy but extremely grumpy cowboy. As they start to work together on the plan for the ranch, things heat up between them, but Luke's past refuses to let him trust.

I fell in love with Luke and Sammy from the very beginning of the book. The tension between them is so thick. Luke has been hurt in the past which makes him grumpy and un-trusting. Sammy is all sunshine and determination. Luke and Sammy are perfect together, with amazing banter, laugh-out-loud moments, tears in my eyes and my heart bursting with love. I also love the extended family and that we got to see most of them. I can not wait for what is next.

John Lane and Maxine Mitchell were the perfect selections for Luke and Sammy. They did a fantastic job bringing not only the characters but the entire story to life.

SUNSHINE & SAMMY and contains... small town, grumpy/sunshine, opposites attract, friends with benefits, dual first-person point of view.

Mega Feels & Super Swoon

You best be prepared for the mega feels and super swoon that this amazing romance has headed your way. Sammy and Luke are absolutely impossible to resist and their obvious attraction and chemistry has you almost instantly attached and invested. These two certainly make a sweet & spicy couple that will have you laughing, sighing, in desperate need of your favorite ice-cold beverage and ultimately leave you just a heart melted, sappy puddle. This book is simply so much fun with an abundance of heart and humor. Don't let that fool you though because it can also tug firmly on your heartstrings, whenever it wants to. This book offers dual narration which I prefer. The performances were excellent and I felt the voices matched the characters really well.

Great narration for a wonderful story

Melanie Moreland has delivered a breath of fresh air with Sammy and Luke’s emotional love story. This is grumpy/sunshine small town romance at its best and it will certainly appeal to a wide range of audiences.
I was drawn in from the first few pages and there was no putting down until the final words had been read, it’s a wonderful addition to the Vested Interest: ABC Corp Series with characters you will fall hook, line and sinker for.

John Lane and Maxine Mitchell really brought the characters and their journey to life, they were spot on with the narration and I really felt the love and emotion.

Sammy is Van and Olivia’s daughter and just like her parents this girl knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to do what is needed even if that means walking away…. Luke is a rugged cowboy not looking for love until Sammy turns his world upside down, so will this couple who are like oil and water build a future or will past relationships ruin any chance they have. This is an entertaining yet emotional read that I adored and I highly recommend you all one click this beautifully written love story.

Loved this audiobook!

I will read anything Melanie Moreland writes, but I especially love this second generation series. It is so fun to see favorite characters from previous books and their kids stories now that they are all grown up.

Sammy is planning on working with Luke and his sister on their business. Neither expected to be so drawn to each other. It was fun watching them fall for one another. They come from two different worlds, but they form a strong connection with undeniable chemistry between them.

This story was fun, entertaining, sweet, steamy, and more. Melanie's writing is engaging and easy to read and flows well in audiobook form. She did an excellent job creating characters I loved and a story that hooked me from the beginning. I can't recommend this book and series enough!

Grumpy and Sunshine is perfection.

This book is so romantic, with all the feels and all you need to fall in love with them. Grumpy/Sunshine is getting a place in my list of favorites tropes. This time Sammy is the sunshine, the light in the live of Luke. Luke is the grumpy sexy cowboy, really grumpy but Sammy like a ray of sunshine with her smiles and light break all his walls. Reading this book takes you to that Ranch in Alberta you can feel the breeze and all the love. Van and Liv are still so in love that is amazing to witness. It’s so good, Luke and Sammy are for each other. Sammy with all her smiles captured all of him. “She smiled, sunshine and Sammy all rolled up together.” Amazing Epilogue as always.
The audiobook is amazingly Perfect! John Lane as Cowboy was perfect. Maxine brings Sammy and all those emotions to live. Perfect performance.

Swoon.

This book is sweet with likable characters. I laugh, smile, giggle at the banter between Luke and Sammy. I’m so ready to visit a ranch so I can meet a cowboy after reading this book. This author writes story that are like magic, her books always put me in a good mood and brighten up my day. I love that in this story the author touches on a subject that most romance books don’t write enough about and she writes it in such a sweet way. Also, one of the best epilogue I’ve read in a while.

This one is a Must Listen

I am loving the BAM series and Sammy & Sunshine is such a beautiful addition to this series. I loved the story when I read it but fell more in love with the characters and the story after listening the audiobook. The experience is at a different level. I was literally hooked and really enjoyed listening to the story. I have listened to both John Lane and Maxine Mitchell and these two are absolutely phenomenal. They gave life to Sammy and Luke’s characters . There narrations were on point, they were able to convey all the feelings and emotions of the characters .

This is a very beautiful sunshine/grumpy plot, Sammy comes to renovate Luke ranch which he is owns it with his sister. From the moment these two meet there is an attraction but Luke doesn’t want anything and he pushes Sammy. I loved how Sammy was strong and Luke was not ashamed of apologizing when he didn’t behave or was rude to her.

The story was captivating and beautifully written and the narrator made a joy to listen. It was full of heart , heat , feels and so much joy . It was a totally delight to listen to this story.

Great story and great narration


I am loving this next generation series; Sunshine & Sammy (I adore this title) was a fabulous addition to what has quickly become one of my favourite series. This time we have Olivia and Van’s daughter Samantha (Sammy) Morrison in the spotlight and the man who wins her heart, Luke Adler.

Luke lives for the ranch that he and his sister Rachel own and the last thing he needs is to be attracted to Sammy, the woman who explodes into his life when she arrives to help construct part of their new business venture. I have to say their interactions made me smile as she sent Luke into a spin, disrupting his well ordered and planned out life.

From the first paragraph to the last I was drawn into the story that Ms. Moreland wove and read this book in almost one go. I fell hard and fast for Luke, he ticked all the boxes for me and you cannot help but be drawn to Sammy’s vibrant personality. John Lane's performance of Luke was spot on in my opnion; he brought the character to life for me . Maxine Mitchell's voice is always easy to listen to and she too was spot on as Sammy. Together they were so easy to listen to and they wuickly had me riveted to the story.

The push and pull dynamic of their relationship made for entertaining reading and I was sad when the book ended.
