After months of long-distance communication, actress Parker Collins and artist Grayson Lacroux finally plan to reconnect in the seaside town of Wellfleet, Massachusetts. But Parker never shows, and weeks pass without a word, leaving Grayson to believe he's misinterpreted their budding relationship.

Parker has been running on autopilot ever since she lost her friend, mentor, and the only family she's ever known, Bert Stein. Armed with junk food, tequila, and her big, lovable dog, she's prepared to hole up and mourn - and determined to mend a fence Bert had never been able to with his estranged and bitter brother. But Parker didn't count on the sinfully hot artist she's been fantasizing about for nearly a year walking in on her grief-induced drunken night.

When Grayson stumbles across Parker, he has no idea what to make of the gorgeous blonde who blew him off despite the heat sizzling between them. But that doesn't stop him from feeling protective of the woman who's consumed his thoughts for months, and when he learns of Parker's plans to confront an angry old man, he refuses to leave her side. As Parker's past unfolds, they're led on an unexpected journey of discovery. Their connection deepens, and late-night fantasies become passionate realities, until good intentions spark painful secrets, threatening the love they've found.

I am beginning to think I sound like a broken record but Melissa Foster hit yet another grand slam with the latest in her Seaside series, Seaside Lovers. I love that we get the integration of all of the characters from Seaside that we have grown to love over the life of this series in each new book too. Just when I thought I couldn’t possibly make room for yet another book boyfriend, enter Grayson Lacroux. He nuzzled his way onto my list of top 10 all-time book boyfriends in a very sexy way. Problem is each new hero Melissa writes about, seems to bump another from my top 10. Well, I guess that’s not really a problem, is it?  There is just so much to love about Grayson. From the moment he enters Parker’s life, you just know sparks will fly and that they are going to be a great couple. They have such unbelievable chemistry and have already developed somewhat of a friendship through email for almost the whole last year because they’ve been working on a project together for Parker’s charity. Parker (Polly) Collins is an A-list actress who is lying low in Cape Cod after the death of her dear friend. Even though the events that lead Parker to her standard grief relief of tequila, chocolate and horror movies is sad; Grayson coming by and immediately stepping in to be the shoulder she needs and telling her he would have been with her through the loss of her friend if he had known, is just undeniably swoon-worthy. As their relationship grows and progresses, he says things to her that will make your heart race, like “I’m so lost in you” or “I want to be your more”. How can you not fall in love with him right along with Parker? One of my favorite scenes in the book is when Grayson goes over to Parker’s and upon seeing her shirt hands her $10. She was wearing a Mustache Rides $5.00 shirt. I just loved that!!! I thought it was adorable because it took her a minute to catch on to what he was doing. Grayson’s mantra throughout the book of telling Parker to stop overthinking everything is such great advice. Especially as they are falling in love and trying to figure out the long distance that will separate them once she goes back to her acting career. I think he has some of the best lines of any of Melissa’s male leads to date. Besides the two I mentioned above, there are many more like “I see who you are and I like who I see.” And “Every day I learn more about you and fall in love with you all over again”. Seriously I needed tissues nearby for some of these scenes they made me so happy. He is so sensitive, loving and fiercely protective, that you cannot stop yourself from falling in love with him. It doesn’t hurt that he is gorgeous and the sex is steamy. I just adore this couple!! And can I also just say how much I love that big lovable dog, Christmas!!
I wish I could see a picture of the ring Grayson made because it sounds stunning and I would really love to see it.
Another fantastic addition to this series! You will love Grayson but even more importantly you will love Grayson & Parker together (Oh and Christmas too).

5.0 out of 5 stars The Chunky-Dunking Girls are Back!

I feel like I've been waiting forever for this book to come out! After I got hooked on the Seaside Summers series, I have eagerly awaited the new books in this series more than the other series. Part of this is because I love books that are set during summertime and Melissa Foster writes her descriptions of Seaside, Provincetown, and Wellfleet so well that I feel like I'm there, smelling the salty ocean air. The other reason I love this series so much is because I feel like I can relate to the all of the chunky-dunking girls. I find them hilarious and feel I could be friends with all of them. Seaside Lovers was everything I hoped to read in a Seaside Summers book and then some!

Parker (Polly) Collins is a movie star and America's sweetheart who divides her time between Los Angeles and Wellfleet, Massachusetts. Parker has never known family since her mother died when she was a year old and the closest person she has to family has recently passed away. Parker is understandably mourning his death by means of lots of junk food, tequila, and horror movies. Grayson Lacroux, a local artist who is designing parts of her house on the bay, catches her after she has inhaled copious amounts of chocolate and alcohol. The two have been exchanging emails for many months regarding Grayson's designs but this is the first time they've met face-to-face. Grayson turns out to be helpful to Parker in many ways and the two can no longer deny their steamy attraction toward one another. As the two grow closer, they have to figure out if their relationship can withstand the distance and difference in lifestyles.

As always, Melissa Foster has written another amazingly hot novel about a woman who could be a next-door neighbor with real life problems and insecurities and a sexy guy who not only makes me want to drool but also is caring and compassionate. I was delighted to read that Bella and all of the Seaside girls and their families appear in this novel on more than one occasion! I recommend reading all of Melissa Foster's books and if you are interested in the Seaside Summers series, I'd suggest starting with the first book, Seaside Dreams and continuing on in chronological order since I feel the series would be most enjoyable that way. I loved this book and can't wait for more!

This book is such a lovely summer story! Grayson and Parker are a sexy engaging couple with some Grey's Anatomy's moments. Their elevator scenes are great, super McSeaside! Once again Melissa Foster has given us a complete story romance, grief, sexy and a lot of feelings that complement each other and give a great reading.
I recommend this book to everyone!

This is another great Melissa Foster book that has a large basis on grieving and how it affects us in different ways and how different people in our lives help us deal with our sadness. The two main characters are both such great individuals but amazing as a couple. This story shows how a friendship can blossom and then how love can blossom from that friendship. This book may make you cry and also laugh but it will definitely make you feel. These two characters have now become some of my favourites from Melissa's books
