The Remingtons are a series of stand-alone romances that may also be enjoyed as part of the larger Love in Bloom series.

Ellie Parker is a master at building walls around her heart. In the 25 years she's been alive, Dex Remington has been the only person who has always believed in her and been there for her. But four years earlier, she came to Dex seeking comfort and then disappeared like a thief in the night, leaving him a broken man.

Dex Remington is one of the top PC game developers in the United States. He's handsome, smart, and numb. So damn numb that he's not sure he'll ever find a reason to feel again.

A chance encounter sparks intense desires in Ellie and Dex. Desires that make her want to run - and make him want to feel. A combination of lust and fear leads these young lovers down a dangerous path. Is it possible to cross a burned bridge, or are they destined to be apart forever?

Love Game of Love

This was a great story. I loved the characters. They reminded me of friends of my past. BJ Harrison narrates again and does a great job with New York accents. He made the story enjoyable to listen to.

Great book

Dex Remington has been Ellie Parker's safe place since they were kids. To this day he still leaves his window open for her. Ellie grew up in foster care and lots of insecurities. With Dex's help she is able to trust and be loved the way she deserves to be. Melissa Foster gets better and better with each book. BJ Harrison did another amazing job with the narration.

My Thoughts on Game of Love

What seemed like a pairing of two very unlikely people made for a sweet and steamy romance. I loved Dex from beginning to end. He was an amazing friend, boss, son and ultimately match for Ellie. I was saddened by everything Ellie went through in her past, even most recently. But I loved the connection it established between her and Dex.

This was a great kick off to what I expect will be a fantastic series. The experience of listening and reading at the same time was perfect. The narrator did a good job of giving each character a new voice and did a really good job with both male and female voices.

I look forward to reading and listening to many more stories by this author.

Game of Love!

This was my first Melissa Foster's book. I love it! This is a good second chance love story. I love the two main characters Dex and Elie. Dex is amazing! I was hooked by this book from the first page until the end. I already like The Remington family and can't wait to listen to the next book in this Series. This was my first listen to B.J. Harrison and the narration was very great. I'm looking forward for more stories by this author. I received this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

I did enjoy the narrator of the book. I found my attention was held through out the entire book.Great job by Melissa Foster again (my favorite author) and B.J. Harrison for great narration!

Several years later, she looked Dex up while she was in New York and they spent the weekend together.

This is truly a wonderful story of love, trust and commitment.
