Sincerely, Mr. Braden

Seth Braden (The Bradens at Ridgeport, Book 2)

Come along for the fun, sexy ride as this business-savvy, pleasure-oriented billionaire gets the shock of his lifetime and finds out his ever-efficient virtual assistant is not the man he thinks he is but a beautiful businesswoman who knows many of his secrets and has some of her own in Sincerely, Mr. Braden.

I run a multibillion-dollar retail conglomerate and pull strings most CEOs can only dream of. Winning is second nature. Chasing more is in my blood. My secret weapon? My virtual assistant of several years, Taylor Mitchell. He keeps my life in perfect order, and I trust him implicitly, which is why I gifted him a lavish weekend at my house on Saint Aurelle Island.

I didn’t plan on dropping by unannounced, but when the chance to finally meet him arises, I jump on it. Imagine my surprise when I find Taylor’s beautiful sister, Eleanor, in his place.

The moment I meet Ellie Mitchell, my world shifts.

What was supposed to be a brief hello with my buddy T turns into an unforgettable weekend with an incredible woman. I’ve spent a lifetime keeping people at arm’s length and walking away unscathed, but Ellie obliterates every wall I’ve ever built.

What I learn next shatters my world.

I don’t know which betrayal cuts deeper: The lie she told me or the truth that I still want her.

Hidden Love

loving love story. Lies are never good. working relationship can be hard when dependency becomes attachment . Happy ending.

Loved Seth and Taylor!

I read the book and liked it.

Just let me say that the audiobook brought Seth and Taylor’s story so much more everything.

This book narrated by Lee Samuels and Savannah Peachwood. They did an outstanding job with this story and it was like you were right there with them.

My angel. My goddess.My best friend.My everything.

I fell for Seth in the ebook, but the swoon is seriously amplified in audio!

Seth Braden is a workaholic billionaire who relies heavily on his assistant, Taylor, for everything. His buddy Taylor. The one he confides and texts in the odd hours of the morning.
The thing is that Taylor… is a woman. Since she doesn’t actually have to meet her clients to do her job, it works.
But what happens when they meet? Attraction and so much chemistry!

Instead of telling him the truth, she decides to pretend she's Seth’s buddy's sister, Eleanor. Which should be fine. Except Seth says and does all the right things and he opens up to her when he doesn’t to anyone, making her feel things she’s never felt before.
So much so that, not to lose everything, she leaves, knowing she’ll have to go back to being his PA and buddy, even if it hurts.
Until he tracks her down and she has to come clean.

Savannah Peachwood has become one of my favorites and she always excels when it comes to Melissa’s special brand of heroine. She perfectly portrayed Taylor’s vulnerabilities, her family issues and the ones with her past, her insecurities, her dreams, and yes, her strength.
Lee Samuels really helped get the swoon through in their interactions and in the ones with his family. Because Seth really is someone you fall in love with once you get to know him. And, well, I love it when the guy falls first, and that was beautifully done here. Unfortunately, I wanted to be able to differentiate between male characters, and he wasn’t able to do that for me. His female voice also needs a lot of work, in my opinion.

Seth feels betrayed, and Taylor herself is hurt. But they communicate. The way they’re there for each other and the way they listen were a major plus because both narrators conveyed so much feeling to their moments together. And heat! Because this may be slow burn, but when it happens, it really happens.

Heartwarming and heartfelt with relatable characters, this story was all about finding the right person, and I couldn’t stop listening.

This was released recently SO WHY WHY is this NOT IN DUET NARRATION.

This was a good story but there is no excuse for this not to be in DUET NARRATION. This may have been one of my favorite stories BUT I give the entire experience a “B” because of the nasty dual narration.

Mr. Braden

I love this story! I was waiting for Seth’s story and Melissa didn’t disappoint. I love all Melissa’s books. The narration was great!
I love how Seth found the garden Taylor had dreamed of for a long time. So sweet.
