Publisher Description

Cowboy Cal Hayden has loved Rachel Gray practically since the first time he set eyes on her. But Cal’s a careful, responsible man who knows better than to start a relationship before he can give it his all. He bided his time while caring for his family through his father’s terminal illness. Now his father is gone and his mother is settled, but has Cal waited too long to make his move?

What is a Flirt? 

The Love in Bloom big-family romance world has become so widely enjoyed, I have been asked by thousands of readers to write the stories of our beloved side characters. While I couldn’t possibly fit in writing full-length novels for each of them while maintaining my normal publication schedule, I’ve created flirts. Flirts cover twenty-four to forty-eight hours of two side characters’ lives on their path to their happily ever after, while also updating readers about their favorite main characters. Flirts vary in length and heat levels. I hope you love these quick, fun, sexy stories as much as I enjoy writing them.


If this is your first Love in Bloom story, then you have a whole series of loyal, sexy, and wickedly naughty heroes and smart, sassy heroines to catch up with. The characters from each family series within the Love in Bloom world cross into other family series and make appearances in future books so you never miss an engagement, wedding, or birth.

Elaine Watling ,

Loved it.

This is the first “flirt” from the Bradens of Peaceful Harbour. What is a flirt you ask? It’s a short story covering about 24 to 48 hours of a couple of the side characters in the full books and as a bonus we also get to spend time with our other main characters too. This books follows the story of hot, sexy and brooding Cowboy Cal Hayden and Rachel Gray. Cal has literally been in love with Rachel from the first time he saw her – think Love at First Sight and you’ll be right. Cal’s had a tough life and he’s a very careful and responsible guy and doesn’t feel that he can start a relationship with Rachel or any other girl before he get’s his life in total order. After his father dies from a terminal illness and now his mother is all settled he decides it’s time to finally make his move on Rachel, but has he waited too long??? What will happen when he does???? We also get to catch up with some of our other favourite friends. I loved this quick read and look forward to spending some more time with my other friend at Peaceful Harbour

Love it!

Yes! Loved this flirt! It’s quick and steamy. You just grab a bit of me time and you get the chance to read a quick love story in one sit and in complete Melissa style.
Rachel and Cal have been eyeing each other for years, but he just doesn’t make a move. When Rachel has had enough he knows he has to act fast or there will be no chance. See for yourself what happens next and enjoy getting reacquainted with some great Trusty couples from the past.
Definitely two thumbs up!

Love at last

This is a quick and easy read, that you could easily finish on the commute to work or school...or even finish it in your lunch break.
For everyone who has read Melissa’s books before you would be very familiar with Trusty, Colorado and all the characters that live there.
Cal and Rachel have always been in love with each other the flirting and words that they say to each other...has always been unsettlingly to each other until Cal decides it is the right time to express himself to Rachel...will not spoil it anymore.
This novel takes place over a 24-48 hour period Melissa calls the, flirt novel and I would have to say I love them they let you know update to people that you have fallen in love with over the years....so I will be going back to remind myself about the Braden’s some more. If this is your first Melissa Fosters novel then you will want to go back and read the rest of her series after you finish this flirt novel.
