This is my 3rd book of hers that I&#8217;ve read. Taken by Love didn&#8217;t disappoint. I could relate to the character Daisy. A high school outcast that held a small grudge against her hometown for making her teenage years rough. Then there&#8217;s tall dark and handsome Luke. He stepped in during High School to get others to leave her alone. When Daisy comes home to take care of her father&#8217;s farm sparks and soon flying. This is a light hearted read with lots of love. You will want to have this in your beach bag as you run to spend the day laying in the sun lazing the day a way. It&#8217;ll lift you up when you&#8217;re down and give you your faith back in humanity. Thanks Melissa for another great Braden story. I can&#8217;t wait for the next one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"clear: left; float: left; margin-right: 1em;\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00J2AWML4\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3722\/13890257055_09e0fb75ff_o.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\"><\/a><b>NEW RELEASE&#8230;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>THE BRAND NEW BRADEN COUSIN&#8217;S<\/b><br \/>\nBook #7 The Bradens, Love in Bloom Series #15<\/p>\n<p>TAKEN BY LOVE is the first of six hot, wealthy, and wickedly naughty Braden cousins, and the newest additions to the BRADEN series by New York Times &amp; USA Today bestselling and award-winning author Melissa Foster.<\/p>\n<p>Daisy Honey fled Trusty, Colorado, after years of battling rumors sparked by her gorgeous looks and lust-inducing name.
