5 STARS – Readers Favorites “Melissa Foster has proven again that she is a fantastic storyteller, excelling at making seemingly simple stories complex and heartfelt.”
Wyatt Armstrong never imagined that instead of celebrating his college graduation, he and his twin sister would be dealing with the death of their parents. Then again, Wyatt had never been one to think past tomorrow. He heads to their summer home in Harborside, Massachusetts, with his best friend Cassidy Lowell in tow, to deal with his parents’ death and to try to figure out his next step. Six foot two, infuriatingly handsome, and flirtatious, Wyatt Armstrong has always been there for Cassidy, helping her pass her classes and fend off unwanted advances, while driving her insane with his one-night stands—but that’s what best friends are for, isn’t it? Having each other’s backs. There was never any doubt that she would accompany him to his family’s summer home—but she never expected to begin seeing Wyatt as more than a friend. Or has she been ignoring her feelings all along? It’s impossible to ignore the sizzling heat between them as Wyatt and Cassidy get even closer, but Cassidy knows Wyatt’s past, and she has a real job to begin in the fall. Wyatt may be a sure thing for the summer, but Cassidy needs more. For the first time in his life, Wyatt is forced to look toward the future if he doesn’t want to lose the one woman who’s shared his past and owns his heart.
*** HARBORSIDE NIGHTS is a sexy, hot, and evocatively real New Adult Romance series that follows a group of friends who have known one another for years as “summer” friends, and now come together after college to build their lives. They’re tough, edgy, and accepting—most of the time. This series is written in the loving, raw, and emotional voice readers have come to love by New York Times & USA Today bestselling, award-winning author Melissa Foster.

Review- 5 Stars
I am in love with this new series and all the characters in
it. I grew to love Wyatt and Cassidy in this one, even though Wyatt was a
playboy at first. The way that Melissa writes is so enthralling that you never
want to put the book down. I can never get enough of Melissa's books.
Wyatt and Delilah are friends with Cassidy and have been their whole lives. Growing up, Cassidy felt like their mom was more of a mom to her than her own. When an unfortunate tragedy strikes Wyatt and Delilah, Cassidy feels the pain just as much as they do. Cassidy wants to be there for Wyatt and Delilah because they are so close, but strong feelings for Wyatt leave Cassidy questioning what is going on in their relationship. Cassidy and Wyatt both feel the pull towards each other and wonder why these feelings are coming out now and never have before.
Cassidy helps Wyatt at their families bar and when feelings that are too strong for either one of them to ignore surface again, they both realize that it is time for them to talk through what they want to do as far as a relationship goes. I love the way that Wyatt values the friendship that he and Cassidy have. Wyatt makes sure that both he and Cassidy are sure about a relationship beyond friendship before they pursue anything further.
With a looming decision for Cassidy to make with the job offer in NY, my heart was breaking for her to have to choose between the job and Wyatt. I am so glad that she made the decision that she did. (Not going to give it away.) This story does have a happy ending for these two and I can't wait to see if we see more of them and what becomes of their relationship in the next books in the series. This story just flowed so freely and I loved it!!
