She Loves Me is the third book in the Harmony Pointe series by Melissa Foster. We have met the other Dalton siblings in the past books and some if not all, have already gotten their books. I need a family tree asap. Piper is Dahlia's sister from Love Like Ours, which happens to be one of my favorite MF book.

Unlike the two previous books in the series, this one was not a winner for me. There was something that wasn't clicking and I am afraid that it was Piper aka the heroine. She wasn't a bad person, but I found myself thinking that she seemed to not be able to decide on a single thing and she was very black and white about most of the things in her life. Harley is the grey she needs in her life. Even the epilogue which could have been very sweet otherwise was ruined by her train of thoughts. I am not a fan of characters who are either way up or way down and she was like that. The words middle ground were not in her vocabulary and it made me enjoy the book a little less. Harley also has some issues but he seemed to be able to work them out and be a person I would want to be in a relationship with. He was patient and caring and I liked him from the previous book(s) in which he appeared.

My main issue was with Pipper as you just read and the rest were not very important. I read the book fairly quickly and the story flew nicely. The other thing that really bugs me is that Harley is on the cover, while I feel that it should have been Piper. I would recommend the book with some hesitation.

In case anyone wonders, Piper dated Harley's brother, but they did not sleep together and there is no ow/om drama.

She Loved Me is the third instalment in Melissa Foster’s Harmony Point series and follows the ups and downs Harley Dutch (a rough and tumble bar owner) and Piper Dalton (a tough as nails construction worker, yep you read right!), on their road to romance. Harley and Piper have known each other and been best friends for years, but what Piper hasn’t realised, is she has always held a special place in Harley’s heart. An unfortunate accident gives Harley the opportunity he needs to finally show Piper that a romance between them is definitely plausible, but it won’t be easy going to crack her emotional walls. I loved Harley and would happily take him home myself, however, even though I could understand some of Piper’s issues surrounding romance, her character was difficult to like or warm to. I enjoyed the overall concept and storyline of this book but struggled to see piper and Harley as a good fit. An average read for me, simply based of the female lead.

4.25 stars--SHE LOVES ME is the third instalment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult HARMONY POINTE erotic romance series-a spin off form the author’s Sugar Lake series. This is former Wall Street investor /bar owner Harley Dutch, and construction worker Piper Dalton’s story line. SHE LOVES ME can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Harley and Piper) SHE LOVES ME follows the best friends to lovers relationship between former Wall Street investor /bar owner Harley Dutch, and construction worker Piper Dalton. Harley Dutch has been secretly in love with his best friend Piper Dalton for as long as he can remember but Harley’s brother Marshall destroyed our heroine’s heart years before, and Piper has never been able to overcome the betrayal and hurt. When Harley gets injured at work, Piper finds herself looking after her best friend, along with his two young nieces, and the ice around her heart begins to slowly melt. What ensues is the building romance between Harley and Piper, and the potential fall-out as Piper refuses to commit to a happily ever after.

Harley Dutch knows Piper Dalton is the only woman he will ever love but convincing Piper she is worthy of his love takes patience and time. Piper doesn’t do relationships or commitment, and continues to struggle with one past heart break that destroyed her faith in forever and men.


The relationship between Harley and Piper is a best friends to lovers that is threatened by Piper’s inability to let go of the past. One heart breaking betrayal has controlled her future in that she refuses the possibility of marriage and family. Harley is flirty and playful, and his attraction to Piper is threatened by ghosts form the past. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative. The sexual chemistry is palpable, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, there is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including several from the aforementioned Sugar Lake series, as well as Piper’s brother Ben and Aurelia (Call Her Mine #1), Mason and Remi (This is Love #2), Harley’s sister Delaney, and her daughters Sophie and Jolie: Piper’s sisters Talia, Willow (Zane), and the introduction of Harley’s brother Marshall.

SHE LOVES ME is a story of family, friendship, betrayal and love; of heart break and recovery; of love, loss, and acceptance. The premise is emotional and engaging; the romance is seductive and passionate; the characters are charismatic and dynamic. SHE LOVES ME is an encouraging and spirited look at family and friends.

She Loves Me is another FABULOUS story in the Harmony Pointe series. You absolutely do not need to read the previous books before jumping in to Piper and Harley's story! I've been waiting (probably along with everyone else!) for Piper to find her guy and I'm beyond excited that Harley didn't give up on her! She is one tough cookie and puts up a heck of a fight to not fall in love. Give it up, girlie. This is Harley Dutch, with a terrible wingman, a 12" meat lovers, and a panty melting smile...and he's going to take your walls down one brick at a time

We catch back up with the Daltons and their significant others and we meet-and fall in love with-Harley's family as well. Harley has some deep wounds that are ripped open and Piper is right there with her not-so-sappy, hardcore support. This is not your typical love story, that's for sure. I don't think I've ever met a character so determined to fight Cupid's arrows (or her mother's potions!) and while I love Piper's strength and kiss-my-ass attitude, I love when she falls even more! She's a fighter to the very end!

Harley has been on the sidelines forever, watching over Piper and keeping his heart protected-just like Piper does hers. Even when they venture into their crazy coupledom, he keeps his heart guarded and really fights for her love and her heart. I freaking love that SO MUCH! I love that he wasn't like most of the heroes we see and sex wasn't just sex for him. It was meant to be something more. And holy hotness, it ended up being sooooo much more!!

There was a point in the story where I wanted to reach through and throttle her for not budging and letting it all get ripped apart. But, yeah, after an amazing sugar binge and meltdown, she totally nailed the comeback. And just when you think you have it all figured out and it's going to be a happily ever after...it gets happier!!!

2.5 stars

She Loves Me is book 3 in the Harmony Pointe series and it was an ok read for me. Unfortunately I'm beginning to think that maybe this author just isn't for me. While I loved Harley and his determination to finally make Piper his, I couldn't connect with Piper at all. I did enjoy them together at times but overall like book 2 the story was cheezy and boring. I feel these stories are to long and with nothing happening I lose interest by the 50% mark.

"I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own."

What a ride! I felt so many emotions reading this book, I can’t even comprehend! I was happy, laughing, cheering for the couple, and then I was angst, a little mad and sobbing (and not for the couple!). What a wonderful work Melissa did!

I love the Dalton family, I wish mine was like them! And Piper did not disappoint. Actually, she is my spirit animal! She is tough, smart, stubborn, comfortable in her own skin and straight forward. What I like the most about her, is that she also has some vulnerabilities that only a few people know and understand. She doesn’t want to be married and have kids, but not because she hate them, but because she think she would be good at. Her biggest fear? Someone try to change her, like so many tried. Don’t we all want to be loved for who we are?

Harley is Piper’s best friend and in love with her for a long time. He’ll also do whatever it takes to love and protect his family. And let me say, his family went through hell, from his father disease and death, to his sister sickness and the whole Marshall, his brother, mess. He is responsible, caring, super fun, a huge patience and focus on his goals.

He is also very vocal of his feelings and it’s super sweet, but once he has a ankle injury he decided to get off of Piper’s friend zone! And it was super fun to read their road to love, their banter and her realizing that she loved him as well. Not even going to start with their chemistry, it was off charts. And Harley had the BEST dog ever, Jiggs, this award is for you. I love you.

Other worth mention moments: Piper’s father speech about people change it’s so inspiring and I think everyone should read this. Marshall story was so heartbreaking, I was so emotional, what a turnover of events. This one changed the game.

I loved the ending, so deserving and I was left feeling fulfilled. I laugh a lot with Piper claiming she made a mistake and the reactions of everyone, so good! And Melissa also gave a good kickstart for what it will probably be her next series, the Dark Knights

Piper is the last of the Daltons to get her Happily Ever After and I have been waiting for her and Harley to get together. Harley finally gets Piper after years of wanting her! If you have been reading The Sugar Lake Series or the Harmony Pointe Series you will remember Piper and Harley are friends, good friends. Harley has been trying to get Piper to go out with him for a while but she keeps shooting him down thinking he's only joking around....little does she know he's dead serious! If you haven't read any of the books in either series before now is the perfect time to start because each book can be read as a standalone.

Harley Dutch is a stand-up guy, he is running the family bar after his fathers passing as well as helping his sister raise her girls after her husband split years earlier. He's always doing for others but there is one thing that he has wanted for himself, Piper Dalton, his best friend, a woman so strong and independent she doesn't need anyone for anything. Piper has erected a barrier around her heart made of steel and she is determined not to let anyone near it again, one heartbreak was enough for a lifetime, which is why Harley has been relegated to the FRIEND ZONE!

Melissa Foster did a wonderful job with bringing these two out of the friend zone and into coupledom. I love the chemistry between Harley and Piper and I really enjoyed the way everyone could see what was between them before anything actually happened. Roxie wins MOM OF THE YEAR, she is one of the best characters I've come across that the book doesn't revolve around and I think we should have a novella of Roxie and Dan.....pretty please!!!

I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys Contemporary Romance or the Friends-to-Lovers Trope.

Happy Reading!!!

Melissa Foster has a way of continually topping one emotionally perfect story with another! With book three in her Harmony Pointe series, she delights fans again with Piper Dalton's story. We've seen her siblings fall in love and now it's her turn!

Piper is delightful. She's tough and can hold her own with any guy on one of her construction sites, but she is tender and sweet when life calls for it ... just don't let it get out!

Harley won our hearts quickly because not only is he her best friend, but he's obviously been in love with her for years and just biding his time until he thought she was ready to be able to handle the knowledge.

I highly recommend this story and the entire series to anyone who loves a close knit family and friend foundation behind each couple as they work through the road blocks towards their happily ever after. Always packed with emotions and entertaining!

First and definatley not the last Melissa Foster book. Although this is the 3rd in a series it can definitely be read as a standalone.
Wow this story was Hot!!! Piper is a hard nut to crack. She works in the construction industry and after a previous broken heart has learnt how to adapt and make sure no one hurts her again. She acts like one of the guys and doesn't take any nonsense. Harley owns the local bar and has been in love with Piper (his best friend) for years scaring off all her potential dates telling her they are no good for her. He injures his foot and his mum asks Piper to pick him up from the hospital. She takes to the role of nurse with her usual hard as stone approach but helps look after Harley and his 2 nieces who are staying with him while his sister recovers from breast surgery. Fed up of tip toeing around the elephant in the room Harley admits he's got feelings for her which Piper finds scary as hell.
I love a friends to lovers romances it's one of my favourite tropes and this was so well written it was instantly absorbed. I love how spunky Piper is and Harley is so patient with her, her brash ways only make him love her more. The side story that surrounds Harleys family dramas kept me interested so it wasn't all focused on the love story. There were alot of characters in this who I guess have their own stories but I wasn't confused by this as they were all introduced in a way that meant as a new reader to the series I understood who everyone was. I will definatley be checking out the other books in this series and other books by Melissa Foster

This book deserves 6 out of 5 stars, but unfortunately, the most I can give it is 5 stars. I loved this book! It is the story of Harley and Piper. It sort of is a friends to lovers romance, or more aptly, just took awhile to realise they were more than friends. Piper is a strong, assertive, woman working in a men's world, construction. Harley is a sexy man that came home to manage his family's bar when his dad gets sick. He has the biggest heart, and tons of patience as he works his web around Piper, but does so always thinking of her. I love his flirtatious comments. Then, there is Jiggs, Harley's not so good wingdog, but a sweet addition. This book is a wonderful story with all the passion, humor, and love that you always expect when you read a book by Melissa Foster. The only thing though was that I really wanted to steal Harley away from Piper, but their love was too strong. I very highly recommend this book as your next read.

3. 5 Breaking Down Walls
* * * 1/2 Spoiler Free
Melissa Foster has been giving her readers a group of characters who have only the best in mind for each other. Are they in each others business...Are they always looking to make things right especially when Not Asked...And have they been caring a torch for one another while being besties...Hell Yes.

In the third installment, She Loves Me, you have Harley Dutch and Piper Dalton. They have been besties for years.It started when they were much younger when Piper fell hard for Harley's brother Marshall. In high school, she thought they were a couple but he cheated on her. Piper then over the years had terrible experiences with other men leading her to believe there was something wrong with her.

You see, Piper was not like the standard young woman. She was not girly in the ways most are. Instead, she liked doing all the things guys did and ended up doing them better than most. She studied and got her contractor's license and went into business with her father. Piper could hold her own with her crew and none of these men doubted her abilities.

She only doubted her abilities with relationships. After having numerous guys trying to change her, she decided to hell with it. She was going to be who she was, blunt, stubborn, and just live her life alone.

Harley has been waiting...For the last three years, he has been there for Piper waiting behind his bar blocking any guy Piper brought for a date. It takes a freak accident, a sprained ankle, some serious pain medication, and two cute girls to put Harley's Final Push to get Piper to see he is Her One.

Harley is the Man. He is a guy who understands Piper perfectly, wants her just as she is, and is willing to be patient. Which is a good thing because he is going to need it.

The story plays out in Melissa Foster's style...some humor, some heart, lots of flirty banter and hot sexy times. There are all the other past characters from Harmony Pointe and a few new ones to keep things going.

Piper and Harley are magical, but real. I love their struggles and how tough she is, but also sweet. Harley is a cuddly bear of a man who knows the best things in life are worth waiting for. I loved them, their story, and all of the side characters!

Thank you to Melissa and Lisa for letting me review this book.

This book is all about Harley and Piper. If you have read the other Harmony Pointe books then you would have met both of these characters before but you can read it as a standalone. I have been waiting for Piper's book for a long time and I was very excited to read it.

Piper doesn't see herself as everyone else does. Piper is one of the most caring people out there but her tough exterior lets her believe that she's not good enough. In the past, guys have tried to change Piper to be more 'girly'. My heart breaks for Piper that she has been through that. No one should have to change who they are for someone else. I love Piper's tough exterior as much as I love her mushy, sappy heart.

It might seem like Piper has friend-zoned Harley but I think she just had a few too many walls up to realise that she felt a lot more than for him. Harley Dutch is an easy character to fall for. He has a big heart. He is protective of his friends and family and is really just an all-round good guy.

I really enjoyed this book and I loved catching up with all the other characters from Harmony Pointe. Melissa really does capture your heart with each and every one of her characters and I love seeing how they are all doing.

I can't wait to return to another Melissa Book.

Harley has loved Piper since she was a teenager, but she has never seen him as more than her best friend. When he finds himself on crutches it is Piper who not only comes to pick him up from the hospital, but she is there to support him as he is currently looking after his two nieces while his sister recovers from surgery.
Piper has decided that love is not in her future as men tend to find it intimidating that she is more comfortable working with her father in construction than anywhere else. She has noticed how attractive Harley is but she doesn’t want to destroy the relationship that they do have.

Harley is determined to test the boundaries of their relationship and show Piper that as great as they as friends they would be even better as lovers. He is willing to be patient, but he will convince her that he loves her just the way she is and wouldn’t change a thing.

This is a sweet and sexy story about two people who couldn’t be more perfect together and catching up with the other characters we know and love is always fun.

She Loves Me is a story with a little bit of twists and turns. I fell for our main characters Piper and Harley!! Harley is our big burly yummy of goodness! I wished I had a BFF like that, just saying! Now to nitty gritty. Piper makes it hard for Hurley to be open and honest for what they feel. That is the "fun" yet "frustrating" part of the story. Piper is damaged emotionally by her past. But the more she is around Harley, the more her walls came down. That was where the magic came through.

I have become a bigger fan of Melissa Foster since I branched out to her other worlds. Harmony Pointe is my go to place when I need to get lost from the crazy we live in right now. Dream a good dream <3

Such a great story about overcoming fears from past experiences. I loved every minute and the characters will draw you in from the first page.

Wow! Piper and Harley are amazing in this friends to lovers story! Piper doesn’t give in easy and her disappointment in men wanting to change her makes her going down harder because she has such a big wall around her heart and Harley is just the guy to stick with her and fight for her and for them. Besides the fact that he is as hot as sin, he’s patient he doesn’t want to change Piper. Oh and his dog Jiggs is so stinking cute! Harley wants Piper just as she is, work boots, tool belt and all. Piper is worried that Harley is just a big cuddly cub and what she finds out is he’s a “demanding, powerful bear of a man, and she freaking loved it.” He’s not into controlling her, he’s all for her taking control too. All this relationship stuff is so new and foreign to Piper that sometimes she makes things harder than they need to be and gets all wrapped up in her head for a bit. Harley is there waiting for her with persistence, love and with baby steps. There is just so much to love about this story!

She Loves Me

**received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**

5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Absolutely loved this book!!!!! I have been waiting for Piper’s book and Melissa Foster did an amazing job bringing it to life. Piper and Harley’s relationship will force her to look at things differently and start to tear down her walls. Harley knows what boundaries to push with her and when to back away. Their dynamic is amazing and their chemistry comes off each page and is electric. I found myself feeling the same emotions that Piper felt and on edge with Harley each time he put himself out there. If you are looking for a new book for your TBR list, She Loves Me needs to be at the top!

One of my favorite reading genres is small town, large family, romances and this author nails it every single time. I loved Piper and Harley’s love story so much. This is the third book in the Harmony Pointe series and it was just as enjoyable reading about Harley and Piper as it was revisiting the rest of the characters from the previous two books. I knew I was going to love Piper’s story because I love strong, independent women and Piper takes it to another level! Harley is swoony, sweet and sexy and and brings out all the feels. It was so much fun reading how her grizzly man got her to move out of her own way to find her own HEA. Oh, and I absolutely adored Jiggs! Can’t wait to see what Melissa has in store for us next. I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC for NetGalley.

She Loves Me is an enjoyable friends to lovers story and Book 3 of the Harmony Pointe series by Melissa Foster. These stories stand perfectly fine on their own but the characters are intertwined throughout which means that if you are familiar with the other stories and their characters you get even more "what happens next" after the happily ever after!

Harley was an amazing character who knew what he wanted (Piper!) and wasn't afraid to go for it. Piper, on the other hand, it took some time for me to warm up to her. She is a very no-nonsense, anti-love and anti-relationship kind of woman. I never wanted to shake some sense into a character as much as I wanted to Piper! Letting a failed high school relationship dictate your love life seemed a bit crazy to me!

This book was filled to the brim with drama, angst, laughs, romance and lots of heat! Overall a great addition to the series and I cannot wait to see what else the author has in store for Harmony Pointe.
