Shamelessly Mr. Charming

Playing Mr. Perfect / Claiming Her Heart
by Melissa Foster
2025
A two-story volume that pairs Playing Mr. Perfect with Claiming Her Heart. It's a convenient way to read two connected romances back to back, with all the chemistry, family interference, and happily-ever-afters included.
Series background & context
The Bradens at Ridgeport is a later branch of Melissa Foster’s Love in Bloom world, focused on the Braden family in a new location and a fresh era of romances. If you like the Braden name but want a slightly more modern, flirty tone, this series is a great fit.
These books still deliver Foster’s core ingredients, strong chemistry, emotional honesty, and a supportive cast, but the setups often lean into playful tension: irresistible heroes, sharp banter, and relationships that start with “this is a bad idea” energy and turn into something real.
Ridgeport also keeps the connected-universe feel. Characters have history. Family members have opinions. And when someone falls in love, it rarely happens quietly, because the people around them care too much to let them self-sabotage.
Newer titles in this branch include the “Mr. Braden” romances, which mix family warmth with a bit of romcom sparkle. That makes this series especially easy to binge if you enjoy fast pacing and big feelings without a heavy tone.
Flirty, heartfelt, and highly readable.
If you want to follow the Ridgeport arc, start with Sincerely, Mr. Braden: Seth Braden and continue in order as new couples take the spotlight.
