Finding Love
4By Agent$$$$Kitty, the oldest sister, has always been the level-headed sister. While growing up, the sisters used the "kissing" test as a way to weed out the men who weren't worth the effort of a relationship. While pursuing her dreams, Kitty wasn't always around to make sure Maggie was making wise decisions. On Maggie's wedding day, Kitty overhears Beck saying he's marrying Maggie for what she has--a horse with race horse breeding potential. Kitty makes a rash decision and proceeds to kiss the groom during the wedding ceremony. What turns out to be a kiss that stops the wedding, ends up making Kitty feel things she's never felt before. Beck is a guy you love to hate. In the beginning of the novella, you see him as greedy. Beck wants breeding rights of the horse and is willing to marry, use Maggie to get them. When kissed by Kitty, Beck is furious. Gentleman that he is though, he agrees to take Kitty's grandma back to Atlanta. While traveling, Kitty and Beck get to know each other. They realize that their differences make them perfect for each other, but neither acts upon their desires until issues with Maggie are cleared up as they don't want to further hurt her. I really enjoyed this novella. It had all the feels of romance. It was a sweet, heartfelt, funny novella. Granny and the alligator farm adventures were HILARIOUS!!! Cute summer read. I read a gifted copy and all opinions stated are my own.A Kiss is Just a Kiss
4By Jean GranowskiThis wasn't your typical romance novel. But it was certainly an interesting journey. Beck is set to marry Maggie, Kitty's sister, but Kitty always being protective of her sisters put Beck to the test with a kiss. Unfortunately that test happened in front of a church full of people. That's where the insanity started. Wedding ruined, families left Beck and Kitty behind, along with Kitty's grandmother, Dottie. They embark on a mini adventure combined with a journey of self discovery on their way to catch up with the family so Beck can talk to Maggie. I loved the characters in this story, especially Dottie. She was a hoot!Love in a Kiss
5By Joan T MuellerThis is the first installment in a new series by a fun and entertaining author. The theme of the kiss defines how the characters feel about each other from an abrupt end to an engagement to the discovery of everlasting love. Paralleling the grandmother's life with granddaughter's struggle in finding a steadfast love brings tears to the reader while forming a connection with the characters. This story is chock full of adventures that have the reader laughing aloud. I loved this book and would highly recommend it!!A kiss is never just a kiss
5By MommyX8Kitty and Beck have each met their matches; unfortunately it was in the middle of Beck's wedding to Kitty's sister! What a fun premise for a story. There was such fun conflict and a great matchmaking Grandma! The story leaves no loose ends and has its own perfectly happy ending. Yet there are more sisters who need a happy ending. This couple will be fun to watch throughout the series.
