Heartbreaker Bay – Book 5

Avon Books
When love drives you crazy . . .
When sexy Joe Malone never calls after their explosive kiss, Kylie shoves him out of her mind. Until she needs a favor, and it’s a doozy. Something precious to her has been stolen and there’s only one person with unique finder-and-fixer skills that can help—Joe. It means swallowing her pride and somehow trying to avoid the temptation to throttle him—or seduce him.
the best thing to do . . .
No, Joe didn’t call after the kiss. He’s the fun time guy, not the forever guy. And Kylie, after all she’s been through, deserves a good man who will stay. But everything about Kylie makes it damned hard to focus, and though his brain knows what he has to do, his heart isn’t getting the memo.
… is enjoy the ride.
As Kylie and Joe go on the scavenger hunt of their lives, they discover surprising things about each other. Now, the best way for them to get over “that kiss” might just be to replace it with a hundred more.

REVIEW
About That Kiss is another fabulous addition to the Heartbreaker Bay series, this time bringing us the story of Joe and Kylie. Full of fun moments, swoons, and a romance they didn't expect, this book delivers everything needed to leave a reader happy at the end.
The set up for About that Kiss was fun and different - and it worked in the favor of Joe and Kylie as a way to bring them together and work through their thoughts/feelings. Joe hadn't called Kylie after a kiss and she was left with all sorts of feelings about that fact. But when Kylie finds herself in trouble of sorts, Joe is the first one to step up and step in to help her - and in doing so she finds herself with more feelings.
One of my favorite things about this series is the closeness of the group of characters - even when they are going through serious things - there's always a little bit of fun and silliness to add levity. But there is also that feeling of "Don't screw this up" because when you live in such a small town - where everyone knows everything - you are always being watched. I love that little bit of angst added because it sort of builds on the story - a what happens if things don't work out - how do you move on with the rest of your friends if they feel you are in the wrong. Thankfully, Joe and Kylie do find their happiness and work through her trouble as well, and they do it in such a fun sort, growing closer along the way.
About that Kiss will suck you right in, not just to the story, but to the town, to the people in it, and to the magic of it all. You'll laugh, swoon, and fall in love alongside Joe and Kylie.
