One Little Kiss by Maggie Kelley – a Review

One Little Kiss Amazon / B&N / Kobo / BAM

Description:
Love blogger Kate Bell is finished with men—especially the hot ones. Of course her only chance to save her career requires snagging an interview with the man who literally wrote the book on love, reclusive and super-sexy relationship expert Jake Wright. Who happens to be her boss’s brother.

The last thing Jake Wright wants is to be dragged back into the spotlight as a bachelor for his sister’s dating website. But when a sweet and sexy blogger crashes onto his island in the middle of a storm worse than his love life, keeping his hands off proves to be a challenge—especially when they’re stuck sharing the same bungalow.

Review;

One Little Kiss by Maggie Kelley is a fast, fun, charming and sexy read. Jake and Kate are fun characters with different takes on love and relationships. Poor Jake doesn’t know what hits him when Kate arrives a little on the tipsy side thanks to her three martinis on the plane. I was LOL’ing at this scene and Kate’s un-guarded comments regarding Jake and his looks thanks to her self-induced booze haze. This whole scene sets the stage for the rest of the story, and the chemistry that sparks between the two of them jumps off the pages at every turn.

Kate and Jake are both well developed characters and we can see why both have their different perspectives and takes on what love and relationships mean to them. Poor Jake had his heart shattered by his ex-wife; she had an affair with is agent, and poor the girl next door Kate just keeps falling for the wrong guy. Together they make quite the pair and their sexy, flirtatious witty banter just keeps the story moving along at a pace that makes you wonder just where the time went as you’re reading. It’s an easy story to get into and stay in thanks to Jake and Kate. Their chemistry is sizzling, but the friendly, at ease nature they have with each other is a breath of fresh air. It allows their conversations to flow and their relationship to blossom without feeling rushed or forced like some shorter stories do at times.

One Little Kiss by Maggie Kelley is the third installment in her Smart Cupid series. Like I said it’s a fun, fast read, with plenty of humor and sizzling chemistry. Maggie Kelley’s writing is witty, flirtatious, and with a carefree attitude that allowed me, the reader to sit a back and enjoy Kate and Jake’s story. It’s the perfect book to take to the beach, or have a lazy Sunday afternoon with. After reading this one and enjoying it as much as I did, I wish I had read the previous two in the series first. Guess I’ll be going back to read those now, because I have a feeling they will be just as entertaining as One Little Kiss.

Until next time, happy reading everyone!!
