Another great addition to the Heartbreaker Bay series. Kylie and Joe both had a lot of history and baggage. I enjoyed the journey to them finding a Happily Ever After.

Joe and Kylie's story. Kylie has had a rough life and now she has to ask the one person she is avoiding to help her retrieve an object that is very important to her. Full of action, mystery, and fun, sweet romance. Reading these are such a treat. Can't wait for the next one!

I liked this one a lot - Joe and Kylie were really good together and I liked there wasn't really any angst. Sometimes it got a bit too sappy for me tho.

As usual, Shalvis has a winner her with woodworker Kylie and security-expert Joe. I just love watching all the guarded young professionals in the Pacific Pier building open themselves up to love.

This is the fifth book in this series. It can be read as a stand alone novel. If you are looking for a sweet, romantic read than you might want to pick up a copy of About That Kiss. Joe and Kylie made a cute couple. Kylie had some spunk to her. I like that she could push Joe's buttons as well as stand toe to toe with him. Even, he admitted it. Although, if there is anyone that I would want to have helping me, it would be Joe. He is patient, good looking, a good brother, and has charm.
The mystery aspect of this story was fine. It kind of seemed a bit muted and slow to come to the conclusion. Luckily, Kylie and Joe's interactions helped to keep the story flowing and interesting. Although, they couldn't keep it all the time entertaining. There were times in the middle that I lost interest. The last several chapters picked up speed. All and all I liked this book.

I absolutely love this series! Kylie and Joe had chemistry that was insane and their sexy times were hot. There was a small mystery element and that's what got Kylie to seek out Joe after their kiss. This book had all the humor, heart and heat that Shalvis is known for. It is a must read and I will reread it.

I have fallen in love with the Heartbreaker Bay World, especially the characters! I don’t care which pair it is, just give me their story and I’m happy. And I absolutely loved Joe and Kylie’s tale — About That Kiss was fantastically excellent!
I was looking forward to Joe getting his book ever since Chasing Christmas Eve and he did not disappoint. Sure, he has stubborn, eye rolling, head shaking moments, but Joe truly is a great guy. He would do anything to protect someone he cares about and he’d do whatever they needed him to do. Joe is hard, but he’s definitely a softy with his people. He’s a wonderful hero and I loved him.
And it was impossible not to love Kylie. She’s talented, smart, stubborn, and she doesn’t let Joe get away with anything. She’s tough and sweet and true. Kylie is a fighter through and through and she always challenges Joe and keeps him on his toes. Kylie is just an amazing woman with such a good heart — I just loved her to pieces!
About That Kiss made my heart ache, it amused me, and put a smile on my face. It was full of passion, grit, and strong characters. It made me laugh and melt — I really enjoyed reading this book. It was beyond a worthy addition to this marvelous series and I absolutely CANNOT wait to read the next book!
About That Kiss can be read as a standalone, it’s told from Joe and Kylie’s POV, and they do get their happily-ever-after.

I'm not sure if it was just this story, but it didn't hit like the previous 4 did.

That darn sexy Joe!! He needed a kick in the pants. Kylie did too! Thinking she was meant for another when Joe's kiss knocked her socks off!! Loved getting their story! This bit of mystery with the penguin was a good way to bring them together! A great edition to the Heartbreaker Bay series. Keep them coming, Jill!!
