I enjoyed the author's writing style which made this book quick and easy to read.
Envolvente, enternecedor, viciante. São estes os três adjectivos que eu uso para descrever este maravilhoso livro!
"Todos os Teus Beijos" é o primeiro livro que eu leio de Laura Lee Guhrke mas, sem sombra de dúvida, que fiquei fã e que vou começar a seguir os lançamentos desta autora.
No livro "Todos os Teus Beijos" conhecemos Dylan, um músico que, desde a queda de um cavalo, não consegue compor nenhuma música e, por causa disso, se tenta suicidar e é nessa altura que entra em cena Grace. Grace é uma jovem violinista que deitou tudo a perder quando fugiu de casa para casar com um famoso pintor. Dylan fica enfeitiçado no segundo em que a vê e ouve.
Com a entrada em cena de Isabel, Dylan consegue a sua oportunidade para trazer Grace para junto de si.
É um livro maravilhoso e muito bem escrito.
Recomendo!

His Every Kiss is the second book in the Guilty series by Laura Lee Guhrke.
I enjoyed this book as well but not as much as the 1st book in the series. It still had great characterization, great writing and the plot of the book was well done.
Dylan Moore, is a brilliant composer but he’s a tormented soul due to an accident that happened one day while riding his horse on Rotten Row. He uses pleasure and reckless behavior to make his torment go away.
One night, he decides to end his life and Grace Cheval was there to save him. This happens in the 1st chapter of the book so I’m not giving anything away with this part of the story.
He doesn’t see Grace until 5 years later and wants her to be his muse for his music. Grace wants nothing to do with Dylan or that type of relationship since she was the wife of a famous painter. One tormented artist is enough for her and no thank you! Hahaha
This is a sweet, redemption story of a brilliant musician, a wonderful and loving woman and a feisty and independent little girl that ends up saving Dylan more then he was prepared for.
3.5 stars!

After a riding accident Dylan, a famous composer, is unable to compose any music due to a constant whining in his head. He decides to commit suicide, but Grace is able to stop him by playing one of his pieces on her violin. 5 years later Dylan is able to track her down and on the brink of destitution convince her to become the governess of his 8 year old daughter who has been left at his house by a French nun after her mother's death.
Maybe a 3.5, I found the musical aspects intriguing.

His Every Kiss by Laura Lee Guhrke is the 2nd book in the Guilty series. First published in 2004, His Every Kiss tells the story of renowned musician and composer Dylan Moore, who struggles to make music ever since a terrible incident leaves him bereft of his ability to compose, battling insomnia and all other ugliness that becomes part and parcel of life for him from that point on wards.
When Grace Anne Lawrence comes across Dylan at a point in his life when he is feeling his lowest, it is because of Grace that Dylan steps back from the precipice that he had been ready to fling himself off of. Because for the first time in months, in the presence of Grace, Dylan is able to focus on the music that is such an integral part of himself, which he had lost.
When Grace disappears leaving him behind, the story continues five years on. Dylan whose search had not found where Grace had disappeared to, at times believes that she had been a figment of her imagination when he had been at his lowest. When Dylan runs into Grace again, he is determined that this time around, he would hold onto her even if it means working hard to gain that right to be with her.
Grace is wary of Dylan for many reasons, one of them being the fact that she is a woman once burnt and twice shy. There is nothing more that Grace wants than to return home, a home she knows would no longer welcome her because of the shame she had brought unto her family when she left them in pursuit of her passions. Grace is done with men who are creative, who needs her as a muse, who sees her only as a means to an end. In Dylan, that is all Grace sees and nothing more.
Dylan, without being privy to any of what makes Grace so reluctant to give into him, pursues her with a dogged determination that Grace sidesteps with every intention of rejecting his every offer. That is until Dylan comes face to face with the result of one of his many dalliances in the past in the form of Isabel, his daughter.
Grace gives in and comes into Dylan’s life in as Isabel’s governess, and amidst all of it, Dylan is relentless in his need to possess the woman who calms his mind and soul to a point that he is finally at peace from what hounds him day and night. However, it would take more than Dylan’s considerable charms and wit to convince Grace to give in and love him for the rest of both their lives.
His Every Kiss, I must be honest, kind of fell short of my expectations. The beginning of the story hinted at something that could have delivered a richly nuanced story, exploring an illness that affects so many people across the globe. An illness that particularly has no cure and has driven many to a point of madness, the only avenue left being adjusting to a sickness that one would in all probability have to suffer through for the rest of their lives.
I loved Dylan as a character, and felt terribly sympathetic towards him because I could empathize with what he was going through. Grace has a backstory that kind of broke my heart at certain points, but the aloofness with which she treats Dylan for the most part of the story never really won any brownie points for her with me. I wished she had been more welcoming, more understanding, and more emotionally connected to Dylan which would have made their union more believable towards the end.
The one character that annoyed me endlessly was Isabel. I don’t think I have come across a more tiresome child in a novel, who at times made me want to clench my jaw, and hard. I really wanted to love Dylan and Grace’s story, but alas, I must say that there was something integral missing between the two of them for their connection to be believable and tangible for me as a reader.
Recommended for fans of Laura Lee Guhrke.
Final Verdict: With every kiss he lays on Grace, Dylan speaks of a need that goes beyond words. If not for the lack of emotional connection between them, His Every Kiss could have been a marvelous read!
Rating = 3/5

Enjoyed reading about a musical hero who suffers from a maddening case of tinnitus. I occasionally have bouts of it and can imagine the suffering of trying to hear and compose through it.
