About That Kiss: A Heartbreaker Bay Novel by Jill Shalvis
4.0
I received this book for free from Edelweiss/Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.The first time I read a Jill Shalvis book, I didn't love it. I didn't hate it by any means, but it was just okay for me. It might have been because I hadn't been super into adult romance at the time. Or because I think Jill Shalvis's series tend to get better as they progress. Whatever the reason, I'm so glad I kept reading her books, because she is an all-time favorite author of mine now. About That Kiss by Jill Shalvis was everything I've come to expect from the best of her books. Basically I loved just about everything about About That Kiss.
About That Kiss is about Kylie, a woodworker who works in the Cows Hollow District of San Francisco, and Joe Malone who works with Archer at his security business. Joe and Kylie kissed not too long ago, but then Joe never called her, and so Kylie is a little annoyed with him. But then something important to Kylie goes missing, and she asks Joe for help. Whlie they search for Kylie's possession, they of course fall for each other. Seriously, I fell for them, too.
Kylie was just so adorable, and I loved her so much. She is sweet, and loves her job as a woodworker. She learned her skills from her grandfather, and it is touching how much she loved and respected him. Kylie can be a bit shy, and she definitely crushed on people, which I loved. But I also loved when that crush (not Joe) disappointed her, she told him that she wasn't interested anymore. Kylie also owns Vinnie, the cutest little dog ever!
Joe was fantastic, too. He's a lot like Archer in some ways. He's quiet, calm and super capable. Joe is my kind of guy, in a lot of ways. I loved how much Joe loves his sister, and although he shouldn't feel guilty, I understood why he felt responsible for what happened to his sister when they were teens. As wonderful as he is, Joe, isn't into relationships. But he can't fight his attraction to Kylie.
Kylie and Joe were just perfect together. Shalvis created these characters that I just fell in love with, but I also tell how much they belonged together. That is the best kind of romance! I was a little nervous that there would be a love triangle, but there really wasn't, which made me oh so happy. I also loved seeing the rest of the Heartbreaker Bay gang. Seeing them hang out and support and also pick on each other is just the best. About That Kiss by Jill Shalvis is amazing. If you're a fan of contemporary romance you have to read Jill Shalvis!This review was originally posted on Quinn's Book Nook
