About That Kiss: A Heartbreaker Bay Novel by Jill Shalvis

3.0

I love the Heartbreaker Bay series yet this one didn’t quite cut it for me. I like Kylie and her career as a woodworker is cool. Joe, as well is set up as an interesting character. The thing for me with a romance, is connecting with the characters and their connection. I didn’t start to really connect for these characters until closer to the end of the story. I felt like there wasn’t too much to know about them in the beginning except they couldn’t keep their hands off each other. Yes, again, it’s a romance but in Shalvis’s other books in this series, the reader knows more about them, feels like one of their crew and how they’re connected...etc. the beginning scenes just felt rushed and a little forced. I couldn’t put my finger on it. The ending just came across better.
