Kiss This by Hadley Quinn

 

 

(This book includes mature content, including sex and language)

22-year-old Camryn Jacobs lost the love of her life once and vows to never kiss another guy unless she's in love with him. When she meets Teague, their attraction to one another is off the charts, and for the first time in two years, she wants to disregard her rule.

But Camryn makes a bet that he can't go just one week without kissing her. She's protecting her own fragile heart, but her wit and smart mouth end up driving Teague crazy.

When Teague is equally skilled at her challenge, their friendship turns complicated. He's not at all what she assumed, and he makes her feel things she never expected to feel. But sharing her true reasons for the no-kiss bet hurts too much and she keeps him in the dark.

Teague has his own secrets to hide, starting with his last name. It's the reason he left town--to lick his wounds until he can piece his life back together. His time with Camryn proves that it might actually be possible, but with the threat of his family and his past ruining all that he's finally gained, can he really take that risk again?

Loving might be easy; learning to trust again could be too difficult to achieve...

Spoiler Warning:

Family drama means nothing until you read this book. Teague is such a good guy and he keeps getting the worst out of the people who should love him. Camryn and Teague help each other heal from the pain their lives have brought upon them, and they up the on another find happiness again. 

Although I liked this story I didn't like that Teague kept stuff from Camryn. I understand why he has trust issues with the family he grew up in but any relationship has to start with honesty and Teague went about it the wrong way. It was stupid how long Camryn was left in the dark when Teague's family constantly brings up what she doesn't know by name. I feel like we missed out on things Teague would confront his family or say he was buys doing something but we wouldn't know what was truly going on. Readers are given the general idea of what was going on but I wish we could have seen it all. 

I enjoyed this story it was fresh and romantic. It had intriguing and realistic characters and a good plot even if there were minor character flaws.
