A Kiss for Luck A Novella Sweetest Kisses Book 0 edition by Grace Burrowes Contemporary Romance eBooks

This little gem is free, or at least it was at the time I reviewed it. This is another prequel to Ms. Burrowes newest series, a contemporary grouping called Sweetest Kisses. While the main novels are about the Knightley brothers, the first two novellas are about supporting characters. A taste, if you will, of the goodies to come!

I have loved the historical novels by this author. Some say I'm her number one fangirl. That could certainly be true!

In this story, Sadie is working hard to protect her sister and her nephew. They've had a very hard couple years and this is a new start for everyone. Gideon has moved into the apartment complex while his elderly farmhouse is getting a face-lift. Living with him is his very LARGE dog, Baby. Gideon is an investigator and he's looking for the young son of a client. We know where the lines are going to cross long before our characters do, and it kept me on tenterhooks. One of the best parts of this author's "tricks" is that she has her characters ACT LIKE ADULTS. They don't keep secrets, they work together...family is everything. I do love that. While she uses this "trope" in every book she writes, whether it is this new contemporary series, or her many historicals, this never gets old with me.

There is a love scene in this book that was truly one of the most beautiful ones I've ever read. And there are no "f" words...or that horrible "c" word either. It's hotter than heck, and beautifully erotic, with no "bad" words. Whew...almost melted my iPad.

While we can worry if things will work out, we also know they will. One of the reasons why I read this author. Her foray into contemporary romance is a brilliant one. And the teaser she shares of the third book in the series, Kiss Me Hello, has me panting to get my hands on it. Mack is an attorney AND a farrier. Can't get any better than that!

I'm reviewing the first novel in the series, A Single Kiss, tomorrow. Please come by and check it out!

A Kiss for Luck A Novella Sweetest Kisses Book 0 edition by Grace Burrowes Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews

A Kiss for Luck by Grace Burrowes is a 2014 Sourcebooks/Casablanca publication.

This short story/novella is a contemporary romance, as opposed the historical novels the author is known for.

After a horrendous family trial involving her sister's very nasty divorce from a dangerous man, Sadie has decided to settle into the benign Damson Valley area to be close by her sister and nephew. She never expected to begin a relationship with her neighbor, Gideon and his pack of friends.
As the saying goes, “It's a small world”. Indeed, what are the odds that Gideon would somehow be the one person that stands in the way of the peace Sadie's sister has finally found. This naturally causes the budding romance to come to a sudden and screeching halt. Will Gideon fulfill his work obligations or will he risk his job to keep Sadie and her family safe?

While this is not the best work from this author, it's not a total loss. I do confess to being a big fan of Grace Burrowes and so I want to like all her books. So, I worked as seeing the positives in this one, even if was kind of weak.
The first name/ last name trademark with this author backfired a little in this one as I had a hard time initially keeping track of who was who. Once I got that sorted out though, I thought the story was pretty good, if just a bit rushed through. I loved “Baby” and the shout out to adopt older, larger, and black dogs who often are hard to place in homes. I also ended up with a serious craving for chocolate brownies! 3 stars
This was a sweet story in a novella format. Only six chapters but a complete, well written story.

I have read some of Grace Burrowes’ historical romances and this being a contemporary romance, was a change for me. I think her writing style is better suited to contemporary stories. This is because often her historical characters have quite modern views which stretch my belief in them. That’s not an issue with contemporary characters.

It was a pleasant read for me because the hero and heroine were mature in their attitudes, respectful and loving, didn’t have annoying misunderstandings arising from difficult histories, and were good people.

The relationship was comfortable, and while the kissing started a bit earlier than I felt it should have, that is just me nit-picking. There were sexy times, but they were sweet and not overly graphic, in my view.

I could hear the hero’s English accent. Oh, so dishy!

As with her historical romances, there are many secondary characters who seem intriguing and will obviously get their own stories. In this shortened format, it was a lot for me to absorb who all the personalities were, and I had to pause to remember their relationship to the main characters. Yet all those characters made me feel warm and toasty when together, as if I were part of that circle of friends allowing me to observe their wonderful repartees.

I’m only giving it 3 stars because I was on an even keel the whole time I read it. No heart rate acceleration with worry or utter joy. Comfortable. This is not a criticism, though, because I love that cosy feeling Grace Burrowes’ writing gives me.

My favourite novel by Grace Burrowes is “Darius”, which I consider 5 star. It was my first by her and I read it a long time ago, but I still remember Darius meltingly. I know she has the ability to affect me like that again, so I’ll keep reading her books with fingers crossed.
