Description:
You have to take a risk to live an adventure.
Determined, capable, and primed to rock her first big marketing conference, Stacy Saunders is not about let to anything get in the way of her ambition. It's been a long time since she's been in New Orleans, but she has no use for beads or Bourbon Street. She built a strict itinerary for this trip – one that certainly didn't include running into the gorgeous Tennyson Landry again.
A chance reunion between the former lovers brings old feelings to the surface and the possibility of rekindling old flames. Their second time around could be the best time of all – if they can bridge the gap even wider than the thousand miles between them…
This novella definitely gets better as it progresses, and you have to stick with it. The story takes a while to get going due to a slow start, but by the end things pick up as the relationship develops. I'm a big fan of second chance romances, and I felt the connection between Ten and Stacy was good and well developed. There were small details about their history that gave an insight into their relationship, and thought the back story was created well.
I definitely liked Ten better than Stacy. I didn't feel much towards her if I'm honest because she was such a workaholic. I also felt there were a few too many inner thoughts and not enough action in her POV sections. She just felt a little cold to me, whereas Ten was this laid back artist who had an easy-going attitude. He was also more open to the idea of a relationship whereas Stacey just looked at the negative points.
Overall though, despite liking One Kiss better, this was still a good read. I'd say it's more of a grower and one you have to stick with, but it does get better with the more pages you turn.
