Spotlight Read - It's In His Kiss by Jill Shalvis

 
As today's spotlight read, I bring you It's In His Kiss by Jill Shalvis. This is book 10 in Jill's Lucky Harbor series and features Sam and Becca. If you've never read any of Jill's books, I would definitely recommend starting with the Lucky Harbor series. It's funny, sexy and chock-full of yummy men. :)
 
 
 

ONE KISS CAN LAST FOREVER

Becca Thorpe has uprooted her life and escaped to the beach. Now's her chance to get away from city living, throw caution to the ocean winds, and live in the moment. Especially if the moment includes the deliciously sexy surfer she meets shortly after arriving in Lucky Harbor. Something about the dark intensity of Sam's eyes and the thrill she gets at his touch convinces her to stay awhile.

Boatbuilder and investment genius Sam Brody is a self-made man who knows how dangerous it can be to mix business and pleasure. But he can't resist offering Becca a job just to hear her laugh and have her near. Yet when her brother comes to town asking for help, will he tempt her back to her glamorous life in the city? Or do Sam and little Lucky Harbor have a chance to win Becca's heart?



 

I’m never disappointed when I read a story by Jill Shalvis. It’s In His Kiss is no exception. In the latest installment to her Lucky Harbor series, Jill introduces us to Sam & Becca. Becca is new to Lucky Harbor and is looking for a new beginning. Sam aka “sexy grumpy surfer” runs Lucky Harbor Charters with his friends Cole and Tanner. Drawn to each other, it’s not long before they are unable to resist the pull of attraction. But when Becca hires on as office manager for Lucky Harbor Charters, Sam insists that he doesn’t get involved with employees. Jill has done it again. I couldn’t put It’s In His Kiss down. From the first page, it grabbed me and kept me hooked and wanting to know what was going to happen next. Sam is every inch the sexy grumpy surfer that Becca decides he is and it just makes you love him more. I definitely recommend Becca and Sam’s story to anyone who loves their romances filled with sexy men, laughter, small town gossips and great story.

SOMETIMES WRONG IS OH-SO-RIGHT

After a wrenching loss, Ben McDaniel tried to escape his grief by working in dangerous, war-torn places like Africa and the Middle East. Now he's back in his hometown and face-to-face with Aubrey Wellington, the hot-as-hell woman who is trouble with a capital T. Family and friends insist she's not the one to ease his pain, but Aubrey sparks an intense desire that gives Ben hope for the future.

Determined to right the wrongs of her past, Aubrey is working hard to make amends. But by far, the toughest challenge to her plan is sexy, brooding Ben - even though he has absolutely no idea what she's done . . .

Can this unlikely couple defy the odds and win over the little town of Lucky Harbor?

 
 

“I don’t want to talk about it,” she said. Once again he was close. Too close. So damn close. “At all,” she added, hearing with some alarm that her voice had softened. Everything had softened, at just his proximity. “Ever,” she whispered, and found her gaze locked on his mouth.
 
He had a really great mouth.
 
“I don’t want to talk, either,” that mouth said very seriously. And then he lowered his head. They shared a breath for a beat, just long enough for her to know what was going to happen and feel the anticipation swamp her.
 
Then he kissed her, deep and slow and utterly mesmerizing. His hands were firm on her back. Needing an anchor, she reached out and grasped his shirt and leaned into him. He was warm and solid, so very solid, emitting the kind of strength that she herself was a pint low on today.
 
Leaning in more, she felt his body respond.
 
Someone moaned. I did, she realized, swamped with the sensation of being wanted, even just physically. She took in the delicious taste of him, the feel of him, the sound of his very male groan when she stroked her tongue to his.
 
Things got a little hazy then. A lot hazy. She felt his hands move over her, melting her bones away. She touched him, too. Her hands wandered all over his body—and good Lord, what a body.
 
She had no idea how long they kissed—and kissed—but she didn’t think about stopping until she ran out of air. Breathing hard, she slowly opened her eyes and stared directly into his.
 
They’d heated. Darkened. And something else. He wasn’t looking so relaxed now. In fact, he was looking the opposite of relaxed. He looked…feral.
 
And she was his prey.
