About this listen

It started with a kiss. Then it became so much more.

Love at first sight. Avery Connor doesn't believe in it. But what about love at first kiss?

A favor for a friend. Kiss a stranger and walk away. But what if that favor, and that stranger, prove to be the turning point of her life? What if that kiss leads to something more?

Dr. Daniel Stewart is certain it will. He is determined to make her see him. To feel what he feels. To have the effects of that kiss last forever.

Contains mature themes.

Some fluffy sweetness from Ms Moreland

If you could sum up It Started with a Kiss in three words, what would they be?

Angst light. Drama light. sweetness overload.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

It was enjoyable. I'm not a writer, and have only an opinion or expectation of what an author's metier seems to be vs what's in the next book. I have read (ie. listened to!) every one of her books. I loved The Contract. Beneath the Scars was also very well written too.Over the Fence was fun and funny. And, touching. Into the Storm? They all have two things in common. Broken soul meets Broken soul. Each heal one another with loads of sex, dramatics, and interference from others. This one was not her usual ... more like semi-broken spirited soul (she's a bit of a freak) meets a strong ex nerd type and they fall in love. Then, that's all they do. Be in love and boy does that happen freakishly fast too. All in all, I kept waiting for SOMETHING to happen... something big to turn the book's cotton candy framework into something I could sink my teeth into. It never happened. All in all a sweet story. It almost felt like MAYBE, just MAYBE, Ms Moreland trotted out the first book she ever wrote a decade ago and jazzed it up with some relevant 2017 activity like cell phone, texting, etc and threw it out at us to see if a sweet love story might fill a few hours while we waited for her next REAL new book. And, I do not mean to be rude at all. Just expressing how it felt listening.

Which scene was your favorite?

I really thought the "give me three" theme was sweet.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The daddy daughter date ... too sweet.

Any additional comments?

For readers: this is such a sweet book. Don't miss it JUST because there's no angst or dramatics. There is a little, I promise, but it's SO weak and fleeting, and there's so much HEA it's given me a cavity! ;)

A favorite

At first I thought it was so cheesy but as I got to know Daniel and Avery I fell in love. I cried through the last few chapters it was basically an epilogue but put the finishing touches on a HEA. I’m sure I’ll listen again and again.

such a sweet story.

This was such a sweet romance. I enjoyed it and I recommend it. I enjoyed the performance of the narrators as well. This is the third book I've listened to by this author and I have really enjoyed them all.

Kiss

Beautiful story, I love this author, and this wonderful story with not to much drama, just the right amount of spicy heat, and the epilogue going years into the future was an added bonus!

Such a nice story

I really enjoyed this story and the narrators were great. Best epilogue ever. As the late great Paul Harvey would say “Now you know the rest of the story”

Absolutely beautiful

I loved everything about Daniel and Avery's love story. Beautiful insta-lust to love romance. This is what a fairytale love story should be. Love, humor, and heart. That last chapter was so endearing, I didn't want this book to end. I was searching for a John Lane listen, so glad I chose this one. It left me with such a happy feeling. Topnotch narration by both Tatiana and John. Thank you Melanie Moreland for such an heartwarming book!
