Life was smooth sailing for Riley Smith. She’d earned a promotion, was living the dream as a single gal in a big city, and treated herself to one of her favorite things – a professional basketball game. In Riley’s opinion, nothing ruined a good basketball game like the halftime gag, the Kiss Cam. When the camera lands on her and the sexy stranger in the next seat over, peer pressure from the … arena forces them to kiss. It was supposed to be quick, meaningless, and comical. Instead the kiss was hot, delectable, and left her reeling.
It hadn’t been a great night for Camden Rogers, son of Portland’s mayor. On a date with a woman he didn’t care for out of obligation to his politician father, meeting the sassy and intelligent Riley was the last thing he expected. Kissing her, however, was the hottest thing he’d ever experienced. Never one to back down from a challenge, convincing his hesitant kissing partner they could be more would be his biggest accomplishment yet.
They came from two different worlds, a divide Riley was sure they couldn’t overcome, but Camden was convinced she was the one. Will Riley be able to let her guard down and let Camden in? Or will the Kiss Cam be their only sexy encounter?
Author’s Note: Kiss Cam was originally published in June of 2016 as a 19,000-word novella in the Passion in Portland anthology. I have added 55,000 new words and expanded the story into a full-length novel. If you read the original novella, you will not want to miss out on the expanded story. 18+ for mature content.

For starters, how cute is this title? And the meet-cute is even cuter.
You see, it’s about two people who meet at a basketball game. The idea of ending up on the kiss cam about fifteen minutes after you meet someone is well, it gives my tummy knots, to be honest.
But these two have such an amazing connection.
And let me just say. I have rarely read such an amazing kiss as their Kiss Cam kiss. Sorry. Spoiler. Yes, they kiss. What did you think would happen in a book called Kiss Cam? LOL
There wasn’t anything I didn’t adore about this book. I’ll just go ahead and say it. Anie Michaels did a masterful job with this book. Kiss Cam is what I wish all romance novels were. Conflict, but a realistic one. And not so much that I get annoyed with the h/H. Passion, friendship, a thoughtful hero, steamy, sweet, interesting side characters. And of course, a happy ending.
This book is enchanting, and romantic. With a couple that is endearing, loving, and a hoot. She’s the best friend you route for. He’s the perfect boyfriend. Together they melt your socks. Great book.
Really enjoyed the story of Cam and Riley. I was a bit hesitant with the whole ‘meet cute’ premise but Michaels did not disappoint. Riley and Cam end up sitting next to each other at a basketball game. Cam is with a date who breaks up with him. Riley is there with her friend, celebrating Riley’s promotion. Riley overhears Cam and his gf and has some witty internal dialog. Riley and Cam end up on the kiss cam. Naturally, there’s combustible chemistry between the two.
Commence the H chasing the h. While the plot was a bit stereotypical in rich, hot guy and poor upbrining girl with issues, Michaels brings a fresh view. Minimal angst between the characters and you see their relationship build over time.
I really enjoyed reading this book.
This story had great chemistry between the couple and some great humerous moments. I was happy to see an author able to write about a couple having misunderstandings and actually working through them rather than having big drama throughout the book. Great romantic read! Loved it!!!
A very enjoyable book. Good for a rainy day or a day at the beach.
Very enjoyable read.
Loved it! It is my favorite combo of funny and romantic.
I enjoyed this book. Good romance. Good storyline.
Funny and couldn’t put it down..
Very cute story. I loved all of the characters they were easy to get to know and love. And although it was very sexual I believe it was done in good taste. The only thing I thought was a little strange about the sex was that she thought he was the best sex she ever had yet when describing their sex it seemed it was over in less than 5 or 10 minutes. And I don’t see that he did anything for her. He was always looking for a coat closet or someplace strange to have sex and I didn’t see for play for her in that.
I really liked this book because it was easy to read and kept your interest. It was written like life might happen to a couple and their friends too. Very believable and was the way some people and especially women will but into others lives and try them to take over
Sweet
…….can you sex and more sex
So cute!
