This book was such a fun listen. You have your second chance romance with a bit of mystery and suspense thrown in. That, in my opinion, is a very good combination. Add that to some really good narration and you have a great getaway!
I love this book! Julia and Aaron are fantastic characters. Julia has some major problems to deal with. After five long years she finally lets Aaron help her. Their daughter shows them how easy it is to love and trust each other. A few ups and downs on the way to HEA. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.
I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through bookfunnel arc.
Julia wanted to make sure that her mother was put in the institution
and never get out. Julia calls Aaron and asked him if she could come home. It’s been five years that she chose her mother over her family and that teenage girl who also help destroy her family. Julia told Aaron she wanted to come back after 5 years to see her daughter. Aaron told her she could see Amy if she would do him a favor. Julia made good on her word and she did want to see Amy who ran to her when she saw her at the terminal. Julia finally tells Aaron what was going on she finally realized her mother was poisoning her. She also told him that she thinks she poisoned her father but had no proof. Aaron really wanted a second chance with his family together. It took a lot for Julia to open up to Aaron about the years she had been away. Amy didn’t want to let go of her she didn’t want to lose her mother again. Aaron kept pushing Julia to make a decision about their lives. It wasn’t until Aaron got one phone call while he was onboard the ship that would change his life. Will Aaron pushing Julia make her want to run away after the cruise. Would Julia stick around after she finds out about the call? Twists, turns, lies, and attempted murder.
One More Kiss was a nice second chance romance with some intrigue and mystery. Julia left her husband and daughter 5 years ago to care for her ill mother. Now, though, she suspects her mother is mentally ill and has finally managed to get out from under her control by having her committed. She wants to go home to her family, but will Aaron let her? Will he let her back into their daughter’s life? Will he let her back into his life?
Can Aaron and Julia have their second chance when there are people determined to see them apart? Is their love strong enough to withstand whatever outside forces throw at them?
If you like Roxy’s criminal underground/mafia books, you’ll like One More Kiss, too. It’s got Roxy’s usual suspense, just in a different form. It’s also got Roxy’s signature sexy style and entertaining characters. I think my favorite character this time around has to be their daughter, Amy. She’s precocious and remarkably adult. I can’t say I liked Julia very much, but I did like Aaron and am glad he got his second chance because it was obvious the love he and Julia once had had never abated.
Lies and secrets surround them and now instead of the truth they are doing it again. 5 years she was gone and there was so much more to it than he ever knew. I love that this is a second chance romance and not an inst love read. They have history and they have a story but she wants it to be honest. These two still have so much love and so much to work out. It’s a well written story with characters who are real and that you can invest in.
This is my first story by this author and it was an amazing read. I will most definitely be reading more,
What a great story. This story is very different from other second chance romances I’ve read. Dealing with mental illness is hard and Roxy captured the emotions perfectly. This book will give you the feels but also make you fall for Aaron. Great read. Can’t wait to read more.
