Saltwater Kisses- Can anything taste sweeter than love?
When small-town girl Emma LaRue won a vacation to an exclusive tropical island, a last minute cancellation meant she would be going by herself. Shy and studious, she never had time to fall in love, and often wondered if she was just meant to be alone. However, that all changed when a handsome stranger literally walked into her life while on … into her life while on the beach and sparks began to fly.
New York’s most eligible billionaire bachelor Jack Saunders thought this vacation would be the perfect escape, one last hurrah, before taking full control of his father’s company. When an innocent Emma didn’t recognize him, he figured that he might get a chance to have a vacation from being rich. He didn’t tell her about the cars, the yacht, or the penthouse. All he did was let her fall in love with him.
Soon, Jack found that he was the one falling in love with Emma. When they enjoy a fantasy marriage ceremony on the beach, they thought it was a bit of harmless fun before returning to their normal lives. A bittersweet goodbye was supposed to be the end of their perfect vacation romance, but when photos of the ceremony were leaked to the press, everything changed.
Feeling lied to and thrust into a world of wealth and privilege, Emma must choose between following her dreams or following her heart. Will she be content at being nothing more than the billionaire’s wife, or will she return to her normal life with only memories of saltwater kisses?
He pushed me back until I bumped against the door. His mouth skimmed my jaw, down to my throat, his teeth grazing my skin and his five-o-clock shadow scratching gently. He pressed a thigh between my legs, sending heat through my belly and then south. I whimpered for more, the noise low in my throat.
“You want to invite me in?” he whispered in my ear. Goosebumps ran down my arms, but not from cold.
“Why? Are you a vampire?” I asked with a wry smile.
He didn’t answer but instead kissed me again, drawing me to him like a magnet. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled on my waist, guiding me through the open door. He released me and I felt woozy on my feet from his kisses. The door thudded softly shut and I licked my lips.
He was perfect in the moonlight. His shoulders were broad, tapering into a tight waist and an ass that my fingers itched to squeeze. The darkness and the wine made me bold, my desire growing by the minute. His eyes caught mine and he smiled, knowing that I was checking him out. Those eyes turned up the flame growing in my belly, now spreading north and south, filling my core with need. The sexual tension wrapped around us like taut guitar strings, filling the room with vibrating desire.
His hands grabbed my hips again, pulling me into him with strong fingers. I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, tangling my fingers in his hair as we stumbled towards the bedroom. A part of me told me that I should stop, that I should think this through, but the other voices in my head quickly drowned her out; I wanted him more than I wanted to breathe.more
I adore Krista Lakes’ books. If I’m ever feeling down, her stories always perk me up, and leave me feeling happy and glowing. It’s a special kind of author that can really transport you into the pages, and Saltwater Kisses is a perfect example of that. With lots of love, happiness, and plenty of beach, I’m looking forward to reading it again this …
What better book to bring to the beach this summer than Saltwater Kisses by Krista Lakes? This is THE feel good romance, and every time I re-read it, I just fall in love all over again. I love Emma and Jack, I love their romance, and it just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
What a lovely read this book was.
I have never read anything by this author before but will be looking for more from her in this series.
It all seems like a fairy tale until real life rears its head.
Emma is a small town girl and wants to be a veterinarian.
Jack is a multi-billionaire, living in New York and will be taking over his father’s …
I know you don’t want to hear it. And I don’t want to know it, but this romance will never last. The Cinderella tale never works. Because as much as we don’t like our lives of drudgery, we wouldn’t like their lives of superficiality even more. I’d hate to go to the gym like it’s a part time job. Then fill the rest of my time with shopping. Being a …
I cannot wait to read more from this author. I didn’t want this story to end! The characters are so genuine and you can feel their emotions. Fantastic book.
Emma won a wonderful vacation on a island she would never be able to afford otherwise. Jack was a billionaire that was trying to escape for a week before taking over as CEO odd his father’s oil and gas company. Emma doesn’t read gossip magazines so she has no idea the very handsome very nice man she just met on the beach is. They spend the week …
The story is basically broken into two, vacation and real life, and the difference is realistic, well if your a famous billionaire that is. The romance and passion between these two is extraordinary. I found it to be an absolutely stunning read.

Loved this book! Wanted to go on vacation there…very descriptive. Loved the characters and the happy ending!
Verypredictable and uninteresting
An easy to read romance, but not too original. Read it when you are under the sun, on a beach, for more inspiration.
Girl wins big time$$$
I’ve read over two hundred books and by far this was my favorite. I loved the story. If you like Nicholas Sparks you will love it. The authors style is engaging.
Great. Vaajmmmmm
