Kiss Me Again was a great second chance romance. The chemistry between Rachel and Grayson was undeniable.They were meant for one another. Can’t wait for Olivia and Aiden’s story.
Kiss Me Again is a good second chance love story. It has a drama, and plenty of emotion. Rachel and Grayson were great characters. She is from a privileged family, who likes to control her life, while Grayson is from the other side of the tracks, out of the military and dealing with PTSD. They had some obstacles to overcome, and I was pulling for them to get their happily ever after. Looking forward to the next story from this author.
I shouldn’t have started reading this book when I got in bed. I became fully engaged with Grayson and Rachael’s second chance at love story. The author created a story that exudes drama, pathos and heat. Grayson and Rachael shared youthful but real romance that ended. Their paths diverged, each leading very different lives. When the two meet once again their attraction to one another reignites. The pair are dealing with personal issues that they will have to overcome, along with recriminations and emotions. Their journey is nuanced, incorporating self discovery and growth. Of course all the intense chemistry makes the story even better.
Grayson and Rachel its a heartbreaking, emotional read with twists and turns and it takes you along with each chapter it pulls at you emotions and will bring tears to your eyes. With each new thing you learn it tells you what they have gone thur to be what they are now. Amazing read that will not disappoint when you read. Can’t wait to read what she has next
GRAY AND RACHEL ARE HOT!!!!
Grayson Sellwood is an ex-Navy Seal with serious PTSD from his time in the war..He is now a park ranger in Washington…And, he can’t forget the girl the left…
Rachel Black, Grayson’s ex-girlfriend, is rich but wants more than her family company….She interns as a geologist at a park in Washington for the summer….and she finds the boy she couldn’t forget is now a man…a HOT man….Happy summer to Rachel…
I liked this one but I swear to god,I wanted to throw my phone a fey times while reading it.
Rachel and Grey were dating while Rachel went to college and Gray was serving army.Then one day,Gray simple had disppeard from Rachel’s life and she did the only thing she could,moved on.
Years later,we learn that Rachel is daughter of a very rich and egoistical people(one sentence was enough for me to hate them).After finding her boyfriend in bed with another women,Rachel accepts a job at summer camp.There she meets Gray again and old feelings are back in the game.
This book was super easy to read and very likable.But I had one very big problem:Rachel.She knew how to be annoying.She went to camp,into wildness and brought two eye shadow pallets????Are you serious??Who is going to pay attention on your eye shadow in the middle of woods?And she let her parents meddle in her life a lot of the times.I’m never going to be able to understand that.It took her a lot of time to tell them to f**k off.
Other than these two things,I really enjoyed this book.
Kiss Me Again – a captivating, emotional, second chance romance from Vivian Wood.
For the last five years, Rachel Black has been living her life on autopilot. Living the life her parents want for her but it’s not necessarily the life she wants for herself. When the opportunity arises for her to get away and do something she wants, she jumps at the chance.
For the last five years Grayson Sellwood has been barely surviving. After a traumatic experience which led to a medical discharge, his Navy career ended. He left everyone behind and started again in a job that wasn’t so demanding, a job where it’s okay be alone.
Rachel’s summer job puts her in Grayson’s world.
How will she react to seeing the man who left her and broke her heart? How will he feel about seeing the girl he’s thought about every day?
A summer of them working together, will they be able to do it? Be in each others lives with all those feelings still there. All those questions that need answered. Rachel is still hurting and Grayson is still healing, can they help each other?
It’s a summer neither one of them will forget – for the right or wrongs reason, read their story to find out.
I loved reading every word of Kiss Me Again, even though some were heartbreaking. The storyline was gripping and had me hurting for the love they lost and then had me rooting for them to find that love again.
Altogether a brilliant read, that I really enjoyed.
Kiss Me Again is such a heartwarming story. Rachel and Greyson has a second chance at love when they meet again unexpectedly. They fell in love when they were younger but coming from different backgrounds, their love was fated to be doomed. I really loved this book, Rachel and Greyson are such an incredible couple. I can feel their emotions through Ms. Wood’s writing.

Amazing second chance! This book is defiantly an emotional rollercoaster with all of its highs and lows. From love to heartbreak, new love to out of love and then a heart stopping surprise! You won’t be able to put this book down.
Sensitive and sexy second chance romance.
Grayson and Rachel are one of my favourite couples. They’ve both struggled with their parents and turned out amazingly strong in spite of them, even if their family financial backgrounds are complete opposites of the financial spectrum.
Together, they were everything, until they weren’t, and it was heart-breaking to see how Rachel coped with her grief, betrayal and anger. She couldn’t possibly understand what Grayson had suffered, and I admire Ms Wood’s writing of his ordeal and achingly slow recovery. There is a lot of healing to be done between, and for each of them, and I loved way they re-discovered each other during some not only sensitive discussion, but during some pretty hot moments in that national park!
This book has bought together my favourite facets in a romance. Second chances, military and dual POV, and the setting of our couples book was absolutely fantastic. I don’t know much about Rachel’s career of choice, but I loved the aspects of her job and tie in what I know about the job after speaking with our company’s environmental adviser.
I can honestly say that I always enjoy Vivian Wood’s books, and she is one of my must-click authors. While I can’t pin-point exactly why it’s not a higher rating for me, I still absolutely recommend this book as a great read. It is also the first standalone book in a series, and I’m looking forward to our next couple’s story. 4 Stars.
This author amazes me every time with her impressive writing. This is one of my favorites by far. Grayson and Rachel used to be together in the past and kept in touch with each other for a bit while he was deployed then just disappeared all together. She runs away from her ex and family to find who she is when they bump into each other again where hes stationed. I absolutely love these two together and that they get a second chance. So amazing.

O.M.G ! ! !
This book is one of the best I’ve read so far by Ms. Wood if not the best at all!
It’s highly emotional…, very intense…, with characters that seem to step out of these pages at any moment…
The conflicts the characters, Grayson and Rachel, have to work through, the twists of the plot, all of it kept me on the edge of my seat until the end of the book!
Wow… just W.O.W ! ! !
This book clearly is a MUST READ!
3 1/2*
Rachel isn’t sure she’s on the right path, yes her parents are rich she’s living with her boyfriend Clay that should be enough?
An offer in the post couldn’t have arrived at a better time.
Grayson never expected to see Rachel again, he’s hidden away from his old life for so long but can he face his past?

Second chance love
Loved this book and it is one you NEED to READ—you won’t regret it! This is an amazing and beautiful second chance love story that was so well done—it was entertaining, but also was heartwarming, full of emotional angst, scorching love scenes, and a compelling storyline. Vivian Wood you did it!! You delivered an addictive, intriguing love story that totally blew me away! I wasn’t expecting the turn this story took; it has quite an unexpected revelation that may leave you flabbergasted but it is jaw-dropping good! Rachel Black is from a very wealthy family who was somewhat rebellious, but her world is about to implode. She has done everything her father wanted—education, etc., getting engaged to a now ex-fiancé who cheated on her, and even suffered a broken heart after Grayson Sellwood left her five years ago to join the Navy Seal. Grayson Sellwood burned with guilt after five years of not contacting Rachel and telling her his secrets of why he could not contact her. Rachel is broken, her spirit battered, and her confidence at an all-time low. Now, is time for a change—Rachel goes to Olympic National Park for the summer as a geologist collecting water samples for her father’s company. Unbeknownst to her, Grayson Sellwood is working there as a park ranger. Will Grayson every tell Rachel his secrets of not contacting her five years ago? This is a story that stays with you. This is a story about love. This is a story about second chances. This is a story about forgiveness and healing. Sit back and be ready for a crazy ride. The storyline is fluid, and it will pique your interest.
I Loved it it just sucks you in and Grayson and Rachel are dealing with so much in their life that torments them everyday with so many emotions and a huge second chance that’s like a miracle in the making along with dangers and a very controlling family. These characters had a rough start and I liked how they were pushed together. The writing is great and development was outstanding.
This is one of my favorite books by Vivian Wood. It was full of so many emotions and was written perfectly. Rachel and Grayson had so much working against them in the beginning and there second chance was much needed because after all the sadness the only balm they needed to soothe what was broken was each other!

Second chance romance about former SEAL Grayson and Rachel, who has a wealthy controlling family. Their teenage love was strong, in spite of Rachel’s family’s disapproval, and Grayson’s deployments. Fast forward to the present, and Rachel has good reason to want to move on with her life; the circle of control has gotten bigger, responsibilities weighing more heavily, and her future is mapped out. When Rachel and Grayson are thrown together, we watch them come to terms with their past, and ponder the future. I liked Rachel and her “try anything” spirit, and her defiance towards her unbearable parents. Grayson is still healing, and I think we have just seen the start of his growth. It’s great to see a strong yet very emotionally vulnerable male. I enjoyed the plot, which heated up unexpectedly near the end.
