Growing up together in Crystal Rock, Wisconsin, Ashley Mitchum & Brian O’Neill have been at odds for years. Conniving and sometimes cruel when she doesn’t get her way, Ashley is someone Brian doesn’t want to feel attracted … to feel attracted to.
Ashley’s the first one to admit she’s been spoiled rotten by her family. Brian has interfered with every relationship she’s ever had, but yet she’s never had the courage to tell him off.
It’s the summer after high school graduation, and one more week before Ashley will be moving to California for college, while Brian will be entering the army. The dynamic of their relationship suddenly changes when they share a haunting kiss.
Ashley finally realizes she’s been avoiding admitting her feelings for Brian because she’d have to make a serious commitment. But Brian is determined to make her understand they belong together, despite splitting up and focusing on careers.
But tragedy strikes when a Ponzi scheme is exposed, the accused being none other than Ashley’s father, who’s supposedly run away with Brian’s mother. The situation becomes more complicated when Ashley’s best friend’s father commits suicide after supposedly losing every penny in the scheme.
Forced apart by circumstances, Ashley and Brian are fatefully reunited in Crystal Rock ten years later. Will unveiling their families’ dark family secrets heal two wounded hearts?

That Incredible Kiss is a sweet romantic mystery by Tamara Ferguson set in the seaside town of Crystal Rock. With great characters who grab your attention from the very beginning, the book features some exceptional examples of character growth, particularly with the main character. Ashley first is depicted as a bratty, spoiled teenager, but ten years later she’s grown into a strong and talented woman. The male lead, Brian, is an utterly decent vet who served his country well for ten years and who eventually returns to his home town with a knee damaged from the war. As you might expect, these two characters who grew up together but were parted due to traumatic circumstances, are reunited in the present day of the story. Their relationship quickly spirals into a spicy romance.
The drama and romance was very enjoyable in That Incredible Kiss, but what really got me hooked and kept the pages flying was the “inanimate character,” the spooky old house filled with secrets and surprises. Boy was that fun, finding hidden tunnels that went all the way to caves on the shore, secret drawers and nooks where mystery-related incendiary books were hidden, and watching the gigantic old barn be transformed into a Halloween extravaganza for the town. I especially loved that Ashley developed construction skills and could demolish or build a wall as well as any hard-hatted guy. I also loved the cat, Spook, who lived in the creepy mansion.
A quick read, this one kept me turning pages. Great job, Tamara Ferguson!

That Incredible Kiss is the third book in the Kissed By Fate Series by Tamara Ferguson. This book can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend all of the books by Tamara. I live in northern Wisconsin and I always get a kick out reading her books when she mentions places I know. I have to say I fell in love with this book the moment I started it and it kept me enthralled right until the end. This is definitely my new favorite of Ms. Ferguson’s books.
Ashley and Brian are powerful characters and watching them grow out of tragedy is a wonderful thing. If you love romance, these are the books for you!
That Incredible Kiss is book 3 in the Kissed by Fate series by Tamara Ferguson. This book, like all of hers, was great. I love her books, and recommend to anyone who likes a good quick romance. They are romantic but clean, and have good storylines that come together perfectly. This, like most, takes place in Crystal Rock, a small town in Wisconsin. This book was a good balance of romance, drama and mystery, and I was quickly hooked. This book is the story of Ashley and Brian, who shared a kiss 10 years ago in high school. Each had plans to go their own way, Ashley moving away for college and Brian joining the army. They are brought together again 10 years later in present story. I love the story and the characters were well written, along with some great supporting characters. Highly recommend this book, and all of Ferguson’s books. You wont want to put it down
THAT INCREDIBLE KISS (Kissed By Fate Book 3) by Tamara Ferguson
Another romance in Crystal Rock, there is something magical there and I hope the magic doesn’t end any time soon.
Ashley and Brian have known each since they were kids and just when things start moving forward something happens to tear them apart for several years. Thankfully that is just the beginning of their second chapter.
There is so much that happens that is tied to the past for both Crystal Rock and Ashley and Brian and it wasn’t anywhere close to where my mind took me.
This is a great series, not over the top with the romance or the suspense. Can’t wait to who falls next.
That Incredible Kiss is the third book in Tamara Ferguson’s Kissed By Fate series and I have been waiting for it for such a long time! I absolutely love her Crystal Rock and Dragonfly Pointe universe and this book is a great addition to it!
This Kiss, I mean book, is Ashley and Brian’s story and it folds over so many years, 10 years to be exact! They are graduating from high school and decided their next steps and finally acknowledging what they feel for each other when they world gets blown apart … it stays apart for 10 years until both of them have returned to Crystal Rock. It is finally time to figure out what the heck happened 10 years ago and go forward … hopefully together … with Spook in that amazing house by Stone Lake …
Dig in and it would be smart to read the stories in order though I would say that it is not only this series you should read but also the other ones (Tales of Dragonfly especially) as they all seem to come together now … or is it so …
THAT INCREDIBLE KISS (Kissed By Fate Book 3) by Tamara Ferguson
4 out of 5 stars
The fabulous Tamara Ferguson never fails to deliver an amazing story with complex characters, a well-developed storyline, and an overall tale that has your heart crying for more. The third book in the Kissed by Fate series, That Incredible Kiss, is another notch in her belt.
Ashley and Brian and two amazing leads who snag your heartstrings the minute you meet them. Ashley took a bit to grown into, but knowing how Ferguson writes, I knew that this character’s development was worth waiting for. Brian is a war veteran who is both damaged and traumatized. These two characters meeting again, after years apart is a balm for the soul and the heart. Add in a twisted mystery, a spooky cave or two, and a house with more secrets than the government, and you have a top-notch story.
I loved every minute of this book. This book is great for lovers of romance, suspense, thriller, and mystery genres. 4 out of 5 stars.
I have read many books from this author and I’m yet to be disappointed and to be honest I don’t think I ever will be! This is the third installment to the series and can be read as a standalone. Wow Tamera is such an talented author, there is nothing like a novel that once you open up the first page and within a chapter your hooked and completely lost amongst there world, that is one of the reasons why I’m so passionate about reading! I love how it’s an easy read filled with romance, drama, deep dark secrets so much emotion packed into this read it is definitely 100000% worth a read!!!!
That Incredible Kiss by Tamara Ferguson is book three of the Kissed by Fate series. This book! I couldn’t put it down!
Ashley and Brian fought their attraction to each other for a long time. They shared one moment and everything seemed like it would line up even though they were both leaving after high school. Not everything is as easy as that and their family drama inevitably gets between them. Ashley matured from the spoiled young girl to a very strong independent woman. That’s the woman Brian meets again when he returns to Crystal Rock ten years later. Will their family secrets and drama keep them apart again or will they be able to move passed it?
I really enjoyed this book. Ashley wasn’t exactly my favorite at first but seeing how she grew and matured changed my opinion of her. Sometimes life experiences force you to grow and adapt. Ashley is a strong one. I highly recommend this book!
I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind. This is the third book of the kissed by fate series. You can read this book as a stand alone but there are previous characters in this story as well. I love a good young adult book but this author always exceeds my expectations. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately and I couldn’t put it down until the end. It only took me a day to devour this incredible book.

Ashley and Brian had a rocky start when they were at school, a brief kiss has played on both their minds ever since graduation. Brian then served his country and now finds himself back in Crystal Rock but will a chance meeting with Ashley brings back all those memories from back then.
Ashley was self centre as a girl growing up but as the years have gone on she has become a independent and strong woman, until one chance meeting with Brian all these years later may have her thinking anything is possible.
There are no words that I have already not expressed regarding this great author, all her stories draw you in and have you feeling you are living the relationships with them and this book is no different. I loved the way you are glided along with there story and get to see this relationship develop as you weave through the wonderful world of Crystal Rock and Dragon pointe Inn with the secondary characters just makes you feel like you want to visit this beautiful place.
This book can be read as a stand alone but to be honest you need to read everything by this woman there is never a bad story and they always make you want to read more by this wonderful author, go check her out.

That Incredible Kiss is the third book in the Kissed By Fate series by Tamara Ferguson. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone and contains a complete story. I have read the 2 previous books in the series and many of the Wounded Warrior books, all of which are set in the town of Crystal Rock and have become a huge fan of her work.
I love Tamara Ferguson’s style of writing and have loved every book of hers that I have read and That Incredible Kiss was no different in that I absolutely loved it. It’s always great to be back visiting Crystal Rock and the Dragonfly Pointe Inn. There have been so many amazing characters come from these stories and I loved reading about 2 new characters Ashley and Brian.
That Incredible Kiss is a fantastic second chance romance. Brian and Ashley got together at the very end of high school but then were forced apart. Now it’s 10 years later and they are both back in Crystal Rock.
I loved reading Ashley and Brian’s story. As with all the books set in Crystal Rock, there is so much more going on than just the romance story and there is a great storyline going on along with the romance between Brian and Ashley. Like the other books by Tamara Ferguson that I have read, I was totally hooked on this book from the very beginning and did not want to put it down.

I loved reading the book That Incredible Kiss (Kissed By Fate 3) by Tamara Ferguson. It is a story that pulled me in right from the start and didn’t let me go until the final page. I loved the characters of Ashley Mitchum and Brian O’Neill. Ashley first comes across as a young girl who always wants things her way. She could be considered as selfish and self-centered. As the story progresses, she turns into a young woman who is strong and independent. She has never forgotten about Brian. Brian is a young man who has served his country. After an injury, he finds himself back in Crystal Rock. Much to his surprise, he has a meeting with Ashley. What does the future hold for Ashley and Brian? Will family secrets get in the way of their reuniting? Read this book to find out. This story has suspenseful moments as well as romantic ones. I grew to care about Ashley and Brian with each chapter that I read, and I couldn’t help but want them to find happiness. I also enjoyed the additional characters that are introduced. Most of them are helpful and friends with Brian and Ashley. Don’t miss out on a story that has mystery, danger, and romance. It is exciting and entertaining to read. I highly recommend it.

That Incredible Kiss is the third book in the incredible ‘Kissed by Fate’ series by Tamara Ferguson. As expected, his is another fantastic addition to the series- Ms. Ferguson never fails to deliver a captivating read- and this story had me engrossed right from the get-go. A story of fate, tragedy, separation, dark secrets, romance… and so much more.
The characters are so well developed, interesting, and endearing. I love being able to re-visit Crystal Rock and Dragonfly Pointe through Ms. Ferguson’s stories- and this story was no exception.
This is Ashley and Brian’s story, who have a history together. A rocky start turns into something that held the promise of a bright future- but tragedy ripped them apart. It’s taken 10 years, but they are finally reunited. Will fate allow them a second chance to be together? What happens when secrets are revealed?
This is a fast paced, quick, and easy read. The author packed a lot into the story- in a great way- making for a wonderful read!
Thank you, Tamara Ferguson!
That Incredible Kiss is book three in the Kissed by Fate series by Tamara Ferguson. I like this author’s style of writing and the stories that are easy to read, relate to and get lost in.
This story was a fantastic addition to the series. The characters were a complex pair and Ashley was hard to like at the start. Brian I liked instantly and I just adored how the story evolved. Their journey was full of mystery, mayhem and sizzle. Their chemistry out of this world. A full and absolute and it had strength, lots of personality and immeasurable entertainment. 5 stars.
That Incredible Kiss by Tamara Ferguson is the third book in the Kissed by Fate series. This is a brilliant example of a well written, romantic story that has everything in it you could want. The author has done an amazing job of leading you to believe you know what the story is going to be about only to surprise you as you get further into the story.
I loved the relationship between Ashley and Brian as well. It was so sweet to watch it developed throughout the story and I couldn’t help but get behind them. I found that I read this book pretty quickly because I became so immersed in it I completely lost track of time and ended up reading it all in one sitting.
This is a great addition to the series and another book by this author that I have thoroughly enjoyed.

I think it’s fair to say I don’t even bother reading the synopsis for the books now by Ms Ferguson, I just grab it and settle down for what I know is going to be a wonderful read and as expected this was just that. I love how even after so many great stories everyone feels so new, nothing is repeated, no storyline is the same and every character is unique but they are always likeable and relatable.
Ashley and Brian’s story was heart-warming to read, a perfect second chance romance. When they reunited after some time apart I could just tell that they were prefect for each other, their connection was sweet and genuine. I was definitely lost in their story and was rooting for them the whole way through.
As always I highly recommend this and any book by this author, I am never disappointed by her writing and would definitely urge people who haven’t picked up on of her many books to do so!!
THAT INCREDIBLE KISS (Kissed By Fate Book 3) by Tamara Ferguson. Once again this author knocked me off my feet with a story I loved every minute of. Ashley and Brian pull you so completely into their story you may find it hard to believe it’s all words in a book. Each character brings something unique to the storyline and are so well developed I felt an instant connection. This isn’t my first book by this author but I’ll be honest it is definitely in my top 2 favorites of her books. This one had a bit of a different feel to me in all the right ways. I found myself lost in the pages and not caring how long I was there for. I simply couldn’t put it down. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything and the characters are incredible. Five huge stars and highly recommended. Can’t wait to see where this author takes readers next!
