BOOK SUMMARY
For years,
Jack Sawyer’s family has been running their upscale seafood business like a
finely tuned machine. But every machine breaks down eventually, and suddenly
Jack needs a new office manager, a new kayak launch, and a new lease on life.
Then Grace Donner shows up again. She’s smart, motivated, and perfect for the
manager position, but if she’s anything like her mom, she can’t be trusted. And
Jack has never been able to trust himself around Grace.
Grace hasn’t
seen her former stepbrothers since their parents’ messy divorce, but she never
forgot them—especially Jack. She misses being part of the big rambunctious
Sawyer clan, and if there’s an opportunity to set things right, she means to do
it. But she can’t ignore Jack’s irresistibly kissable lips, or the searing way
he looks at her when he thinks she’s not looking. Their chemistry is more
explosive than ever. And if the Sawyers can forgive and forget, anything is
possible.

EXCERPT
Jack reached
for a folded blanket beside the cooler and laid it down on the open floor of
the boat. “I know it’s not the most comfortable surface for lying back, but I
thought we could look at the stars. It’s a favorite pastime of fishermen, you
know.”
“Oh yeah?”
He reached
for her hand to help her lower to the floor. She held on to his tightly,
surprised at how off balanced she felt. Then they lay back together, close
enough that they touched. The soft hair on Jack’s arm resting against hers
aroused her senses.
Were they
really just going to look at the stars?
Yes, it was
all very romantic, but so was doing other things under the stars. Things she’d
been thinking about since stepping aboard.
Jack pointed
up at the sky and started to speak. Grace was tired of talking, though. Tired
of resisting what she wanted, and right now all she wanted was Jack.
Unable to
help herself, uninhibited by the wine and the romantic environment, she rolled
on top of him and crushed her mouth over his.
Judging by
the stiff protrusion that met her inner thigh, he wanted her just as much.
“Well, hello
there,” he said, smiling against her mouth.
“I’m sorry,”
she said, even though she didn’t mean it.
His hand slid
down her back and settled on her bottom, pulling her snug against him. “I’m
not. I’d decided tonight was for romance only, but I can’t think of anything
more romantic than making love to you on this boat.”
White-hot
heat tore through her. She was so hot that maybe it was time to start
stripping.
As if reading
her mind, Jack tugged the hem of her shirt up on her back and then over her
head. The rest of her clothes fell away in the wake of his needy hands until
she was tipsy and naked on the floor of his pontoon boat—on a boat ride to
nowhere in particular, except his body was promising to shoot her to the
low-hanging full moon.
CAT'S REVIEW
"Forbidden Kisses" by Annie Rains. This is book one of a new series for Ms. Rains and I think it's off to a good start. For the most part, I liked the main characters - Grace and Jack. Simply put, Jack was a sweetheart and wore his heart on his sleeve. He was struggling with a big loss yet still reached out to help those that needed it. Grace, overall was a good person, but she did irk me a bit throughout. The choices and decisions she made at times didn't sit well with me, however, these choices, of course, added to the plot. The story itself is one of forgiveness and dealing with the past but also of hope and love and family. There are several secondary characters that added to the story as well. I am looking forward to Noah and Sam's stories, hopefully coming up next. Ms. Rains' writing style is fluid and a delight to read. "Forbidden Kisses" should not be forbidden in you are itching to read a story that will have you cheering from the sidelines for our couple to make it to the finish line.
