Kiss Me Now by Melanie Jacobson

Book Description:

He’d be the perfect guy…if he wasn’t trying to ruin her life.

Ian would do anything for his grandmother, so when Gran suddenly announces she’s leaving the family property to her pretty new neighbor, Ian is on the case. He’ll use every one of his sharply-honed skills as a private investigator to expose the gold digger and save Gran.

Brooke is living her best life far from the city and career that tried to destroy her. She’s happy spending her summer renovating the house she inherited and gardening with her elderly neighbor, Miss Lily. But when Miss Lily’s handsome—and obnoxious—grandson shows up, making wild accusations and dragging up Brooke’s past, Brooke must convince Ian he has her all wrong.

But what happens when their chemistry proves even more dangerous than Ian’s accusations?

Escape into this fresh new romantic comedy full of two-time Whitney Award winner Melanie Jacobson’s trademark wit and warmth.

Rorie’s Review:

Imagine moving to a new community, becoming good friends with your neighbor, minding your own business, then all of a sudden, your neighbor's grandson comes down and accuses you of trying to scam his grandma! Would you take it well? I would not. I am a little too good at holding grudges, so I think that Brooke handled the situation pretty well, all things considered. 

This was a fun book to read. I really do enjoy a good enemies-to-friends-and-maybe-even-more type of story. Miss Lily stole the show time and again with her wit and wisdom, and it was a lot of fun watching Brooke and Ian's relationship develop. I definitely wouldn't be sad if her teacher friend got his own story some time in the future as well. :)

Andrea’s Review:

This was a perfect get-away during a long drive. I very much enjoyed the enemies-to-friends (and more) relationship between Ian and Brooke. 

Ian’s love for his grandmother was endearing. Her desire to be a matchmaker due to her love for him was also endearing. Her spunk was a great addition to the story.

Brooke had so many layers and it was enjoyable getting to her core and finding out what had made her leave her DC life.

The small town setting and people were also great. I am looking forward to learning what’s next.
