I practically broke my One-Click button when I saw a new Kisses book from Krista Lakes. I knew I was in for a surprise, but I wasn't expecting to be bowled over by a beautiful, enchanted love story. This book is amazing new territory for Lakes because it combines the sultry sweetness of the prior Kisses books with a little of the magic in her other romances.I remembered Kim and Tony's tragic story from Champagne Kisses, and I hoped there was some way Kim would find happiness. I never expected her to get a second chance through a supernatural fix, courtesy of a magic fountain that grants wishes (the theme of the Fountain of Love books). Before she knows it, Kim is on her way to try to save her man and her shattered love by keeping him off the deadly battlefield.Handsome Tony is no phantom. He's very, very real, from the way he gently loves Kim to calling her "Ladybug." There's some real conflict as she tries to carry out her miraculous mission. But beneath it all, there's a miraculous love story, the kind of heartwarming read that's become Lakes' sweet, sweet trademark.I enjoyed this lovely fusion of her two styles and I hope there will be more. These Kisses are an uplifting and deeply romantic treat no matter if they're grounded in stark reality or as magic as love itself. I'm so happy these two get a happy ending after it seemed impossible in Champagne Kisses - but I'm not gonna tell you how. You'll have to read this book and find out!
