For the past few weeks I have been going through a terrible reading funk. I tried to find a book that would capture my interest but nothing seemed to snap me out of my reading funk. Well nothing until I decided to mozzie over to my bookshelf and pickup my copy of More Than a Kiss by Stacey Joy Netzel. Within the first few chapters of this book I was sucked so far into the story that the world around me completely disappeared.Sadie is running from under the thumb of her rich stepfather and her "gold-digging" mother. Sadie wants nothing more than to be independent and self made. Unfortunately the road to self made is paved with little money and lots of bills to be paid. When Sadie's sister Gemma falls ill Sadie has no choice but to fill in her sisters spot on a commercial set. Once on set Sadie is thrown into rich millionaire Zach Robinson's arms, and when the director calls action a passion ridden romance kicks off between these two characters that had me captivated; hook, line, and kiss, I mean sinker.Stacey Joy Netzel has a gift for writing and creating characters with amazing chemistry. The passion between Zach and Sadie was natural and realistic. Sadie is sweet and caring but not overly perfect where you want to kill her. Zach is, I'm going to say it, Christian Grey if he wasn't all crazy and 50 shades of spanking girls. By this I mean Zach is a young, rich, businessmen man in charge but with a softer side. Did I forget to say handsome? Oh yes, handsome he is! The push pull chemistry between these characters had me barreling through this book to find out the ending.The amount of conflict between Zach and Sadie literally made this book impossible to put down. I had to know if they were going to make it. I had to know if they were going to be together. I had to know if they would meet again! I finished the book in less than two days, because I just had to know. Not that I will tell you how any of these situations ended but you must find out for yourself!I definitely recommend this book to adult readers. More Than a Kiss is a hidden treasure, an undiscovered jewel in a pile of books. When I realized More than a Kiss had only six reviews I was shocked. This book is too awesome of a read to not be read by millions of people. You should definitely check it out. I am holding out hopes Stacey writes a sequel with Gemma and Matt.
