***This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review.***First of all I just want to say this book is the perfect beach read! It’s a fun, sweet, sexy, and it flies right by!Kissing Eden was a sweet story about finding love when and where you least expect it.After a breakup with her boyfriend, Eden decides to take the spring break trip they'd planned together in an effort to 'get away.' Unfortunately, she runs into more heartache and trouble. And then, ending up at The Palm Palace, she finds even more heartache and trouble!I really liked Eden. She was easygoing, but could be a spitfire when the occasion called for it. She wasn’t afraid to try new things or go after what she wanted!When Grey comes on the scene with his moodiness, Eden rises to the challenge. It's obvious from the beginning Grey has a tough road ahead of him and he's feeling the burden of trying to restore and simply maintain The Palm Palace. It was left to him in less than stellar shape, and he’s having a hard time keeping up with it.Grey was a bit harsh at times, but I thought it really was a reflection of his circumstances. It wasn’t until he finally gave in to his attraction to Eden that we got to see the playful and sweet Grey.I thought the pacing of this book was spot on. It always felt like something was going on, and I really enjoyed Eden and Grey's characters, even if they were a bit stubborn at times! The love scenes were hot, and the secondary characters in this book were so much fun to read about! The 'locals' were a hoot, and there's just something I love about a good bonfire scene!I loved this book, and if you are looking for a light, feel good read, I think you will, too!
