I have to say that I am blown away by the amazing group of talented authors that the Loveswept (Random House) team have got in their stable. From the awesome and brilliant Ruthie Knox, Elizabeth Barrett and Toni Aleo, to the stunning writing of Lauren Layne.I have rated every novel I have read 4 or 5 stars from this publisher, and this book is no exception. Loveswept authors provide you with books that are captivating, well thought out, have original and engaging characters and themes. I also love that a lot of them form a series, and I am pleased to say that After the Kiss is book 1 in the Sex, Love & Stiletto Series.We are introduced to Julie in the first book in this series, she’s your typical girl about town, likes to date but shies away from getting serious with anyone. When her editor sets her the challenge of taking that step further in order to write an article for the magazine she works for she accepts.Shortly after she meets Mitchell, the anti-guy to what she usually goes for, he likes to read, run, wears a suit, glasses and works in a boring job on wall street, he is also hiding a secret or two of his own with regards to his reasons for looking to date her.Although they are both the total opposite of what they would both consider their “type”, the chemistry is explosive and rather than just being in the name of reporting Julie develops feelings for Mitchell, and that’s where things become complicated.As is ever, the case the path of true love never runs smooth, and I enjoyed every chapter of Julie and Mitchell’s story.You also see glimpses of Julie’s friends and colleagues Grace and Riley in this book, and I am pleased to see that the continuation of this series focuses on Grace’s story in Love the One You’re With, due for release in December 13.I can’t wait!ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for the above honest review.
