Review: **SPOILER ALERT**  Flawed Storyline Falls Flat
Rating: 2 out of 5

Not blatant spoilers, but there's just no other way to say it without being obtuse. I hope most readers realize that this book does have an HEA so it's not a huge stretch to figure out the ending.  I am a fan of the other "Kisses" novels that I've read, so it's just this book that irks me.  Also, I'm not a huge fan of fantasy, but I'm willing to accept it if done right.  This wasn't.The summary explains that Kimberly is going to go back in time to save her love from dying during Desert Storm.  She is cautioned that going back in time and changing anything can be dangerous, so it really annoyed me that she decided to it without a moment's consideration of the consequences.  Even Hermione and Harry Potter are more careful with the Time Turner and that was only hours, not years back in time!Of course, there aren't any consequences, because Kimberly gets a second chance after screwing up her first shot.  This time the fountain fairy sends her back to the right place in time to get a chance to save Tony.  And what they do to save his life is what I really don't like about this novella.  Tony is in the 101st Airborne, for Pete's sake.  Any decent soldier (or let's say, any man worth being in a relationship with) would NEVER do what Tony did.  Dishonorable. Period.And worst of all, there are essentially zero consequences for Kimberly's life-changing decision.  I thought perhaps one of Tony's friends would end up taking his place in Iraq (not Dean, of course, of there wouldn't be "Champagne Kisses" so I suppose it would be Matt).  This is where the whole plot just fell flat - it all wrapped up a bit too neatly with a shiny bow.I am hoping this book was an aberration in an otherwise fine collection of romance novels.
