Favorite Quotes:
Do me a favor and don’t compare me to the women you date… Or whatever you do with them. We all know the only reason you even remember their names is that you take them to the coffee shop in the morning and then read what gets written on their cup.
She told me not to mistake her silence for weakness, that no one plans a murder out loud.
I actually like being single. I get to be selfish with my time and personal space. I can leave the top off the toothpaste and sleep like a starfish.
“Don’t worry honey,” someone said from behind her in line. Eighty-something Mrs. Winslow, who lived on the third floor of the building. The older woman smiled knowingly. “He’ll appreciate your toys. But remember, it’s all fun and games until someone loses the key to the handcuffs.”
I know diamonds are supposed to be a girl’s best friend… but then leggings happened. Leggings are the new diamonds.
My Review:
This was my first Jill Shalvis experience, silly me, I have been missing out. I adored her clever wry humor, breezy storytelling, and endearingly flawed and quirky characters. About That Kiss was a delightfully entertaining and engaging read that was easy to follow and never failed to hold my interest. Despite being the fifth book in a series, the story stood alone and on solid terra firma. And I while I never felt lost or confused without previous knowledge, I am sure I would enjoy going backward and acquainting myself with the earlier stories of this lively and alluring group. Each chapter was titled with a popular line from a movie that never failed to bring a smirk to my face if one wasn’t already in place. More, please.

I’ve heard so many great things about Jill Shavis, but I’ve never read one of her books. I may have to change that.
Great review and giveaway. We’ve reviewed the others in the series but not this one yet.
“Each chapter was titled with a popular line from a movie” I like this. There’s another series I read where she uses bumper stickers and tshirts.
I love the quotes! Always bring a smile to my face! 🙂
