Slick's review: 
 I loved the first book in this series so much and I was hoping that Skye Jordan would deliver again with the second book, Wild Kisses, and she did big time. There was so much I loved about this story that I don't even know where to begin, I will say it moved me to tears but not the romance part, I loved the complete adoration and trust this couple had for one another before they go involved, and despite some ups and downs and even when it might have been best if they didn't stay together they realized the hits were worth it to have one another, that my friends is what love and romance are all about. 
 After seven years of trying to make her marriage work to a man who really wasn't interested, Avery Hart is back home in Wildwood and working to open the cafe and bakery in what was once her father's bar, one that comes with a bad history. She is counting on word of mouth to get her business off the ground on a good start and on her contractor to complete the remodel on time so she can begin to get some much needed cash flow going. 
 Trace Hutton is happy to have the job remodeling the cafe, he needs the work so he can continue to take care of his father whose dementia is getting worse and to hopefully prove himself to the town that the ex-con really does know what he's doing and get more jobs. He knows he's done a great job so far, but the attraction he feels for Avery is making things hard and the fact that she seems to feel the same way has disaster written all over it. 
 Both Avery and Trace are trying to move on from their pasts and while Avery's isn't bad, just the fact that she ran off at 17, got married and is now home divorced at 25 give the town gossips something to talk about. Add in the fact that she is turning her late father's bar into a cafe and bakery and she feels like she can't go anywhere without it setting tongues to wagging. Trace went to jail at the age of 22 for illegal drug possession and even though he's been out for awhile, people still see him as an ex-con and a druggie which couldn't be further from the truth. The attraction between them burn brightly and when they finally cross that line they both think it will be a one-time thing, but that isn't the case and before long things happen that brings their affair to light and casts doubt on not only Trace's life but on the business Avery is trying to build. 
 I really loved these two together and felt that they gave each other a soft place to land in their busy lives, but it was also the fact that they both were working so hard to prove to themselves and the town that they were capable of being more. It was almost like and us against the world type of thing and it was so easy to root for these two to not only win but to show everyone just how fantastic they both were not only in their own lives but together as a couple. 
 There was something very uplifting about Wild Kisses and once again Ms. Jordan has given readers a smart, sexy, and spectacular romance!
