 What I Thought... 
 I don't know how Jill Shalvis does it. This is her 10th Lucy Harbor book and each time it still feels like I'm reading something fresh and new. Shalvis takes a place I love and fills it with people that I can't help but care about. I absolutely love how she takes troubled characters and has them work through their troubles together and separately to make things right, all while having them develop a realistic romance. 
 It's In His Kiss meets all the requirements of a perfect end of summer read. A woman you could be friends with. A man you can't help but stare at (if only the real world were populated with ultra hot guys like Lucky Harbor is). A small town where everyone knows your name (and your business). The ocean. Hot guys to look at. And some feels. 
 Becca is just making a "pit stop" in Lucky Harbor and looking for a temporary job that she talks Sam into giving her. She was a little more standoffish compared to other Lucky Harbor ladies, but I did like her. She's also suffering from anxiety over performing in any type of situation. I really liked how the people of Lucky Harbor helped her with this without being obvious about it (except maybe Sam, at the end). She also has a secret that she's dealing with that causes her to be a bit jumpy. It takes quite awhile before she finally comes clean but you could just feel the relief poor off of her once she finally let it out. 
 Sam's "secret" is pretty much out in the open. His dad is a less than awesome father, always borrowing money, and when Sam was a kid he spent some time in foster care. Sam's dealings with his father were hard. You know that he had to be that way to his father but at the same time it feels like his dad is trying to make things better and you want Sam to see that. Fortunately Becca doesn't know how to mind her own business and stepped in a few times, despite what Sam wanted. 
 We also get to meet Cole, Tanner and Olivia, which promises to make the next two (and last two) Lucky Harbor books fantastic. The only thing I wished for more from It's In His Kiss was some more cameo's of characters from the previous books. There were a few here and there, but I always want more! And of course Lucille is still around... causing trouble on Pinterst now instead of Facebook. 
 Overall It's In His Kiss is a great end of summer read and I look forward to my next two trips to Lucky Harbor!
