If you enjoy a believable story...one you would give a teen to read then you will find it in this novel...it is not necessary to have the DESCRIPTIVE love scene to write a good story...full of humor...and people you would enjoy knowing .. this will keep you turning the pages ...and " burning the midnight oil"....

Great first story in the Bachelors and Bridesmaid Series

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2020

Kiss Me Forever is the first book by Barbara Freethy that I have read and I really enjoyed it. Kiss Me Forever is the first book in the Bachelors and Bridesmaids series, and I got it for free on Amazon. The description sounded like something that I would enjoy reading, and it truly was. I could not put it down. I am sure that I will be reading more of the books in the series. I love that the series is about a group of friends looking for love and being bridesmaids in the weddings of their friends. Barbara Freethy is an incredible storyteller. I loved every moment in Kiss Me Forever and could not put it down. It was a great story with amazing characters and incredible settings. Kiss Me Forever is the story of Andrea Blain, new reporter and billionaire and video game creator, Alexander Donovan. Alex has been selected as the World News Today, Man of the Year and Andrea has been given the assignment to write an in depth piece about him that goes beyond his philanthropy and playboy image. Andrea only has a couple of weeks to complete this assignment and probably keep her job. Her last investigation into faulty car seats was a waste of six weeks and nothing to write about. Andrea needs this assignment to prove to her editor-in-chief that she can handle it. Andrea and Alex are attracted to each other at first sight. They begin doing things together under the guise of conducting her interview, and a romance starts. As Andrea digs into his background with the help of a private investigator, she discovers secrets about Alex's past that he has lied to protect. Andrea confronts Alex with the facts that she finds out about him. Andrea must decide if she is going to write the story that would hurt Alex, advance her career, and ultimately destroy any chance of a relationship with Alex. I loved all the bittersweet and poignant moments in Kiss Me Forever and enjoyed all the surprise plot twists. I loved all the details about the wedding of Andrea's twin sister that are included in the story. I thoroughly enjoyed Kiss Me Forever and am looking forward to reading the other books in the Bachelors & Bridesmaid series.

family secrets, good story, no sex

Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2019

KISS ME FOREVER is a standalone read with a HEA. A romance but no sex scenes involved. Andrea is a young, single woman working as a reporter for a magazine. She is hard working, dedicated and determined to make her place in the world. She has issues with her mother and while being devoted to her father, she doesn't really know him. She is given the assignment of interviewing a self-made, bachelor millionaire. She has been told her job is on the line, she needs to get an in-depth interview or she can be looking for another job.

Alex has made his fortune off of games he has created. He is single and while being a most eligible bachelor he is not interested in forming a long term relationship. Alex has a lot of issues in his life. His childhood was cruel and just plain sad. His mother dropped him off at a church and never looked back. He was in one foster home after another. He was rebellious and angry. His life turned around with a woman look him in and helped him. He has never told any one this story and the public and press believes his parents were killed in a car wreck leaving him to be raised by an aunt.

Andrea starts digging in his life to find out his secrets. I have to say I did not like Andrea or maybe it was her profession that I did not like but yet she was passionate about her job. She was determined to dig up all of Alex's secrets and publish them in a big award winning article. She really didn't care who she hurt or exposed so long as she got her story and her push up the ladder. I lost a lot of respect for her character when she was torn over what to do. it seemed simple to me but she had to think on doing the right thing.

The story was very interesting and I suppose it was a lesson in what celebrities go through, having all their life experiences blasted out into the universe just so someone can "get the story". There were secrets that will have you wondering the whole time. There is a romance that is forbidden but yet still crosses the line. It is a good story. I found it entertaining and would definitely recommend it.

I was not paid for this review. I am not a writer nor do I know one. I am not kin to this author. I am a reader and this is my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. 3/19/19.

Sweet romance!

Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2017

Andrea is a writer that's been given one last chance. Her source for her story has disappeared & her employers want her to drop that story since it's taking too long. She's given the task of writing the cover story for the Man of the Year, Alexander Donovan. No one has been able to get more than superficial information on him & the editor is hoping Andrea can come up with more.

Alex is hiding his past. He's been able to keep the other reporters from digging deep but he senses Andrea will be different. He feels he has to keep her so busy she can't look into anything on her own. So why is he taking her to places & introducing her to people he usually keeps reporters far away from? Why can't he stay away from her?

I really enjoyed this one. The two main characters are both hurt by their past & have to learn to get past it. The chemistry between them is intense. The interactions between them & the secondary characters add dimension & additional insights into their character. Sweet romance!

Andrea was a reporter she'd Been given a assignment to write a piece on Alex Donovan a billionaire who happened to be picked as most elegant bachelor. Andrea soon found she had problems with Alex although he was polite he kept holding his past back she knew there was more to his life than all the other reported. It was a battle to gain information but they story he told he just wasn't what she wanted. She gained help by a investigator who found the story he told was just made up half truths about himself. She got angry with him and told him he'd lied later it got more complicated between them as they both truly liked each other. In the end things came to ahead and he told her the truth. They talked about why the lies and then he said he'd finished with the story told her to think about his life and the two people who could be hurt. This story has it all heartache upsets trust issues hope and finally love between the two main characters brilliant storyline keeps you reading.

A summer read

Andrea has been told by her boss she has to do a piece for their newspaper on a well known young millionaire. He wants something a bit deeper than the pieces he has already seen. Alex isn't going to tell her anything except he does because he really likes her. Then she finds out his secret and its whether she writes it or not. The story isn't bad it's just condensed into such a limited book that the characters don't get chance to develop.
