Its hard to write a review for this book- sometimes I liked it, sometimes it annoyed me, & sometimes I just didn't get it. But I kept reading so that says something I guess. I think it could have used a lot more editing- some things were repeated 2 or 3 times on one page. I think if it had more editing the story would be a lot smoother & more enjoyable

All in all- not bad.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Excellent book for readers interested in light romance. Not alot of angst or what I like to call "rollercoaster romance!"

I just finished reading the book "Candy's Kisses." I enjoyed the book very much, and I would highly recommend it to my friends. All of the characters in the book are unique and have a pivotal role in this book. They weave in and out of the lives of the two main characters, adding to and and detracting from their chance of romance. There are sexual scenes in the book, but it is not over the top. I liked the fact that the woman is portrayed as a strong woman, able to voice her own opinions, and not dependent on a man. However, she also very much wanted the traditional family, with a husband and children. The main male character was portrayed as both confident, hard working, yet tender and loving. He was close to his family, but held a grudge against those who he felt had caused great pain to his family. The author did a nice job of allowing the reader to watch the male slowly realize how much this grudge and anger was affecting his life - it didn't happen over night, but he did get to a better place. I think all of us have something that we are holding on to that we would like to get over, and this book emphasized that it is possible, with the help of family and good friends. Overall, this was an enjoyable book. It was easy to read, had great characters and kept me interested until the very last page.. I enjoy books that portray positive, healthy sexual relations between a man and a woman, and this book did not disappoint. If you enjoy these types of books again - this book is for you - take a look! You won't be disappointed!

This is an ok book, totally unbelievable. I just could not really believe that in one weekend 2 people that have nothing in common fall in love and move in together. Then you have all the things that do happen that weekend, Audrey who is Levi's pregnant friend has a fit because candy was at his home and he had sex with her. What?! Who was she to decide when she was pregnant with his enemy's baby. Jack was right, he was actually funny, he said how it was. Danny was sweet, and that is actually who Candy should have been with in my opinion. I did like her friend Erica. However, if she was my friend had humiliated me like she did by telling all my guy cousins about the kiss thing, I would have killed her. Anyway besides the sex, Levi and Candy really did not talk much, and she gave up everything for a Neanderthal.

Love this funny/emotional read. There's certain moments in the book I would laugh or smile. Candy and Levi met on a blind date set up by her best friend. They have nothing in common since she's a city girl and he's a farm boy. As they spend time together they realize they can offer each something they both need. Levi has secrets and Candy has insecurities but once they realize they can't live without each they trust in their love. I would love to see books about the other characters in the book. Recommended read.

Not a bad story, but one of the longest weekends in history! Just kept going on and on with one occurance after another. I also did not especially like the characters. Both had whiny attitudes and their surrounding cast of friends and family were rude and somewhat abusive. The main woman, Candy, had an obsession with grabbing men between the legs. Kept my interest enough to finish, but would not read again. Would recommend this book if you like a soap opera type storyline.
