Sweet romance between two teachers at the local high school. Josie and Zach have been friends for awhile but their relationship starts heating up. Zach is the football coach and history teacher and Josie teaches English. Zach's players have to keep up with their schoolwork or they can't play football. Enjoyable romance.

Full review to be published online in mid September.

ONE PERFECT KISS is the eighth book in Jaci Burton’s heartwarming “Hope” series. Burton proved herself as such a writer in my difficulties in connecting with Josie early on, while at the same time seeing Zach as patient and understanding of her idiosyncrasies. As the story unfolded, the author drew me as a reader into understanding those idiosyncrasies and then reveling her acceptance of being loved and loving in return. All in all a very satisfying story.

This was an easy story to loose time in. The friendships were heartwarming and their camaraderie endearing. My gauge for a good writer is his or her abilities to draw out strong feelings towards characters, negative or positive.
