With Just One Kiss

Book Four from the Seriously Sweet St Louis Series

In high school she’d been convinced he was her forever love… Never-married Christy Fairchild has built a career telling others how to keep their marriages together. She isn’t impulsive and getting married by Elvis in a Las Vegas wedding chapel to a guy she hasn’t seen in ten years isn’t how she rolls. Despite the unorthodox beginning to their life together, Christy is determined to make her marriage to David Warner work. David needed a bride and running into Christy after all these years seemed to be a sign.
Yet he couldn’t help but wonder if she could love the life he desired. Back in high school he’d ignored his heart and let the girl he loved walk out of his life. He wanted to give this marriage a chance. But could he trust his heart to the one woman with the power to break it? Embrace some warmth and kindness today with an award-winning story that will soothe your soul and make you smile!

This book was originally released as Wedding Bell Blues but has been completely updated for your reading pleasure.

“With Just One Kiss is the fourth book in my "Seriously Sweet St. Louis" series. While containing sexual tension and some kissing, these books have no consummated love scenes. You won't find any offensive language on the pages. What you will find are characters who learn and grow throughout the course of the story and who are rewarded with a happy ending.

These are heartwarming and uplifting stories. I have done my job if you close the last page with a smile on your face.

“This is another great book by Cindy Kirk in the “Seriously Sweet St. Louis Series”. It can be read as a stand-alone. It is so good to read a story that you have a hard time putting down.

A trip to Las Vegas for Christy Fairchild and David Warren ended differently than they could have imagined. Christy was there to lead a seminar and David was with his family. A chance encounter, a few drinks and discussions on the benefits of marriage for them both, led to a quickie Las Vegas wedding. Waking up sober the next morning had them shocked at what they had done.

Christy and David dated in High School. Christy believed at that time that David was her “forever love”. He broke her heart when he asked for his ring back right before High School graduation. Now they were married and Christy believed that marriage was a lifetime commitment. To really complicate things, Christy has made a name for herself lecturing on the institution of marriage, on ways to make marriages better and more importantly ways to ensure that a couple stayed together, forever. David’s grandfather wouldn’t sign over the family business to him unless he had been married for a year. Another complication is that Lauren, also an old high school friend of Christy’s, is in love with David and has been since high school as well. David had an engagement ring that he was going to give to Lauren while they were in Las Vegas but Christy got it instead. Much to Lauren’s dismay, David has always liked Lauren as a friend but he was not in love with her but he had been in love with Christy years ago and they still had that spark.

How this not-so-unlikely couple navigate married life and the various threats to their forever joy is what makes this story interesting. There are residual feelings, for sure, but can grown up Christy and David recapture the joy of first love? This story tackles all those questions, and then some, with the usual Cindy Kirk flair for storytelling. I got caught in our couple's new life, and wanted the very best for them. An extra treat was revisiting some characters from the series that I had met in other books.

It's always a treat to read Cindy's books, there are always life lessons to be learned and realizations to either remember or realize. To me, the joy of reading is always in what we take after "The End". Cindy's books never, ever fail at that.”
