Moonlight Kiss

In McLane’s fifth novel set in Cricket Creek, Ky., sparks fly between a city girl and a handsome country boy. Addison Monroe, the daughter of financial guru Melissa Monroe, wants to avoid the paparazzi after her broken engagement in L.A. and decides to visit her cousin in the quaint town of Cricket Creek. There she meets Reid Greenfield, who left his successful financial services business in Lexington to help out on his family farm. After Addison decides to start her own bridal shop and consulting business, she works closely with Reid’s sister, Sara, who wants to use a barn at their farm to host wedding receptions. While the mutual attraction between Reid and Addison ignites the flame of their romance, Reid’s view of Addison as a snobbish, lazy L.A. socialite threatens to derail their budding relationship. Alluring love scenes begin with the simplicity of a kiss in this romantic southern charmer. (Nov.)
