What if it’s Love by Kinsey Corwin
Justice Morgan is unlucky in life and love. Her father is a drunk and no date ever lasts beyond the first. So when she unknowingly commits to taking over the kissing booth and annual bachelor auction, she finds herself overwhelmed and seriously out of her element. Kissing half the town wouldn’t likely change things in the romance department, but when Merrick Hudson’s lips touch hers, there is an undeniable spark she can’t seem to forget.
Merrick Hudson likes to keep his life unattached and uncomplicated. It made things so much easier. Especially for a man who was left standing at the altar. As a result, he takes risks in every area of his life except romance. So single life it was, and Merrick was perfectly happy to keep it that way. Or so he thought until the kissing booth incident. Now all he can think about is how the kiss rocked his world. But his past is threatening to undo all he’s accomplished.
All’s fair in love and war, but will Merrick and Justice be the same when the dust settles?

Merissa
He is captivating.
A walking contradiction with dark ink hidden beneath an expensive three piece suit.
A man who visits my dreams, a frustrating reminder that he is unattainable.
He has a girlfriend.
He walked into my life for a reason, a forbidden indulgence, maybe.
The universe is surely not that cruel.Seth
She is breathtaking.
A woman who intrigues my mind and body.
Thoughts of her breathe life into my days, and exhale fantasies at night.
She makes me want things I’ve never had, but always desired.
She’s more than just a blip on my radar.

It’s the kind of thing you’re supposed to push down deep and cover up with one-night stands, sarcasm, and booze…

Problem is, those two people have families and fears and pain that spill into every moment of their lives, control what they do and who they are. And if either Carson or Laney can’t free themselves from the past, they’ll both be pulled under by it.
