One Kiss: A Riverbend Lighter One

A small-town, best-friend’s-sister, age-gap, grumpy, sunshine, contemporary standalone

Confirmed bachelor—that’s what I’ve become.

Life is safe and predictable. After all, Riverbend doesn’t exactly have a roaring social life or an influx of women looking to be the wife of a farmer.

Hold on.

I’m not looking for a wife—or even a girlfriend.

When my best friend tells me that his little sister, Devan, is moving back to Riverbend to teach science, I envision the little girl with pigtails, freckles, and an annoying urge to be wherever her older brother was. Of course, that was twelve years ago when she was ten years old.

Newsflash. Devan is no longer a child.

Imagine my shock when I learn that she is the woman who disappeared after one passionate kiss—one I couldn’t get out of my head.

Once I realize Devan is my mystery woman, I can’t walk away.

The problem is that she’s my best friend’s little sister, ten years younger than me, and definitely off-limits.

What will it mean for my friendship if I pursue my feelings?

Can one kiss change everything?

One Kiss is a stand-alone, age-gap, best-friend’s-sister, small-town, forbidden contemporary romance set in Riverbend, Indiana, and one of Aleatha’s Lighter Ones. Sit back and enjoy the hijinks as Justin’s safe and predictable world is turned upside down.
