Blog Tour + Review: "Only One Kiss" by Natasha Madison

I am thrilled to participate in the blog tour celebrating the release of "Only One Kiss" by Natasha Madison, the first book in her new Only One series. This book reads as a complete standalone, though it does appear to be a spinoff from Madison's earlier This Is series and features cameos from some of those characters. Even so, readers (like me) who are new to Madison's work will be able to start here without feeling lost at all.

I absolutely loved this funny, sweet, heartwarming, and heartbreaking story with its wonderful characters and engaging plot. I read most of the book in a single afternoon because I didn't want to put it down! It only took one chapter for me to fall completely in love with the male lead character, Ralph. The way he doted on his baby daughter Ariella was totally swoon-worthy. It was also incredibly endearing how awkward he was around his love interest, Candace, when they first met.
 

Candace was a genuinely kind and caring person, but even so, she was very good at standing up for herself and expressing what she wanted in life. I loved how she immediately fell under the spell of Ralph's baby daughter and treated her as if she were her own. She couldn't resist Ralph, either, despite knowing the obstacles they'd face in trying to build a relationship, but the attraction between them was too strong for either of them to ignore. Before he met Candace, Ralph was just existing for his daughter's sake; Candace was like a ray of sunshine who helped him move past his grief and guilt to find the happiness he so richly deserved. 

"Only One Kiss" was the first book I've ever read by Natasha Madison, but it certainly won't be the last. I highly recommend it for all fans of emotional contemporary romance and look forward to the next book in the series.

About "Only One Kiss"

From USA Bestseller Natasha Madison comes a brand new hockey series, The Only One.

Ralph
Being traded to Dallas was a dream come true. I had everything I wanted, my game had never been better, and my wife was due to have our baby any day now.

What could go wrong?
Everything.

I was now raising our baby on my own. After hockey practice and games, I didn't have time to sleep, let alone make sure my social media was up to par.

I never thought I'd get a second chance at love.

Candace
When my hotshot brother was drafted in the NHL, he didn't have time to do his social media, so I took over for him. Little did I know it would become my career.

My plate was full with over fifty NHL players, and I wasn't taking on any new clients.

Yet when he showed up on my doorstep with the cutest little girl in the whole world, I couldn't say no.

I was just helping, but it turned into more than that. He's the man I've been waiting for.

All it takes is one touch, one night, one chance, and only one kiss.
