Their chemistry inspired a generation. It's been nearly a decade, can the spark be revived?
Jameson and Kinsey were sizzling hot magic together on-screen in Forever Kisses nine years ago, but as their relationship continued off screen, the real drama began. With the paparazzi chasing them down for every stolen cup of coffee together and their entire relationship being broadcast through tabloid channels, the relationship quickly fell apart. Hearts were broken, harsh words were hurled and ugly rumors spread like wildfire through the silver screen world.
Forever Kisses was destined to become an instant cult classic, but Jameson's and Kinsey's careers weren't so lucky. The pair, who were once considered box office gold, were being whispered about as poison.
Now, they each need a box office hit, and Sawyer Croft, Forever Kisses' director, is convinced he has the perfect project. Will Jameson and Kinsey find that chemistry they once had or will this be the final piece of heartbreak, the end of the movie and quite possibly their careers?

This is a book that I had a lot of mixed feelings about. On one hand, I liked the characters for the most part. I felt that they had some great background and depth. One the other hand, I didn't necessarily like the path that the plot took during the course of the story. There were things tied to the plot that just got under my skin while I was reading and I couldn't shake them. I didn't hate the story, but I didn't love it either. Mostly, I think that it's just a case of personal preference. "It's me, not you" sort of deal. I would recommend reading it for yourself for that reason. Overall, I enjoyed their love story but could have done without some of the plot points in the book.
Excerpt
I stared out at the rowdy, spontaneous party going on around us, but all I could think about were his hands touching me, his arms holding me against him. So this was what Cassie meant when she said the rest of the world peeled away and the only things left were the two of us. It was as if nothing else existed at that moment, just Jameson and me, moving slowly around the dance floor. We were no longer moving to the rhythm of the music. We were just moving in unison, pressed closely against each other, dangerously close. Every part of me reacted to his touch. The strength of his arms, the warmth of his body, the scent of his soap, it was all so damn intoxicating I couldn't help but fantasize about Jameson taking my hand, pulling me back to his trailer to rip off my clothes and restart where we'd left off nine years ago.
