Review / Release Blitz: Kismet (Serendipity #2) by Carly Phillips

Release Date: February 24

Time has changed the girl he left behind—and the sexy woman won’t fall into his bed so easily.

Lissa Gardelli’s journalism career is about to take a big leap forward, thanks to scoring an interview with Wall Street wonder, Trevor Dane. There’s just one hurdle: keeping her identity a secret until she gets in the door.

Trevor Dane has arrived—corner office, seven-figure income, and women at the snap of his fingers. A profile piece in the News Journal is just icing on the cake. Until he lays eyes on his interviewer, the high school sweetheart who’s haunted his dreams for ten long years.

The sparks between them still burn, and business quickly ignites into pleasure. But Lissa is keeping one last secret…one that could either solidify their reunion, or drive them apart—for good.

Note: Kismet was previously published under the title Suddenly Love by NYT bestselling author Carly Phillips. Contains a woman who’s clawing her way up from the bottom, a high-powered broker at the top of his game—and one little secret he never saw coming.

MY REVIEW

Lissa's life has changed drastically since the last time her high school sweetheart saw her. Now she's in his office to write an article on him. Over the years since they broke up, he's never let his family give him info about her, so he's spent the years thinking something about her and her life that is patently inaccurate. When he realizes he's had the wrong idea about her all these years, he realizes one thing - he still wants her, still loves her. Now to convince her she feels the same.


Lissa's never gotten over Trevor. Seeing him again after all these years is making her realize that and it's going to be hell following him around while writing this piece on him. She knows he's never forgiven her for what happened back in high school, so the last thing she expects is for him look at her with that familiar heat in his eyes. Will she allow herself to fall back into his arms again? Or will the most precious part of her life be the main obstacle in their path?

I love second chance love stories. And this re-release is a prime example of why. It was obvious from their first on page reunion that they still loved each other, but getting to the happiness they deserved was not an easy journey. Trevor had insecurities that all the years and his success had not completely abated, and Lissa was obviously not sure how they could ever make a relationship work, with all the pain that lay in their past. I love this couple and their second chance, and am impatiently waiting for Nash and Kelly's story next, Destiny.

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
