Publisher's summary

Pine Valley librarian Livvy Harmon has big dreams, which include marrying Dr. Slade McKinney. Trouble is, he’s kissed her only once in their four months of dating, and it wasn’t all that great. But Livvy isn’t ready to give up yet on hooking such an amazing man, even though Slade seems to have time for everyone but her.

When Livvy keeps running into writer Mason Rowe, who seems to be camping out in her library to finish his book under strict orders from his agent, Livvy at first keeps him at arm’s length. But the more their friendship grows, the more she finds that her dream relationship with her doctor boyfriend isn’t so dreamy after all.

Perfect Narration

I read this book last year and just finished listening to the audio version tonight. The narration was perfect! Great choice of narrator.

I really enjoyed this story. I couldn't figure out the attraction between Slade and Livvy at all. On either side. Livvy is obsessed with marrying a doctor and that is the only thing that makes him likable. I think Moore does a good job of showing that Slade is generally a good guy but not ready for an actual relationship. I mean, they have been dating for months and he kissed her one time. And then not again. Usually once you kiss, you continue to have kisses. He didn't seem to crave her or her company. He is too involved in his work. But maybe someday when he meets the right person it will be okay. I loved how he wants to convince Livvy that she comes first with him and then answers his phone.

Livvy's obsession with Doctors could have ruined her life really. Unless she found one that wasn't married to his work. I was glad she figured it out before it was too late.

I really liked Mason. There were obvious sparks between Mason and Livvy. A much better choice for Livvy.

I was relieved with the ending. I was afraid that it would go a different way. Still a happily ever after but just different. The way it was written was perfect for their HEA. This book could be the premise for a Hallmark movie. Feel good style where everything ends up how you want it to.

No sex or violence
Language: a little, mild.

New dreams and romance

Sometimes, we think we know exactly what we want. But then someone comes along and proves us wrong.

That’s what happened to Olivia. She thought she had her life all planned out, marrying the doctor of her dreams, when in walks Mason, who turns her world upside-down.

I love the interplay of this match made in heaven. (I mean, seriously! A librarian and a best-selling author!) And the narrator did an excellent job of bringing the characters to life.

I’m looking forward to reading more of Ms. Moore’s stories.

(3.5 stars) - A swoony - & awkward - love triangle

It says a lot about the author's ability that I really liked Livvy & Mason because their relationship development is a little challenging.

Livvy has fantasized about marrying a doctor since she was just a girl - to the point that she is putting up with Slade as her boyfriend. Slade is so self-centered that it's infuriating & it's really hard to understand Livvy's willingness to put up with being the last person on Slade's priority list. As bad as it makes Slade look, Livvy ends up looking not just immature but like she's essentially trying to marry him for his job rather than him personally - not a gold digger, per se, but something akin to it.

She meets Mason, who's one of her favorite authors, and they find themselves attracted to each other. I'm not ok with cheating on a boyfriend/girlfriend, but Livvy didn't really have a relationship with Slade no matter what they called it, so their growing interest didn't bother me. There's an initial point where emotions overcome sense & I didn't actually have a problem with that either, BUT Felicity gives Livvy advice afterward about how she should handle it that was just wrong. And THAT bothered me. I get that Livvy needed time to figure out her own feelings, but she needed to be upright and tell Slade that since he was still calling.

I did enjoy when Livvy finally put her foot down on Dr Dreamy's "my patients can't live without me" crap. It was also funny how Dr Dreamy was defeated at the football game party by his own phone habit.

The romance is pretty passionate & the ending is really sweet! Sadly the author doesn't appear to do epilogues.

*Clean romance level: passionate kisses

(The narrator has a really nice voice, and did a good job with the characters)

Wonderful sweet romance

This sweet well written story was an amazing romance that was beautifully narrated in audible. I was hooked from beginning to end. The story focuses on letting go of old dreams and creating new ones. The characters have good chemistry, and a relationship develops and morphs into a HEA.

So so worth it

I was quite surprised how much I liked Until We Kissed. I’ve been in a reading slump and have had a lot of preconceived notions about the books I’ve promised to review which puts a damper on any book. I was so happy to find that the characters were real and fun and flawed. It was like watching a dating train wreck at times and I was cringing as I watched. I found myself waiting to see what would happen next. Great book. I will have to read the rest of the series.
4.5 Stars. Clean with great kissing scenes.

So sweet!

My kids were asking me once where I worked in high school and college and wondered why I never worked in a bookstore or library. Why didn't I?! I have no idea, but I was slightly jealous of Livvy's job as a librarian and what better flame to flicker than that with a writer.

Although there is a slight love triangle element in this book, that's the nature of relationships sometimes, especially when Livvy's dream since childhood has been to marry a doctor. Life rarely goes as planned and when Mason lands in the middle of her library, all objectives fly out the window.

The setting of this book was as cozy as a crackling fire on a cold winter's day and the romance was like a mug of steaming hot chocolate, filling my every nook and cranny with satisfying warmth. Mason's gruff, yet sweet, ways were a complement to Livvy's hopeful personality.

Loved it from start to finish!

Content: mild romance; mild language

I love this series

Until We Kissed Pine Valley book 6

Librarian Livvy has always wanted to marry a doctor and has been seeing Dr. Slade McKinney. Unfortunately, Slade seems to cancel their dates frequently. Writter Mason Rowe, suffering from writer's block, has come to Pine Valley work on his book. Livvy's library has become the spot where he finds inspiration. As Livvy and Mason's relationship grows, Livvy must decide if her dream of being a doctor's wife is really what she wants.

I am loving the Pine Valley series. This is book six and I have read/listened to three book out of order and they definitely can be read as a standalone. The books are very well written and the characters are well developed. Heather B. Moore is new to me but she has quickly become one of my favorite authors. I have been a fan of narrator Xe Sands for quite a while and continues to give an outstanding performance.
I was given this audio book at my request and am voluntarily leaving this review.
