For a girl who shares her name with a princess (aka Sleeping Beauty), Aurora Skye’s romantic life seems fathoms away from a fairy tale. Sure, she’s landed her prince charming, Hayden Paris. And she got her wish—one first kiss with all the knee-trembling, butterfly-inducing gloriousness she’d hoped for. But instead of happily ever after, their second kiss landed Hayden in the emergency room. If that’s not mortifying enough, the whole school is now referring to her as "Lethal Lips."

When Aurora's best friend decides to run for class president and offers up Aurora's matchmaking service as one of her campaign initiatives, the kissing games begin. Aurora has to convince everyone that her program works—but that might be hard to do when it seems like her own love life might be falling apart.

My Review:

I received a copy of this book from a Goodreads giveaway. But I got the opportunity to participate in this blog tour. Which made me happy because I loved reading this book and the first.
How To Keep a Boy From Kissing You


Kissing Games picks up where How To Keep a Boy From Kissing You ends. With a continuation of our main character's new relationship with her prince. And her friends, and the Find a Prince/Princess Program.
In KG (as I will be referring to it from now on) we see how Aurora has grown up and matured. With her new boyfriend, her matchmaking program, and the abandonment issues she developed with her mother leaving her and divorcing her father. We also get to go along with her as she dives into the uncharted waters of kissing and dating Hayden. Hurting him and embarrassing herself in front of her father and his new friends along the way. But also how she struggles to believe just how much Hayden cares about her.

They re too cute in the first book, but in KG their relationship grows and flourishes. There are some definitely swoon-worthy scenes. Abd we see Hayden as a sweet and caring boyfriend. Winning a place on my book boyfriend list.
