Kissing Games of the World
Written by Sandi Kahn Shelton

A free-spirited artist finds herself protecting her home--and her heart--when the estranged son of her recently deceased landlord returns to claim his territory.

"Kissing Games of the World has the shape of a classic romance, in which opposites at first repel, then attract, and after many ups and downs find love. It's been done countless times, but rarely as engagingly as Shelton does it in this novel.”
--The Boston Globe
