Let me start off by saying, you do not need to read the first three books in the Hot in Magnolia series by Minette Lauren in order to understand and enjoy Gingerbread Kisses. However, I do HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you do because that’s basically what I want to do right now after reading this fantastic book!
If you’re new to my reviews, let me say HI. I LOVE ROMANCE NOVELS. Sometimes I’m rather picky with the ones I read, and sometimes I leave myself open for what may. Sadly, sometimes the latter comes out with less than desired results. But happily - that wasn’t the case with Gingerbread Kisses!
This lovely book had so many aspects that I loved. It was steamy and swoon-worthy! I absolutely love when a romance story can give me the happy feelings. One would think that the focus of this story would be purely on Ginger and Roland, but there was a great mix of also having some focus on Noah and Lexie. Like a lot of readers who did not start with the earlier books of this series, I didn’t realize that Noah and Lexie had their beginning in a previous book at first. However, Lauren does a wonderful job in roping in their story with the present meaning that I didn’t feel slighted in the least when it came to their bits in the story. I definitely want to know more though, so I plan to revisit them when I am able to read the rest of the books in this series.
I enjoyed the background of this story - the small town setting juxtaposed with Ginger’s “big time” problem made for a fun and entertaining story. There’s honestly nothing I love more in my romance books than a great combination of quirky characters, angst-lite drama, and just a great deal of chemistry between the characters. I am such a character-driven reader and Gingerbread Kisses gave me that and so much more with it’s small town feel. There is a perfect balance for me in this book, and I recommend it to all readers who love romance stories with quirky and lovable characters.
