Tracey’s Review

Tara Jordan should be happy. After all, her best-selling book on how to have the perfect marriage is a hit, and her dream of being a successful author has finally come true. But her public persona is a far cry from true life. Her husband of many years, embarrassed by her book and jealous of her success, has left and taken all their money.

Left with no choice but to go on tour to promote both her marriage book and her suddenly successful romance novels, Tara is left in the capable and very attractive hands of Jake Randall, promoter extraordinaire. And, did I mention that he’s hot? Like, swoon-worthy, over-the-top sexy? And as attracted to Tara as she is to him. The only problem? He’s ten years younger than she is.

I really enjoyed Flirting With Forever. Kim Boykin wrote a sweet sexy story of a woman that is finally coming into her own, and the man that is more than happy to help her get there. The banter and vibe between Tara and Jake is lovely, and I couldn’t put the book down, because I was just that invested in their story. Combined with wonderful secondary characters, this is a read that I would recommend without hesitation. I really look forward to the next installment in Kim’s Island Bliss series.

Author Bio:

Kim Boykin was raised in her South Carolina home with two girly sisters and great parents. She had a happy, boring childhood, which sucks if you’re a writer because you have to create your own crazy. PLUS after you’re published and you’re being interviewed, it’s very appealing when the author actually lived in Crazy Town or somewhere in the general vicinity.

Almost everything she learned about writing, she learned from her grandpa, an oral storyteller, who was a master teacher of pacing and sensory detail. He held court under an old mimosa tree on the family farm, and people used to come from all around to hear him tell stories about growing up in rural Georgia and share his unique take on the world.

As a stay-at-home mom, Kim started writing, grabbing snip-its of time in the car rider line or on the bleachers at swim practice. After her kids left the nest, she started submitting her work, sold her first novel at 53, and has been writing like crazy ever since.

Thanks to the lessons she learned under that mimosa tree, her books are well reviewed and, according to RT Book Reviews, feel like they’re being told across a kitchen table. She is the author of The Wisdom of Hair from Berkley, Steal Me, Cowboy and Sweet Home Carolina from Tule, and Palmetto Moon, also from Berkley 8/5/14. While her heart is always in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, she lives in Charlotte and has a heart for hairstylist, librarians, and book junkies like herself.
