A nice set of cute and funny stories. The characters were interesting and unique and the plots moved along nicely. Overall a good start to the Kissed by the Bay series. *I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and this is my voluntary and honest review.

As usual you can’t beat Susan Halter for a cute and fun chic lit book or books. All quick reads and you will find you will read each one after another.

The three books in this boxed set, set in Blue Moon Bay, spoke to me. I loved them and couldn't put it down!
All three women and men, after much denying and misunderstanding, meet "their forever person".
As always, Susan Hatler hits the mark! I recommend this boxed set to all! Susan does not disappoint.
Thank you Susan Hatler, Hatco Publishing and NetGalley for this advance copy in exchange for my honest feedback.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Highly recommend this book to everyone. Can't wat to read more from this author.

Kissed by the bay box set is based around Blue Moon Bay, each book focused around three childhood friends Wendy, Olivia and Charlie, who drifted apart but get to meet again.

Every Little Kiss - Book one - focuses on Wendy after the loss of her beloved Gran who after passing unexpectedly, left stipulations in her will for Wendy to return home to Blue Moon Bay to run the inn for one month, then to sell the inn. Book one details the legend of Blue Moon Bay, where legend claims kissing by the bay under the blue moon will find everlasting love.
Family frictions come to the surface through various events.

The Perfect Kiss - Book two - fast forward in time, this book focusing on Olivia. Olivias trying to set up a successful business of her own, which leads to her running a women's retreat, she desperately wants to get out of her market job.

Just One Kiss - Book three - fast forward again, focusing on Charlie's character.

Each book to me, seems to follow the same storyline, different characters, same gist. I can't decide what genre it should be, it doesn't seem to me to be Romance woman's fiction, sometimes it feels more young adult, but not all.
For me personally, I found it started okay, but I found it more of an effort to keep reading. Seems to repeat itself a lot at times, and I found the terms of endearment used a bit irritating, certainly for books one and two. I wanted to enjoy this, but these books really weren't what I'd hoped for, for me. Would've given 2.5 stars if possible, but feel too harsh giving 2.

Three delightful chick lit romances set in Blue Moon Bay, California. If you love gorgeous awkward women who live their small community and their friends, then this is a box set of three such stories. They all meet men that they weren't necessarily looking for and between their insecurities and some awkward pratfalls or blurting funny thoughts you find men adoring them.

It's pure escapism.

As always, this author speaks straight to the heart and soul with her magically romantic and charming stories. This set is no different. Well done. 5/5 stars

All three books in this series were so sweet and very well done. I love the way they all blend into one another so it was easy to keep track of who everyone was.
