My Thoughts:
Kiss Me Crazy has a little bit of a different feel to it from the first two books in the series. First of all, we have our first Fitzgerald man in KMC, and hello Baron! *swoon* Secondly, KMC is more of a romance; much lighter on the suspense and action and much heavier on the romantic elements. Readers who enjoyed the other books for the combination may be a little disappointed, but where those areas lack, the development of the relationship between the two main characters, Kara and Baron, totally makes up for it.

I have to admit that I am a pure romantic at heart, and while I like a good romantic thriller, I love an old-fashioned love story. Ednah Walters totally delivers in this are for Kara and Baron's story. Baron is Kara's boss, and when Kara decides to leave to pursue her dreams (with the added benefit of  breaking free from the disappointment of forever being invisible to Baron), Baron decides that he just can't do without her. However, falling in love with her was the last thing he expected when he set out to change her mind and win her back professionally. 


There isn't a dull moment through the story. Both characters are well developed, witty, strong, and likable. I had no problem identifying with Kara and her mission, and I loved that she was strong enough to follow her heart, no matter which direction it took her and how her plans changed. Baron was every girl's dream. He was smoldering and sensual. I loved watching their relationship grow and develop. Ms. Walters delivers a story that will melt any romantic heart. I have to admit that this was my favorite of the series... so far!

Summary from Goodreads:
She's used to putting everyone first—her sister, her friends, her boss. It’s now her turn...


Art conservator, Kara Michaels has decided it’s time to chase her dream—start her own business restoring and framing works of art. She has the skills, the nose for business, and the pent-up frustration from being invisible to the man she wants but can’t have—her boss.


He’s a meticulous planner whose rule book is about to be tossed out the window...


Baron Fitzgerald, a successful art dealer and Kara’s boss, believes in having a strategy and following it without deviation. So when Kara tenders her resignation, he sets out to convince her to stay. Baron soon realizes that falling in love cannot be planned, but the insight comes a little too late for him and Kara.
