Then a promise to a deceased friend sends him to the woman who can make his dream come true.<\/p>\n<p>Since her brother was killed in Vietnam, Angela Franco has been caring for her young niece. She never expected to fall in love with her brother\u2019s best friend, but when she meets Abe, she can\u2019t ignore her feelings for him. Having lost her brother, will she now risk her heart by planning a future with Abe?<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: Angela\u2019s Kiss was previously published as His Sister\u2019s Kiss. This is a re-edited version and contains additional scenes.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No sooner had Angela placed the basket of sliced bread and butter on the table than the doorbell rang.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll get it!\u201d Polly shouted, racing ahead of her aunt and pausing in front of the door. \u201cWho\u2019s there?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s Abe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Polly tugged open the door.<\/p>\n<p>Angela grinned at the sight of the towering Master Sergeant carrying two boxes wrapped in red and green paper.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbe, you shouldn\u2019t have,\u201d Angela said, glancing at the gifts he handed to Polly.<\/p>\n<p>Shrugging, he met her gaze. A shiver ran down her spine. She told herself it was from the cold, but would the cold make her tingle and buzz in places that made her blush?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome in and sit. Dinner\u2019s ready.\u201d Angela glanced at him over her shoulder. \u201cI hope you like macaroni.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen it comes to food, I like just about everything, but I must say, Angela, your cooking smells especially good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope it doesn\u2019t disappoint you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would be hard for anything about you to be disappointing.\u201d He held her gaze and looked almost sheepish before adding, \u201cMa\u2019am.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Angela\u2019s pulse skipped. This man liked her. She was sure of it. Not just any like. This was the deep-down, giddy, I\u2019m-thinking-of-the-wedding-night kind of like she\u2019d always dreamed about. Knowing this excited her so much that she was even willing to overlook him calling her ma\u2019am again.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing a deep breath, she took the food from the oven and told herself to get a grip on her emotions. Her brother was dead. This was his best friend who had come to offer some comfort. Maybe her mother was right. She was a dreamer getting desperate with longing for the impossible relationship she\u2019d imagined.<\/p>\n<p>The first chapter of this free serial is available to read at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/kate-hill.com\/readingspace\/\">Kate&#8217;s Reading Space<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!-- start LinkyTools script --><\/p>\n<p><b>Powered by Linky Tools<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkytools.com\/wordpress_list.aspx?id=289345&amp;type=basic\">Click here<\/a>\u00a0to enter your link and view this Linky Tools list&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angela&rsquo;s Kiss by Kate Hill Romance Blurb: Christmas Eve, 1967.
