| Blind Kiss by Renée CarlinoWhat it's about: Penny and Gavin met in college when they shared a life-changing kiss as part of a psychology experiment. Despite off-the-charts chemistry, they decided they were better off as friends. Now, 14 years later, both wonder (not for the first time) if they made a mistake.
Is it for you? Bad timing and missed opportunities make for a long and winding road to romance for these unlucky soulmates. Fans of angst-y, high-drama reads will eat this novel up.
