Safe Kiss

Some loves arrive like fireworks, dazzling and impossible to ignore. Others arrive quietly, asking only to be trusted.When Emily is old enough, her mother, Emma, leaves her a letter she hopes her daughter will never truly need. Within its pages lies the story of a young woman who mistook excitement for love and walked away from the one man who offered her peace. As Emma searches for the life she believes she deserves, she is drawn into relationships that leave her heartbroken, betrayed, and stripped of everything she once held dear. With every wrong turn, she finds herself drifting further from the life she dreamt of, until one day she reaches her lowest point and comes face to face with the man she left behind.Told through a mother's deeply personal reflections to her daughter, The Safe Kiss is a moving contemporary romance about first love, painful choices, forgiveness, redemption, and the courage to begin again. It is a reminder that the loudest love is not always the truest, and that sometimes the greatest gift we can receive is not the kiss that takes our breath away, but the one that gives us a place to breathe.
