Publisher's summary

Lia Carswell is good at what she does - even if it isn't as glamorous as her old life in Manhattan. The popular waitress works hard in a small Salt Lake City diner, with the goal of easing her sister's financial strain. And with her witty personality and good looks, she's something of an enigma to the male customers who vie for her attention. Ever the professional, Lia keeps her distance - with one exception. Aidan is a breakfast regular, and Lia's easy rapport with him draws her attention, though she would never let their relationship get serious - especially since he's not the only one trying to catch her eye. Her handsome neighbor Griff has been hinting that he wants more than a neighborly relationship.

Then her old New York artist life comes knocking, and an offer is made for a series of commissioned paintings. Lia knows it would ensure financial security for her family, but she doesn't know if she wants that life anymore. When she undertakes one final project, she reawakens her heart and soul. And as she finds herself falling in love and needing an outlet more and more, she realizes her paintings might be her saving grace.

Scenic Love Story

This is my second time through Painted Kisses. The first time I read it, the second was audible. The Narrator was a great pick. She helped place me in the scenes with her inflection and connection with the story. I am a sucker for a twisting and turning, good, clean, old fashioned love story. Loved it the first time. Loved it even more the second time. I would recommend it for age 14 and above. In fact, I have shared it with my daughter who also loved it. We are big Melanie Jacobson fans. Her work, is fun and flirty, and even sizzles, but in a clean way! And I love her for being able to make that happen! She weaves stories beautifully. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Unique and artistically romantic

Wow! This is such an utterly unique book and told so much through artistic emotions. I read the Kindle version and listened partially to the audible version. I loved both. I just really love Aiden and Lia — especially together!
