Sam Cooper ("Coop") has just become the most eligible bachelor in NYC. Now that he has foiled a jewelry-store robbery and has been rewarded with the ring of his choice, single women all over the city are fawning over the crime reporter. But Coop isn't interested in the admirers sending racy underwear his way. His attention is centered solely on Lexie Davis, the only woman in the city who claims not to be interested.
Instead, free-spirited Lexie is interested in Coop's antique ring, and its-potentially scandalous-history in her family. But Coop is quickly becoming more than just her route to the ring. When his investigation starts to uncover the truth, will she trust her heart-and her family secrets-to this most eligible bachelor. 
I'm slowly getting back to my roots - Contemporary Romance. I've been on a PNR kick for a while and have neglected the genre that got me interested in reading. For shame! I loved Phillips' Hot Zone series and was excited to see that the first book of her latest series was available at NetGalley.
You know the saying: "Guys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses." That's not the case when Coop meets Lexie for the first down. He's instantly attracted to her which will help working with her investigating the ring he recieved as an award that much easier. Lexie and Coop are complete opposites; she likes to travel and tries to be a free spirit like her grandmother. She doesn't even have her own place. Coop is settled, not very adventurous and doesn't take chances. But they one thing they have in common is mutual attraction.
Kiss Me If You Can is a cute romance story. The sexual attraction between Coop and Lexie felt natural, not forced. Lexie's scheming grandma, Charlotte, stole the show. Her antics with her BFF Sylvia were hilarious! My favorite scene is when Grandma Charlotte texts Lexie using text slang. "Invite ur young man to dinner." Lexie didn't know that her grandma knew how to text.
I enjoyed this book. It's your typical contemporary romance. The mystery surrounding the ring was a no-brainer. I had it figured out early during the book. But it was a great way to build on the relationship between Lexie and Coop and include the crazy antics of two old ladies who mean well.
