Top 5 Kisses in Books

Welcome to part two of Valentine’s Book Love. This time we are sharing our Top 5s:

I’m sharing my Top 5 Kisses with you guys. I love kissing scenes in books, they are so magical, special and unique. First kisses are always wonderful, but there are others as well. So here are my favourites. I have two others in my head as well, but these books are not out yet, so...

1. Bree and Jack in Surviving the Rachel by Aven Ellis

This is by far my favourite kiss ever!!! It is one of the sweetest and most beautifully described kisses and romantic scenes ever. Their feelings sparkle and they are surrounded by these fireflies - just magical. The tension is building up and when the moment comes it’s just the two oft hem – AMAZING!!!

2. Kayla and Jackson in Sleigh Bells in the Snow by Sarah Morgan

This is one oft he most passionate and also erotic kisses ever, without leading stratly to making love. The scenery and the surroundings are beautiful, outside in the forest, there is snow and a beautiful waterfall.

3. Meg and Johnny in Johnny’s Girls by Paige Toon

Meg and Johnny are one of my fave couples ever! They have lots of great kisses, but the one that stuck with me, was the one in the grass in Johnny’s Girl. It’s passionate and just full of love.

4. Savannah and Asher in The Vixen and the Vet by Katy Regnery

I love their picnic scene; the atmosphere is magical and adorable. They start talking and then get closer and closer to each other. When they finally are in each other’s arms the sparks fly and then they kiss. It’s a tender and sweet kiss and it’s very emotional.

5. Harrison and Kylie in Waiting For Prince Harry by Aven Ellis

Yes, Aven Ellis again, but she just has a real talented when it comes to describing scenes like that. This kiss is so passionate, it comes a bit out of the blue, but it’s intense, hot and sexy. The way the whole scene stars and ends is also surprising, which made the kiss even more special.

Valentine's Day Q&A with Aven Ellis

1. Have you ever written a Valentine’s Day scene? If yes, tell us more about it.

Yes! In Connectivity, William and MK spend their first evening alone together in a chic hotel bar in Chicago, enjoying a bottle of wine in front of a fireplace. It’s still one of my favourite scenes I’ve ever written.

2. What would your perfect Valentine’s Day date be?

Dinner for two at a nice restaurant with a bottle of wine.

3. Your favourite couple in a book?

I really loved Jack and Emma in Sophie Kinsella’s Can You Keep A Secret?

4. Your favourite kiss in a book?

I can’t really remember one I read-but I can say I just wrote a kiss for Dallas Demons #3, Breakout, that is my favourite one I’ve written so far.

5. Your favourite TV/Film kiss?

Jack and Rose in Titanic. Best kiss EVER.

6. Do you like Valentine’s Day?

As a romance writer-of course I do!

7. Your worst date ever?

Oh easy. I was set up once in college, with my good girlfriend swearing she found the perfect guy for me and we’d totally hit it off. Turned out to be the most awkward date of my life. The guy didn’t talk. At all. (I’m a talker.) And we had zero in common. No common likes. Or even mutual dislikes. It was a disaster.

8. Your best date ever?

Dinner at the Ritz Carlton in Chicago. That was fantastic!

9. Your favourite romance movie?

The Holiday, Titanic, Just Like Heaven, and Return to Me. Love them all!

10. The best Valentine’s present you ever got?

A bottle of Tiffany perfume.

Thank you Aven for answering our questions.

About the author

Aven Ellis has been writing fiction since she was sixteen. She studied communications at a large Midwestern university, and after graduation, Aven worked as a reporter for a community newspaper, followed by a stint at a public relations agency.

But writing about city council meetings and restaurant franchises was not as much fun as writing for young women trying to figure out their careers and potential boyfriends. So Aven got herself a job in television that allowed her to write at night. Connectivity is Aven’s debut novel; Waiting For Prince Harry and Chronicles of a Lincoln Park Fashionista (New Adult romantic comedy) and Surviving the Rachel were published last year. Her next book is published in May.

Aven lives in Dallas with her family. When she is not writing, Aven enjoys shopping, cooking, connecting with friends on social media, and watching any show that features Gordon Ramsay.
