Riggins Brothers #3
Kiss by Kiss
Aurora
One look at Grant Riggins standing in my bakery looking at me like I’m his last meal is enough to know I’m in way over my head.
He’s relentless in his pursuit. The kind of man I could get lost in. But Grant makes me wish for things I can’t have.
I’ve finally got my life back. The last thing I need is to fall for the first man to give me a second glance, even if he does seem sincere in his efforts to win me over.
Grant
Aurora Steele smiles shyly across the counter, captivating me with her warm hazel eyes and effortless beauty.
Her bakery is filled with mouthwatering treats, but the thing I crave the most is not on the menu. I know one taste of Aurora will never be enough.
She’s different than other women, and she’s definitely immune to the Riggins charm. But I’ll prove to her I’m different too, and kiss by kiss, I’ll make her mine.

have you ever read a book that NOTHING happens? well, this book is like that.
she owns a bakery, one day he goes there and the moment he sees her he knows she's the one.
they go on dates, they like each other no drama no banter no slow burn, no fun!
you could say that the fact that her ex was verbally abusive is drama, but they get together early in the book, and by 50% they are already saying 'i love you'!

This series has been such a feel-good series to just get lost in for a few hours. And each book has been so sweet and easy to read. They have been the perfect angst free read that I've needed.
Straight after I put down piece by piece I couldn't wait to get started on kiss by kiss. And with the Riggins brothers all being as equally amazing I really didn't care who's book we were getting.
But I loved Grant and Aurora together. She had her insecurities but there was no way Grant was going to let her live with those. He was so sweet and supportive in everything and I loved watching Aurora's self-confidence bloom.
It was great to catch up with the newest additions to the Riggins family. Plus meet the first baby Riggins. I have no doubt we will be meeting a few more before the series is finished. I'm really looking forward to watching Conrad and Marshall fall.

⭐️ 4 "Warm Delights" Stars ⭐️
Kiss By Kiss is another dreamy romance from Kaylee Ryan. She knows exactly how to shape those sweet stories that make your heart melt. The Riggins brothers are something special and this time around, Grant had me completely conquered.
From all the brothers so far, I think Grant is the sweetest. It doesn’t mean he isn’t pushy when he wants something or someone, and that someone is Aurora, the owner of the new bakery in town. Seriously, his relationship with her was quite lovely! I must confess it was a little too insta-love to my taste, but I still enjoyed the evolution of their romance. Grant’s courtship of the young woman was truly gorgeous.
Aurora is self-conscious and has some issues with how she sees herself. After years in a verbally abusive relationship, she still has difficulty trusting people and believing in herself. Grant gently expresses to her that she’s important and has choices and dreams to live for. She truly thrives under his care and devotion.
This romance was an adorable slow burn, yet really sexy at times. It left me delighted. The Riggins family is such an amazing bunch with a great bond. The teasing between the brothers and supportive parents is only a few of the reasons I love this series this much. Kiss By Kiss left me breathless! I can’t wait for the next Riggins brother to fall in love too! It will be fun to witness for sure!

My goodness- just when I didn’t think the Riggins men could get any dreamier, Grant comes along and sweeps me off my feet. I simply can not get enough of this series- and Kaylee Ryan’s unique brand of feel good, sweet and tender romance. She’s an author that constantly reminds me how open and charming falling in love can be- and she’s my go to when I want to remember how falling in love can be effortless and sweet. Kaylee shows us how love can be magic.
We’re finally getting to dig deep with the middle child- Grant Riggins. And HE IS SO SWOONY. His sweet tooth leads him to a new local bakery where he meets the sweet and sassy Aurora- the bakery’s new owner who is a bit dating-averse. But Grant is charmed by more than just her delicious magic bars- he wants Aurora, and he’s not shy about pursuing her. He’s watched his two older brothers fall hard- and has learned in particular from Royce’s mistakes. When he finds love, he doesn’t resist it- no, this man double down. And this is what I love MOST about Grant (and what I was so surprised by)- he’s so transparent and genuine. He repeatedly exposes his heart, he’s so vulnerable and courageous in his pursuit of Aurora. And my goodness is he patient and giving….and SO charming. He had me sighing with affection all over the place- his open, bleeding heart and gentleness is one of the sexiest things I’ve ever read.
And my heart BLEEDS for Aurora. She’s my favorite heroine in this series yet- mostly because I related to her so fiercely. She’s been hurt, emotionally abused, and is bubbling with insecurities and baggage. Her feelings about her worthiness, fears to love her body and express her true feelings, speak to the insecurities and fears we as women all face in some way or another. Aurora is scared to trust- not just in love, not just in Grant, but in her own worthiness, to trust that she is special, that she deserves the love of man like Grant. And she is more than worthy- she’s smart, kind, and full of so much love. But most important, she’s brave. She has more to risk emotionally than Grant- but she still opens her heart.
Kaylee Ryan’s character chemistry is the epitome of swoony romance. These two are sweet, adorable, tender, and SEXY together. But what I loved most about this story is that it is a story about healing- about Aurora finding a relationship that is emotionally and psychologically safe enough for her to face some of her scars, and this is about Grant stepping up to be the man he’s always wanted to be- a man who embraces the “magic” who nurtures and cares for it. Aurora learns she’s good enough, while Grant lifts her up so she can shine. SWOOOOOON.
And, I especially loved all of the awesome we got from other characters in the book. We got to spend plenty of time seeing our prior brothers still being all possessive and smitten, we get to know our younger siblings a bit more for their stories, AND I loved the addition of Aurora’s feisty sister (fingers crossed she gets to be a heroine!) This family is just so amazing- and I love how Kaylee isn’t just telling a story about two people falling in love, she’s telling a story about these awesome heroine’s finding love and place amongst the whole Riggins crew.
I’m so glad we have a few more books, because I’m not sure how I’m going to leave the Riggins series behind- by far the best series Kaylee has ever written. Charming, sweet, and sincere- THIS is swoony magic. THIS is romance. MAGIC, pure magic.

OH MY GOODNESS!!! ! LOVE this series so much!!! Do you know how you think that there is no way a series could get better or that the next brother could be as amazing? I am here to tell you that it does get better and better!!! Grant is my favorite brother so far!! ALL OF YOUR KISSES FOREVER⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!
This is the third book in the series and is Grant and Aurora's story. Grant is your sweet, charming, caring, confident, loving and swoon worthy book boyfriend.
He is the middle brother who does not believe in "the magic" until he sets eyes on Aurora and feels an instant connection. Aurora is your sassy, sweet and broken woman that is full of insecurities. She recently moved to Nashville to start fresh and is now the owner of "Warm Delights". I loved Grant's patience with Aurora and how he helped her gain her self-esteem and self-confidence back. Their love story was so sweet and I am glad they got their HEA.
Do yourself a favor and go read this series!! Totally captivated from start to finish.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I have read this whole series so far and I keep saying it can’t get any better but Grant!!! Grant is the ultimate. I had an inkling he was gonna be super swoon worthy but man he took it over the top. I was so happy for Aurora to come into her own and really fight for herself. Perfect story, love this family!!! ~Jen
" I absolutely love Kaylee Ryan, and Grant Riggins might just be the sweetest main man yet. Her words flow so well and effortlessly, you actually feel like part of the family.
Grant and Aurora’s story was heartfelt, funny, steamy and fulfilling. Aurora has come to Nashville with her sister to start their bakery after her nightmare relationship. Beaten down with no self esteem, in comes sweet and lovable Grant, that knows right from the start Aurora is going to be a tough nut to crack.
The Riggins family bring her into their fold, with the magical way of making everyone feel welcome in the family. Bring on Conrad!!!!

This is another installment in the Riggins Brothers series. Grant is the middle brother and he doesn’t much believe in the “magic”, that is until he walks into Sweet Delights and sees the owner! Auroa is the owner of Sweet Delights and she is new to the area and trying to find a new start. She is thriving in her new business running her bakery and not looking for anything else. Grant has her questioning everything. I felt for Auroa and understood her lack of trust. Grant was so sweet and patient. The only thing I would have liked to seen more of was Auroa’s Ex who caused her all her pain. There was a small snipit of him and then he was gone. I expected a little more drama because we are talking the Riggins boys here. I do love this series and cannot wait to see what is coming for the youngest two brothers!! This was the perfect sweet story just in time for Valentines Day! ~Helen
This is another must read by Kaylee Ryan! I loved Kiss by Kiss. It flowed well, the depth of the story really got me in the feels and the characters get better and better. Grant and Aurora had amazing chemistry and they're a great couple. Grant is the perfect book boyfriend material! Aurora is strong and I loved her determination. This story was so good. I definitely recommend!! ~Andrea

I have to say that I ADORE everything Kaylee Ryan writes and this is no exception! I love the way her mind works, how her words flow effortlessly, how she makes me fall in love with every story she writes. Her stories are relatable, and her characters are beautiful. Kiss By Kiss is the epitome of swoony romance. And I'm not exaggerating here. This book had me going from happy sigh to happy sigh on every freaking page. I love the Riggins Brothers! They are such a wonderful family. Each of them are unique in their own way and I swear on everything holy, Kaylee Ryan gets more in depth the more she writes about these brothers.
Kiss By Kiss is such a fantastic story. It has it all. It's full of emotions. It's sweet, it's full of passion, and it's witty. Together, Grant and Aurora are perfect. I swooned hard and I loved these two together. The magic that Kaylee Ryan delivers with this book is perfect. I loved this story and cannot wait for the next book in the series. Kaylee Ryan has me hooked and needing more of the Riggins brothers. This is a 5 star, must read, sweet romance.

August 15, 2021
Lately I'm struggling to find a read I can invest in. Kaylee has done a really job here but I couldn't get into the characters. Maybe it's me and I'm being cynical but everyone is just too nice. I was waiting for something to happen, something that would drag me back into their lives. But nope. Nothing.
It was predictable, overly sweet and just too good to be true. I found it very easy to read but found my attention moving and I'd put down and come to it.
It's a maybe.

I needed a swoony hero with a protective side and I needed a read with strong family vibes. Kaylee Ryan delivered all those things in Kiss by Kiss! Grant Riggins is exactly what I needed today!
In My Own Words:
Kiss by Kiss is the third book in Kaylee Ryan's Riggins Brothers series. Although its a series, Aurora and Grant's story can be read as a standalone.
Aurora Steele is on a journey of self reflection. That journey has led her to doing something she's always wanted to do, and with a small amount of inheritance she received from her late grandmother, she has finally achieved one dream. She's finally opened up her bakery, and she's doing well for herself. She's on top of the world and nothing can stop her. Until Grant Riggins walks into her bakery looking to cure his sweet tooth.
It's love at first sight for Grant when he spots Aurora standing behind the display case at the new bakery in town. He'll do whatever it takes to bring back the spark that was smothered out by Aurora's ex-fiance. He'll do everything in his power to help her find the self esteem that was once stripped away from her. Aurora's his, and somewhere in his heart he knows she's the one he's always been searching for.
My Thoughts:
This is the first book I have picked up in the Riggins Brothers series and now I'm curious about the first two books in the series. I'm well on my way to marathoning another series. I need more Riggins Bros in my life. Kaylee Ryan brought the swoon and the heart with Grant and Aurora's story. I loved how understanding Grant was to Aurora's insecurities and to her needs. He's the final step she needed to rediscovering herself and gaining back her self esteem. This tatted man with the perfect body, saw Aurora for who she was and saw her curves as perfection.
One thing I've come to expect, and LOVE, from Kaylee Ryan's novels is her strong family vibes. I loved everything about this family. I loved all the brother's giving one another shit whenever they were in a room. I loved the laughter and the lightheartedness of it all. But let it be known, if someone messes with one of them, they've messed with all of them. My heart was gone the moment Grant brought Aurora and her sister Aspen into his circle. I LOVED IT!
My heart broke for all Aurora went through in the past. We've all had moments of insecurity, which is normal in any human life. When you give your heart to someone they are supposed to cherish it, But in the case of Aurora's past, she gave this abusive asshole the immense power of stripping away her self-esteem, self-confidence, and her future. Leaving in it's wake a shell of the person she used to be. Sometimes I feel mental and emotional abuse is harsher than physical abuse. You can't see the bruises inflicted on someone's soul.
Which leads to why I rated this book 4 star rating. I felt like the ending was drastically rushed. I wanted to see Grant lay ground to the Elijah threat. I needed more from this portion of Grant and Aurora's story. I fell unfulfilled where this matter is concerned. I needed that closure for Aurora.
In the end, I really loved this novel, these characters, and the romance between Grant and Aurora. Kaylee Ryan brought the swoon and the heart with this one. I'm actually really intrigued to see Aspen get her own story. I'm curious to see who she falls for!! This woman is hell on heals, there is no doubt about it.

5 He's Dangerous for Her Heart Stars!!!
Such a great book. I love their love story. How Grant knows Auoroa is it for him and just like his brothers doesn’t take no for an answer and pursues her until she gives in. And it's so swoony with the way he "makes his case." These Riggins Brothers know how to romance a woman that's for sure!!
I loved seeing Aurora become the strong woman she is destined be after her previous relationship. Having Grant’s love truly allows her to see what real love is about and her transition is like a caterpillar to a butterfly!

This book is the third in the Riggins Brothers Series and is a great addition to the series. This is Aurora and Grant's story and is a very beautiful and tender read. The brothers each have a great personality and I recommend starting with book #1 so you can read about the awesome sexy guys and the lives of the Riggins brothers.
Grant is a very sexy, independent loyal and an all round amazing man that will do anything for the people in his life that he loves and when he wants something that man knows how to get it. He owns the company with his brothers who are also amazing guys and when you read about them you will want to be part of there family. Lol!
Aurora is a beautiful woman that has had things tough at times and is very close to her sister and is not very self confident in herself. When Grant comes into the bakery and he wants to take her out for coffee she actually thinks he is joking at first and doesn't think that she is good enough. Grant has to win her over and gain her trust to prove he is a good guy and the only way he can do this is with one kiss at a time.
The way that this author has written these characters really pulls the reader in and the brothers form this series are awesome to read about. My heart went out to Aurora at times as I really felt for her and what she went through but she is a strong woman and with Grant by her side she will gain the self esteem in herself.

These Riggens Brothers get hotter and hotter as we get to know them and watch them fall. Grant's world turned upside down when he set eyes on Aurora. He has a sweet tooth but that just hitched a notch up when he walks into the new bakery in town and his sights are on the sexy, curvy owner Aurora. Grant wasn't the type of guy that went for her and she fought him as he tried to show her she was worth loving. Together these two just fit and I love how each brother is finding ( The Magic ) as their dad calls it. Fabulous story.

I know at this point I sound repetitive because I say the same thing after each new release, but when I say each new book is better than the last, I mean that whole heartedly. That is not me saying past releases were not amazing because they ALL are and in their own way, but this author surprises me every single dang time with a whole new story that is not the same ole thing. So my point of this paragraph? Kiss By Kiss is that new release that is better than the last.
One of my absolute favorite things about this series is how family oriented it is. Ryan showcases a family that is full of love and happiness, that stems from the love of parents that not only show it, but produce it. This tight knit family leaves my heart always feeling full and light at the same time.
Kiss By Kiss features the middle brother (Grant). He is third in the line of his other siblings, and is different in his own way. His story surprised me, in the sense of not knowing what to expect. Kaylee Ryan did a fantastic job with building up such an inspiring story. Kiss Kiss flowed at the perfect pace, and that allowed the development to truly shine. I was a fan of how the overall plotline was crafted throughout the entirety of the story, and how the characters grew along with it. The depth was something that tugged on my heart strings, but it was also something so relatable to more people than I would like to imagine. The patience that Ryan showed, showed through her characters every action, and every word. The undeniable chemistry / romance aspect was done... WITH Steroids'. Holy bananas, that was anything but stale! The wittiness and banter helped craft this book into THE perfect book.
Grant is the sweet tooth Hero that has every positive quality known to man. Ryan showcased him in a different kind of spotlight that made him that much more special.
Aurora is no where near your " Normal " heroines. She is womanly in everyway that counts. This baker no only bakes sweets, she exudes sweet.
Two different people, from two different worlds. Can Grant prove to Aurora she is wrong in the only aspect that really counts?
** I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK

God, how I love the Riggins brothers!!! I was amazing to dive back into their world and their family. And officially, Grant has become my favorite brother, although I have a feeling Marshall will steal that spot when his book comes out.
After Owen's insta-love-ish book, Grant and Aurora's book was absolute perfection. With an amazing and real life pacing that let the characters evolve in a way that felt natural and their relationship progressed in a pace that meant the foundations were as solid as could be.
Aurora had fled a nightmarish relationship before landing in Nashville with her sister and opening up their very own bakery. She was so beaten down mentally that her self-esteem was non-existent, her trust in men, zero. Enter the amazing and swoon-worthy Grant Riggins. His determination and patience and love for Aurora was what fairy tales are made off and absolutely what Aurora needed to be herself and blossom into the amazing woman she was but never believed to be.
The banter was strong as ever between all characters, the connection between Aurora and Grant palpable and their chemistry sizzling. I love how the Riggins family welcomed Aurora and her sister with open arms and loved them and supported them and when the inevitable s*t hit the fan, the rallied behind them and it was truly beautiful to watch.
As Aspen, Aurora's sister, mentioned regularly in the book, Grant Riggins set the relationship standards so high, we'll all be lucky to find a man half as good as Grant. I loved the fact that Kaylee Ryan took the time to set up their relationship and it wasn't an insta-love thing happening. It simply gave more depth and reality to the story and I absolutely loved it!!!!
Bring on Conrad's magic because I'm going to enjoy watching him eat his words!!!!

Loving the Riggins brothers! Grant is the middle Riggins sibling and feels that he is truly in the middle between his older brothers and younger brothers in personality and life. When he walks into the new bakery in town and meets the owner, he starts to understand his older brothers more when he goes all alpha-male and goes after what he wants. Aurora has recently moved to town and took a risk by opening her own bakery, but it is her passion, and she loves it, although she struggles with her weight and self-confidence. When she meets Grant, she isn’t convinced that he is into her, especially with the experience of her last relationship, and she is constantly second guessing him and his intentions. Grant doesn’t take no for an answer from Aurora, and with the help of her sister, she finds herself spending more and more time with Grant and falling for him just as fast. I loved that Grant really worked to make Aurora realize his feelings and intentions with her were pure, and that when her past came back to haunt her, he took control and showed her exactly how he felt about her. While this book was a little tamer in the drama/suspense aspect than the others in this series, I loved getting to know this couple and see them get the HEA they both deserve, and I cannot wait for the younger Riggins brothers to fall next! I continue to love Kaylee’s style of writing and storylines and can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

The more and more this series continues to more and more I fall in love with the entire Riggins family! Seriously wishing I can at least be adopted by this family! They are caring, loving, sweet, supportive and just everything you could want.
Grant Riggins is the middle brother and the moment he feels the magic he is hooked and he goes full force. I loved that while he was persistent when it came to Aurora, he wasn’t overly pushy in a way that is a turn off. He was caring and understanding and willing to listen to her and follow her lead. I was swooning hardcore for the man. I absolutely loved Aurora! She is a fighter and though she may have been broken down in the past she had all the right people in her corner to love her and support her and help her along the way.
The chemistry between Grant and Aurora is absolutely amazing. They had an instant connection and that connection just grew stronger and deeper as their story continued. I loved everything about their relationship. I also loved how Grant included Aurora’s sister, Aspen, into the Riggins family.
If you’re looking for a sweet romance that is a little bit of slow burn, full of amazing chemistry and one of my family book families this is a must read!

5 Stars!
Oh my goodness, what a BEAUTIFUL romance and my heart? Completely stolen since the start of this addicting series and I never, ever want it back.
Kaylee Ryan is back with next standalone in the sexy, sweet, and swoony Riggins Brothers series and holy wow y'all, I want to start that all over again! My heart and my emotions were not ready for Grant and Aurora's story but gahhhhh I freaking loved every single word.
Kiss by Kiss takes us on an unforgettable, undeniable and unputdownable journey that will give you all of the feels and have you swooning, literally on every single page. Watching our sweet Grant fall? EPIC. Aurora and Grant were everything in the very best ways and those moments that they shined so hard? Yeah, I devoured them and this beauty.
I'm on pins and needles for the next brother. Top author. Top series. This is an absolute must read.
I highly recommend this book.

Kiss By Kiss is book 3 in the Riggins Brothers series by Kaylee Ryan. This is Aurora and Grant's story. They met at her bakery "Warm Delights". They have instant chemistry but Aurora is hesitant to pursue anything because of her past dating experiences. She had bad experiences which left her with bad self esteem and worth. Grant can't help but be overwhelmed by Aurora's beauty and kindness. He wants to see her but she's leery about his motives. Grant can't believe that he's got to convince a woman to go out with him but soon he realizes that she's worth it. Can Grant and Aurora make their relationship span forever or will her past come back to cause her more pain and derail her new, bright future. This story has everything from heat, feels, secrets, twists, chemistry, humor, romance, love and HEA .
My Rating: 4.5 stars *********

When Grant went into the bakery looking for a treat he didn’t think it would be the woman behind the counter. He is enchanted by her from their first meeting and she inspires feelings in him that he has never felt before but convincing her to trust him with her heart may be the biggest challenge of all.
Aurora has come to town for a new beginning, but she still bears the emotional turmoil of her past. She is attracted to Grant but her judgment when it comes to men shouldn’t be trusted and anyone that appears to be too good to be true usually is.
Grant is the perfect mix of sweet and swoony as he shows Aurora by word and deed how special she is until she believes it as well. She not only becomes the woman she was meant to be but the happy life she deserves as well.

I was given an advance readers copy of this book and have decided to write a voluntary honest review. I am rating this book 4.5 stars. I've said this before but I will say it again these Riggins brothers are so hot!! I'm usually not into a insta love, but this book wasn't that, it was a instant attraction that Grant didn't give up on. Grant is more like Owen i that sense. I see conrad being more like Royce. And marsh I'm undecided. Aurora has a lot to over come, but i believe she can get there. Now as for Aspen what is her story? I can definitely see her with Conrad or maybe Marsh?? I am so excited for Con next!

Grant Riggins is a man who knows what he wants and will be a powerhouse until he gets to his goal. But when it comes to the admiration of the lovely bakery owner, Aurora, Grant is left needing to earn her trust and devotion one kiss at a time. But when her past comes back to haunt her will Grant believe in her true affection or will he think she is just out for his wallet? I absolutely love this series! Each brother has their own quirks and it is watching the mighty fall into love that is so enjoyable and entertaining to read.

OMG the sweetness that was this book. Seriously I knew since book one that Grant was special and boy did he prove that in this book. From the moment he saw Aurora he knew he found his woman. She had serious and deep scars from her past relationship and was not so easy to open up to him. But his persistence proved that he was a good guy through and through and that he loved her.
Together they make a great team and hope that Aspen (Aurora's sister) will also get her HEA somewhen in this series.

Kiss by Kiss by Kaylee Ryan is Grant Riggins story and I was so excited to dive in. It was such a sweet and charming story and I just devoured it. I loved Grant. He is caring and sweet and so freaking likable. He saw Aurora and she called to him. Something about her pulls at him. Aurora has not had luck with men and carries some deep scars. But Grant always puts her first and cares about her right from the start. Their journey was delightful and a bit emotional and I loved it!

I’m really loving this series. While the series has a cohesive vibe, each book is different from one another in a way that keeps me excited for each new couple.
Grant and Aurora were so sweet. I absolutely loved the build of their relationship and their chemistry. There were some laugh out loud moments and some seriously swoon worthy scenes. I couldn’t get enough. Their story had me tearing through the pages, eager to see how it would all play out. I also love the way that Ryan pulls in the other couples and characters. I’m so excited to see what’s to come for the remaining brothers!

Kiss By Kiss is book three in the Riggins Brothers series. I loved it. Grant was so so swoony and sexy. I could not get enough of that man. Aurora was sweet. Grant and Aurora were so perfect and scorching together. Loved them! The Riggins are such a great family. I loved the way they treated Aurora and her sister Aspen! Looking forward to reading Conrad and Marshall's books!

It's Grant Riggins' turn to get knocked off his feet by the love of his life. Grant, a lover of sweets who goes to the new bakery referred by his new sis in law, is hooked on the desserts and the moment he sees Aurora. Aurora, excellent baker/bakery owner has worked hard to get where she is and finally has everything on track, but a customer stops her in her tracks. Aurora has been through alot with her ex and it has carried over into the present. She wants to focus on herself but didn't expect this guy to sweep her off her feet like Grant Riggins has. Grant has alot of work to get Aurora to trust in him and them.
I really like the Riggins' brothers. They are so welcoming and love hard. They have an amazing family and I am ready to read the rest of the bros stories.
