BOOK REVIEW: THE KISS QUOTIENT BY HELEN HOANG



Stella Lane thinks math is the only thing that unites the universe. She comes up with algorithms to predict customer purchases—a job that has given her more money than she knows what to do with, and way less experience in the dating department than the average thirty-year-old.


It doesn't help that Stella has Asperger's and French kissing reminds her of a shark getting its teeth cleaned by pilot fish. Her conclusion: she needs lots of practice—with a professional. Which is why she hires escort Michael Phan. The Vietnamese and Swedish stunner can't afford to turn down Stella's offer, and agrees to help her check off all the boxes on her lesson plan—from foreplay to more-than-missionary position...

Before long, Stella not only learns to appreciate his kisses, but to crave all the other things he's making her feel. Soon, their no-nonsense partnership starts making a strange kind of sense. And the pattern that emerges will convince Stella that love is the best kind of logic..


MY THOUGHTS

This book has been on my TBR for a while so I am glad that I was finally able to complete it. I liked the story line of the book. It was great seeing the world through Stella's eyes and learning about the struggles that young women with autism face with respect to love and just life in general. Michael's character was quite interesting, I think it took me towards the end to really understand the things he was facing dealing with his family and the huge responsibility of his family on his shoulders.

The sexual passion in this book was something else let's just say the scenes had my attention. I also liked that there was an element of humour in some parts of the story making it a lighter read. If I were to criticize one thing it would be in the middle of the story there was a point where I felt that it was taking long to get to the point a bit. Overall though this was a nice romantic story and I look forward to the other books.
