Kiss Me Books in Order

The Kiss Me series sits on the lighter, quicker end of Emma Hart's romance catalog. These books are contemporary romances designed to move fast, leaning on sharp attraction, playful resistance, and the kind of emotional confusion that starts with one bad idea and somehow becomes three. The titles, Kiss Me Not, Kiss Me Tonight, and Kiss Me Again, tell you a lot about the mood before you even open the first page.

These are stories about the trouble that starts with chemistry.

As a series, Kiss Me is less about an elaborate external plot and more about the push-pull between two people who are trying not to give in, not to complicate things, or not to repeat a mistake, and doing a very poor job of any of it. Hart tends to write this kind of setup well because she enjoys characters who are verbally quick but emotionally slow. They can argue, flirt, dodge, and rationalize for quite a while before finally admitting what is obvious to everyone else.

That makes the series a good fit for readers who like a breezier pace. The books are connected by tone and style more than by one sweeping ongoing storyline. You can expect close contact, mixed signals, stubbornness, and a strong romantic-comedy current under the steamier moments. Hart does not waste much time here. She gets the leads into trouble early and lets their personalities do the rest.

Even without a sprawling series mythology, there is still a recognizable Emma Hart feel to these books. The dialogue has bite. The heroines tend to know their own minds until the heart gets involved. The heroes often look self-assured until they discover that wanting someone for real is a lot harder to manage than wanting a kiss. That gap between confidence and actual emotional skill is where a lot of the comedy lives.

If you are looking for sprawling family sagas or mystery subplots, this is probably not the series to start with. But if what you want is something short, flirty, and built around romantic tension that refuses to stay simple, Kiss Me works nicely. These books are about giving in, pulling back, and learning that a kiss is rarely just a kiss when the right person is involved.

In other words, they are quick reads with a clear promise. Attraction shows up first. Complications arrive immediately after. Feelings try to pretend they are not there. Nobody really believes that for long.
