This book is everything that I need in any good book. It's full of humor, touching Romantic moments, Amy Andrews delivers one of her best works.

I Really loved this story line and the characters. I Definitely Recommend all Readers to read this book. You will not be disappointed.

Another really funny RomCom from Amy Andrews. Definitely an original. Handsome, blue collar contractor, Marshall Dyson, and his lawyer younger brother Jeremy have plans for the island that Jeremy inherited from their grandfather- wipe out any memory of their despicable grandfather, destroying everything he held dear and creating a haven for families. But someone released 3 mini lop rabbits on the island and these rabbits have been doing what rabbits do. But The American Bunny League has taken them to court to be allowed to rescue the rabbits. The judge finds it all very funny and Marshall is ordered to assist veterinarian Gus (Dr. Augusta North) in collecting them for rescue and adoption. Was the judge playing cupid? Lots of funny banter and endearing characters.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Marshall Dyson wants to raze his grandfather’s island to the ground but Augusta “Gus” North and her American Bunny League are dertermined to stop him...at least until all the bunnies have been collected an rehomed.

This story starts in a court room and makes both characters quite unlikable, but once they're on the island it's like a switch flips and they turn into a couple with a surprising amount of chemistry and empathy.

If you're looking for a light read and like fluffy bunnies, this coud be the book for you.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. This is a a sweet and guan romance to read, I couldn’t put it down. I loved the bunny facts, I just wish they were all 100 percent correct. I am a bunny owner so this was a extra special book to me.

I love Amy Andrews - and this book was definitely bunnylicious. I'd give it a very solid 3.5 stars.

Marshall has a construction project being put on hold because of a bunny problem. The island he's working on has a small colony of domestic rabbits that started after someone abandoned an unfixed pair on the island. Gus and the American Bunny league filed an injunction to stop the construction to allow them to humanely rescue the bunnies and find them new homes. The judge agrees and asks Marshall to help with the process. This starts a month of close proximity between them - and a whole lot of sexual tension.

Marshall is a serial monogamist - but hasn't fully committed to anything. Gus is gun shy after her ex cheated on her. Marshall isn't afraid of relationships - but he is definitely afraid to commit after a lifetime of being let down by those he loves. The attraction between the two of them is intense.

I liked Gus and her overall level of competency and love of animals. Marshall is definitely a sweetheart - and I loved how much he cared about Gus as a whole person - not just a bombshell of a woman. But tere's the one big thing that bothered me...and I the more I think about it the bigger it gets in my mind. I know that Gus wanted to sign the contract as much for herself as for Marshall BUT I was put off by the idea that it was necessary to keep Marshall from approaching her. It felt - off for me - especially from Amy Andrews. I think, truthfully, that Marshall is the type of guy who understands that no means no. And as attracted as they were to each other - I don't think a contract was needed to stop that from happening. It bothers me to think that from Gus's perspective - she felt her words alone weren't enough.

Overall - it is a sweet and sexy book. Its a fun read especially for bunny lovers!

I received this as an ARC from NetGalley, but these opinions are all my own.

The playboy and the bunny wrangler!

This romance was a lot of fun to read. Marshall only wants to erase his horrible grandfather's memory by building on the island he inherited. Gus only wants to rescue and rehome the colony of once-domestic rabbits that have made the island their home. A judge forces them to work together for a month, but their instant attraction to each other leads them to draw up a "contract" of their own that keeps them from acting on their insatiable chemistry.

There's plenty of humor all around, and the restraint shown by these two barely disguises the fireworks brewing every time they're together. This author has a real knack for writing humorous yet steamy romances, and this one is no exception. The HEA was terrific, and all the bunnies get their own HEA as well. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

It's a sweet and fun read. I absolutely adored the characters and loved the story. It's beautifully written with many moments that will melt your heart. I think it's a must-read for all romance lovers.

Amy Andrews is one of my favorite authors so I was eager to read this ARC. While it was a fun, flirtatious read, I did find it heavy with the bunny rescue facts. Which was ironic since the author confesses in her afternotes, that many of her “bunny rescue notes” are fiction. I enjoyed both MCs; Gus with her knowledgeable but sarcastic brain and Marshall with his angsty history and alpha but humble self. Their interactions together are both funny and steamy! A fun read.

I enjoyed Marshall and Gus' story so much. It was so much fun to read, I was not expecting that. Their story definitely took me by a surprise. The chemistry between them is undeniable but this is an enemies-to-lovers, so obviously the tension is through the roofs! And it was dang satisfying when they got together because the build-up between them was properly developed.

I have loved every other book I have read by this author and looked forward to reading this one and was thrilled to receive it BUT after starting to read this book...was not up to continuing the lighthearted read I believe this would be SO am passing and not finishing after reading a few chapters, a bit in the middle and seeing what happened at the end. Thank you for the opportunity and do look forward to reading more by this author in the future - she writes great characters in wonderful stories...bunnies? Ah well...

The Kissing Contract by Amy Andrews is a loads of fun, laugh outloud romance. Who knew I'd love a bunny themed romance? If you are a fan of grumpy-sunshine romances, this is a must read!

In my quest to read as many ARCs as possible during this year's edition of ARC August I decided to check and see if I could find any of them as audiobooks, because why not multitask while working? Thankfully one such book was The Kissing Contract. I knew I was going to enjoy it, because it's an Amy Andrews book, but I didn't quite expect the story to be this cute. I remember when I saw it on NetGalley and I knew I wanted to read it, because it was Amy Andrews, and even then I did not look at the blurb. Unfortunately, I'm a mood reader, so sometimes that means I don't read certain stories right away. Thankfully I was in the mood to read it now, and guys, I am very happy I did. Let me tell you all about it!

This story, guys. It has it all. It has a very interesting meet cute, a contract between two lovable dorks that I just wanted to shove into a room, and lock them inside until they got over their differences and stubbornness, and bunnies. What could be cuter than bunnies?

Gus is the most adorable heroine I've read in a while. She's a vet, she has a passion for bunnies, and she's sarcastic as hell. I loved her from the first moment we met her, when she basically called Marshall, the hero, a moron, in court. She did that, and I just fell in love with her. She's afraid of being hurt again, so she's trying really hard to resist the attraction she feels towards Marshall. And while she does admit it to herself that she loves him, she realizes that Marshall needs something more than he needs love. He needs to overcome some issues before he can fully commit to a relationship, so she isn't afraid of telling him that. she isn't afraid of telling him stuff he doesn't want to hear, even if it means breaking her own heart, and I respected her for it.

Marshall's story was heartbreaking. His childhood hasn't been an easy one, and he doesn't know how to deal with what happened to him, his brother, and his parents. Having lost both parents pretty young, Marshall was forced to grow up way faster than he should have. He was a good older brother, but unfortunately that meant he has a lot of stuff he isn't willing to deal with. Like his hatred for his late grandfather. The story there is heartbreaking to say the least, and like Gus, my heart broke for those two little boys who just needed someone to love them. Prepare for heartbreak once you read this book.

There was a lot of chemistry between Gus and Marshall, and I adored their banter. Even if they started their relationship on the wrong foot, I loved how they ended up working as a team to retrieve the bunnies, to take care of them, and even to put them up for adoption. Marshall went from seeing the bunnies as pests to being fiercely protective of the bunnies who received mean comments because they weren't as cute as people think bunnies should look like. He even ended up adopting one of the bunnies that no one wanted, and that made me swoon so much. Because a man who loves animals will always get to my heart.

The plot moved quite quickly, and it wasn't long before I found myself at the end. The epilogue was fantastic and it made me smile. I loved everything about it. I wouldn't be me though if I wouldn't wish for Jeremy, Marshall's brother, to get his own book, because I feel like he needs his own happy ending too.

The narrator, Shirl Rae, does a fantastic job at bringing this story to life. I loved her narrating style, and I will make sure to check out some of her other audiobooks. She even managed to make Gus's sarcastic comments sound sarcastic, which I find not everyone manages to do that well. I'll definitely check out more of her audio work.

All in all, a really cute story that I thoroughly enjoyed reading.

This was such a cute read and would make an excellent beach read. Marshall wants nothing more than to demolish his uncle's cabin and build on the island but instead is being dragged into court and being told there are bunnies that need to be trapped first and he and the doctor on the other side nearly set the court on fire with the chemistry between them. When they both show up on the island together they work as a team along with the bunny guard to trap the bunnies. So much banter and sass and bunny one liners along with lots of island activities with the guard. So good!

**Received this ARC for review from the publisher via NetGalley**

From start to finish there isn’t one moment that I wasn’t completely emotionally engaged in Marshall and Gus’ story. The Kissing Contract by Amy Andrews is a nonstop roller coaster read of laugh out loud humor (one of the things I enjoy most about Ms Andrews’ writing is that her sense of humor shines through in her writings), witty banter, whip smart repartee, smoothly flowing dialogue, and interesting, multidimensional characters. The locale is mind candy, and as written by the author, easy to place myself right in the midst of all the bunny happenings...and best of all...BUNNIES!

This ARC book was complimentary, provided by the Publisher and NetGalley. I am voluntarily providing my honest review.

I was a bit trepidatious about this book after reading the synopsis - um, bunnies? But, what a sweet surprise this book was for me. Even with the bunnies. Even with the outlandish setup. It still worked for me. This is a fun, flirty read that has a very original premise. The characters are great and the story is sweet.

Who knew that bunny collection could be so hot? Amy Andrews makes it work! However, this novel is so much more than steamy and sexy. Marshall and Augusta are heartwarming and vulnerable characters that the reader will fall in love with throughout the novel. The emotional connection that builds between the two main characters keeps the reader invested and turning the pages to get to their HEA. Amy Andrews gives readers another wonderfully satisfying romance.

I received a copy of THE KISSING CONTRACT from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. Thank you to the author and publisher.

FIVE STARS and here’s why:

This book really made me LOL! It’s my first Amy Andrews story and I enjoyed her writing immensely. The book is sweeter in the romance department than I’m used to, but the bunny story cracked me up continuously. I read the book in one night – it was that good. Highly recommend!

This book was laugh-out-loud funny. And despite an over-abundance of ridiculousness (the ABL - American Bunny League and the Bunnyguard, anyone?), this book was delightful.

Marshall Dyson inherited an island in a lake in Colorado, which he plans to turn into a camp for families. But the ABL has taken him to court to stop construction on account of all the bunnies that have taken up residence. So now, under judges orders, Marshall must spend one month helping veterinarian Augusta North capture and rehome all the bunnies.

Gus is excited about this project. What she’s not so excited about is spending time with the cranky contractor who just wants to get the bunnies off his island as quickly and easily as possible. Of course, the more time she spends with Marshall she realizes he’s not as cranky as he seemed in court. In fact, he’s actually a really nice guy. And all that time spent together makes it really hard not to give into their building attraction.

But Marshall has a bad history with relationships, and Gus is still feeling the sting of her past relationship that went bad. A month was all it took to fall in love, but building something that will last and stand the test of time takes a little longer.

It’s been a while since I’ve read a book that was so effortlessly funny. Not just funny, hilarious. Facebook posts that read like a dating site for the bunnies and witty banter between the hero and heroine kept this read light and fun. But struggles dealing with the past added just the right amount of angst to make the story heartfelt and compelling. The only thing I didn’t care for was the constant and ridiculous amount of internal monologue about how hawt the other person was. Less Pecs, More Plot is my motto! But since the rest of the writing was so good, I was easily able to overlook this (in my opinion) shortcoming.

Also, bonus points for the author’s notes at the end where she basically says “everything about the bunny rescue is fiction”, she made the whole thing up, “because fiction!” It was the most amusing author’s note I’ve ever read, and I just loved her honesty. I usually prefer a book to be as factual as possible, but I can totally respect an author who makes things up and owns it!

This was my first Amy Andrews story, and I’d definitely be interested in reading more from her. You can never read too many books that make you laugh out loud!

Wow this book was just so good and so easy to get lost in. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I just didn't want it to end. I just couldn't get enough of these wonderful characters and I just loved getting to see their journey. I will most definitely be reading more stories from this wonderful author.

For me the best slow-burn romance that I ever read. This is a good example that every page doesn't need to have most of the pages written about sex. Sweet, funny, furry love romance with a little bit of family drama and a lot of anticipation. Both Marshall and Gus are great characters easy to love. They make a beautiful couple and their chemistry is off the hook. I loved every written page and I enjoyed reading it.
Great story, recommended.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for NetGalley
