Trying Not to Kiss You (Moran Sisters #3)

NYT and USA Today bestselling author Kaylee Ryan brings you a new standalone series set in a small town, surrounding four sisters. Trying Not to Kiss You is a small-town, friends-to-lovers, secret-relationship romance.

Leighton

Dixon Turner has always been a part of my life. I never thought twice about him… until now.

Volunteering to help him launch his new agricultural mechanic shop seemed harmless enough.

But I wasn’t prepared to spend every day with the guy I’ve known most of my life… and start seeing him in a way I never have before.

The quiet steadiness of him. The way he listens like he actually hears me.

Something has definitely shifted. And when the tension finally snaps, I make him an offer I really hope he doesn’t refuse.

Friends… with benefits.

I know a guy like Dixon doesn't do forever.

But I’ll take whatever he’s willing to give.

Because it’s a whole lot better than pretending there’s nothing between us… and trying not to kiss him every time he gets too close.

Dixon

Leighton was always there… the little sister who tagged along.

Looking back, I can’t remember a time she wasn’t.

But somewhere between rebuilding engines and building my business, I realize she’s all grown up.

Wanting Leighton and letting myself have her are two different things.

I’ve seen firsthand what happens when you build your world around someone and lose them.

My father never recovered, and I’ve spent years making sure that never happens to me.

Then Leighton happens.

And if I can’t bring myself to love her the way she deserves, I’ll lose her anyway.
