Shelly’s Review:
Outlaw’s Kiss is a sweet, heartfelt, western romance. 
Callie opens the door to an outlaw who’s been shot in the shoulder, requesting her help. Callie welcomes Breed into her home and helps him to heal. Her neighbor is trying to steal her property by foul means and Breed helps her in return. Callie thought she was going to have to sell out now that her father passed on, but Breed helps her to keep her home and decides to stay on to be with her.
This is a sweet, wholesome story where Cia Leah creates a loving, caring atmosphere and not a sexual one. There are a few light kisses, but no overt sexual situations. It’s been a very long time since I’ve read such a chaste story and it was a welcome change. Outlaw’s Kiss is a great story for all age groups and I’ll even recommend this one to my teenage niece. I’m sure she’ll enjoy it like I did.
Rated 5 Delightful Divas by Shelly!
