Willa is nearly blind, but she knows trouble when she trips over it. Willa, the vicar's little sister knows full well that her prospects are bleak. When she accidentally kisses Alexander Braeburn, her dull predictable world turns upside down. Logic dictates that she should stay away from the handsome Corinthian. He's the black sheep of their village. But how can she resist? She yearns for one more taste of the most tantalizing excitement she has ever experienced. Just one more, before Willa settles back into her dreary life forever. Alex is intrigued by the refreshingly forthright Willa. Her genuine character warms his jaded heart and makes him smile. When she naively marches into trouble, Alex feels duty bound to rescue her. Is it duty? Or something else that compels him to watch over the vicar's little sister?Mistaken Kiss is a Sweet Traditional Regency RomanceAUTHOR'S NOTE: MISTAKEN KISS was written as a tribute to two of my favorite authors: the brilliant Oscar Wilde and the incomparable Georgette Heyer. I hope you will enjoy this light-hearted Regency romp as much as I enjoyed writing it. Devious Aunt Honore is back, and she's up to her pin curls in mischief. Rather a crafty slyboots in this Regency romantic romp, and I must confess I miss writing about her. Luckily, the old gal will be back in book three, CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTH, another Regency Romantic Comedy. Book Club Discussion GuideAvailable on Author Kathleen Baldwin's website.

BRAVA!" - HUNTRESS REVIEWS"Baldwin's second book and it is a delight... There are farcical elements to the story, but it is never over the top. There is laughter aplenty here, attractive, winning leads and sparkling dialog that left me with a smile on my face. I highly recommend this engaging Traditional Regency." -Cheryl Sneed, Rakehell Reviews"I love these "Aunt Honore" books and this one does not fail. Willa and Alex are delightful characters with great chemistry. I love how they seem to not realize as they fall deeper and deeper in love. ... Lady Alameda (or Aunt Honore) is a great character with her schemes and matchmaking. She is a great character through all three books and makes life so much more fun for the other characters. I really enjoyed this sweet story and the wonderful characters." - CleanRomanceReviews.com Review Citations: Ingram Paperback Advance 01/01/2005 pg. 43 (EAN 9780821777466, Mass Market Paperbound) Romantic Times 01/01/2005 pg. 106 (EAN 9780821777466, Mass Market Paperbound) Contributor Bio:  Baldwin, Kathleen KATHLEEN BALDWIN has written three award-winning traditional Regency romances for adults, including "Lady Fiasco", winner of Cataromance's Best Traditional Regency, and "Mistaken Kiss", a Holt Medallion Finalist.
