"THE STUFF ROMANCE DREAMS ARE MADE OF." - Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author
Sparks fly in this second chance m/m rom com when an unlucky-in-love event planner realizes the man-of-honor at the high profile wedding he's planning is the same man who broke his heart.
They say you never forget your first kiss. But Jordan Carter wishes he could forget the one he shared with Jamie Peters as teens. And the one they almost shared again last year before Jamie made it clear he wasn’t the “right” man for Jordan to be with while he’s figuring himself out.
Now, Jordan’s fully focused on his career at 24 Carter Gold, his family’s event planning company, and ready to move on - until his boss assigns him to plan a new client’s high-profile wedding. The bride’s man-of-honor? None other than Jamie.
As things ramp up the closer they get to the wedding, so does Jordan’s relationship with Jamie, with sarcastic asides turning into steamy hook-ups. But can Jordan afford to pursue Jamie if he’s still unsure of who he is? Or is knowing who he loves enough? Venue shopping, cake-tastings, and dress fittings with the man he can’t forget just might change the man Jordan Carter is meant to become.
Last First Kiss by Julian Winters is a second chance romance about finding yourself–and the love of your life.
“A tender, slow burn romance about falling for your first crush, questioning your identity on your own terms, and finding your place in the world. Julian Winters delivers a sweet, funny, steamy, and uplifting love story that is sure to make readers swoon.” - Alexis Daria, USA Today bestselling author of You Had Me at Hola
"No one writes as vividly and as tenderly as Julian Winters, and Last First Kiss is his best yet. It's as sweet as an unexpected slow dance in a conservatory and as playful as a cake tasting turned flirty, and while Jordan and Jamie may have had their last first kiss, you'll be sighing happily over their firsts and lasts long after you close the book." - Julie Murphy and Sierra Simone, authors of A Jingle Bell Mingle
“Pure and utter fun, with a sparkling cast of characters and an effortlessly witty voice. Last First Kiss is a love letter to late bloomers, found family, and anyone who's still trying to figure themselves out — and a reminder that it can be an ongoing process.” - Rachel Lynn Solomon, New York Times bestselling author of What Happens in Amsterdam
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Winters's fabulous follow-up to I Think They Love You revisits the employees of the 24 Carter Gold agency, this time giving closeted 25-year-old Jordan Carter, an event coordinator, a second chance romance with Jamie Peters. Jamie was Jordan's first kiss years ago and Jordan has been confused about his feelings, and his sexuality, ever since. The men unexpectedly reconnect when Jamie turns up as the best man in a wedding Jordan is coordinating. Though Jordan tries to resist the endearing and energetic Jamie, whom he thinks of as the "human equivalent of a border collie," his attraction only grows, especially when the pair end up slow dancing together in a potential wedding venue and feeding each other cake at a tasting. It becomes undeniable that Jamie "makes Jordan's heart speed up like he's just mainlined a case of Red Bull," and the guys get physical—but still pretend in public like their moments of intimacy never happened, leading to mixed signals and conflicting emotions. Meanwhile, Jordan contends with a new work rival, Javi, whose interest in him is more than just professional. Winters makes Jordan's coming-out story feel authentic and emotional, surrounding him with supportive family members who help convey the bighearted message that "no one gets to decide what love story looks like." This smart, sexy romance will have readers swooning.
