The First Kiss
by Mina Khan

The first kiss is a special moment…you stand at the brink of new possibilities, hoping for a magical connection.

I still remember my first kiss ever. I was 11 and he was 12, our families were friends. We’d spent two-weeks in the summer together and we were about to go our separate ways. The setting was perfect: sunset at the beach. We’d managed to lag behind everyone else…and then he stole a kiss. It was a quick peck, sweet and innocent…but still thrilling enough to send us hurtling across the boardwalk, hearts galloping almost out of us, grinning at each other.

The first kiss I shared with the man who became my DH…was different. What was supposed to be a goodnight kiss ended up being a major make-out session, lol. A man of few words, he delivers with actions. And yes, my heart raced like kid behind the wheels of a Corvette. Still does.

So, I try to make the first kiss in my stories special and full of magic. Here’s my hero, Rukh, just after sharing a kiss with the heroine, Sarah in THE DJINN’S DILEMMA:

The original plan had been to fade again. Unfortunately, he’d come up with the harebrained idea of introducing himself. Touch, he’d theorized, would strengthen his link to Sarah and enable him to peek into her mind.

The handshake hadn’t worked.

Instead, she’d kissed him.

And what a kiss. For a moment, all barriers between them had melted and her mind lay open like a book waiting to be read. One look at her raw desire for him and all his other thoughts had fled. She’d ceased to be Sarah and become Jasmine to him. He’d gawked, frozen like a virgin, and then almost lost himself in her. Damn, it had been too long, and it had felt good. Better than good.

He should never have let that kiss happen.

But Rukh had been hired to kill her—and the only way to save her is to find out who wants her dead before someone else finishes the job….

  1. I don't remember my first kiss, so it must not have been anything special. I do remember my first crush though. It was in Kindergarten & I fell in love with a boy who wore his hair just like my dad. Of course, he had no idea I was alive, so when he changed his hair in first grade & no longer reminded me of my dad, I lost interest in him.

  2. I agree first kisses are special. I was 16. I waited for what I thought was the right guy. We dated the whole summer and found him kissing another girl at the end of summer. He sucked and broke my heart. The next week it was mended and found another boy to kiss. This book looks great and would love to win and read it. Thanks for the chance to win.
