Liked the 1st book cross my heart enough to buy sealed with a kiss,hunter and molly were good side character's in the 1st book and i really wanted to know how he was going to end up in the second book sealed with a kiss. well worth reading but i would 100% read the 1st book before reading this as you will get a better understanding of hunter and molly and why they both are so careful with relationships, hunter is scared of being left again after spending his childhood in foster homes and molly just wants a family to love and stay, unlike her mother who goes from man to man, leaving her behind everytime, ty and lily are in this too and as with most carly philips books this is a great read not to heavy good dose of humour and romance and the warm feeling when it ends

Light On Content, Heavy On Saccharine.

Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Almost a year ago Molly left Hunter brokenhearted and a little bitter. They had had a long history of flirtation, mutual respect, attraction and chemistry. They were just beginning to have a real relationship when Molly experienced some personal setbacks and decided to step away. Hunter put his heart on the line and offered her everything but she chose to pack up in search of herself.
Molly and Hunter have not forgotten each other and now Molly comes back into his life because she needs his help. Molly's father is in need of the best criminal lawyer, and Hunter is that. Having no intention of getting his heart trampled on again, Hunter reluctantly agrees to take the case.
I have been a long time Carly Phillips fan and absolutely adored Cross My Heart (Harlequin Romance); the first book that introduces us to Molly and Hunter. Though Cross My Heart is Ty and Lacey's story, Molly and Hunter's characters really stood out; making me eager to read this second book.
The first third of this book started out great and I was really into it. Then somewhere along the way Ms. Phillips decided to kick up the schmaltz levels making this book a little too whiny and cheesy for my tastes. Hunter and Molly have all these childhood issues that are constant road blocks on the road to happily ever after. I just wanted to shake the both of them and yell "GET OVER IT ALREADY!"
Sealed with a Kiss is not quite the Carly book I have come to enjoy and it's definitely a disappointing follow up to Cross My Heart. Despite its flaws it was still an enjoyable read and I would have been sorry to have missed it. Perhaps I was expecting too much?

Just missing something... but loved the macaw
5 Oct 2007
Format:Mass Market Paperback
In need of a change of scenery after yet another set back courtesy of her selfish mother, Molly discovers that the absentee father who has ignored her all these years is not her biological father. With mom off to Europe to find a new groom and armed with the name of her real dad, she leaves her friends, job, and boyfriend Daniel Hunter behind in upstate New York, traveling to Connecticut to connect with the father she's never known. Hunter offered to drop everything and follow her, but is once again devastated at being the disposable person he's always felt like since a childhood filled with pain and abandonment. With Molly's betrayal, he finds solace in alcohol and faceless one night stands.
Molly and the General (as opposed to his mother the Commander) immediately hit it off, much to the displeasure of teen half sister Jessie, but soon the honeymoon is over when dad is accused of killing his embezzling business partner. Molly returns to ask Hunter to defend her father, discovering that he has indeed moved on and has another woman warming his bed. After some cajoling from his friends, he heads to Connecticut to lend a hand. The sparks continue to fly as the two discover that its not enough that they provide reasonable doubt, they need to find alternate suspects too. But the deeper they delve into the case, the more they find that the General is hiding. Could he be guilty?
Phillips sure can write a sensual love scene, and there are aplenty! First introduced as secondary characters in Phillip's "Cross My Heart" (one of her better novels), I just didn't feel the same connection - the characters barely resembled the promising duo they were in the original. The chemistry and sensuality are there, but the story gets bogged down with too much emphasis on their tortured childhoods (thought Hunter definitely has her beat) and inability to commit. Comic relief is provided by scenery stealing Ollie the macaw. The epilogue is also totally awkward - suddenly in teen Jessie's POV, and no real mention of the killer's penance.

This is a really great read!! Once you start it you can't put it down. The characters of Hunter and Molly really develop and mature from the start to the finish....I would recommend it to everyone.
