Story Behind The Book
Writing Kylie's Kiss was a special blessing to me! I wanted to incorporate someone with a phobia of facial scarring, and of course have another character with facial scars. My interest in this topic came about after a happened on a website about a California therapy camp for teen girls with facial scars, deformities, or other disfigurations. The concept fascinated me, epecially after reading a few of the girls' stories. I HAD to use the concept in a book. Now...how to incorporate those things into a romance? Well, I was in the process of writing a series based around a Christian dating agency, so the opportunity was too good to pass up. Besides, who wouldn't need an angel in Kylie's situation: a girl with a phobia of facial scars, falling in love with a man who is not only in the process of founding a camp like the one I mentioned above, but also has a precious little daughter with severe facial scarring? Read the book to see how it works out...

Sometimes, it’s tough understanding someone who has a real, life-impacting fear that affects how they function. Yet I’d say the general population has some fear that another person would consider irrational.</span><span style="font-size:12px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"></span></p><span style="font-size:12px;"></span><p style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS';"><span style="font-size:12px;">If you’re looking for a sweet romance with “real” characters, try Delia Latham’s new novel, <strong><em>Kylie’s Kiss</em></strong>. <br /> <br /></span><br /><span style="font-size:12px;"><strong><a href="http://love2readnovels.blogspot.com/2011/04/kylies-kiss-by-delia-latham.html">Sherry Kuhn</a></strong></span></p><p style="font-family:'yui-tmp';"></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';font-size:12px;">This is such a sweet book that touches some deep hurts. I think this is a great book to give young preteens to young adult women. I am much older than that and loved it but I do feel it would be a great book for girls that age to read. It could dispel some untruths that they have already started believing about themselves. It is a book with humor and joy. A book of redemption and mended relationships. A book of healing. A must read.</p><span style="font-size:12px;"></span><span style="font-size:12px;"><a href="http://terriharr.blogspot.com/2011/04/kylies-kiss-by-delia-latham.html"><strong>Terri Harr</strong></a></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size:11px;font-family:'Trebuchet MS';">This is such a sweet book that touches some deep hurts.
