A modern tale of unexpectedly falling in love and finding your voice, Kiss the Girl is the highly anticipated third installment in the acclaimed and best-selling Meant to Be collection. Ariel del Mar is one of the most famous singers in the world. She and her sisters—together, known as the band Siren Seven—have been a pop culture phenomenon since they were kids. On stage, wearing her iconic red wig and sequined costumes, staring out at a sea of fans, is where she shines. Anyone would think she's the girl who has everything. But lately, she wants more. Siren Seven is wrapping up their farewell tour, and Ariel can't wait to spend the summer just living a normal life—part of a world she's only ever seen from the outside. But her father, the head of Atlantica Records, has other plans: begin her breakout solo career immediately, starting with a splashy announcement on a morning talk show. The night before, Ariel and her sisters sneak out of their Manhattan penthouse for a night of incognito fun at a rock concert in Brooklyn. It's there that Ariel crosses paths with Eric Reyes, dreamy lead singer of an up-and-coming band. Unaware of her true identity, Eric spontaneously invites her on the road for the summer. And for the first time in her life, Ariel disobeys her father—and goes with him. Caught between the world she longs for and the one she's left behind, can Ariel follow her dreams, fall in love, and, somehow, find her own voice?

      After 15 years, pop star Ariel del Mar is ready to say goodbye to the Siren Seven, the group she and her six sisters turned into an international sensation, starting in their childhoods. However, before Ariel launches her new solo singing career, she would like to momentarily hit pause and just live life. When she attends a concert of the upand-coming rock band Star Crossed while incognito, Ariel unexpectedly meets the band's lead singer, Eric Reyes, which leads to one magical night and an offer from Eric to become the band's new merch person for their launch tour. But if Ariel takes this opportunity to be part of Eric's world, will it derail her own singing career? Or will it provide Ariel with the new experiences she needs to find her own voice? C�rdova puts her own clever, marvelously enchanting spin on The Little Mermaid, while at the same time gifting readers a sweet love story with just a hint of spice that joyfully celebrates the power of love and music in our lives.

      In this contemporary reimagining of The Little Mermaid, Ariel del Mar and her six sisters have given their last performance together as Siren Seven. After 15 years in the spotlight, the band will be retiring and taking a year off. Ariel has always been the obedient daughter, and when she learns of her father's plan for her to launch as a solo star, she agrees only if her sisters still get their rest. Before the news is announced, she sneaks out to attend a battle of the bands and has instant chemistry with Eric, the lead singer of a band on the verge of going viral. Returning to her suffocating fame and controlling father seems impossible for Ariel after a night with Eric, and she takes him up on his offer to go on the road with the band, leaving her fans and family wondering where she has gone. VERDICT In the third "Meant To Be" novel (after Jasmine Guillory's By the Book), C�rdova (The Inheritance of Orqu�dea Divina) hits all the right notes with sweet characters and the interesting angle of a pop star who has never had control or choices.--Nicole J.
