"Will a love of Elvis lead Margo to the love of her life?"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Kiss Test
Shannon McKelden

Reviewed by Maria Munoz
Posted October 23, 2010

Life in New York is perfect for country music DJ Margo Gentry: the perfect job, a live-in boyfriend, great friends, and enough money to quench her thirst for Elvis memorabilia. Being named the nation's best Country DJ is just icing on the cake. That is, until her life gets all shock up. When Mom expects her presence in Los Angeles at wedding number 11(!), her boyfriend demands marriage (ain't gonna happen ever, with anyone!), and her country station turns Korean jazz, Margo finds herself jobless, homeless, and just a little hopeless.

To get her life back on track while taking a much needed vacation, Margo sets out on a combination road trip to LA and Elvis pilgrimage. Her driver and companion is Chris, best friend and inventor of the kiss test which he uses to determine if a woman is worth pursuing. He has kissed many frogettes, but has yet to find his princess. Will this road trip change that?

In THE KISS TEST, Shannon McKelden creatively uses the titles of Elvis songs to structure this tale of friendship transforming into romance. THE KISS TEST was well written with Chris and Margo encountering some entertaining obstacles on the road to Graceland, LA, and romance. As I read the story, I felt like I needed a little more from the story for it to be truly engaging: a little more funny, character's a little more likable, and the plot a little more fast-paced.
