Healing Kiss by Amanda Uhl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I did nothing but read this book since yesterday. Determined to finish it. I had so many questions and my curiosity had to be fulfilled. Zoey is amazing. The way she protects her loved ones. I can see why she had a hard time letting anyone in. Tristan took me a bit to warm up to. On one hand I understand his desire to take some of that burden away from Zoey but at times it came off forceful.

Amazing. This is the first book I have read by the talented Amanda Uhl, and I found myself up way too late this morning unable to put it down. Told from the dual perspectives of Lillian and Tristan, this book is sure to make you fall in love from start to finish with the characters.
Lillian Milano has been hiding under an alias for two years, Zoey Mills, away from her family alone to protect them. When her younger sister Hannah is suddenly sick with a deadly virus, she risks everything to return to Cleveland to help her. While at the hospital doing all that she can she meets the computer tycoon Tristan King, while leaving the room of a little girl. Tristan King is the most eligible bachelor in Cleveland but meeting the mysterious Zoey gives him a mystery to solve that will forever change both of their lives. The connection between them is instant, neither understanding why they are so willing to share things that they usually keep bottled up. Tristan, while skeptical, is willing to take a chance when evidence is in front of him in two cases that Zoey (Lillian) is more than she appears to be and truly has some kind of gift for healing the sick. What starts out as a confusing but mutually beneficial agreement quickly turns into something deeper. Lillian’s mother was murdered by Kinetica, a genetic research and testing company that used her mother trying to make “super healers”, but she escaped leading them to finish her off but not before she was able to warn Lillian who fled her home and her family. Tristan being so focused on her notices that she is frightened and not just about her “friend”, seeing her physically become ill with fear when face to face with Dominic Raines the CEO of Kinetica he begins to have more and more questions calling his security company and friend Brian Townsend to investigate her. Leading to even more questions which are tangled with their deep feelings that build.
Lillian can save her sister but what will happen next? Has Tristan found a miracle worker that can help his mother? Will Zoey (Lillian) and Tristan be able to give into their hearts desires and get a happily ever after that neither thought was possible? While the world the author creates is one of reality the sprinkles of the paranormal and supernatural leaves you searching for more answers. The characters are perfect, their different facets that make them more complex than they appear on the surface, the way both felt the same, but fear and skepticism kept them trying to deny their hearts. I could not get enough of this book and didn’t stop until I had reached the end with all the answers we were searching for. I can’t wait to read more from the amazing Amanda Uhl and look forward to Hannah and Brian’s story.

This is my first book from Amanda Uhl and what an amazing first it was! The very first page grabs hold of your attention and never lets go. I couldn’t put it down and devoured the whole book in a matter of hours. The flow was natural and there were plenty of details that made the characters feel so real. I was entirely too invested in Lillian and Tristan throughout the entire book! It gets quite emotional, but definitely worth the read. I highly recommend picking this up, especially if you are a fan of the paranormal and romance genres!

Lillian Milano isn’t like most paranormals in her world. She takes energy from the healthy to help heal the sick. This power puts a target straight on her back and puts her and everyone she loves in danger. All of her fears are put on hold when her sister becomes deathly ill, and she’ll do anything to help heal her.
Tristan King is, in short, a billionaire. After being burned by his ex, and with his mother dying, he doesn’t want or need another relationship.
Tristan is so full of life and energy, exactly the energy Lillian needs, and she’s got something he needs as well: a single night with no attachments to get his ex off his back.
I devoured this book. It was so fast paced, emotional, humorous, and full of excitement. I really hope this is the start of a series, because I’d love to read more in this universe!
Lillian is so loving and caring for everyone around her and Tristan is so calm and collected. The two balance one another out nicely. Definitely a great read, I’d recommend to anyone who loves the paranormal!

Looking through books to read, I was so intrigued with this plot that I had to give it a try. A mix of supernatural and romance, just my cup of tea! It starts with Lillian, who has a magical healing ability, and tries using her skills in healing her sister. She ends up bumping into Tristan King who may end up being to help her heal her sister. In turn, as they become more familiar with each other’s situations, they end up helping each other out but only to have secrets unravel. I truly enjoyed this book. Related to Lilian’s spirit. This story captivates the reader from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go till the end. Very much worth the read!

This was an enjoyable and engaging paranormal romance which kept me hooked. Nurse Lillian Milano has the paranormal ability to channel energy from the healthy to heal the sick. However, her unique gift is wanted by an organisation that wants to exploit this talent. Due to the danger both her and her family are in Lillian went into hiding, but then her sister becomes gravely ill, and she needs to find someone with enough vitality to save her. Billionaire computer genius Tristan King is that person, however he does not believe in the supernatural. Lillian and Tristan make a bargain, she must pose as his date for a hospital fundraiser, in the hopes that his lying ex-fiancé will finally leave him alone, and he will help her. Tristan’s mother is also dying and as the pair work together to save their loved ones they can’t ignore their mutual attraction. However, Tristan remains wary of falling in love and Lillian is worried that her secrets and her identity will be discovered. I liked the main characters as both Lillian and Tristan were likeable and relatable, and their chemistry came across in the narrative. The storyline flowed well and was a good mix of drama, the paranormal and romance.

This is an enjoyable paranormal romance which focuses on Lillian and Tristan. Ultimately a story about love, both romantic and familial, as they both fight to save their loved ones.
I loved the character Lillian – she’s so strong in the face of the danger, and risks everything for her sister. Her determination to save her is admirable and I think her fears and desires are written well.
I got very invested in the characters’ stories and the outcome of the events they go through.
I enjoyed the writing style used in the book, it was easy to follow, and valuable information was drip-fed at the perfect times to make it feel more real and aids the story. The author built chemistry between characters so that it was almost tangible, and I couldn’t get enough!
This was the first book I’ve read by the author, but I’ll be on the lookout for more!

Healing Kiss tells the story of a nurse named Lillian who has been on the run from an evil corporation who wants to use her as their guinea pig. To save herself and her family she faked her death and took on the new name of Zoey. Lillian/Zoey has healing powers that the evil corporation, Kinetica, want to monopolize on for their own gain. Lillian knows that if they capture her, she will be dead because they killed her mother. When she finds out that her sister Hannah is dying, she risks her life to come back and try to save her sister’s life. When she gets to the hospital, she discovers that she does not have enough energy to save her and needs to find someone she can draw energy from. Enter Tristan, whom Lillian meets by accident outside the hospital. She strikes up a deal with him without telling him the true reasons she needs his help because she is fearful of Tristan’s reaction. Rather than tell him about her healing powers she makes up a story, but secrets have a way of coming out eventually.
I loved how this storyline was laid out and the author’s writing style. The story was about more than two people meeting and eventually falling in love. It was also about the supernatural gift that Lillian had which came at a risk to use. Lillian’s gift of healing powers was one that intrigued and fascinated me. It was unfortunate that she had to hide it and herself from those that intended to bring harm to her and her family. I enjoyed the aspect of the evil corporation being after Lillian which added a bit of danger, suspense, and intrigue to the storyline. The characters were well written and the way in which Lillian and Tristan meet is quite believable. Fate brought them both together for a bigger purpose. I enjoyed how the romance slowly builds between them and the attraction between them grows. This was a beautifully written love story with supernatural elements, mystery, suspense, intrigue, danger, secrets, and lies.

It’s hard separating yourself from your family in order to protect them. This is something Lillian aka Zoey knows all too well as she hides from the Kinetica Organization, which continues to seek her out in order to study and replicate her abilities for their own gain. When Hannah, her sister, becomes gravely ill, Lillian/Zoey will do whatever it takes to help her, even if it means risking herself and letting others know about her gifts.
Is seeing believing? Billionaire and skeptic Tristan King sees her heal a young girl without really realizing what she’s done, though something about her has piqued his interests. The sparks between Lillian/Zoey and Tristan are evident from the start, but will acting on them derail the healing of her sister and his mom? Can she really save their lives by harnessing his energy? Will they ever let their walls down and be able to trust and believe one another?
This is a great paranormal read. Amanda Uhl has a way with words that will pull you into the story, making you completely invested in these characters’ lives. She is definitely going on my author go to pile with amazing books like this. I can’t wait to read more of her work. If you love paranormal romances with suspense, secrets, and great chemistry, then, this is a book for you.

Mysteriously vague at just the right amount.
Healing kiss is a slow burning romance that unravels the past the open a future. Lilian, left home under the guise and new identify of zoey. Rushing home to save her sister she meets a Tristan. Strong dependable, loyal and madly in love with her everything she dreamt of but she can’t have him. Zoey pushes Tristan away protecting him in fear of her discovery. Zoey inadvertently brings the risk of death by association. She desperately wants a normal life. But is that something even possible for zoey Lilian ?
This book is slow paced, the world building is good but leaves me wanting to know how things happened in her past to connect the dots at a faster pace with more understanding. The plot unfolds based on the main characters realization and situations. There is a spicy scene and does end in a happy ending with an epilogue hinting at a potential future book. I’m excited to see if the author continues a sequel based on Lilian’s sister Hannah

This is my first time reading a book from the author Amanda Uhl. I really really enjoyed reading it. Although it doesn’t have the usual supernatural beings you’re used to in these types of books, but it was just as good. And the power they do have is super interesting and unique. The authors did an amazing job pulling you into the intriguing world she has built. Also the attraction between Lillian/Zoey and Tristan is just the chef’s kiss. I would highly recommend this book to everyone, just make sure you have free time lmao you’re not gonna want to put this book down.

Healing Kiss is the first book I have read by this author so I did not quite know what to expect but this was a beautifully written book. Between the mayhem, romance, and emotional heartstrings that are pulled I couldn’t put this one down.
Lillian is a healer, her gifts make her an excellent nurse, but with a gift as valuable as it is they also make her a large target for Kinetica. A large corporation looking to essentially bottle her DNA to use to gain power and make money. Now Hannah, her sister, is gravely ill and after a chance encounter with Tristan, Lillian discovers he is the only one she knows with enough vitality for her to draw off to heal her sister. Tristan doesn’t believe in the supernatural at all but with his own mother dying and other conflicts in his life he strikes a deal with the intriguing nurse. The problem is as their relationship grows their secrets become closer than ever to being discovered. Can they manage to save their loved ones while keeping everyone in the dark about their abilities?
This is a magical, slow burn romance, that had me turning pages until the very last one. There is enough action and events that happen to keep the reader engaged in the story even as they wait for the romance to blossom. I really enjoyed this book and will definitely take a look at others this author has written.

Healing Kiss is a paranormal romance and not my normal genre of choice. That being said, I actually enjoyed this book more than I thought that I would. Lillian Milano has a special gift; she can heal the sick by drawing energy from the healthy. When authorities in an organization called Kinetica catch wind of her paranormal gift, she goes into hiding with the alias “Zoey Mills”. Kinetica wants to do research in order to use Lillian’s power for awful reasons. Unfortunately Hannah, her sister, has become gravely ill and is in desperate need of a miracle. Even Lillian’s power can not help her sister, and while in the hospital, she meets Tristan King. Tristan is in need of help himself, and they strike a deal. As time goes on, they become closer. This book is filled with drama, trust and distrust, suspense and action with sides of psychic ability and elements of loss and fear. I gave a 4 star only because of how predictable I found this to be, and the cliche of “girl in distress wins over the handsome billionaire”, but overall still a good read.

I really enjoyed how easily the story progressed. The characters were very well developed and had great depth. Lillian is a nurse in hiding from the big bad Kinetica who wants her DNA to advance their power. Her sister is ill and Lillian is a healer but needs something more to heal her. Can she find that something or someone and stay off Kinetica’s radar? This is a really good paranormal romance complete with all the magic, mysticism and mystery you would hope for in this genre.

I totally devoured this story up in one sitting…totally engrossed and loved each and every page. This is a great read for anyone who loves paranormal, magic, a little bit of romance and danger and protecting loved ones at all costs.
All Lillian wants is to heal her sister, whom is in grave condition. Lillian tries to use her gift of healing but needs help along the way. When Lillian discovers someone whom may help her and her sister, it is none other than Tristan King, who is highly recognizable in society. Tristan is smart and rich but also dealing with his own family issues when it comes to mortality. When Lillian and Tristan team up, Lillian skirts around the truth while Tristan is suspicious and wants to help. With danger lurking at every corner, Lillian feels like she is looking over her shoulder constantly to make sure her family is not in danger….but will it be enough with the help of Tristan?
This is a great story and I highly recommend this read…….this book took me by total surprise and in a great way. Looking forward to reading more from this author!

Healing Kiss is a paranormal romance that captured my attention. The story starts strong and keeps up the pace throughout the story. Lillian has a healing power that makes her an amazing nurse. Her powers put her at risk from a dangerous organization. Tristan King a billionaire, knows that something is different but amazing about Lillian. Will they be able to assist each other?
As I mentioned, the story starts and does not stop. I was immediately drawn in and did not want to put it down. The characters are interesting, and Lillian was a mystery to me at first. I wanted to understand her power and what she was hiding from. When you add Tristan’s part of the story, it expands Lillian’s story but also helps to expand the world they live in. I enjoyed the paranormal aspects of the story, and it only added to the intrigue of the book. This was my first book by this author, but she hooked me. I look forward to reading more from her in the future.

Lillian Milano, who goes by Zoey, siphons energy from the healthy and gives it to the sick to heal them. An organization called Kinetica used her mother who had the same healing powers until she died. Knowing this, Lillian decides to leave her home and live on the run. She gets news that her sister is ill and she risks coming home to save her.
Lillian’s sister seems to be too far gone for her to heal her without help. When she meets Tristan, he has loads of energy to spare. Lillian approaches him and asks for his help. He has to visit her sister in the hospital for an hour or two and Lillian would be his date for an upcoming fundraiser.
Unfortunately, Tristan is too curious for his own good. He keeps getting suspicious of Lillians answers and reactions. He starts looking into her closely. Meanwhile Lillian is freaking out, scared she will be found by Kinetica if she isn’t careful. It doesn’t help that the couple has this fiery chemistry between them.
If Lillian is exposed, it could mean disaster for her family and for Tristan if he doesn’t stop digging around Lillian’s past but how can she walk away when she has never felt this way about anyone before?
I enjoyed this book. It was suspenseful with a romantic element and a hint of supernatural abilities. Lillian was so exhausted from everything. She just wants to give up but sheer determination keeps her going. I really respected that about her. The author did a really fine job implementing different emotions. I found myself egging Lillian on, hoping she can finally stop running. I thought Tristan was a little too headstrong but it was what Lillian needed to finally start tearing down some walls.
Healing Kiss by Amanda Uhl is a beautiful contemporary love story, with a touch of magic, a dash of suspense, and just a sprinkle of spice. The story follows Lillian Milano (Alias of Zoey). She has the ability to transfer energy in order to heal the sick. Apart form making her a very effective nurse, it also makes her a very large target. Her gifts put her and those she loves in danger from an organization who will stop at nothing to exploit her gifts. When her sister becomes deathly ill, Lillian will do anything to save her. Including excepting the help of a handsome stranger. But when being near Tristan King, the billionaire computer genius puts her at risk of all of her secrets coming to light, will she be able to fight the pull that his presence inspires or will she guard her heart and her secret? This book has great suspense and character development. While maintaining the slow burn of a will they wont they. If you like romance that is light on the spice and heavy on the build up then this one is for you. 4.5 out of 5 Starts. I absolutely devoured this story and loved the relationship between Lillian and Tristan.

I was drawn to Healing Kiss by the synopsis and premise of a paranormal romance. I was hooked from the very beginning and in suspense surrounding Kinetica.

I really hope to read more from this author in the near future.

Ohhh how I wish there was more when this one ended! Lily has a gift of healing. Tristan is someone who has a lot of energy in him and can help Lily.
After being in hiding for a few years and even going to the extent of faking her death to avoid a corrupt business who would abuse her gift. Lily finds herself needing someone like Tristan in order to heal her sister who is gravely ill.
Never did Lily think her truth would be found by Tristan and that she’d fall in love and have to reveal her true self. Tristan doesn’t abandon her like she thought he would, but instead took down the corrupt business because of her! Can they come together and survive knowing each other’s truth?!? Read on to find out!
At the end I found myself wishing there was more, especially with Brian and Hannah. Oh how I need to know his story now!

Healing kiss by Amanda Uhl is a story full of love and the paranormal makes it that more interesting.
To save her sister, who is dying. Lillian Milano is a remarkable nurse because she uses energy from the healthy to heal the sick. However, a group that will do anything to take advantage of Lillian’s gift is putting her and the people she cares about in jeopardy. Rich computer whiz Tristan King is the only man with enough vigor to save her sister’s life when she falls seriously ill. However, being close to him poses a threat to her privacy and could dismantle the barriers she has put up to protect her emotions.

Lillian returns to Cleveland to use her healing powers on her sister. She must do so undercover because there is an organization that will stop at nothing to get her and use her for what she can do. However, her get in-heal-get out plan hits a snag when she runs into Tristan. The two strike up a mutually beneficial agreement in order to gain the other’s help…but they never expected feelings to get involved. Each has built walls around their hearts due to others using them for their own gain…but can they open up to each other before it is too late?!?
I enjoyed reading this story. Lillian is always looking over her shoulder and lives a life of solitude to protect those around her. But, it is at the expense of her own happiness. Tristan works hard to get past those walls…but, once again, Lillian is trying to protect him by sacrificing hers own wants (even through it is super frustrating as a reader!). When tragedy strikes, will they find their way back to each other? (You have to read to find out). Overall, a good paranormal romance story that I enjoyed reading.

The summary of the story sounded interesting and nothing like what I have read about before so i was quick to get it downloaded and read it on my free evening.

I really enjoyed this paranormal romance. The story is unique and I love the characters. Lillian is a really strong and determined character. Because of her abilities she is being hunted so she was forced into hiding but when her sister becomes ill she returns to save her, however she doesn’t have as much energy as she needs. She needs someone different, someone full of vitality energy to help fight and save her sister.
And she finds that in a Billionaire Tristain. Can she get him to help her sister? What will happen when she is seen with a popular Billionaire? Will her cover be blown after all these years?
Tristan doesn’t believe in anything paranormal. She when Lillian tries to explain her abilities he doesn’t believe her. However he has his own problems, with his mother dying could Lillian be the answer to saving his mother?
This is a very emotional story about 2 people trying to save the ones they love no matter what the cost. Even if that means Lillian’s cover is blown and the people she is running from finds her again.
I was really invested in these characters and their story. Once I started reading I couldn’t put it down.
