BOOKWORM REVIEW: Skip to the End by Molly James
RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
SPICE: 🔥🔥
Amy Daniels isn't sure if her special ability is a curse or a blessing. With a kiss, she can see how their relationship would end. The excitement of every new connection is immediately squashed with a vision of irreconcilable differences. Resigned to her fate, she attends her best friend's wedding and parties it up, including kissing three men during her drunken shenanigans. Unfortunately for her, one of them turned out to be her happily ever after...if she can only remember which one.
This was a cute read. I love the premise of the story, and it delivered what was promised. (I did call who the HEA kiss was, though, but I still thought it was adorable nonetheless. It also spoke of the chemistry between Amy and HEA Guy.)
I also enjoyed the unexpected depth of Amy's story, especially related to her mom.
This standalone read is pretty mild on the spice. We get a super-brief moment and lots of kisses (obviously).

ABOUT THE BOOK
In this joyful romance, one wild night results in three kisses—only one successful—and leaves a perpetually single Amy searching for her perfect match so she can find a happy ending.
Amy Daniels has a pretty nice life. Her career is on the up, she loves her friends, and she's about to buy her very own flat. On a good day, Amy could be described as a catch—so why is she perpetually single?
The trouble is, Amy can see something no one else the end. As soon as she kisses someone, she knows, in intimate, vivid detail, how their relationship will finish. A screaming argument in the middle of the supermarket over milk. An explicit email sent to the wrong address. A hasty escape through a bathroom window on the second date. At the altar—runaway-bride style. There seems to be no end to the unhappy endings.
After years of trying, and failing, to change a pre-written future, Amy has given up. But then she drunkenly kisses three men at her best friend's wedding and sees three possible two painful, one perfect. The problem is, Amy can't really remember who she kissed, and worse, what ending belongs to which person—the only thing she knows for certain is that she's determined to find out...
