About this listen
Neighbors to lovers can be a risky proposition in this funny, sexy, and swoony romantic comedy between a single mother and the grumpy man next door by USA Today bestselling author Adriana Locke.
When Gabrielle Solomon falls, she falls hard. Even if that means literally toppling over a porch railing in nothing but a flimsy towel—right in front of her sexy new neighbor.
Jay Stetson is 100 percent hero material with those arms, that chest, and his deliciously oh-so-sexy smirk. The chiseled hunk in flannel has an irresistible off-limits attitude while plucking Gabrielle out of the bushes and saving her from a snake. Unfortunately, he’s not indulging in what Gabrielle is offering—not with his emotional train wreck of a past.
Just neighbors. Just friends. Or so he says.
Secretly, he’s smitten with the single, fierce mama bear of two who plays Miss Fix-It at the house next door. He doesn’t even really mind the noise or the chaos her young sons cause. What he does mind is how his lonely heart races when looking into her emerald-colored eyes.
Can Jay let his painful memories go, or will he let the woman of his dreams slip between his fingers?

Even of it is a short book, the story is not rushed. It kept me entertained from the start, with a funny meet cute between Gabrielle and Jay. Their interactions were interesting, filled with tension, banter and sparks.
They have chemistry from the start, but the relationship is a bit of a slow burn. Both have trauma from previous relationships and needed to take in consideration that there are kids involved.
Even if Carter, the young kid, befriended Jay immediately, the situation is more complicated with Dylan, who is a teenager.
I would have liked for them to communicate better, as they are both mature adults, instead of assuming some things after a short conversation.
🎧 It was a good experience listening to the audiobook.
Narrators Rachel Vivette and Oliver Clarke managed to bring the characters to life and express their feelings using their voices. The story was improved through their performances.
Looking forward to reading other books from the author and listening to other book with these narrators.
