Voto: 4.5 stelle.
Ho letto praticamente tutto quello che la Cochet ha tradotto da noi e anche alcuni libri che devono ancora arrivare in Italia. Mi piace molto come autrice, ma ci sono storie sue che ho amato di più e altre meno… Questa, nella sua semplicità, l’ho trovata deliziosa. Per questo le do 4 stelle e mezzo.
Spencer mi ha fatto ridere di cuore con le sue figuracce e la sua caratterizzazione da bravo ragazzo nerd un po’ sfigatello, ma che non si arrende; Quinn da burbero e solitario si scioglie, dimostrando cosa c’è sotto; la sua stramba, invadente e amorevole famiglia cubana è un punto bonus che ho adorato.
È un libro breve ma decisamente piacevole, senza drammi ma ricco di coccole, sorrisi e dolcezza. Da leggere per regalarsi un momento di serenità e per raddrizzare una giornata storta.

Cute, feel good, and quite funny despite a meddling prick of an asshole friend who can’t mind his own damn freakin beeswax!!! Can you say cringe worthy rage?? I can’t even.
Sweet, kind Spencer has a serious crush on his neighbor, and Quinn’s on the job injury is definitely the perfect opportunity to get to know him.
Grumpy, loner Quinn is skeptical of his strange neighbor, especially after a disastrous first meeting. However Spencer’s tenacity surprises both of them, and as they get to know each other, sparks fly.
I can’t ignore that horrible situation stated above as much as I want to. Otherwise, this was a very enjoyable short.

Cute! I love when a guy has a huge family and they welcome the partner with open arms taking him in and immediately treating him like family. It's awesome.

I listened to this the second time through, which bumped my rating up. It was great on audio. Such a sweet, cute book - really glad I got it on audio.

A sweet intro into who Quinn and Spencer are. Not sure why I expected more story (like, beyond their meeting/relationship beginning). They're mentioned often enough in the rest of the Four Kings books that I guess I just thought we'd get a wider glimpse. Still, a quick, sweet, enjoyable read.
re-read: this short look at Quinn and Spencer remains absolutely adorable.
