Sexy Bad Neighbor by Misti Murphy, Tami Lund
4.0
Whilst this is a fun and frivolous book, it is also a really enjoyable and well written book. The hero and heroine are immensely likeable – Chloe is such a conflicted soul and clearly needs a confident man like Paynter to help her find her true self. Paynter is so caring and every time he seems about to give up on Chloe he sees something in her worth his effort.
On paper Chloe’s constant fluctuating of what she wants sounds like she would be an irritating character. But by seeing how she truly feels/worries when scenes are written from her POV, you can’t help but like her. The book is also written from Paynter’s POV which I felt helped the story flow and also gave me a better insight into their relationship.
The goat scenes near the end were just so heart-warming and gave me the fuzzy feel goods. The basic plot idea isn’t unique but the characters, depth of emotion, detailed story line and quality of writing work together to make this feel very different to many humdrum contemporary romances.
