The Neighbor Favor

This got off to a slow start for me. I usually love epistolary romances but these emails went on a bit long for me and the abrupt ending made my head tilt. When Lily and Nick run into each other again I was hoping to vibe off of their chemistry, and I’m not sure that I ever did.
There’s some cute scenes and it’s a good slow burn. I liked Nick helping Lily find a date and the fun things they went and did together to. Yet Nick, CONTINUALLY kept pushing Lily away and I got CONTINUALLY frustrated that it kept happening for the sake of stretching out the plot.
I did like the meddling sisters and their books are something I’m somewhat interested in giving a go (I’m hopeful we get those stories too!). I loved that Lily worked in publishing and enjoyed seeing her pursuits there and finding the niche she could settle in long term.
Kind of meh for me, but I do see that it could be a hit for others.
Overall audience notes:
- Contemporary Romance
- Lanugage: some strong
- Romance: a couple open door; moderate explicit
- Violence: low
- Trigger/Content Warnings: cheating (side character), alcoholism mentioned, car accident mentioned
