Review: The Problem With Neighbors - Book #1 The Town of Gentry Series - M.Morgan - February 2025

If you’re after a small-town romance that packs a punch, M. Morgan’s The Problem with Neighbors is everything you need and more. After devouring Morgan’s dark romance These Vicious Games, I was intrigued to see what her take on a lighter, funnier romance would be—and wow, did it deliver!

Marcilynn’s fresh start in the quaint town of Gentry is anything but easy. Moving on from a painful betrayal by her ex-fiancé and sister, she’s ready to open her dog grooming business and live life on her own terms. Enter Tucker Dixon, her grumpy but undeniably handsome neighbor who keeps getting in her way (in the best possible way). From the get-go, their chemistry is undeniable, but what starts as a reluctant, fake relationship quickly turns into something much more real.

Tucker, a lifelong Gentry resident, likes his quiet, routine-driven life, and the last thing he needs is a messy, sassy neighbor who somehow manages to win over his dog. But Marcilynn’s chaos proves impossible to ignore, and before long, he’s pulled into her drama, resulting in one of the most endearing fake relationships I’ve read in a long time.

What truly made this book shine, aside from the sizzling romance, was the cast of characters that made Gentry feel like home. Marcilynn’s loveable quirks and Tucker’s brooding charm were perfectly balanced, while the side characters—especially Jerry and the quirky women of the Book Club—brought so much warmth and humor to the story. Oh, and let’s not forget Tucker’s dog Dozer, who definitely steals the show with his cuteness.

This book blends romance, comedy, and a touch of suspense seamlessly. It took me a few days to get through, but that’s more a reflection of my hectic life than the book itself. If you're in the mood for a heartfelt, funny, and a little bit spicy read, The Problem with Neighbors will fill your jar of good reads right to the brim!

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

Review: Mother's Instinct - Barbara Abel - Reprinted 2023 Imagine you and your next-door neighbors become the best of friends, so much that you practically live at each other's houses and then you end up getting pregnant at the same time and both have boys who become like brothers and they both have names starting with "M" - Max and Milo. The boys grow up and are inseparable, that is until tragedy happens and one of those boys ends up dying. One family grieves, while the other tries to protect their son and then eventually the parent with the child starts to get paranoid that something might happen to her son, as you know a "Mother's Instinct" is strong. Mother's Instinct was a twisted read that the ending blew me away as I didn't see that coming. Upon more research after finishing the book, I saw that it had been made into a Belgium movie and it's also being made into a US movie starring Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain. Reading the boo...
