Betting on the Boy Next Door by Melanie Jacobson
4.75
Thank you Melanie Jacobson the ARC! All opinions are my own.
Sami is a nurse at a nursing home. But she has a second secret life as a rockstar. And to complicate her life further, her roommate Ruby makes her a bet that she can find her a man to love. Little does Ruby know, Sami has no capacity in her life right now for a man, and their new neighbor Josh, whom Ruby picks, is a terrible choice anyway.
Josh, on paper, has a great life. He has a new condo, a great job as a corporate lawyer, and a great family. But he isn't really happy. When circumstances facilitate having his new neighbor, Sami, pose as his girlfriend, fake feelings may just be turning into more.
I thought this was a fun and pretty original rom com. Both characters realty had to explore their past traumas and learn to deal with them to make way for a new path. I liked how organic their relationship felt from the beginning.
This is a closed door rom com.
