The Girl Next Door

The Girl Next Door


by Chelsea M. Cameron

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

 This a slow burn that had me at the edge of my seat, waiting for the explosion for over half the book!

Iris has just moved back in with her parents in a small East coast town. She’s failed at adulting and has returned to re-group before heading back to Boston and the big city lifestyle.

Jude is living next door to Iris’s parents. She was given the house by her parents. She has also recently returned after suffering a tragedy and is hiding out in her hometown. She doesn’t socialize and work by herself on a lobster boat. Everyday is the same, until Iris’s dog, Dolly bounds over to her one day…

This was a slow romances, Jude is wounded and Iris is unsure of herself and her reception from Jude. I loved how these two kept coming together (somewhat unwillingly by Jude), but every time, they made each other or part of their lives better. It was an uphill battle for sparkly positive Iris to pull Jude out of her shell that she was hiding in!

As alway, Carina Press delivers the happily ever after I crave! A cute read that I totally recommend!

The Girl Next Door by Chelsea M. Cameron is scheduled to release May 26th, 2020.

Book Description

The opposites-attract, sweet-and-sexy small-town romance you’ve been waiting for.

Iris Turner hightailed it out of Salty Cove, Maine, without so much as a backward glance. Which is why finding herself back in her hometown—in her childhood bedroom, no less—has the normally upbeat Iris feeling a bit down and out. Her spirits get a much-needed lift, though, at the sight of the sexy girl next door.

No one knows why Jude Wicks is back in Salty Cove, and that’s just how she likes it. Jude never imagined she’d be once again living in her parents’ house, never mind hauling lobster like a local. But the solitude is just what she needs—until Iris tempts her to open up.

A no-strings summer fling seems like the perfect distraction for both women. Jude rides a motorcycle, kisses hard and gives Iris the perfect distraction from her tangled mess of a life. But come September, Iris is still determined to get out of this zero-stoplight town.

That is, unless Jude can give her a reason to stay…

I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me!  ...
