Resumen del Editor

A shy bookworm enlists her charming neighbor to help her score a date, not knowing he’s the obscure author she’s been corresponding with, in this sparkling and heart-fluttering romance by Kristina Forest.

Shy, bookish, and admittedly awkward, Lily Greene has always felt inadequate compared to the rest of her accomplished family, who strive for Black excellence. She dreams of becoming a children’s books editor, but she’s been frustratingly stuck in the nonfiction division for years without a promotion in sight. Lily finds escapism in her correspondences with her favorite fantasy author, and what begins as two lonely people connecting over email turns into a tentative friendship and possibly something else Lily won’t let herself entertain—until he ghosts her without a word.

Months later, Lily is still crushed, but she’s determined to get a hold of her life, starting with finding a date to her sister’s wedding. And the perfect person to help her is Nick Brown, her charming, attractive new neighbor, who she feels drawn to for reasons she can’t explain. But little does she know, Nick is an author—her favorite fantasy author.

Nick, who has his reasons for using a pen name and pushing people away, soon realizes that the beautiful, quiet girl from down the hall is the same Lily he fell in love with over email months ago. Unwilling to complicate things even more between them, he agrees to set her up with someone else, though this simple favor between two neighbors is anything but—not when he can't get her off his mind...

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] warm and welcoming new contemporary...the book breathes easily and pulls you right into its world. Especially recommended for anyone who ships Janine and Gregory from Abbott Elementary."—The New York Times Book Review

“The Neighbor Favor is the type of charming, feel-good story that reminds me why I love romance. I dare anyone to try reading Lily and Nick’s adorably awkward encounters without smiling. Impossible.”—Farrah Rochon, New York Times bestselling author of The Hookup Plan

"Forest expertly balances this perfectly matched duo’s emotional connection with their physical chemistry, making them easy to cheer on. This is a winner."—Publishers Weekly, starred review

Nick’s Sexy Voice

I haven’t enjoyed a book in such a while. A book about Black characters that is just about someone’s life. The voice of Nick is phenomenal.

Amazing

This books needs to become a movie.
I was captivated start to finish. Netflix please make this happen!

The Romance in This

I literally listened to this in 2 days and couldn’t stop once I started it! Such a great read/listen. So romantic and spicy!!

Take a Leap

This romance story is for and about nerds who fall in love. Haphazardly awkward and still able to fit like missing puzzle pieces is how I’d describe the two protagonists Nick and Lily. The novel allows the reader to find out how much hope and security is needed and the love we give one another is everything; so take a leap of faith and believe in yourself as Nick and Lily both decide to do.

Very Cute

Cute book I recommend reading it. I loved the story line and how it ended it was a very easy read and I’ll be adding this book to my collection.

Must read

I love this book. It’s a must. I hope the author writes a part two.

Simply a sweet read

I’m a sucker for romance. This book was the sweetest from start to finish. The characters were great. The narrator’s were phenomenal.

Cute Love Story

This book starts off slow. But it's so CUTE! Very light and fast paced once you get into it. I love that the characters seem so real via the narrators.

Great Book

Loved the story! Romance with pure love and black love with no heart break for the main characters!

It was good, the male voice was so boring.

Story was ok, and the male voice was boring. I liked how happy the female voice was. And that the male is getting therapy.
