Resumen del Editor

He crossed an ocean, and it still wasn’t enough to escape his lifelong nemesis. Now he has to work with her.

Successful screenwriter Finn Masters just landed his dream job writing for Neighbors, one of Hollywood’s highest-rated, longest-running sitcoms. The only downside? It will put him back in proximity of the show’s universally adored, optimistic, altruistic star, Lavender Rhodes, who has been inadvertently ruining his life since they were school chums in England. But she doesn’t even know she destroyed his acting career and wrecked his relationship with the love of his life.

He’s not about to let this woman yank yet another dream out from under his feet. In fact, he realizes he’s been given the ideal opportunity to plot his payback: spinning her character in shocking new directions. What could go wrong? Only everything. As Finn’s not-so-brilliant plot backfires one scene after the next, catching him in the blasts, he’s forced to think about this impossible, infuriating…and maybe even lovable woman in an entirely new light.

The characters were likable.

The narrators were great and the story had moments of humor. You wanted to root for Finn and Lavender to get together.

Reminds me of a 90s Rom Com

No adult level just romantic. Only level of intimacy is kisses and such no bedroom scenes.

rom-com gold status

This book is brilliant! The way Finn is a good guy trying way too hard to be a bad guy! The way lavender a modern day, down to earth, bottle of sunshine! The way he try’s desperately to avoid her while being glued to her hip! The way he’s horribly unsuccessful at revenge while she sabotages his efforts with a plan of her own. If you like broody vs. hippy or enemy to lover this book will have you giggling with glee from start to finish.

Fun story

Great narrators. Fun story. Made me laugh several times. I recommend if you want a light story.

Surprisingly Funny

This is a silly and fun listen. I really enjoyed it and loved being able to recommend it to my teenage daughter because it is clean. It reminds me of a classic romcom that I turn back to over and over.

LOVED IT! So fun!!

I so enjoyed this book, the creativity of the story line and character development was so good! I’m sad it’s over!! One of my favorite writers, keep em coming Melissa!
Both of the narrators did a wonderful job!

Sweet story!

Very sweet story. I love the character development of Finn. Lavender is such a kind and likable character. Just a very nice, sweet love story!

Feel good- loved the characters

Funny, lighthearted and entertaining. Not exactly what I expected but very cute. I truly enjoyed the characters. I would recommend to anyone looking for a sweet book. Very much in line with Melissa’s style if you like her others.

Sweet Romance

Everyone has different preferences, but I do not want language or open door/steamy scenes in my books. This book delivered on that. Easy to like characters with a light and entertaining story.
