Needing the Next-Door Neighbor
(2023)(The sixth book in the California Dreamin' series)
A novel by Kristin Canary
My next-door neighbor, Ryan Rosche, is pretty much the perfect guy.
He’s a freaking doctor, for one.
Humble…
Mature (Did I mention he’s eleven years older than me?) …
And flat-out gorgeous.
If only he wasn’t also … my boss.
Look, if I wasn’t the nanny to his nieces, I’d be all. over. that.
But I’m in the middle of a personal crisis of sorts—a recent move, a public breakup, a foiled career—not to mention beholden to a successful CEO grandmother who is withholding my trust fund until I can become “respectable” in a way my mother never was.
Falling for my boss—blurring those lines—is just the sort of thing my mother would have done.
And I refuse to be anything like Pippa Montgomery.
Besides, even if it was respectable to date my boss, a hot mess like me could never hope to land this guy whose life is 100% together.
Someone like him could never want someone like me. Not long term, anyway. And I’m tired of being discarded.
But when I move into Ryan’s house to make my job easier, and ignite the chemistry of late-night reality TV watching, meal sharing, and helping him raise his nieces, how am I supposed to resist the good doctor’s charms?
It seems inevitable. This man is just a heartbreak waiting to happen…
Fans of Jenny Proctor and Emma St. Clair will love this closed-door, age gap, forced proximity, boss/nanny romantic comedy with lots of sizzle and spice, but no on-page explicit content. It follows Kennedy Matkin, Alexis Matkin's younger sister.
Genre: Romance
