I received this book for review from Sourcebooks.
Summary: He's just looking for peace, quiet and a little romance...
Hunky all-star pitcher and shapeshifter Jason Falco buys an old Boston brownstone apartment building as an investment. But when Merry MacKenzie moves into the ground floor apartment, the playboy pitcher decides he might just be done playing the field.
On her own for the first time, she just wants to have fun...
Jason seems like the perfect fling, but sexy nurse Merry's not sure she's ready to trust him with her heart...especially when the tabloids start trumpeting his playboy lifestyle.
Then pandemonium breaks loose when the vampire who lives in the basement and the werewolf from upstairs join forces to make it almost impossible for Merry and Jason to get together.
Thoughts: Merry has just moved out on her own for the first time. She loves her new townhouse apartment. Her new landlord Jason is very easy on the eyes. Jason himself hopes to snag some alone time with his new tenant. But throw in a vampire, a werewolf, a ghost, two witches and a nosy aunt and craziness is bound to ensue.
I loved the premises of this book. Paranormal creatures as neighbors- talk about never having a dull moment. Strange Neighbors was a light enticing read. Funny, romantic with healthy dose of the paranormal. This story had an entertaining cast of characters. The ending was one of my favorite parts and I don't mean that in a bad way, I just thought Jason and Merry's HEA was really sweet and the perfect ending.
Score: 4 Stars

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words and excellent review, Anna!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you liked the ending. I really do too. It was my critique partner who suggested she be given one last chance to back out.
I won't say any more or I'll need to yell, "Spoiler alert!"
