But He's My Grumpy Neighbor

Annah Conwell

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

It’s not stalking if he’s your hot neighbor… right? At least, that’s what I tell myself when Adrian Carter moves in next door. His scowl should make me want to run in the other direction, but when I catch him smothering a smile around me, it makes me want to get to know him more. And when Adrian starts to open up, I find myself falling in love with the cinnamon roll center hidden beneath his gruff exterior. But between my emotional baggage and his aversion to relationships, it’s looking like we’ll never be more than neighborly. But He’s My Grumpy Neighbor is a cozy grumpy/sunshine romcom for lovers of small-town romantic comedies. It has all the sizzling chemistry you love, without any explicit scenes. Check out the first book of the But He’s A Carter Brother Series, a series based around four strong, protective brothers finding love.

    “But He’s My Grumpy Neighbor” by Annah Conwell left me feeling completely underwhelmed. While the premise of a grumpy/sunshine romance sounded promising, the execution fell flat. The characters were bland and unoriginal, making it hard to care about either of them. Adrian’s lack of trust, attributed vaguely to the CIA, was a plot point that felt forced and needed more development to be believable or engaging.

    The story suffered from a lot of telling rather than showing, which resulted in a world that lacked depth and failed to draw me in. I felt the chemistry between the characters was nonexistent, and I couldn’t feel any genuine connection or tension between them. In general, this book wasn’t memorable enough for me to consider recommending it. It’s a pass from me, unfortunately, as it didn’t deliver the cozy, engaging romance I was hoping for. I hope this book finds the audience that will love it.
