“love reading about book lovers, especially in romance books”
I have been waiting to read this book as soon as Kristina Forest announced it last year on Instagram. I always love reading about book lovers, especially in romance books. It touches close to home. Plus, it’s a diverse romance book as well!
The Neighbor Favor brings Lily more out of her self as she recovers from being a catfish at the beginning of the book. What she does not know is that the same person she was talking to was not cat fishing, just holding a few truths from her; and they are closer to her ever aka her neighbor aka Nick.
Nick cannot believe his luck when he runs into Lily, who is the same Lily that he was talking to a few months ago. He may think it’s the worst luck as ever, but life can be unexpected when it’s meant to be. Yes, he may have hidden a few truths from her, but once you read about his family and his childhood, then you will understand why he lied. I can’t imagine what he has gone through and achieved what he could. But what I do believe is his true love for Lily. He may struggle with it, but he always loved her from her first email and seeing her again. He was even willing to help her find someone else since he believed he was undeserving of her.
Lily deserves the whole world. I truly love her even when I get a bit frustrated with her at times. She truly does her best in believing in herself even though she is struggling in her work and personal life. At work, she may not feel appreciated as she should be, but it pushes her to find something more for herself. It may struggle at first, but things go her way when she reaches her breaking point. For her personal life, she may need to gain more confidence about being herself if she wants her person. It may not be what her sisters expect, but she will need to be the one to tell them off (which she will). And thankfully, she finds it with Nick.
I will warn you that their romance is a more slow burn than ever. They genuine form a true friendship even though they faced the truth in the middle. Keep that in mind as you read this book. I don’t want to disappoint you if you are expecting a steamy romance from the start.
