SYNOPSIS:

He’s looking for peace, quiet, and a little romance…

There’s never a dull moment when hunky all-star pitcher and shapeshifter Jason Falco invests in an old Boston brownstone apartment building full of supernatural creatures. But when Merry MacKenzie moves into the ground floor apartment, the playboy pitcher decides he might just be done playing the field…
A girl just wants to have fun…

Sexy Jason seems like the perfect fling, but newly independent 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 and Merry and Jason will never get it together without a little help from the vampire who lives in the basement and the werewolf from upstairs…
MY THOUGHTS:
Strange Neighbors was a such a delight to read!  I was laughing throughout the book and loved each of the characters.  The writing was great and flowed nicely.  I almost hated to have to stop mid story to deal with real life because I was so engrossed in this fictional world of magic and fun. 
Merry decides to stand on her own feet and get a place of her own where she meets sexy owner Jason.  The chemistry between the two is obvious and you quickly find yourself falling in love with them.  You will also find quirky neighbors as well in the story.  We have ghosts, vampires, phone sex operators and more that help round out the story and give it even more to enjoy.
The author did a wonderful job of creating plenty of characters balanced with the right amount of suspense and humor. A job well done and I can’t wait to read more from this author. 
MY RATING:

Outstanding Book That Will Stay On My Bookshelf

For Rereading! 5 STARS
