review 1: The King Next Door was such a good book. Great story. Great characters. Hot-steamy-sex scenes. Witty banters. A cute baby boy. Sexy Mama. Gorgeous Knight in Shining Board Shorts. Perfect!Griffin King was the twin brother of Garrett who owned a security agency. And when Rafe and Katie went off on a three-week trip to Europe he had volunteered to house-sit while rethinking his workaholic-commitment-free lifestyle and relax. But with Nicole next door relaxing was the last thing on his mind. He wants her. But he knew he can't do anything about it. Because aside from the fact that he's not about to cut off his own cookie supply by hitting on Nicole, he vowed not to get involve with single moms. His number one rule was no women with kids. Been there done that. He kept that vow. ... moreUntil now.Nicole Baxter was a single mom. She's not in the market looking for a man. Not after her divorced. She have her baby boy Connor now. She refuses to allow herself to depend on a man for anything. Until she met Griffin King. She wanted him. So she proposed a no-strings affair. But didn't count on falling in love. I really loved this book. The story seemed real. Very relatable for both men and women. There was scene where I really really want to kick Griffin in the ass for being such an insensitive jerk. (you have to read it to know what I'm talking about.) But I loved how great Griffin was with Connor. Is there anything hotter than a guy who is great with kids?
review 2: Very good book. Griffin is housesitting for his cousin while he is on vacation. His new cousin-in-law has also told him to leave her best friend Nicole alone. Griffin figures that would be no problem since he stays away from single mothers. The problem is that he is very attracted to her and after he causes a fire at her house she and her son move in with him. He manages to hold on to his control until she comes to him and asks for just one night with him. They aren't able to stop at one night and decide to continue until he has to go back to work. Griffin is surprised to discover just how much he is coming to care for both Nicole and her son. This is not welcome news as he was badly hurt by another single mom and he fears the same thing happening again. When he leaves first he finds that he can't escape the memories. Nicole has been on her own with her son for three years. She prides herself on her independence and refuses to allow herself to depend on a man for anything ever again. She is not happy to find Griffin insisting on helping and refusing to take no for an answer. Her attraction to him is strong and she decides that this is the perfect opportunity to grab something for herself. She figures to can enjoy a short fling with Griffin since she knows there is an end date. She doesn't expect to find herself liking him so much. When he also turns out to be the kind of man who is wonderful with her son she can't help falling in love with him. I loved the way she went to Griffin to propose the fling and the way it affected him. There were also some pretty funny parts in the book, such as the way the characters reacted to the threat of losing access to Katie's cookies. I also loved revisiting some of the other Kings and their reactions to Griffin's difficulties. less
