The only thing they have in common is a
property line! Cam Maguire is in Blackberry Bay to unravel a family secret.
Meredith Price has moved next door with her daughter. He’s unattached. She’s a
widowed single mom. He’s owned by a cat. She’s definitely team canine. All
these neighbors have in common is a property line. One they cross…over and
over. And Cam thought he knew what he wanted—until his family’s secret changes
everything.
More Than Neighbors was a cute quick romance. Two years after being widowed, Meredith has moved back to her home town with her 6 year old daughter Sophie. Cam is their "annoying" next door neighbor for the summer. He is in town to take care of his biological grandmother's estate. I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the characters, Elinor the cat.. Meredith and Cam fit well together. They were a couple that you want to root for. I also appreciated that Sophie sounded like a 6 year old little girl. As much as I enjoyed the romance between Meredith and Cam, I enjoyed another aspect of the book a bit more. I loved watching Cam learn about the grandmother and father that he never met through reading Carolina's journals. We get a glimpse of some of those entries and I thought it really enhanced the story. I definitely recommend this one.
Enjoy this Q&A with author, Shannon Stacey:
What was the romance novel that got you
hooked on the genre (or: What was the romance novel that
inspired you to become a romance author?)
I don’t really remember a time I didn’t love romance novels,
but Plain-Jane Princess by Karen Templeton (a Silhouette Intimate
Moments from 2001) is the romance novel that renewed my determination to become
a published romance author. Not only does it remain one of my all-time favorite
reads, but getting to know the author online taught me that it was possible to
juggle kids and a home and writing and inspired me to keep trying.
Please share in your own words what it means to
experience That Harlequin Feeling
No matter what I’m in the mood for—from a small town single
mom to a billionaire business mogul—I know I can reach for a Harlequin romance
and read an emotional, positive story that will give me the happily ever after
ending I love so much.
What was the name of your first published novel, and tell
us a bit about that experience?
There was a lot of variety in my publishing journey before I
settled on contemporary romance, but selling Exclusively Yours to Carina
Press and seeing the Harlequin name across the top of my contract was a dream
come true. More Than Neighbors is my 29th title under the
Harlequin umbrella and ten years later, it’s no less of a thrill. And being
published by Harlequin Special Edition was another longtime dream come true, so
I took myself out to lunch to celebrate (I had the most amazing grilled cheese
and bacon sandwich I’ve ever had).
