GRR Reviews More than Neighbors by Isabel Keats

More Than Neighbors is a contemporary romance that tried to setup opposites attract scenario, but I honestly don't find the chemistry there, and the ending was a total trope.

When hard-working uptight and successful Leopold Sinclair returned from a long trip, he did not expect to find the captivating young, and free-spirited Catalina Stapleton had moved in next door. Catalina is always helping someone or something, and after a couple pointy conversations with Leopold, Catalina decided that Leopold needs to be saved... from himself. Leopold didn't need saving, as he's got more than a decade on Catalina, but she's just so tempting and he can't quite seem to control himself around her. Both tried to pretend they aren't attracted to each other, but how long can they keep it up?

This book is kinda insta-lust except neither chose to act upon it as they deny their attraction to each other. And the ending... was a very tired trope that really makes no sense. Neither characters really made sense. Leo was kinda creepy while Cat was a totally nosy busybody. I didn't like it much.
