Lauren Blakely is one of my most favorite authors, so I am always excited to see when she has a new series and a new group of friends to introduce us to. The Virgin Next Door was simply fantastic- the premise was so unique and main characters Veronica and Milo were people I'd love to hang out with! Fun and witty and both animal lovers- their chemistry was so apparent and together they were a delight. This book was flirty and steamy and I couldn't put it down. So looking forward to the next book in the series.
So damned good. Didn’t want to put it down but the bath got cold. But that must have been my fastest dry, clothes, get ready for bed and get in bed with my book I’ve done

Veronica is working two jobs, a children’s book editor and a sex columnist. When one of her columns gets accidentally sent to her conservative author and the entire company, she finds herself sans job.
By luck, she ends up at Bikes and Bloom, a bike and flower shop as a temp and it might be a good place to lay low for a few months before venturing back into the publishing world.
There is one problem though. Veronica’s new boss Milo is hot, scorching hot and Veronica might’ve flirted with him earlier. Oh yeah and he’s the Mr Sexy Pants in her column. But the job is only for three months and surely that’s all it is. A crush.
Or is it?
I absolutely loved reading this! It was honestly one of my happiest reads this year and the heartwarming nature of it just swept me away.
This book is so sex positive and sex toy positive whirl keeping it nice and soft. Veronica, despite being a virgin, isn’t afraid of her own sexuality and just oozes confidence. I love seeing that in a woman. Milo is all about her pleasure and what she wants and we love to see it. He’s also open and supportive, never once doubting her skills anywhere. And he doesn’t mind toys in the bedroom, so he might be the perfect book boyfriend out there.
There is very little drama between the couple and the 3rd act breakup was one of the least dramatic out there. I understood why it happened and it didn’t feel too drama-filled or drawn out. And the getting back together was so sweet

this was cute and teddy hamilton and vanessa edwin were both great! i just wanted so much more steam from this. it was a tad disappointing with the title of the book.
cute but wouldn’t reread.

This was a funny rom-com with kind of a weird slow-burn, but it was worth it.
The plot and character foundation was the first part of the story, but it was so funny you didn't realize how long it took for the characters to meet.
But when they did, it was amazing.
And when they saw those sparks, even better.
Can't wait for more.
This book kept me in stitches from page one all the way to the end.

It was bad but omg was did I laugh. First off the mfc is just simply annoying and she has a dog names “hot stud”
coincidence!
Only in the biggest city do we get kismet that feels small town. I love the sex-positive Veronica Valentine. And Milo Sexy Pants is not too shabby! Their chemistry is fun, and the cute dogs are icing on the cake. The epilogues do a solid job of setting up what comes next- and I’m excited to add them to the queue!
