“Here's what I do know, Naomi. We’ve got something here. You want to bring your baggage on in, fine, we’ll deal with it. Because it’s time for you to start admitting that we could be damn good together if you just give it a chance.”

Passion on Park Avenue is the perfect start to this new series. Naomi and Oliver have low key hate to lovers relationship that is really real and sweet with lots of self-growth & forgiveness.
I loved especially friendship between girls and I can't wait for Claire & Audrey book.

"We really are just friends. When I was in first grade, a mean third-grade girl stole the locket my grandma had given me for my birthday. He made her give it back, then played hopscotch with me until I stopped crying.”
I want now Audrey & Clarke book.

Passion on Park Avenue is First Wives Club meets Sex and the City. Naomi is a feisty redhead whose past makes her more determined to prove her worth to the Manhattan elite. As the founder of a billion-dollar company, she should have everything figured out. When fate lands her an apartment next door to her childhood tormentor and his womanizing father, she seeks the opportunity for revenge. One problem, these are not the same people who tore her childhood apart those years ago. Oliver is nice, grownup, and incredibly handsome and his father is diagnosed with Alzheimer's and not always the man he once was. The heat between Naomi and Oliver is intense, but Naomi does not know if she can put the past behind her.

This book was a quick read for me because it was so darn lovable. Naomi is easy to relate to and her friends Claire and Audrey are supportive, likable, and truly want to see her happy. The sexual tension between Naomi and Oliver made the book a page turner and I could not wait to see what happened next. Passion on Park Avenue is a modern Cinderella story, except Naomi does not need Oliver to be her Prince, just her equal.

How can you not like a book that references Anne of Green Gables?
