Not Betting on Forever by Natasha Moore

3.0

It had all of my favorite Tropes!
✔️ Single Mom
✔️ Hot next door neighbor
✔️ Forced Proximity
✔️ Forbidden Love
✔️ Small Town Romance
✔️ Age Gap

but even though it had all of this, it unfortunately, fell short.

Nick and Melanie's families have been friends since they were small. After several years, past marriages, & just overall life happening, they end up next door neighbors again, after purchasing their childhood homes. They both want the vacant lot between their homes for different reasons and their friendship starts to blossom over a serious of fun bets. Until the wager changes everything.


First off, I LOVED that both MCs were in their 40's. That peaked my interest right away. Their banter and chemistry was something I truly enjoyed. and the tension between the two (at times) was HOT!
