Fiction. Literature. Romance. Sixteen years ago, a teenaged Will Sterling saw-or rather, heard-the girl of his dreams. Standing beneath an apartment building balcony, he shared a perfect moment with a lovely, warm-voiced stranger. It's a memory that's never faded, though he's put so much of his past behind him. Now an unexpected inheritance has brought Will back to that same address, where he plans to offload his new property and get back to his regular life as an overworked doctor. Instead, he encounters a woman, two balconies above, who's uncannily familiar . . . No matter how surprised Nora Clarke is by her reaction to handsome, curious Will, or the whispered pre-dawn conversations they share, she won't let his plans ruin her quirky, close-knit building. Bound by her loyalty to her adored grandmother, she sets out to foil his efforts with a little light sabotage. But beneath the surface of their feud is an undeniable connection. A balcony, a star-crossed couple, a fateful meeting-maybe it's the kind of story that can't work out in the end. Or maybe, it's the perfect second chance . . . Contains mature themes.… (meer)

Yawn

Good bones, a few nice scenes, but mostly a bore. I’m not a big fan when books are all about a lightening strike of love and don’t really build up why / how people fall in love. I think the author did a slightly better job with the male friendship in the book than the romance but even that had a lot of unexplained leaps.

They also make a lot of references to the feud between the main characters but that’s hardly even a think except that the author tells you that it happened. It’s a blip. ( )

I absolutely adored our leads and their journey both individually and as a unit (LOL). Nora and Will are just how I like my leads to be aka not awful people! This story is about 2 people with differing opinions about a major issue and how they learn to navigate and find a compromise that works. It was done really charmingly and left me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. The secondary characters were charming and full of life, and I will miss them all. I also vastly appreciate that there was no redemption of the truly awful (thankfully few) characters that cropped up.

A charming book which I enjoyed it immensely.

Thanks to Kensington Books and NetGalley for the ARC ( )

I read this book because I was looking for another Kate Clayborn book. I also presumed this book came before Love Lettering, but now I think they might be standalones that just have similar covers?

The general premise that these two people who just get a glance of each other at a young age are somehow destined for each other I didn't love. It was interesting when they reflected on how things would have gone differently if they had actually met and interacted at that young age though. ( )

The community is what really makes this book shine. ( )

I really like the colorful cover. It’s fun and whimsy just like the story. Nora is a fun loving quirky woman living on the third floor of an apartment building. She meets Dr Will Sterling at the “Golden Hour” of 4am on the balcony one morning after the death of building owner, Donny. Nora has yet to learn that Will has inherited the old building from his Uncle Donny and she is still grieving the loss of her “Nonna” in whose apartment she now lives. He is desperate to off load the old building but he isn’t prepared to meet resistance from the long term apartment owners. Since he needs to wait a year before he can sell, Will enlists the help of his boss’s ex-wife to renovate and list his unit for short term rentals. Nora launches a campaign to change Will’s mind with the help of the other tenants. They hope that he might change his mind once he gets to know the people who knew his uncle and love the old apartment building.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from BookishFirst in exchange for an unbiased review. ( )
