I love a good grumpy sunshine/enemies to lovers trope. I didn't know this was a book 2 in a connected series of standalones. Grace inherits her grandfathers home which happens to be next door to Noah's who is a real estate titan. One comes from money the other comes from nothing. Grace is fierce and feisty and I love that in a heroine, she doesn't need a man to help her. I love the that the characters were drawn out and that there was humor involved. Another great spring/summer romance.

Thank you to Netgalley, St. Martin's Press and the Author for providing a readers copy for review.

I, unfortunately, wasn’t a fan of this book. I don’t think I got more than a couple chapters in before I DNF’d it. It’s not that the book was bad, it’s just that the way the book was written… I wasn’t a fan of it. And I was incredibly bored. It just didn’t do anything for me unfortunately.

First, I was very excited to revisit the Jansen family. I loved Ten Rules for Faking It and was hoping this would be another hit for me. In many ways it was. I liked the enemies-to-lovers relationship with Grace and Noah. Unfortunately I liked them better, and was more entertained when they were fighting. The constant competitions between them, while fun at times, became repetitive. Noah is not as endearing as his brother Chris.

What does shine is Sullivan’s writing style. It is easy to enjoy and is written like a dialogue with friends. The complicated parental relationships are realistically written. I am excited to continue this series.

Noah and Grace are both trying to reach their goals in life. They both have their own life challenges and do they have the time to fit in their friendship/ potential love relationship. This is them navigating and trying to come together.
This had potential but it was typical and surface level. I need some real life stuff and this just couldn't deliver

How to Love Your Neighbor was exactly what I expected from a cute romcom. I enjoyed the 'reality TV' aspects and the challenges that Noah and Grace shared and the process getting them to their HEA. While good, I'm not invested enough in the characters or the side characters to feel the need to pick up the other books in the story.

I didn't know this was a second book when I got it, but you don't really miss out on anything. Chris and Everly from the first book are in this one a few times, so I may check out the 1st book if I come across it. This book was a light read with very little angst. Honestly, not much to it, but sometimes you just want a breezy read.

This was cute and I liked Grace's voice, but I just could not buy into their attraction with one another. I did enjoy the HGTV home renovation vibes so I am disappointed that I didn't like the couple enough.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the eArc in exchange for my honest review.

How to Love Your Neighbor by Sophie Sullivan is a new to me author and someone I will read in the future.

A humorous, heart warming, enemies to lovers romance, HGTV possibilities, family issues and so much more..

This was such a cute romance! Girl next door with an annoying neighbor, who is, of course, super attractive. Oh, and he's a jerk! Or is he? The book might be a little too sticky sweet for some, but overall it was very enjoyable.

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book! The title and this beautiful cover drew me in and i was excited to read this book! I will be recommending this book to others for readers advisory.

I did not read How to Love Your Neighbor through an educator lens.

How to Love Your Neighbor by Sophie Sullivan was one of those hate to love romance novels for me. It was a little slow moving, but pulled me in right away with loveable characters and plenty of humor and cheesy parts.

This was such a cute book! This was the first book I've read from this author and I really enjoyed it. The story was different from anything I've read recently and really captured my attention. It was so well written and the characters were fantastic.

This was such a cute book! I absolutely loved it! The story moved along well without any big gaps or slow moving sections. I really liked the characters, I thought they were well fleshed out and were believable as a couple.

From the beginning, this one felt a little too immature/petty for me. I ADORE the cover & was so excited to read but the fighting just felt so immature.

Girl wannabe interior designer/house owner meets boy real estate agent dead set on building a monstrosity next to her tiny beach front cottage. What else are they to do but start an all out war?

A quirky romance that is tamer than I’m used to. But nothing wrong with that since it was entertaining.

Grace and Noah meet unexpectedly and there are sparks but they fizzle when they end up living next to each other. He wants her property and she won’t give it up. Sounds like a great start. Lol.

Hilarity ensues and obstacles are hurdled. Love their chemistry and how Noah was the one less panicky about their future.

First time reading a book by this author but it won’t be my last.

* I received this book as an ARC for an honest review.

How to Love Your Neighbor is the second novel by Sophie Sullivan in her Jansen Brothers series, though its able to be read on its own.

For whatever reason, I am a fan of a home reno rom-com. Maybe I can attribute it to the golden age of TLC and HGTV? This led me to have a predisposition to enjoy this enemies-to-lovers story of sunshiney Grace and surly Noah.

Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for sharing this book with me. All thoughts are my own.

Unfortunately i couldn't finish this book, i tried and although it had cute moments i just couldn't connect with the main characters.

This is the second book in the Jansen bothers series, and it’s safe to say I loved it just as much as the first! This book has two of the best things: romance and home improvements! If you’re a fan of enemies to lovers, HGTV, and forced proximity, you will love this one!

The blurb made it sound so promising but it was the opposite of that. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope but here the execution is poor. Noah was very rude with his comments and actions at first and even though I kept reading I couldn't see anything that was promising about him. I liked Grace but I just couldn't feel the chemistry between her and Noah! Also, why didn't anybody tell me that this was a closed door romance? I was so disappointed. I liked the first book in the series but this one was just meh.
