Everything I Wanted — Evey Lyon

Keats is my enemy. And ending up in bed together presents an even bigger complication considering he's my next-door neighbor. It started with my neighbor being enemy number one. The cocky lawyer always seems to swagger my way with a disgruntled look and piercing eyes when my mail continues to get accidentally delivered to his house. Keats always makes me feisty and annoyed, too. Hence why we're both always in a showdown where I want to rip his shirt into shreds and maybe his pants, too. Why? Because the attraction is too overbearing and lingers in the air. And then we snap and give in. We start the unimaginable. We unintentionally start a neighbors-with-benefits kind of thing. But I begin to see a different side of Keats, and it turns out he isn't the kind of man I thought he was. The fact that he turns possessive or moves me right in due to a house complication tells me that he feels something, too. We're blindsided by our relationship developing, and neither one of us is sure where this will end. After all, we never planned on being everything I wanted... Banter, steam, and low on angst, Everything I Wanted is the first in the Everhope Road series, a spin-off from the Lake Spark world. It can be read as a standalone. Readers who love small-town, enemies-to-lovers, next-door-neighbor romances with no third-act breakup will fall for Keats and Esme!
