One pair of splattered shoes. Two opposites. An irresistible attraction.

Devon Hastings is doing his best to stay afloat. Buried beneath medical bills and trying to take care of his sick father and younger brother, he has no time for relationships. Especially after the last one left him in tatters.

Alexa Mitchell has never been one for commitment. After all, who needs a boyfriend when you have a successful career and an underwear model as a booty call? 

Neither of them are ready for the feelings that spark between them. And, while Devon is cautious to lay his heart on the line, Alexa is prepared to leap straight in.

But, sometimes instant attraction is too hard to ignore and if Devon's not going to be the one to pursue it...

Well, Alexa will just have to do it herself.

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney
47 parts Complete Mature
✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly -- like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by -- and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just their new neighbor. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly -- like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea -- and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)
