Alexia Blunt comes from a family deeply embedded in the rich world of the socially elite.
A strained relationship with her parents and a bad break up with an ex who also comes from high social standards, has Alexia deciding not to mingle with anyone associated with money anymore. But her perspective changes when she meets Hunter, who seems to fit the 'elite' mold but also seems to break it at the same time. Despite the promise she made to herself, curiosity gets the best of her and before she knows it, she's throwing caution in the wind.

Hunter McLaren has spent the sum of his working life in the family business, striving to make a comfortable life for himself early on. Because of this, there hasn't been much time for romance. Which has never been a problem for him. Until he meets Alexia. Not at all what he's come to expect from a woman with her background, she draws him in, and pretty soon he's feeling things he never thought he would. 

But when difficulties, old secrets, and hidden agendas surface, they both need to make a choice. Are they going to have faith in each other and what they have, or let it tear them apart? 
In a world where they're not supposed to be together, are they willing to fight for what they want, or will love take a back seat to society as it has so many times before?

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)
