The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney

✅ 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) • Love Triangle (April 2025) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

The Bad Boy Neighbor by Brookethebooknerd

Brooke is a girl with insecurities like any other girl, only her insecurities are about other things than what people think. Their about how she acts and how she is going to finally make her parents proud of her. She first did this when she was very young and her family started to doubt her saying "she is going to be a reckless teenager" "Here we go again another teenager, she might as well just drop out of high school" "We better start saving for when the baby comes" and other things like that. So she built her walls up and started being a different person that who she truly was. Later on she finds herself loosing it. Tired of concealing her feelings. So she starts to let people break down her walls. Who will? She has no idea. Soon she finds herself loving the school bad boy and has no idea on how to handle it. Little does she know that he feels the same way. And it all started when he moved next door.

Wonderwall by paperandpen444

Brooke is a different girl. She was raised in and out of foster homes. Most children raised in and out of foster homes end up working at low-life places their whole life, but Brooke refused to let her situation and how much she hated her life dictate her future and how she could, and would, one day be happy. She worked as hard as should could to keep her perfect grades, and when the time came to apply to colleges, she had so many scholarships that she had everything paid for, even her textbooks. She got into Stanford, and fought hard to get on the Baseball team. Everyone was against it. Girls should be on Softball. So when she goes to tryout for the Yankees, the whole team is against it. Until she hits the ball into the stands. Her essence attracts the guys to her, but they hate the thought of a girl on their team. Eventually, a wonderful guy will enter her life, addicted to her essence and her will and how mesmerizing she is. Will Brooke be able to accept that somebody could actually like her for something other than her looks?

She's a successful interior designer with great clients and everything she's ever wanted. But when she's called back home to help plan her grandmother's 70th birthday party, she's partnered up with Matthew Hunt - once the love of her life.
