Neighbors: A Steamy Collection
Two novella-length erotic romances await in this smoking hot collection! Featuring HEAs and a lot of the good stuff, these stories aim to be enjoyed by both men and women alike. Here's what you'll find inside. The Woman Next Hot off his freshman year of college and having just gone through a painful breakup, Finn returns home to watch over his parents' house for the summer. Carmilla, his beautiful, kind neighbor, is there to help him pick up the pieces and move on. No longer a boy, Finn captivates Carmilla's lusty imaginations, and the two realize maybe they want to be something more than just friends. Coming Once a famous Hollywood actor, Elias has taken a pummeling from his ex-wife in the eyes of the media and the general public. His shame has brought him back to his old hometown, where he's taken up residence in a creaky old mansion to lick his wounds and hide away from the world. His neighbor, the beautiful, hard-on-her-luck Ava, is trying to raise a daughter as best she can while holding down a job at a local diner. Ava's barely been able to tread water the last few years, and with bills stacking up, she may have to ask her sister to raise her child, something Ava is desperately trying to avoid. Making things worse, her new neighbor is allegedly a despicable man, and Ava dislikes him on sight. But Elias isn't what he seems, and as a slow, easy friendship develops between Ava's daughter and the failed actor, Ava comes to realize maybe the world has it wrong about him. A slow burn of a romance, Coming Home is a steamy sweet tale of love and redemption.

What a great pair of novellas!
I guess I’ve been a “hard grader” in my previous reviews, as I can’t remember giving a 5 star rating before. However, I’m more realistic now and these two stories were great and absolutely deserve the Top Rating. Both stories made me want to keep reading. The first got my attention (I’m a guy) with a gorgeous redhead and the young man who has admired her for a long time. Great story about how they come to grips with what seems to be something they they couldn’t have. But they do come together in a great love for one another. The second story, about a man whose movie career seems to be over discovering that his efforts to change for the better brings him to the place he thought he’d never have. It’s a really great story about redemption and finding loving support, while he encourages the new woman in his life, and she encourages him as well. I really don’t want to go long and spoil the stories for those who want to take the plunge by getting this pairing. Graphic depictions of love, yes, and it definitely is love that grows stronger. Love in the full emotional sense as well as the physical, these couples express their feelings and love for one another. I hope everyone could have such a strong connection with their mate. I know I really cared that these people would have a great conclusion to their stories, and I was cheering these fictional characters on! This shows how well written these stories are. I’ve written some non-fiction, and I really admire great fiction, something that seems beyond my capabilities. My highest recommendations for this pairing. I have no doubt reading these novellas will be, perhaps, the best you’ve ever read. I’ll be into more of this author’s works. Soon.

Fantastic, with just the right amount of steaminess
I don’t even know where to begin. I laughed with the characters, I cried with them and through it all I thoroughly enjoyed the steamy scenes. I don’t want to give it all away but I will say this was a wonderful duet. The first story with Finn and Camilla was an older woman younger man romance with lots of hot sex scenes. And enjoyed the plot. But Elias and Ava’s story really got to me. I appreciated the character development and the way they simply adored each other despite so much adversity. And the sex was amazing. I definitely wept at the happy ending and I could totally see this one becoming a sweet hallmark movie. I absolutely loved it. Ian snow is a fantastic writer, and I cannot wait to read more of his work. Read this book I promise you won’t regret it!

Steamy and not the usual plots. I enjoyed these two novellas. If you want clean, don’t read these.
The first story is a younger man older woman story, the second is a down on her luck widow with a young daughter and an actor who lost his career in the mudslinging of a nasty divorce. I found the characters and stories interesting enough to keep turning the pages, and the sex scenes were hot but not weird—no BDSM or anything like that. Overall, I enjoyed them and will try some more from this author.

Hot Stuff!
Wow! These were some really hot reads! I love how they just slightly overlapped. I think it was awesome that I’m the first story, Finn’s mom was totally fine with him and Carmella being together. I also loved how Ava quickly realized that all was not what it seemed with Elias.

Way beyond what I expected!
For the type of stories presented, there was a wonderful plot to the stories along with the lust that was there. It was put together in a way it brought tears of joy to my eyes.

Wild stories
These two stories are wild, not that they are bad, they aren't. A hint though, if you don't want to read about some hot sex don't read them.

Two wonderfull stories
This is certainly a steamy pair of stories, but also well-written romances with well-crafted characters. I loved the cameo appearance in the second story.

A very sweet read, especially the second piece, with lovely character development and cameo appearances in that second piece from characters in the first, as well as what I think is a mention of characters from the author's "Dads Project" novellas. Coincidentally, an alternate cover features the same two models as appear on the cover of my just-published Valley Winter Loop, which is what drew me to this author's work in the first place.
