An awkward and almost embarrassing emergency sends Rhiannon to the ER, where she meets her future, Luke. The only problem? He’s her doctor. These two have a hard road ahead, what with the longish distance thing and the hectic lives they both lead. This was by far my favorite story of the Neighborhood series so far because Rhiannon struggled with what she wanted versus her obligation to a selfish, angry person who refuses to change (no, not Luke). And Luke? Well, let’s just say he’s willing to work to make what could be his future all that it should be. Any guy who puts in the effort he did deserves an HEA with Rhiannon!

This is a sweet, humorous, steamy and fun story that captivated me from the very beginning. The protagonists are both well developed and the interaction between them is mesmerizing.

Dr Luke & Rhiannon were a hit from the start! An accident in the storeroom sends her to the ER where our first encounter occurs! A steamy short read with a beautiful HEA! A few bumps in the road as Rhiannon also cares for her alcoholic mother- and can be headstrong! Highly recommend!

Rhiannon has an episode in the storeroom at the Neighborhood Bar. It could be a heart attack. Sure she is only 28 years old. She is air flighted to the hospital. She meets Dr. McHottie aka Dr Luke. They try to fight the feelings as they are dr n patient.
Rhiannon is stuck taking care of her drunk mother on top of trying to date Luke. Things come to a head when her mother has a drunken fight with the neighbor. Luke witnesses the crazy.
This story shows if you love it will work out.
She is a vixen in her sex den.
Another great short in this series.

Rhiannon (Rhi) is sick and air-flighted to Hollybrooke, the nearest hospital 40 minutes away. She is treated by Dr. Luke Mattis. Their instant attraction is mutual, and despite attempts to ignore due to ethics, Rhi's innocent flirting pushes Luke over the edge of reason. Yeah, they live 40 minutes away from each other, and have to do a weekend romance. That can work, right? But when Rhi's life catches up with them, can she keep all the balls in the air, or does Luke's ball get dropped? How does he handle her juggling act?
This is the 3rd book in the Neighborhood series, but can be read as a stand-alone.

I’m moving to this neighborhood!
This series has me wanting to move, work at the bar and befriend all the characters.
The Vixen gives us all the mental dreamy look in the eyes when the HOT doctor walks in. Their chemistry is second to none. When you find a doctor who makes house calls make sure to lock the door behind him so he can’t leave

This is a short story as are most of the neighborhood story. So we have our supposed vixen which was not very vixenish. She was just a girl who was trying to do good by her mother who truly did not really deserve her, who was known as the town drunk. Luckily for her when she gets a little sick she meets a hot doc who is instantly captivated with her and decides he wants more from her and decides he is gonna get it, good for her she deserves it.

I was given an advance readers copy of this book and have decided to write a voluntary honest review. So I've been reading this series a bit backwards but I'm loving it all the same. Luke is one very hot doctor, he's beyond sexy and straight forward. You can't help but want more than a peice of him. And rhi I freaken love her so much she's also very blunt and sweet. Her and missy are my favorite. And as for boys it's miles, Wyatt and luke!!

So stoked to bring this hot doctor into my small town of Mercy!

Rhiannon feels like she's having a heart attack. Good news - she's not. Better news - she's seeing Dr. McHottie for a followup appointment in two weeks. And he likes her! I love this book - it builds on the previous stories of Miles and Noah in the small town of Mercy. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

Hot damn Tarrah Anders has done it again!!! People - if you need a story that has heart, feelings and very steamy sexy times than look no further and come on down to the The Neighborhood.



I've been loving this series since book one (If you haven't read Noah & Valerie's story, seriously what are you waiting for???? Go grab it now!) where we were introduced to this amazing family dynamic of The Neighborhood. Let's face it, once we "grow up" we spend more time with our coworkers than we ever do with our friends and family in any given day so having that family dynamic is when you know you're working somewhere great. I've had that - and I loved it! I miss it now that I've moved to a new job - and I really think that is what has made me fall in love with these quick bites into that world.

Noah & Valerie and the start of it all - Your Neighborhood Bartender



Miles & Missy and the guy who's stolen my heart - Your Neighborhood Bastard



And then we come to Your Neighborhood Vixen with Rhiannon & Luke. Holy moly I had no idea what to expect here, and I was not disappointed with what I found!

Rhiannon is having a bad day. After being rushed to the ER with some crazy pains when she breathes, Rhiannon is faced with Doctor Hottie - I mean, Dr. Luke Mattias. Man, he tried to play it cool and professional but both of them were struck with an instant attraction that could only be delayed, not denied and my how those sparks caught fire!



This is a quick read, with a lot of heart and some very steamy scenes - seriously, how do you do it? I'd be terrified that every sex scene would look the same or feel formulaic after this many books but they don't! They steam up the pages when they - finally - get their acts together and get together!!!



And, yes, even a bite sized book leaves me with some…

Favourite Lines -

"Fuck what the rules say. Sometimes rules are meant to be broken."




"So back to your hot doctor serial killer."

"Dude! He's totally not a serial killer."




"You sleeping on my couch drove me crazy," I return.

"It was the only way that I could properly respect you."

"I wanted to be fucked , not respected. But thank you for wanting to."




"What's a Big Guy? Is that some strange code for a pounding? Am I getting my ass kicked?"







One click this baby today - you will love Rhiannon and Luke, I can promise you that!



And then you can wait with me for the next trip to the The Neighborhood...

I am loving these speedy stories set in the town of Mercy! They each showcase a couple and in this case, it's Rhi and Doc Luke. He's a complete sweety and Rhi deserves all the happiness she can get. Some family drama really had me shaking my head but thing comes together in a fab HEA. Expect interesting characters, strong sense of family responsibility, sizzling chemistry and all the feels that go with a steamy romance. It's a fun read and I can't wait to dive into the next one.

Rhiannon meets Dr Luke when she’s flown to hospital after suffering chest pains. They soon become attracted to each other and start a relationship when he discharges her. A short story but a sweet one.

Rhi and Luke's book was really good. It was sweet and romantic but also very comical to me. Meeting in a hospital out of town is a chance encounter. Living in 2different towns puts a bit of a wrench in this relationship but Luke is willing to do whatever it takes to make it work.

I love this series by Tarrah Anders! Diving into the small town of Mercy again and again with these quick lighthearted reads. Rhiannon is the newest addition so far and I loved it. Start to finish(one sitting might I add) I was sucked in. The story might be quick but that doesn’t stop Tarrah from packing it with emotion, love, chemistry, laughs, angst and her signature level of steaminess.

I’m a sucker for a good guy in a romance novel and Luke aka Dr. McHottie fits that bill! A gentleman from the start and I fell for it, trust me you will too! Your Neighborhood Vixen is a great middle book to read if you’re between novels, can’t decided what to read, or are suffering the dreaded book hangover. With the quick pace you’ll be rewarded with a sweet love story fast and be left completely satisfied!

Rhiannon meets Luke when she gets a med flight to the hospital after having some kind of attack in the storeroom of the bar. They have a strong connection and start dating. Luke is sweet and caring. Rhiannon is strong, smart and independent while taking care of her mother. I love their story! A perfect addition to this series.

One medivac ride later and you end up being treated by Dr. McHottie

I just love The Neighborhood series by Tarrah Anders. Each book is so much fun with interesting characters, intriguing story lines that just out there far enough to be really fun but not to far over the edge to go into the realm of make believe, witty and sharp dialogue, both between and in the minds of characters, and more than enough sizzling, dirty smuttiness to start the Kindle smoking.

Your Neighborhood Vixen is the story of Rhiannon and Luke. She works as a server at Noah's "Neighborhood Bar"and one day is found by Noah's brother lying on the floor of the back storeroom appearing to have a heart attack. The medivac her out to the closest hospital in the city with Noah and Miles rushing to drive there.

Luke is the hospital ED's "Dr. McHottie" and looks after Rhi. He goes above and beyond in his care of Rhi and asks some very interesting questions. They rule out a heart attack but he thinks it is a few other things that can be resolved by a few changes to her diet and some antacids. A couple of weeks later Rhi has her follow-up appointment with Dr. McHottie and they get more than a little flirty between them. One thing tends to lead to another and before you know it these two are playing doctor all over her house back in Mercy the following week. But Rhi has a harder life than most in that there are some shameful secrets she keeps hidden and she also takes care of her alcoholic mother, who is completely non-functioning.

But can Rhiannon and Luke make a semi long distance relationship work and for just how long? Is it better to stop it now before she gets to involved and heartbroken or wait until later and enjoy herself now? Who will have to compromise and eventually have to move? There are so many questions Rhi has that she does not know what to do but she does now that Luke really loves her.

This is the third book in The Neighbourhood series. This book is about Rhiannon, she works as a server at Mercy's pub, The Neighborhood. Rhiannon finds herself on the floor of the store room at the pub one day in severe pain. She believes she is too young for a heart attack at the age of twenty-eight but one never knows. Miles and Noah find Rhiannon in the store room, medics are called and she is air lifted to the nearest hospital which is 40 minutes away. Rhiannon is poked and prodded to determine that her diet needs work, less caffeine and her stress levels need to come down, how to cut ties with her Mom the town drunk. Dr. Mathias walks in to Rhiannon's room to figure out what is causing her pain but finds himself instantly attracted to her. Can these two make a long distance go of things? Will one relocate to make it work? This was a great quick read with the feeling if a complete story when you are done. Each book is a standalone but I highly recommend the series and getting to know more of the employees at The Neighbourhood.

The little town of Mercy and its Neighborhood Bar doesn't lack for drama!

In the latest installment, The Neighborhood Vixon, we meet Rhi who's suffering from what we think is a heart attack. Being taken to the closest hospital, she can't help but notice to the cute doctor and there's no denying the sparks between those two. The one thing I've really enjoyed about these neighborhood installments is how realistic Anders has made them. Two unlikely people from two totally different backgrounds are faced with a decision about a long-distance relationship.

Anders puts a lot into these mini-stories but they don't lack for steam or drama and that's what I love. They're short to get you hooked on them, then leave you with a satisfied smile when you're done. Except you're anxious for more. I really enjoy Anders's writing and she's kept my full attention since the very fist story I've read of hers!

Vixen for the win because who doesn't enjoy a hot doctor!!

I am so happy that I’ve had the privilege of reading the “Your Neighborhood” series of short stories. I started reading these a bit out of order but decided to back up and read them in order because the story is more cohesive and enjoyable this way. One of the bars servers Rhi ends up in the ER and meets Dr. Luke McHottie and it’s love at first sight for both of them. What I love in particular about this series is how seamless each of the characters move from book to book. This can be difficult to do and Ms Anders achieves this flawlessly it’s worth going back and reading them in order. There’s comedy, romance, twists of drama, and a few sexy shake ups along the way. Having read 3 books with 7 more to go I am anxiously waiting to read the next installment

He calls her his sexy vixen, she calls him Dr. McDreamy. She was having chest pains and he was her doctor. They live about 40 minutes away. They have an instant attraction but is it possible to build a relationship long distance?

This is a short, very hot, contemporary romance between a doctor and a waitress. The characters are well developed and personable making you wish from the beginning that they will get together. The writing is well done. They both have issues to overcome in order to build a life together. The sex scenes were amazing. It was great to see how things progressed. I have been enjoying this series and think this is the best book so far. If you enjoy hot romances you can read in an evening and leave you feeling positive, then check out this series.
