So this book is one of the better and more interesting installment to the fun and eccentric Neighbor from Hell series, and one I genuinely enjoyed very, very much.

First of all, I loved Daniel, because here is the first NFH character that has real, tough issues. With his army background, his problems with his dad and his injury, Danny is less of a cocky, carefree hottie (although he is that, no doubt), and more mature and tortured.

But bear in mind, all of the NFH books are romantic comedies that are meant to put a smile on your face and make you laugh out loud, so don't look for too tortured or too serious with this one, but it was enough of both to make Danny a compelling main character and set him apart from the rest of the Bradford crew.

Jodi, on the other hand, is our comic relief. This girl is hilarious... but unintentionally so. If there is something that can go wrong in her vicinity, it probably will, and pain killers are always a big no-no. When you absolutely have to give her one, make sure to lock her in a room with Danny. He can handle it.... sort of.

The comedy in this installment is mostly slapstick, but it's such over the top, eccentric fun that I didn't mind (I'm not usually a fan of slapstick).

I've said it before and I'll say it again; I recommend this series for whenever you're looking for a fun, funny book to pick you up and leave you smiling.

I love this series!!!

I'm pretty sure that every time I read a new installment from this series I declare that this one is definitely my favourite. The Bradford men are a crazy bunch of blokes obsessed with food. They also have a weird type of mating ritual...driving their future girlfriend's crazy.

This installment revolves around Danny and Jodi aka Tinkerbelle. Jodi had been in a relationship with a jerk who left her with huge debt and embarrassment, breaking up with her the day before their wedding. She is trying to get her life back on track. Danny is an ex marine recovering from some horrific injuries and a family hovering in case he needs them.

Danny's greatest pleasure is to drive Jodi crazy with pranks and jokes which eventually pushes her over the edge. She approaches her landlord Trevor Bradford to let her break her lease to get away from him. Trevor reduces her rent and begs her to stay.

Chapter 6 is one of the funniest things I have ever read. I had tears pouring out of my eyes I was laughing so hard. Jodi has a slight problem with medication, it sends her loopy. Danny gives her an antihistamine after she reacts to something and he must care and protect her (from herself) while the drugs are in her system. This is where the connection starts.

Lots of great family dynamics and laughs, plenty of steamy scenes and a few teary ones as well. Another great installment to one of my favourite series.
