Publisher's summary

ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES' BEST ROMANCES OF THE YEAR!

"Martin’s prose is a live wire: There are little shocks of pleasure on every page."—
New York Times

Two rival candidates for a homeowner’s association presidency are about to find out how dirty suburbanites fight in this steamy new romantic comedy from Alexa Martin.

After years of hustling, Collins Carter has finally made it...back to her parents’ house. Between tending to the compost with her newly retired dad and running into her high school nemesis at the only decent coffee shop in town, Collins realizes this subdivision from hell she swore she’d never return to is her rock bottom.

Then the homeowner’s association complaint arrived.

Nathaniel Adams always dreamed of a nice, quiet life in his suburban hometown. Or at least that’s what he thought until Collins moved back and sent his quaint, organized life into a tailspin. He thought Collins was infuriating ten years ago, but when she announces she’s running against him for HOA president, all bets are off.

From secret board meetings to vicious smear campaigns whispered over backyard fences, Collins and Nate sink to levels their sleepy suburb has never seen before. But as hate turns into lust, these two enemies are forced to reckon with the feelings they’ve ignored for years. If only there were bylaws for real life.

Who knew Kachhi's could be so sexy!

Absolutely loved Nate and Collins Story. They were so good together. I laughed so much this was such a darling story. I hope we get to see Ruby find love and her match!

Cute story!

I really enjoyed this book! I loved all the side characters and the part they played in the story. Collins and Nate are so cute! I prefer a dual POV so I was bummed to not get Nate’s thoughts but overall a feel good story!

Great characters! Steamy!

The character development is so good that I felt like I knew them like my own people. The dynamics between the characters are terrific and the layers of their personalities are relatable. The descriptions are vivid but just right. The romance is steamy but not cheesy or cheap. You don't get bogged down with too much fluff you go on the journey with the writer. Easy read but flows nicely with depth and great narrative!
