Cup of Sugar by Karla Doyle Review

4 Smooches!

Synopsis

Nia has one rule—don’t date neighbors. Simple, except the guy next door is single, handsome, and not inclined to close his blinds while naked. When her car dies, Conn takes “being neighborly” to a new level by offering a ride to her long-distance destination. Nia has resisted his looks and charm for months. Surely she can handle a few hours in his truck…

For months, Conn has blatantly put himself on display, hoping his pretty blonde neighbor would tire of secretly watching and come knock on his door for a cup of sugar-or more. No such luck—until an unusual opportunity arises. After a six-hour drive turns into a sweet-and-sexy weekend, Conn wants more than neighborly status with Nia. To get it, he must convince her to break the rule protecting her heart—by putting his on the line.

Review

Conn has always fancied his cute, sexy, innocent but very shy neighbour Nia and when the opportunity arises for him to spend hours with her in a car he jumps at the chance, so along with his adorable dog Zeus, him and Nia are forced to spend time together which in the end leads to a steamy night in a motel along with Conn meeting the family. The question is can Conn convince his shy neighbour (who has a rule about not dating men who live close to her) that they deserve more than just one night together? And will Nia let down her walls a little and let Conn into her heart?

“One word and I’ll give you anything you want, everything you need.”

This was a fun, flirty, easy, light read. If your just looking for a nice and easy romance to make you smile on a rainy day then this is the perfect story for. If you are looking for something with a bit more substance or that has some action/drama or suspense to it then this isn’t the one.

“I’m discovering I like you every way.”

I actually loved both Conn and Nia. I think they were perfect for this story.
Nia was adorable, she was shy but funny and I thought it was sweet when she would “squeak.” I think some readers may find her purity a bit annoying but I honestly loved it and she was someone who was so easy to like and relate to.
Conn was just the perfect male really. Good looking, kind, sweet, funny and just an all round nice guy. You really couldn’t dream up a better guy and you really couldn’t imagine a more perfect match for Nia. It also helped that he had the cutest dog in Zeus.

“Tonight she was Conn’s sweetheart. His lover. Somebody he refused to let get away.”

The plot line was good if you are looking for an easy romance. It was light-hearted and made me smile. It was funny, sweet, warm with a bit of sexy thrown in and it left me feeling happy on a rainy day.

“Be my girl, not the girl next door.”
