Covet thy Neighbor

 …leaping into the unknown can lead to all the dreams you never knew you had coming…

 The above statement is never shown more clearly than with Denise Carbo’s contemporary romance, Covet thy Neighbor, the latest in her Granite Cove series.

Single mother of ten year-old twin boys Olivia Banner doesn’t know she’s worth having dreams—because no one has ever told her she deserved them: not her rigid mother who is governed by archaic gender roles, nor her bitter, over-protective ex-mother-in-law; and certainly not her ex-husband, a textbook mama’s boy with a Peter Pan complex. Then she meets the  next-door neighbor, enigmatic writer Luke Hollister, and all of a sudden Olivia starts to question what she was never told, or shown, or given.  

And the fun begins.

       Covet thy Neighbor is chock full of varied characters from an intrepid, selfless heroine with a pack of witty, gutsy women pals at her back; and a man—who understands women and how they think—probably better than he thought he did—until he met the perfect one for him. This is one for the books. Brava, Ms. Carbo!

 On a scale of 1-5 Covet thy Neighbor deserves a 5.
