Now here they are, ten years later, with Cole still stubbornly in the role of protector.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The sexual tension between Gemma & Cole, was hot enough to have my Kindle smokin! When they finally do get together it's inferno hot!! I'd give it a 10 out of 10 on my Steamy Scale ;-) Although Gemma's been in love with Cole since she was 17, she didn't think he felt the same because he turned down her advance at that time. Cole has always cared for Gemma but thought he wasn't good enough for her because of his upbringing & she's his best friend Brandon sister.
Fast forward to years later Brandon has died in combat, and his dying wish to Cole is to always protect Gemma. Cole takes his promise to Brandon seriously. When he's no longer able to deny his feelings for Gemma, suffers double with Survivor's Guilt and feelings of betrayal to Brandon. It's now up to Gemma to show Cole that they belong together & that Brandon would be happy for them. If there is anything negative to say about His Obsession Next Door, would be that I wish there was an epilogue at the end of the story. One showing where Gemma & Cole with their dogs Charlie & Stallone a few months later. Or about their wedding, giving the book a perfect HEA ending.
I'm looking forward to reading other books from the In the Line of Duty series! I recommend His Obsession Next Door to lovers of romance, this is the book for you!
I was given a copy of this book by the author in return for an honest review.
