Sunny Shelly’s Review: Overlooked, by Simone Sowood and Lulu Pratt

She’s the closest thing I ever had to a sister

Our parents are best friends and neighbors.
We were raised together.
But one look at her naked body in the window and I’m hard.
How did I never notice her this way before?
Too bad she’s forbidden fruit.
She doesn’t deserve to be in my trail of one and done women.
Plus it would ruin 25 years of friendship between our parents.
But my body craves her.
The longer she stands in the window, the less I’m able to resist.
Screw it.
Before I leave, I’ll give her a few good nights she’ll never forget.

 

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 3 Stars

If you are looking for a light and easy read, then don’t overlook Overlooked. I easily read this book in an afternoon. It doesn’t require deep thinking, has the right amount of smut, and a hilarious-but-not-really bathroom scene.

Zane and Harper have been friends forever, having grown up next door to one another. Their parents are still best friends. But they haven’t seen much of each other since graduating high school five years ago. She got a job in NYC working in publishing after college, and he’d enlisted in the Army. But when both come home for festivities surrounding Zane’s parent’s 25th anniversary, both feel a ping of feeling for the other, and by the end of the week, Zane and Harper must decide if they want to cross “that” line.

The story is predictable, and the characters are likable enough, but I just didn’t find anything *amazing* about Zane and Harper that completely hooked me. But it was a rainy summer afternoon, and this book was the perfect way to pass the time. I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.
