**This was an ARC copy given by the author for a honest review**3.5-4 startsThis was a pretty good story. I liked both Chase and Tess and enjoyed their story. It's the first story I've read by the author and I liked it enough I'd try more of her work in the future.Tess is a nice woman that hasn't had much luck in love. She's a widow and he late husband and her definitely didn't have a good relationship. This has left her with confidence problems. She's lived in her current apartment for 2 years and her downstairs neighbor and landlord is a younger man named Chase. They're friends and although Tess is attracted to Chase, she does hr best to keep it at friends because she can't see herself as attractive enough to catch Chase's eye for real.Chase is a good guy. He's been head over heals for Tess for years but never wanted to push her since he values their friendship. However, eventually he's ready to approach her...just hoping she cares about him the way he does about her.When Chase eventually broaches the subject of them being together Tess doesn't take it well as she fears messing up their friendship (which she's come to rely on). Chase and Tess have a lot to deal with as Chase tries to convince Tess to give him a chance and misunderstandings don't help things along. Chase is very sweet as he does his best to convince Tess he loves her. In the end things work out for a good HEA.Overall, this was a pretty good story. While I'll admit there were a few minor things that seemed to be missing (i.e I know Tess is older than Chase but I never saw their ages in the story) I thought the story got better as I read and I enjoyed it. I hope there is a book for their friends Roxi and Gage coming up next. :D
