  Summary

  Jarome Sullivan wanted nothing more than to be a stay-at-home dad to his son and a house husband to his badass wife. He wanted to focus on taking CJ to Papa-and-Me Playtime and crafting increasingly elaborate dinners for Aisha to come home to. Instead, HOA nonsense and yet another email from the perpetually-complaining Mrs. Gable—this time about the intimidating 6'3" hockey player who just moved into 47 Trillium Lane—disrupt his hard-won, peaceful week.

  But dealing with the new neighbor leaves Jarome the keeper of a very, very big secret. Oy vey.

  Summary

  Willa is a curious kid by nature, and a parade of fast cars and the possibility of a Mafia-Boss-Russian-Spy living next door definitely doesn't do anything to curb her nosiness. When she finally meets the scary new neighbor, she finds that he's actually quite kind, and apparently enjoys sleepy snuggles in hammocks with the Jeep-driving man who visits pretty frequently (mob accomplice? Rival spy?)

  Being neighbors with Ilya Rozanov is rarely boring for anybody involved.

  Summary

  Patrick is a barista, but an unthinkable portion of his income comes from tips given to him by the hot MLH player who just moved to Ottawa. Yet, no matter how hard Patrick flirts or how big he writes his number on the coffee cups, Ilya Rozanov doesn’t call him.

  Patrick finally gives up when Ilya’s eyes go all soft and gooey upon mention of Jane.

  Whoever that is.
