BACK IN THE BURBS RELEASE BLITZ

 

Back in the Burbs by Avery Flynn & Tracy Wolff is now live!

Ever have one of those days where life just plain sucks? Welcome to my last three months--ever since I caught my can't-be-soon-enough ex-husband cheating with his paralegal. I'm thirty-five years old, and I've lost my NYC apartment, my job, my money, and frankly, my dignity.

But the final heartache in the suck sandwich of my life? My great-aunt Maggie died. The only family member who's ever gotten me.

Even after death, though, she's helping me get back up. She's willed me the keys to a house in the burbs, of all places, and dared me to grab life by the family jewels. Well, I've got the vise grips already in hand (my ex should take note) and I'm ready to fight for my life again.

Too bad that bravado only lasts as long as it takes to drive into Huckleberry Hills. And see the house.

There are forty-seven separate HOA violations, and I feel them all in my bones. Honestly, I'm surprised no one's "accidentally" torched the house yet. I want to, and I've only been standing in front of it for five minutes. But then my hot, grumpy neighbor tells me to mow the lawn first and I'm just...done. Done with men too sexy for their own good and done with anyone telling me what to do.

First rule of surviving the burbs? There is nothing that YouTube and a glass of wine can't conquer.

Liza's Review:

Tracy Wolff and Avery Flynn have teamed up to give readers a laugh out loud sexy contemporary romance that had me crying at times I was laughing so much. There were plenty of drama along the way to keep your emotions jumping as well.


I really loved Mallory pretty much from page one and have to say I also had some mad love for grumpy neighbor Nick just as quickly. Mallory is pretty much at her lowest low as Back in the Burbs begins. She recently caught her husband cheating on her, she lost her job in his law firm, and had to move back in with her parents. When she learns her Aunt Maggie left her home to her, Mallory has big goals, and isn't prepared when she arrives, as the home is in major need of repairs, clean out, and HOA violations seem to be never ending.

Mallory is starting over when she moves to Huckleberry Hills. She needs to find a job and then a contractor to help get her new home back in shape. As no one in her family had been in her aunt's home in years, she wasn't prepared to the hoarding her aunt had in her home. That part of the story pretty much broke my heart. Her parents were aware that Maggie had hoarding tendencies, yet hadn't checked on her at all. While Mallory had every right to be completely overwhelmed, I love that as she cleaned out her aunt's home, she had so many fond memories of her aunt as she cleaned out each new room.

Nick aka grumpy neighbor actually ended up being one of my favorite characters in this book. I loved that he was actually friends with Maggie and did all in his power to help her out and take care of her when she was his neighbor. I really loved that Nick and Mallory had some pretty great chemistry from the very first time they met, even if they didn't start off as friends. Part of that was Mallory having trust issues due to how her ex treated her. I really liked that Nick was there to help Mallory along the way with the house, finding her an attorney to battle her ex, and even finding her a perfect job. When Nick and Mallory finally made love for the first time, I had all the happy feels. Their differences and strengths made them such a great couple. My only real problem with this story was Malloy comparing Nick to her ex for way too long. Nick really did go out of his way to take things slow so Mallory would feel comfortable and help her in any way needed. As he was absolutely nothing like her ex, other than also being an attorney, Mallory really made me mad when she compared Nick to her asshat ex. 

Back in the Burbs kept me glued to the page pretty much from the moment I picked it up. I don't know about everyone else, but my reading has taken a huge hit since the start of the pandemic. The fact that I pretty much read this book in one day was huge for me, and a testament to this wonderful story. Thank you to both Tracy Wolff and Avery Flynn for giving me the wonderful rom-con in Back in the Burbs!
