Will inherits his estranged uncle's apartment and plans to offload the property and get back to his life. Until he meets Nora, who lives two floors above and won't let him ruin her close-knit building.

This was such a sweet, slow burn romance. I liked the chemistry and tension between Nora and Will as they were obviously intrigued by one another but also on opposite ends of a conflict. I also appreciated their neighborly feuding -- it was charming but never over the top. They're both dealing with their own emotional baggage but learn how to heal and move forward with their lives.

I also loved the emphasis on your chosen family and the community shared by those in the apartment building. The cast of characters were all quirky but wrapped themselves around your heartstrings as they cared for both Nora and Will.

Overall I recommend if you want a sweet love story that handles deeper topics of grief and forgiveness.
