My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick
3.0
Samantha, daughter of a divorced state senator with a trust fund, is fascinated by the family next door. The Garretts are loud and messy, and have 8 kids. Samantha spends her time secretly watching them as an escape from her own overly controlling mother. One day, Samantha is drawn into the Garretts' world by Jase Garrett, the boy her age. She becomes enchanted with the kids, and with Jas of course, and a romance blooms. Samantha's mother is wrapped up with "stepping up" her political campaign, and begins to make questionable decisions. When the Garretts' world colides with the political world, Samantha must decide where her loyalities lie.
This was a fairly typical teen romance, with some fun supporting characters thrown in (who can resist a toddler whose only [loud] word is BOOB?). It was an easy read, enjoyable but easily forgettable (although I do keep wondering how anyone could survive parenting 8 kids, even if they are adorable). Quick, enjoyable, and definitely recommended for my teenage daughters.
