Love Next Door by J.C. Fairbanks

Shae Mitchell is a woman on a mission. Success is within her grasp if she can only stick to her plan. The new neighbor may be the most tempting man she’s ever seen, but she’s convinced he’s all wrong for her.
Dr. Aiden Love has had enough of the academic world. Leaving behind his career as a professor and sought-after architect, he seeks out a simpler life. It turns out to be anything but simple when he falls hard for the woman next door. She’s hotter than his welding torch, but there’s something keeping her from opening up to him. Aiden will have to work to break down her walls and all her preconceived notions before the fire blazing between them ends up burning them both.
