#1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Nora Roberts enchants again with this beloved classic about the passionate and headstrong MacGregor family.
Brooding loner Preston McQuinn's new apartment, like his life, is just the way he prefers it—dark and empty. But when sunny Cybil Campbell comes barging into his well-ordered gloom, he can't deny a grudging fascination with his bright, bubbly neighbor. Preston thought he'd closed the door on love for good, so why is he suddenly longing to open up his heart to his incredibly perfect neighbor?

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5It's a good book with a beautiful story line. Just because I love love?❤️ but not as good as I expected it to be. It's a good read otherwise...
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What a sweet story. Made me giggle so much! I love how straight forward people can be and I love how others struggle to understand straight forward people ? I know it's sort of classic love story but I enjoyed it so much ?
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love the book. What happened to Matthew Campbell? Curious now

COMMENTS: Even tho' this considered the last (#11) in the MacGregor series it reads very well as a stand-alone. A nice romance between a very outgoing woman and the moody introverted new neighbor. Cybil is friends to all the other residents and is curious about the new neighbor who hides out in the next-door apartment. Cybil's place seems to be the hub of the complex where all the other residents congregate. When the new guy moves in everyone is curious, especially when he is rarely seen and leaves at dark w/ his saxophone. One evening Cybil follows him to a club where he plays….
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The Perfect Neighbor by Nora Roberts#11 in MacGregor Series - (Preston McQuinn & Cybil Campbell)Cybil Campbell (daughter of Genevieve & Grant) works from home on her popular daily comic strip, "Friends and Neighbors". She's the darling of the building and is used to her neighbors popping into her apartment to hang out as a group while she's working. She likes the background noise and she cares for her neighbors, young and old, even though they continually try to set her up with boring dates with their distant relatives.There's new excitement in the building when a private and mysterious man moves in across the hall. He rarely goes out during the daytime, he often plays broody, bluesy songs on his sax, and he'll randomly leave the house at odd times of the night. He's definitely not interested in getting to know his neighbors, however, and is abrupt and rude.Cybil brings him homemade cookies, and thinking he is an unemployed musician, she later offers him $100 to pretend he's taking her on a date so one of the older women in the building will stop setting her up with her groping nephew. On a whim, he agrees and ends up interested and intrigued. That doesn't stop his rudeness, but the attraction is there. He's actually a successful playwright with a bitter past which puts stumbling blocks in the way of a relationship. However, with a little help from Cybil's matchmaking grandpa, Daniel MacGregor (from earlier installments of the MacGregor series), the possibilities for happiness are there for the taking. Interesting and fun characters, witty dialogue, heart-tugging moments, big-time chemistry. Really great read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This one, IMO, was just right. Nice characterization, light, quick read. Shades of Cybil's parents' romance, but not as exaggerated. In fact, Cybil realizes at one point that Preston reminds her of her father, which is a nice bit of characterization there--women do frequently fall in love with men who remind them of their fathers.
