Kelli Welch's dream of owning a townhouse is finally coming true, and she is delighted beyond words when she moves in and finds she has the most wonderful neighbors anyone could ask for. Except for Spencer Blake, who lives right next to her. He doesn't socialize with the others and Kelli thinks he's the closest thing to a stuffed shirt she's ever met, especially when he paints his house boring old gray. Spencer Blake has been waiting to buy on Camelot Court, and the day he closes on his new home is the happiest of his life. Until he learns who the neighbor to his immediate right is; none other than Kelli Welch, who he already has to deal with at work five days a week. He tells himself he can get along with Kelli if he stays out of her way, which works until the day she paints her house pink. Then he knows this is never going to work.
