When they initially meet, she looks familiar to him but he couldn’t place her. In this books case, our heroine, Naomi, knows Oliver, but he doesn’t knows her. I am not a fan of one character being in on a secret that plays a huge part of how they treat the love interest and why they treat them a certain way but the other character has no idea about it. This ‘con’ is more of a preference of tropes I guess you can say and it’s just not a story plot that meshes well with my anxiety. There was one con to this book and I’ll go ahead and get it out of the way. No seriously though, I really enjoyed Passion On Park Avenue.

Now they find themselves engaged in a battle-of-wills that will either consume or destroy them…įilled with charm and heart and plenty of sex and snark, this entertaining series will hook you from the very first page. Oliver used to torment Naomi when they were children, and as a ridiculously attractive adult, he’s tormenting her in entirely different ways.

The worst offender is her new neighbor, Oliver Cunningham-the grown son of the very family Naomi’s mother used to work for. Now, as the strongminded, sassy CEO of one of the biggest jewelry empires in the country, Naomi finally has exactly what she wants-but it’s going to take more than just the right address to make Manhattan’s upper class stop treating her like an outsider. For as long as she can remember, Bronx-born Naomi Powell has had one goal: to prove her worth among the Upper East Side elite-the same people for which her mom worked as a housekeeper.
