Well, I have to say I have been and always be team SkyeCo. It was a race to the finish line but Cohen and Skye are now my favourite Cook couple, besting the previous winners Jamie and April. Their chemistry is insane, and I have always been a sucker for the best friends to lovers trope. I just love it when people already have that familiarity and relationship to take to the next level, and the moment in which they realise something changed and the game needs to be upped. Plus love the Rossi family and I want a Dion a Penny for myself!
Can’t wait for Ezra and Gilly story!

What a fabulous story. Harvey delivers another must-read and I already can’t wait for more!
After reading the last book, I was eager to get my hands on this one. I’ve had a soft spot for Cohen throughout the series. I was excited for him to get his story and what a story it was. It was fun and sweet with just a bit of angst, quite a few laugh out loud moments and some seriously sexy ones, too. On top of that, we get Skye who I absolutely adore!
As with the rest of the series, we get a little sneak peek at what’s to come and wow! Don’t make me full name you, BJ! What a tease! I can’t wait to see how everything will unfold.

Hard Work is just a wonderful installment in the Cook Brothers series.

We learned a bit about Cohen and Skye in the previous book, and now it is time for them to shine.

This book is sweet, funny - at times downright hilarious - and full of so much UST it leaps out of the book.

You know right from the start that the little arrangement Cohen and Skye make is never going to work. I love that they naively thought that the could just be FWB, but the reader is just waiting, waiting,waiting for the inevitable.

I love the banter between Cohen and the rest of the extended Cook family. My goodness they had me laughing so hard at times, however I love that they aren't all fun and games. You can't just have the Cohen and Skye story - you get the whole kit and kaboodle that is the Cook family.

Wonderfully written, you can't help but want to be part of this family. I know I want the Cooks adopt me.

Now I can't wait to get my mitts on Ezra's story - oh man, this is gonna be a good one!

ARC kindly received in exchange for an honest review.

This is my favourite book from this series. I was so keen to get Cohen and Skye's story after meeting them properly in the previous book. I was definitely not let down.

These two have a fabulous working relationship and friendship, however everyone can see how they would likely work well in a romantic relationship as well. Their banter and they way they just fit together is perfect.

Once things ramp up a bit more, it becomes even more fun. I just love these two together, and boy are they HOT as well. Hooooo boy!

Throw in the fact that they both have big families, and ones who like to give each other hell, but are just a protective, and its lots of fun from that perspective as well.

I'm not too sure how I feel about the inevitable breakdown of things, and the subsequent putting it back together. Some of it was frustrating and maybe too much, but it also put a point across at the same time. Also parts seemed just right for these two. So I'm undecided there.

A few surprises thrown in during this book too.

Overall, a really fun and sexy read, and now I just need to know where I can find a Cohen of my on? BJ, help a single girl out yeah?

Looking forward to the next one, its got Ezra written all over it...

If you haven't started the Cook Brothers series yet then you are missing out because these brothers are nothing short of PERFECTION! How does each story get better and better??? Cohen and Skye are bestfriends and coworkers but Skye is ready for more..... friends with benefits, but Cohen doesn't want to ruin their amazing friendship. What happens when you promise a friends with benefits relationship but no feelings?? What happens when those lines began to blur?? Cohen and Skye's story was fun, heartfelt, witty and a beautiful emotional story about falling for your bestfriend. I've fallen hard for these Cook Brothers and I'm sad to see them end but looking forward to Ezra's book because we'll get to see the gang together again!

This was the weakest of the Cook Brothers books so far. It wasn't clear to me why Cohen was so anti-relationship when he's surrounded by loving relationships. He screws up and grovels by enlisting her BFF's help, gives her the keys to drive his beloved, restored vintage car and declares his love in front of his and her siblings.

Hard Work by B.J. Harvey is book 4 in the Cook Brothers series, a contemporary romance series which features a set of house flipping brothers seeking their better halves. In this instalment, Cohen and Skye have a seemingly perfect arrangement until they break all the rules.
As they are co-workers, best friends and neighbours - with benefits - this book has been aptly named. They are a very adorable couple and are perfect together but they lost a star because of how frustrated I got with both of them at the end before they got their acts together. Bring on Ezra.
