Nailed Down by Eden Butler, Chelle Bliss
4.0
NAILED DOWN is book one of a new series by Chelle Bliss and Eden Butler. I've read several books by Chelle Bliss but this a first for me from Eden Butler! They collaborated really well together...there's only a few times where I could guess that it was maybe Ms. Bliss writing (she does love those alphas!).
Kane is the star of a home improvement show. His co-host and best friend is Kit. She just lost her cousin but her dying wish was for Kit to complete a bucket list that includes some things that involve a "partner".
The friends to lovers trope is a fave of mine! I always enjoy watching that transformation from friends to more and the realization that being friends first makes a pretty solid foundation for a relationship. Kit was...well I'm going to say it...she was kinda ALPHA! Sounds weird I know but she ended up being the decisive one, Kit knew what she wanted and what she wanted was Kane. And although there's times that Kane is pretty alpha himself (which is HAWT by the way) he spends a lot of time debating between keeping Kit as a friend or taking that chance at being more (is that considered a spoiler??). Their story is a slow burn but when Kane and Kit finally take the plunge...WOWZA!
This doesn't have a lot of over the top drama though there's parts that are a bit sad. But mostly, this is a fun, light read. Told from dual POVs with a happy ending. I received, read and voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
