It all starts with a piece of candy and a note...This book makes me hate myself and some of my GR peeps too! Okay, well not really but...how in the world did I not get a strong recommendation from anyone to read this book immediately! Don't get me wrong, I saw it pop up here and there but I didn't pay attention. I'm not a big fan of friends to lovers stories. Usually the books are filled with misunderstandings, missed opportunities, and angst.  A lot of times the stories drag on and it takes too long to get to the "good stuff". So I wasn't really sure what I would find when I picked up this book this weekend. It popped up on sale and I thought what the heck.  Imagine my surprise when Friend Zoned hit all my sweet spots!  EEK!Friend Zoned is the tale of one sexy many and one sweet lady and the laugh out loud journey they go on from meeting, to friendship, and beyond. I simply adored this book. This book is funny! Nik and Tina have the best chemistry. I seriously loved reading about how their friendship develops. The lunch dates, the poker nights, the instant messages...I was totally invested.  If the author wouldn't have made the build up so much fun, I might have read the first half and been patiently waiting for the hook up.  Sometimes I just want to get to the "good stuff". Well in Friend-Zoned, the "good stuff" really is the whole book. By the time these two do get together, I wanted to jump up in down.  And seriously, the supporting characters rock! Throw in a little alpha maleness, a little over the top drama, and some steamy bits and this is a top read for me.I've already read the second book in the series and am desperately searching for details on when the next book will be released. I'm sending a request for anyone to recommend a book that will hit the same sweet spots as this one. Loved it!
