Daring Draftsman - Cocky Hero Club, Wright Family Series #3 by Alexa Padgett (Nico and Cassia)





Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward are excited to bring you the Cocky Hero Club: original works from various authors inspired by Keeland and Ward's New York Times bestselling Cocky Bastard series.


BLURB

He was never supposed to be mine…

Nico Wright hates me because of my sister’s actions. I hate him because of how he makes me feel. I’m all twisted up with attraction, longing, and a large dose of shame.

When I find out he’s the architect I need to help me get the old theater turned into a proper dance studio, I have no choice but to use his designs to bring my vision to reality. As I spend with Nico, I realize he’s the only one who understands how much I ache over losing my prima ballerina position at the Boston Ballet.

He, too, had his dreams shattered by people who claimed to love him. Just like me.

I’m learning the real Nico. He cares too much. Unfortunately, I can’t let him fall for me, the younger sister of his ex-fiancรฉe who already cost him his job and his reputation.

Daring Draftsman is an enemies to lovers/workplace romance inspired by British Bedmate.

COCKY HERO CLUB



 This is book 3 in the Wright Family series. It stars three siblings who lost their parents young and this is about the last sibling, the eldest, Nico who runs the architecture family firm with his siblings and who has a very bad history with an ex named Amanda, who he was engaged to but who also stole some of his designs. 

In this book we meet Cassia, a former ballerina who is also Amanda's younger sister. She meets Nico at a nightclub that she is at with her boyfriend stealing sister, Amanda. When Nico makes the connection, he treats her very badly because of his dislike for Amanda.

Cassia has a dream and that's to build a ballet studio and that's how she runs into Nico again as he is the brother of some of her friends who are planning on making her dream reality.

This is an enemies to lovers romance as Nico hates Cassia purely for her connection to Amanda. Cassia meanwhile understands his feelings as Amanda has been the worst sister in the world to her. Despite their feelings they work together and form a friendship and end up falling for each other.

There is a bit of a side story with someone trying to destroy Amanda's dream and some tampering with some of Nico's families projects. I loved how Nico's family and friends end up supporting him and Cassia and help them find out who is out to get them.

This was a wonderful conclusion to the Wright family series and I loved that it comes full circle and we get to see how Amanda ends up getting punished for her misdeeds as Nico rides off into his future.

I received a complimentary early release copy of this e-book from the author prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.
