BLURB:

Can a bucket list make two people realize they belong together?

Griffin has been in love with his neighbor since the day he moved in and Nolan showed up at his doorstep with baked goods. Since then, his feelings have only grown stronger, but he’s never voiced them, too afraid of losing his best friend.

While drinking the night before Valentine’s Day, the two devise a plan. Nolan writes a bucket list of things he’s always wanted to do with a partner and Griffin volunteers to make that bucket list happen. Having one day as Nolan’s fake mate is better than never experiencing it at all, right? At least that’s what Griffin tells himself.

Could this bucket list ruin their friendship? Or will it finally open their eyes to the feelings they’ve both been hiding from each other?

The Bucket List is a low angst alpha/omega story without mpreg. Inside you’ll find so much pining, a raccoon shifter, an alpha wolf, best friends to lovers, Valentine’s Day fluff, and of course a happily ever after.

REVIEW:

The perfect fast read that will rev you up and also leave you in a sugar overload it’s so sweet 💕

Griffin and Nolan have been neighbors for ten long years. Each longing for the other one but not wanting to tip the basket and risk their best friend status. That is until Griffin decides enough is a enough and decides he’s granting each of Nolan’s bucket list items for Valentine’s Day. But will one day be enough for either man?

I absolutely loved this short, sweet book! It gives you all the warm and fuzzy feels of new love while knowing that these two men were standing in their own ways to true love and happiness together. This book takes place over a 24-hour period but their friendship and longing have developed over ten years. That’s a very long time to keep your inner wolf and raccoon at bay for their one true mate.

I especially loved the touch of Darla and Katherine’s story at the Hibachi restaurant. I think that was the final catalyst to move each man forward to profess their true feelings.

I wish we could have a follow up book of how Nolan fulfills Griffin his Bucket List in the epilogue. 😉 Obviously I loved this book but it’s no surprise since the author has become one of my one-click authors. I love his shifters and their stories so much.
