When long hours and crushing stress push Bellamy Alexander to his breaking point, he walks away from his consulting job and drives until he runs out of gas. Fortune deposits him in front of Antonio’s, a place with decent pizza and an opening for a delivery boy. Even better, he finds an apartment right across the street from his new job. And best of all, Chris McGregor, the property manager who runs the custom furniture shop below Bell’s new digs, is super hot—and super into Bell.
It seems too good to be true—and maybe it is. Things aren’t exactly going smoothly. Bell avoids telling his mother the truth about his new job because he doesn’t want to hear how he should go back to the corporate world. On the other hand, he doesn’t think he wants to deliver pizza forever either. He’d like to think about settling down, but Chris runs hot and cold. Between Bell’s uncertainty and the hang-ups Chris refuses to talk about, they have their work cut out for them. Fortune may have caused their paths to dovetail, but it will take more than wood glue to hold them together.

This one has the weirdest premise I've encountered in a while, and I almost tossed it because of one serious mistake made very early on: Bellamy (foreground, cover) has quit his high powered job in a big city, packed up and gets in his car and heads east for hundreds of miles. Yet when he stops to gas up and get lunch in this small town, and quickly takes a job as a pizza delivery guy, his driver's license says he's from Rhode Island. That means he's in the Atlantic Ocean--not a peaceful college town in the middle of nowhere.In fact, we are never told what state this book takes place in, and you know what? It doesn't really matter because it's so sweet and leisurely moving that we fall in love with Bellamy and his new friend, landlord and lust object, Chris, right away.
This is such an uplifting and smile-for-me book that when the two of them finally get together and explain to each other what is holding each back from a real relationship, we've been smiling so long that the reasons don't matter at all.

Babe in the Woodshop edition by Ashlyn Kane Claudia Mayrant CJ Burke Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Babe in the Woodshop suffers from a really unfortunate title. In fact, the title almost persuaded me to skip it. BUT, the book is much better than the title promises!
When we meet Bell, he’s just run out of gas and finds himself in a small town with an interesting opportunity to start over. At first, it’s a bit disorienting as to what will actually unfold – but as soon as you get to know Bell a little bit more, you quickly like him. He’s just quit his high-paying/high-powered job because he was just DONE (haven’t we all been there before?). And has gone searching to find himself… which leads up to his current situation. While delivering pizza, he meets Chris and his radar is pinged for attraction. And what follows, is a cute falling in lust then dating story.
Some things to note about this book It was a fun and fast read – I enjoyed it, and would have rated it even higher, but as a whole, the plot line came across as hokey in many places – and not fully developed, from a character’s point of view. For example, Bell just made a huge life change – and he had literally zero angst about it. As someone who has done exactly what he did, I can’t even imagine there weren’t any crisis moments there. Also, I really liked Bell and Chris, but they seemed to come together almost because there were no other options in their small town. That wasn’t actually the case, and it’s even mentioned in the book as a joke, but it rang a bit true at some moments. Essentially, it felt like the authors were holding back in the development area – they created a light and upbeat love story, which is awesome don’t get me wrong, but wasn’t quite as believable or emotional as it could have been.
If you’re looking for a light and quick love story read, between two “normal guys” – then this is a great book for you!
***Review Copy of Babe in the Woodshop provided by Dreamspinner Press to Alpha Book Club for an honest Review.**
I freaking loved this story! The characters in this story were cute, funny, and full of sass and snark. One of my favorite things in stories is humor and Bell and Chris both have it in spades.
“Chris’s ears went red. “I can’t believe I did that in your parents’ house.”
“Me neither. Teenage me is fist-pumping right now.”
Bellamy Alexander, otherwise known as Bell, gets tired of the rat race and never seeing the sun so he bails on his Junior Consultant job in the big city and just drives. Where he lands is Pineville, a small town where everyone knows everyone and the new guy is a novelty. Oh and of course once you live there you never want to leave, or so they say. Bell is young and decides the life his parents and siblings live where it's all work and no play is not what he wants. He wants to experience life and have time to relax. One thing leads to another and he finds himself a pizza boy at Antonio’s, living upstairs from a woodshop and it’s sexy owner, and sharing a bed with Lady Frances. He also isn’t used to subtly because in the big bad corporate world you had to be straight forward so when he finds himself dating super gun shy Chris McGregor, owner of Good Wood, it’s a whole new ball game.
Watching these two dance around each other was so much fun and created a high level of unresolved sexual tension especially on Bell’s end who is not used to taking things this slow. But he really starts to like Chris and doesn’t want to push the sexy funny man too far too fast. Who knew beards were his thing?
“His libido seriously needed to chill. If he was going to start getting hard every time he saw a pile of wood scraps, it was going to be a problem.”
Chris has had a bad relationship that caused him some issues within himself and those issues cause him to very cautious and keep Bell at arm’s length especially when it comes to sex. The whole story is told from Bell’s POV but even through him we get a true sense of who Chris is. He such a gentle guy, one that is meticulous in his woodworking as he is in most everything else. He is also a work alcoholic.
When I say their relationship was slow build...I mean it! Chris is very standoffish when it comes to sex and Bell doesn’t find out the reason until much, much later. But not all things are going so well for Bell; he still hasn’t told his mother about delivering pizza’s or his new boyfriend since he knows she would not approve. A family emergency sends Bell home where he is forced to confront things with his family. Will Chris and Bell survive the experience?
“Because”...”he’s the best thing in my life right now, and I’ll be really upset if you make him feel like he’s not good enough.”
There’s funny banter, awkward naked run ins, meddling best friends, a pushy mom who just wants what’s best, and that secret tote full of goodies that Bell finds in the apartments closet of Chris’s. I highly recommend this book because it’ll have you laughing and full of love.
“Please keep putting up with me.”
