Teenage lovers are reunited ten years later in Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde's Well Built, a sweet, sexy, and at times heart breaking love story. This writing team has a knack for breathing new life into often used romance troupes and they do it with style in Well Built. 
 Ten years after Kyle Coleman left Woodmont, Illinois and Ella Fisher, the only woman he's ever loved, he is back in town and knows he will more than likely tick that same woman off royally when he outbids her for a dilapidated building next to her father's grocery store and one he knows she wants, but him buying it isn't about her or about him; it is about finally being able to give his mother something she has wanted all of her life. 
 I had great sympathy for the way these two were torn apart and I ached for the hurt they both still had in their hearts even 10 years later. They'd grown apart, they had their own lives but neither one had been fully able to move on and being in close contact again brought all those old feelings to the surface. Kyle impressed me with his ability to not let the past get in the way of what they had now or his hopes for the future, but Ella had such a hard time of living in the now and standing up to her overbearing and angry father mainly because she was scared it would cause him to have another stroke. 
 I was happy they rediscovered one another, but I hated that because Ella refused to rock the boat they really didn't get to spend time outside of the bedroom with one another. While there was no denying their chemistry and sex is part of a healthy relationship, during the majority of this book I didn't feel they were actually a couple since they had to hide what was going on between them. As much as I was happy they found one another again and I loved the ending, I kind of felt cheated out of seeing them rebuilding their relationship. 
 Entertaining and enjoyable, while Well Built isn't my favorite book by this dynamic duo, I still wouldn't have missed it for the world.
