Friends. Ride or die, right?
Always have your back.
Know all your dirty little secrets.
Love the shiny parts of you, and embrace the crappy ones?
Yeah? Well, I don't know about all that nonsense because my friends are just a bunch of assholes.
They're taking over.
They're commandeering my love life.
They're constructing a dating profile for me, and it's bad...
Because I don't even have the password for it,
and I have to do exactly what they say.

Gradation is a fun, steamy new look at contemporary romance and modern dating practices. It offers a comedic edge only true friends can deliver because Alabama's friends know her better than anyone. They especially know her dating pitfalls and uncanny ability to repeat the same mistakes with men. They also know Gavin is the polar opposite of her type. He is as far from a buttoned-up, corner-office executive as they come. However, her friends won't let that get in the way of a beautiful, sometimes hilarious love story.

Gradation
noun:
gra-da-tion / Grey-dey-shen
Definitions:
Gradation- A gradual change.
Tattoo gradation- A visual technique of gradually transitioning from one hue to another.
Individual Gradation- A gradual progression in opinion, perception, or attitude toward another. Or, perhaps, a gradual change in your intolerance towards another human being--who, if we are completely honest, is really just a cocky bastard anyway.

Early praise:

BEST READ EVER!
I normally don't write reviews about a book I've read even if I love it.... But I just have to with Gradation. It's such a beautiful love story and I fell in love with Gavin so hard that I had to stop myself from reading this book too fast. If I like a book a lot I have no problem finishing it within the day but Gradation had me almost in tears when I hit the halfway mark because I just did not want it to end! The romance was hot and way steamy which I love but the relationship with Alabama and Gavin had me dreaming for the same thing to happen to me!!! It's easy to say I am now following KC Decker and am looking forward to more reads like this in the future!

Holy Smoke!
I'm a sucker for a good romance & this one didn't disappoint. It was extremely well written, with believable characters and an original storyline.

Fabulous read
Don't- sleep- on- this- book- y'all!
Wow this is my first book by author kc decker and I gotta say I loved it so freaking much. The storyline was fabulous. Loved the banter. Loved Alabama and Gavin, loved how Gavin made her work for it. And how Alabama grew from her mistake.

Unable to put it down!
This book was so great. And scary realistic when it comes to discomfort over potential lovers! I couldn't put this book down...the author is splendid...I loved loved LOVED this book.

Hot, hot, hot!
This book has such an amazing story and a wonderful lesson. Never judge a book by the cover. People are not who you may believe and that is not a bad thing. Gavin and Alabama deserve the HEA that they got. I loved this book and it is a must read.

Loved reading this story. Great chemistry. Love Alabama and Gavin's love story filled with laugh out moments. Love the banter and the misconceptions that were made and the rewards that happens once their truth self is reveal. Love the chemistry. Engaging read from beginning to end. Recommended read

Can I give this more than 5 stars? Absolutely fell in love with the characters and their roller coaster ride of a relationship. I couldn't put this book down, and I don't regret one minute of time spent with these hilarious and crazy group of people. Looking forward to the next.
