It can be read as a standalone without issue but reads much better if read in the order that the authors intended.
Austin “Daredevil” Wentworth has been in love/hate relationship with his brother's best friend, Greer Rowan, since he was a teenager. The book starts in the past when the attraction between Austin and Greer is revealed. Austin is living for the military and one night is all that can happen between them. They make plans to meet and act on that attraction later that evening but something that happens leaves Austin hating everything about Greer or so he thought.
Greer knew he shouldn't be attracted to his best friends brother. He's younger and Greer isn't gay. He's never been with a man but something about Austin makes him want throw away everything he's ever known about himself and give Austin every part of himself but he's kept all of these feelings buried deep for years. When his sister starts talking about matchmaking for him at his nieces wedding Greer is willing to do anything not to let that happen. Now that Austin and Greer are living in the same city Greer uses his influence and friendship with Austin's boss to have Austin assigned to him as protection. If he can't get Austin to talk to him in Portland being in a fake relationship on a far away island together should do the trick.
I loved everything about these characters. I have been dying for Greer and Austin's story and these authors did not disappoint! My heart broke for Austin and the pain he went through and completely understood the wall he built to protect himself from that heartbreak again. Greer did and said everything he could when Austin would finally listen to explain what happened and why he did what he did. I loved seeing the chemistry between build and the relationship develop.

I loved this sweet story. Atlas having a bi-awakening is so natural and real. Zeb is so geeky and adorable. They compliment each other so well and both getting their HEA is so heart warming. Catered All the Way is the perfect holiday feel good read.

Morgan Shaw is moving back to Hamilton from college to open a new fashion boutique with her soon to be sister in law, Georgie. Morgan's designs will be featured in the boutique and she couldn't be more excited. She's moving in above the boutique with a design studio on the second floor. It's everything she's ever dreamed of except maybe for Ryan Marshall finally noticing her. She's been in love with her brother, Blayze's best friend for as long as she can remember but figures it's just not meant to be. But when weird things start happening Ryan is her first call and when he agrees to move in to keep her safe can she make Ryan see what's right in front of him? Ryan Marshall has taken notice of Morgan even getting Blayze's blessing to date her. But when Morgan is in danger from a stalker Ryan will do everything he can to keep her safe.
I loved the added action and excitement with a stalker. With that taking situation over the drama part of the story I loved getting to see Ryan and Morgan saying what they mean and not focusing on drama between them. I can't wait for what's next!!

SPARK is the first book in the Love & Rugby series.
Mateo and Finley meet on Finley's fortieth birthday get together. Mateo is a bouncer at the club Finley and his brother, Cam and his rugby friends were at. Mateo also plays with rugby with the guys. When Cam sees the immediate attraction between his friend and his brother of course he tries setting them up.
Mateo is trying to dig out from the debt he has accumulated helping out his sister so he's working construction during the day and bounces at the club a few nights a week plus trying to renovate his house isn't leaving a lot of time for a relationship but for Finley he's willing to try.
Finley owns a condom company with his siblings and works hard but is willing to take any spare time Mateo is willing to give to him. Finley comes with his own baggage regarding the dangerous sport Mateo and his brother play.
Their chemistry is immediate but the first few chapters were had for me to get lost in. When I finally found my stride I thoroughly enjoyed the read but I did put it down quite a few times not connecting with the characters. I am glad I kept picking it back up though since I did enjoy it. I was hit with an emotional pull I wasn't expecting. I love when someone's (or in this case two someones) writing can bring tears to my eyes.

When Ethan finds himself seated next to his ultimate crush on the plane home from college for the holidays he thinks it's probably his bad luck playing a part. When the plane is forced to make an emergency landing in a small town Ethan knows its his horrible luck. Kingsley Sharp has been the object of Ethan's desire since they met when Kingsley moved in next door when they were little. Ethan's brother and Kingsley quickly became best friends and Ethan always felt as if Kingsley didn't like him and was out to get him. When they ended up at the same college Ethan always steered clear of Kingsley.
Kingsley has always had an attraction for Ethan but they always seem to have this unknown wedge between them. When they find themselves snowed in waiting for the airline to let them know when their plane is fixed the small town charm and the closeness of the room has them opening up in ways neither expected.

SECOND CHANCE MINE is the sixth and final book in the Second Chance series. It can be read as a stand alone without issue.
Adrian and Cade are brothers. Cade and Paige are best friends but Adrian and Paige have been running around an attraction they both share for each other. When they do finally get together it doesn't end well causing Paige to lose Cade as a friend. Ten years later Paige never expected to see Adrian again much less work for him but here they are. Can they keep it professional? or will the attraction that's never gone away blow up in their faces?
I found SECOND CHANCE MINE dialed back compared to the others in this series. The emotions were running this storyline more so than the sexy factor. I enjoyed the suspense sprinkled in it had me flying through the pages to find out what happens.

COUNTERPOINT is the second book in the In Vino Veritas series. It can be read as a stand alone without issue as it is a multi-author series.
This is a new to me author so I did not read the book first mentioning these characters, BOOKLOVER but was able to understand the character dynamic of these characters.
After Jeremy's dad is diagnosed with Alzheimer's he promises his dad he will live everyday. He takes this promise to heart and becomes a playboy. It's a reputation he's okay with because he's out there living his life every day.
When Aaron got into law school he kept it a secret and ended up not talking to his family for months. His brother, Jamie's best friend, Jeremy took it upon himself to contact Aaron to get him back to town. One thing leads to another and they agree to never talk about it. But it get's awfully hard to not think about that night when they are working in the same office for the summer. Can they continue to act like that night didn't happen or will they fall into the feelings they are having for each other?
There was such a slow burn between Jeremy and Aaron it was almost painful to read. I wanted them to just talk it out but the author drew it out just enough so when it finally does happen it's explosive between them. Jeremy and Aaron both have some difficult issues in their past, Aaron not believing in himself and Jeremy with his family and his future. I loved watching these two characters help each other and push each other out of their comfort zone.
After reading COUNTERPOINT I will definitely be going back to read Booklover and others set in this world!
