Colby has always felt like he doesn't fit in with his family and small town. He doesn't know if he likes it or if he wants something more but he knows he isn't like everyone else. When Vince moves to Harmony to start over after a messy breakup, he moves in with Colby. They quickly become close friends, which becomes friends with benefits. A perfect situation for two guys who have sworn off relationships, until those inevitable feelings start to happen. 

I really liked Colby and Vince's dynamic - they're exactly what the other needed. Colby needed that push to find out what he enjoys and explore himself and Vince is there to support him every step of the way. Colby's journey to discovering that he's demiromantic was really interesting and I'm glad he has such a support system to make him feel less alone. Vince is in a bit of a rough patch emotionally but he's so easily able to trust Colby. Vince moved to Harmony for a new start and so easily fits into life at Covington Acres. For two guys who have sworn off relationships, they fall into a perfect one so seamlessly. 

I liked everything, it was just slower than the previous books in the series and was missing that cozy feeling. I've read a lot of Riley Hart and I think there's a time period where I really enjoy her writing, but I haven't been vibing with some of her newer stuff. Nothing bad about any of it, it's all just okay. I really loved this series overall though. All the couples are living out their HEAs in this book, being as sweet and endearing as ever. I also absolutely need a story with the kids, Wyatt and Sean?? There's so much potential! If you want a cozy, swoony small town romance with a growing found family - I for sure would recommend this series!
