Summary
Colby Covington has no clue if there’s anything in the world for him beyond Briar County. His family assumes he’ll do as they do: work Covington Acres, get married, have kids. Colby doesn’t want children, and seeing as he’s never felt even an inkling of romantic love for another person, he sure as hell isn’t interested in marriage.
In his mid-forties, Vincent O’Brien is starting over in the small town of Harmony. After being cheated on, again, he’s sworn off ever falling in love. As fate would have it, Vince needs a place to stay, and Colby has a spare room.
With an immediate connection that shakes up Colby’s sheltered world, neither man expects their friendship to blossom so fast…or for a semi-public hookup to make Colby realize he’s bi. Friends with benefits is perfect. It’s easy, it’s fun, they trust each other, and neither Vince nor Colby wants anything serious.
But the more their lives intertwine, the more Colby starts to feel something he’d thought himself incapable of. Something like love, with Vince…the man who will never feel—or want—the same.
Covington Acres is a small-town, bisexual/demiromantic awakening, friends-with-benefits romance with mature characters, home-brewed beer, and secret kisses.

Slow burn
Oh my goodness I loved this story so much.
Here we got Vince who had been cheated on and had sworn off relationships and his best friend/roommate Colby who despite being 40 (I think) can not figure out where he belongs in life and which label best suits him and just feels out of place around others. I love that Riley took this approach. It is so refreshing to have a character that isn't just questioning like in other books but so much more than that. I could totally relate to this and felt seen. Thank you Riley.
The 2 main characters were both wonderful and loveable. Like with the previous books the world and the side characters were all wonderful. I absolutely read this in one read and could not put it down. It was a light read but had so much feeling put into it. It was a angst free, feel good read with lots of steam and plenty of fab dirty talk. I couldn't have loved it more. It is a slow burn and the relationship development felt realistic but they certainly got hot and heavy. I'm definitely not complaining.
This can be read as a standalone but there are important parts that involve past characters so it's better to read them in order.

I'm not really a fan of Crisdens voice but I absolutely love Kale Williams, so I still had to get this audio.
