Covington Acres by Ruley Hart

My review

Every time Riley Hart goes back to Briar County, you know you are in for a true down to earth romance. These are the stories of everyday working men just trying to find their place in this small, close-knit community. Colby grew up with the most loving family in all of Briar County, yet just doesn't feel like he is enough. Vince moves to Briar to be closer to his best friend Holden when he gets burned from his boyfriend once again. Neither man is looking for the typical hea just for a place to fit in and be happy.

Together, they learn it's better to be your true self and just be happy. They gain that courage and freedom from the other. I do hope Riley continues on with this series. Each and everyone has become a comfort read and eventually listen for me when they go to audio.

Book overview

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.
