At 23, an undiagnosed heart condition sends pro hockey player Cameron Riley back to his hometown newly single and looking for work. Cam can't hide his past - especially when his heart racing is a big risk, and boy, does his new boss's nephew make his heart race. Noah's exactly the kind of guy Cam needs after his hellish ex. Buzz is a steamy, standalone gay romance novel with a happily ever after ending and no cliffhanger.

They say time heals all wounds, but it's been five years since my boyfriend died, and I haven't dated since. I threw myself into architecture, and thankfully, there's just no time to wallow or look for love. My friends push me to get back out there, but I'm not ready to be vulnerable again. Then I meet Kev. He dresses like a catalog model, but he talks like he's got an old soul. He shows me what I'm missing but holds his own heart just out of reach. I can't stop falling for him, and he might be worth taking a risk for. Can I believe in myself enough to win his trust and his heart?

Story
The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

Publisher's summary
For the first time, enjoy the whole Riley Brothers series in one collection. If you’ve never met the Riley Brothers, it's time to dive in!
The six novels included in this collection are: Buzz, Clang, Swish, Crunch, Slam, and Grind. There are two bonus short stories ("Boo" and "Jingle") that catch up with the guys four years later.
Buzz
He’s nothing like me...and I’m falling head over heels.
Former hockey player Cameron Riley is back in his hometown and working as a beekeeper. He’s not supposed to get excited...which is impossible around his new boss’s art curator nephew, Noah. But the last thing Cam wants is to scare him off with his semi-famous status or the heart condition that ended that career and his last relationship.
When the past catches up with him, can he make the right choice? And will Noah forgive him for it, and trust in their future together?
Clang
You'll never be alone again.
When blacksmith Jackson Riley asks his friend Chase for help with his dating profile, his friendship stirs into more. Jackson wants a family tattoo, which Chase's skilled hands can deliver. But when Chase asks him to forge a sword, Jackson worries: What could he need protection from?
Swish
I wouldn’t be caught dead kissing you.
Bank teller Thomas Riley has depths he’s never shared...including the fact that his hunky ex, Alex, wants to see him again. Just three little problems: they broke up on bad terms, Thomas isn’t out to his brothers, and Alex nearly screwed up both of his brothers’ lives very recently.
Can reigniting an old flame ever work?
Crunch
I listened to you, years too late.
Tattoo artist Floyd Turner's faith in justice was destroyed as a rookie cop. After a rough few years, he now runs a tattoo shop downtown. His high school reunion is coming up, and he's dateless, aching for something more. His family is chasing him for a debt long since paid. And then his former patrol partner walks in.
Slam
I don’t want to be the poster boy.
Hockey player Kevin Shaw, fresh out of university with a year to prove himself, doesn’t need any distractions...like coming out. But he can't say no when he's asked to train with a gorgeous friend of a friend.
Life would be simpler if he could just train hard, get his big break, and squash the inconvenient torch he's carrying for Matty.
Grind
"Strictly business" is hard around you.
James is in trouble. His family turned their back on him after he transitioned, and he’s paying the price of starting his new life alone. Buried in debt, he starts a business with hunky carpenter Ryan and hopes that they succeed.
The one thing he can't afford is a distraction. But what if Ryan is the only one to see past it all and love him inside and out?
Enjoy these two short stories set in the Riley Brothers’ world, four years later!
“Boo”
Catch up on Cam and Noah’s life as they celebrate their first Halloween with their twin toddlers, Charlotte and Harper.
When Noah calls dibs on the queen bee costume, and Cam says he’ll be his honey, what exactly do they mean?
“Boo” is currently available only in this collection.
“Jingle”
The whole crowd is here for Christmas lunch, but who will ‘fess up to hiring a Santa stripper to crash the party?
“Jingle” is exclusive to this collection and has never been made available anywhere before.
Each book can be listened to on its own and promises a happily-ever-after ending, but you’ll enjoy them more as part of the whole series. A low-angst series filled with brotherly banter and small-town smiles. Buy and enjoy!

Mav disappeared before I could ever tell him about the child I carried. I’ve had years to get over him, and I’ve tried. But the second I see him again my heart lurches and it’s like all that time evaporates. I still burn for him, even though I know it’s a bad idea. I try to remind myself about the bad things: his possessiveness, his quick temper...but he’s different now. More mature. Protective. Settled. And hiding something. Something bigger than the child we share.

I’ve recently become the pawn of a meddling mom. Yes...a meddling mom - who's been trying to set me up all summer. Now, I understand it’s not a crime for a mother to want her child to fall in love, but when she makes it her relentless mission, the heinous act should be classified as a misdemeanor at least. Of course, my mom, the evil matriarch in the devil’s leggings, made her final stab at finding a girl for me days before I went back to college.

Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

Each of the Riley Brothers, 3 actual brothers plus their chosen brothers, have different perspectives and uniqueness to their love stories. This was my first mm book that touched on a trans relationship which my uninformed self knew little to nothing about. Overall I highly recommend the book!

Amazing!
The Riley Brothers Collection by E. Davies is a fantastic experience. The stories are filled with romance - steamy and sweet, low drama, banter, and fun . Although each book can be a standalone, I highly recommend giving into the whole collect of the series for the full enjoyment value.
There are the six main novels included in this collection, plus two NEW short stories that take place a few years after the event in the main series that give a glimpse into the characters' lives together.
In Buzz, Cameron and Noah give us an opposites attract romance. The story is told from multiple point of views of various characters. We get a great introduction to the Riley Brothers and the world they live in.
Next up is Clang, where Jackson and Chase treat us to a best friends to lovers romance. Then in Swish. Thomas and Alex reignite their passion together in a second chance romance.
And the entertainment continues in Crunch, Slam, Grind, Boo and Jingle.
Tbe narrator is Michael Pauley who does a phenomenal job bringing the story and characters to life for the listener. Clear and smooth recording that allows you to sit back, close your eyes and be taken into the world created in these stories. Highly enjoyable listen, highly recommended.

Six Heart-Warming Stories - Perfectly Narrated
This extraordinary collection of all six books in The Riley Brothers series, beautifully written by E. Davies and narrated with just the perfect touch of erotic intensity by Michael Dean, is a must have audiobook for all those who believe that love can overcome any obstacle.
Faced with manipulative mothers, religious bigots, homophobic and transphobic work mates, and hired private investigators, the Riley Brothers, their partners, and their friends were able to skillfully navigate through each of their stories to a more than satisfying end.
This collection also includes a cute bonus novella, Boo, that takes place with one of the couple's adopted twin daughters experiencing their first Halloween together as a family.
I loved this collection - You will too.

Great low-angst MM Romance Box Set
Audible. Box set is also available via KU and can be whispersynced at a discount.
Overall thoughts on the set: These books are low-angst, what I would call "comfort reads" and are best appreciated going in with that understanding. The stories are told via alternating POVs by chapter. This is primarily back & forth from the MC's. Occasionally there's a chapter from the POV of an MC for the subsequent book. It was a different technique, not too awkward, and it helped to get to know that future MC a bit. I've included thoughts on the individual books below and any spoilers are at the very bottom of the review. Some, I liked/connected with more than others ~ but as a whole I give it a solid 4 stars. Ultimately, This box set is a sensational value and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Narration: There are times where the writing reflects "internal dialogue" of the characters (in the ebook, these are italicized) ~ a few times it was difficult to tell that from the narration until part way through the sentence. Which could be a little jarring/confusing. I did appreciate that through the series each character keep his own unique voice, which is an amazing feat considering how many male voices appear across 6 books. Overall, I felt Micheal Pauley did a fantastic job narrating.
A note about the prologues: They're actually a snippet from later on in each story told from the opposite character's POV. If you don't like any kind of spoiler, you may want to skip them.
Book 1: Buzz
We meet minor league hockey player Cameron Riley as he's returning to his hometown after an illness leaves him no longer able to play. He quickly meets cutie Noah Clark, a newer resident of Fredericton and art curator. Most of the story revolves around Cameron adjusting to life back in his small town and without hockey, Noah's dedication to a new exhibition, and their burgeoning relationship. The blurb is misleading as 1.) it lists Cameron as a "bad boy" and Noah refers to him as such once, but it isn't at all supported by his behavior in the book AND 2.) it's not really a sports romance as once Cameron is diagnosed as having a medical condition, there really isn't any hockey. I did appreciate that any issues that arose between the two MCs were resolved quickly and maturely. Definitely quite a few steamy sex scenes, but Davies still spent a decent amount of time on their relationship and world building. It was delightful to learn about bees & beekeeping during the scenes at Noah's Uncle's farm. 4 stars for being good, but not quite what was described.
Book 2: Clang
Oldest Riley brother and blacksmith Jackson finds his "just friends" relationship with tattoo artist Chase MacLeod becoming much more. Chase is hiding from his past and adjusting to a type of relationship that's unfamiliar. I liked hearing about the Riley brothers becoming side-by-side neighbors, Jackson's blacksmith creations, and learning about Chase's difficult past. See spoiler section at the bottom for more about why this was 3.5 stars for me.
Book 3: Swish
Thomas is the youngest Riley brother and reconnects with his high school flame and private investigator, Alex Walker. This is probably my least favorite of the series, but still 3 stars. I had a hard time connecting with either character, but especially Thomas. His reasons for staying in the closet didn't make a lot of sense to me. Also, his anger with Alex was inconsistent and kind of immature even though he is only 22. Alex has depression, but the *word* is sort of just tossed in occasionally without any real exploration. I don't fully understand why it was included. Everything did come mostly around and it included a nice little epilogue, but I wasn't wow-ed by it.
Book 4: Crunch
This is my favorite so far. Perhaps because I was becoming more familiar with Davies writing style or the Riley Brothers "world" as a whole. Floyd Turner is the owner of the tattoo parlor that Chase (book 2, Clang) works at. Greyson Peters is Floyd's former police partner, now personal trainer. Greyson comes into Floyd's shop looking to get sleeve tattoos to cover scars on his arms. I loved that these guys had a history as friends as well as the way their relationship bloomed. Steamy sex scenes, dates, and some real conversations about their life struggles made me 100% behind them getting their HEA. 4.5 stars.
Book 5: Slam
Um, so *this* might be my favorite. Definitely a tie with Crunch. This one I would also definitely classify as a true sports romance. Matty O'Brien (whom we briefly met in book 1, Buzz, as Cameron's teammate) is moving up in the hockey world and mentoring Kevin (secondary character in all the books, BFF to Floyd) as he enters the league. I enjoyed them getting to know each other and was equally frustrated (in a good, literary way) when all their attempts to get together were thwarted. The way the teammates circled to encourage and protect them was nice. 5 low-angst, yet steamy stars.
Book 6: Grind
Ryan Hart is looking to get his woodcrafting business off the ground, but feels overwhelmed by the business aspects. He meets James through mutual friends and they find that they compliment each other perfectly ~ beyond just business. James has FTM transitioned and I love how it was handled in this story. We learned right along with Ryan what it meant for the relationship and how it really isn't that big of a deal if people don't make it into one. This one is definitely a slow-burn, but still a wonderful mix of sexy and sweet. Some big things also happen for couples from previous books. 4.5 stars.
Novellas:
There's not much to add to the "Boo" & "Jingle" novella descriptions without spoilers ~ so I'll just share that they're a cute addition to the set and a fun way to catch up with all the couples.

Clang Spoiler:
I understand that characters have a sex life before meeting their love in a book. But there's two fairly descriptive sex scenes of Chase and the same hook-up. One even after Jackson & Chase's first date. I understand they weren't exclusive at that point and it had roots in Chase's issues ~ but I wish they hadn't been so "thorough". It made it difficult for me to get invested in Jackson & Chase's relationship, especially given the lightning speed at which they progressed from friends to living together.

A lot to take in from this bundle!
I adore the narrator always making the story come to live for me and giving the characters life. I enjoyed Cameron and Noah despite not getting much of a backstory for Noah. The slow burn of the story made things interesting to see how the author decided to take their relationship. And there was barely any to no angst in the story so that made it even easier to enjoy.

A True Family
Each one of these amazingly told books is like a respite from the darkness of the world. They are low angst without being boring and sweet without becoming unbelievable in a bad way. The Riley's are an amazing group of men who become an unstoppable force for love. I cannot say enough good things about these books because it's not just about the bonds of blood that creates this beautiful group but the bonds of love that create these books stories of chosen family. The novellas give a look at the ever afters but not gonna lie I still want more stories. So hop on that Ed :)
The narration as always is amazing! This offering will give you hours and hours of pure enjoyment. Enjoy.

Hot and sweet
All books in one long story.
The story is sweet, lovely and hot - HOT! And totally HEA! Ends up with six happy couples who altogether are friends and family, blood and chosen!
Michael Pauley makes a great job portrating the characters but in the hot scenes, which are more than a few..., he sounds a little like an over excited sports announcer - too many words a little too fast and loud. For me that became a bit too much.
