Book 1 - Gay for Pay

I would have loved this one, if not for the fact that Lincoln came into the picture later than I would have expected. Right before Chris and Lincoln's first kiss, Chris talked about how they grew closer since he started working at All Cocks, but we saw nothing of how they became friends. We only saw how Chris was trying to fit in with the models, in fact I thought he was gonna be paired with another guy, Gabe, a cute twink. This first book for me was more like an intro to the series.


Book 2 - Fame and Fortune

I've been looking for a great MMM book, unfortunately this was not it either. We got to know Victor, Andrew and Mattie in the first book, they're the owner of the porn site, All Cocks. Victor and Andrew met in college (the opening scene in this book was great), and they have been together since then, when Mattie (ten years younger then the other two) came into the picture. He was broken, and in need of a job, so he went to All Cocks.
He ended up falling in love with Andy and Vic, though it seemed to me he fell in love with the LOVE he saw burning between the two men. When I read about threesomes, I'm always afraid that one of them gets left out, and this time it was Victor, the Romanian vampire who didn't participated much. And I didn't like that, cause I was the most curious about him.


Book 3 - How to Deal

Out of the three books, maybe this one was the best.
Cocky Kory turned out to be not so cocky after all, when faced with Jon, an Irish cop. He is exclusively a top on camera, but with Jon he actually turned into a sweet bottom. Their relationship is a battle of wills, Kory tries to push Jon away at every opportunity, saying he's not good enough. I loved the back and forth between them. There were some time jumps, sometimes unexpectedly, so we didn't see everything about how their relationship progressed.


Overall I felt engaged with the stories and the characters were likeable. I would have liked better if there were more dialogues. But that's not the author's fault, just my own preference. My interest is piqued enough to go on with the other 3-book bundle.

*sigh* Two men with trauma and a therapist who becomes a friend who form a friendship that eventually leads to more as they work through their challenges. I am not a fan of therapists having relationships with their patients, but this was a bit of a different situation. Tristan is Jon's brother and was becoming friendly with the All Cocks group and then helping them when Gabe's boyfriend died in [b:How to Deal|27406341|How to Deal (All Cocks #3)|T. M. Smith|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1446392465s/27406341.jpg|47453725]. Gabe and Micah both work for All Cocks and become very close (as friends) after Gio dies. Micah and Tristan are the only two that really connect with Gabe during that difficult time.

Meanwhile, Micah suffers from PTSD after being caught in an explosion in the military and missing a leg. He hasn't adequately dealt with the loss and his connection with Tristan and Gabe help him through that. I loved that there was a model with a missing limb at All Cocks, and I loved all of the challenges being written into the story and not being glossed over. Such great emotion was written and experienced for Micah.

This was more of a slow burn story (much slower than the past books). Their friendship is very strong and a good portion of the book works on their chemistry and strength as friends. The three guys struggle with having feelings for the other 2, but not thinking the other 2 feel the same way because a throuple is not common. I loved when the acknowledgement occurred that forced the three guys to sit down and discuss their feelings. Once that happened, DAYUM. Totally hot. :-)

Great book. Loved it.

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review

So we meet Victor, Andrew, and Matthew in book 1 and they are already together. This book takes us back before [b:Gay for Pay|25593943|Gay for Pay (All Cocks #1)|T. M. Smith|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1432487835s/25593943.jpg|45399572] and we get to learn about how Victor and Andrew come together and how Matthew eventually finds his way into their hearts and family. What a rocky road for poor Mattie. He had a couple of difficult teenage years and thankfully he finds a flyer that leads him to All Cocks. Andrew and Victor are already a couple at this point (and owners of the business), and they take Mattie into their folds. They quickly realize there is more beneath the surface of Mattie and they worm their way into each other's hearts. There was trauma from the past that wasn't dealt with previously, and it was nice to see that it was addressed here and that joining into a throuple relationship was done when emotionally stable.

Getting to know more of these guys' history and a bit more in depth made me appreciate their role in book 1 even more. Despite not being old, they are the papa bears and they are amazing. And again...just like the first book, this was HOT!! Yowzers.

EDITING TO ADD AUDIOBOOK REVIEW:
Wow. I thought the book was HOT when I read it, but DANG it sounded good, too! I really enjoyed the narrator's ability to distinguish between the characters, and I felt like he made them sound the way I could imagine them. I loved it. I think I will be listening to this more than once. :-) Of course it helps that it was one of my favorite books in the whole series, and it is quickly becoming one of my favorite series of all. I am so glad I got the opportunity to review it!

I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review

Kory was such a jerk in the first book ([b:Gay for Pay|25593943|Gay for Pay (All Cocks #1)|T. M. Smith|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1432487835s/25593943.jpg|45399572]), but we never got much in the way of why except for the fact that Linc found Kory with his boyfriend at the time. Although we don't get much backstory in this book about that incident, I kind of got the impression in this book that Kory felt bad about how it affected Linc.

The beginning events of this book take place simultaneously with book 2 ([b:Fame and Fortune|26094033|Fame and Fortune (All Cocks #2)|T. M. Smith|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1440349913s/26094033.jpg|46035669]) where we first meet Detective Jon Brennan. There is some immediate spark between Kory and Jon when they first meet, and despite him seeming like a big old tough guy, Jon is just a bit more tougher. He doesn't take no for an answer and worms his way right into Kory's life and heart. Poor Kory has had such a tough childhood, and it was great to see him come to terms with things he hasn't let himself think or talk about.

Jon's family is so awesome! Their banter, support, unconditional love, and crazy Gran were fabulous. I loved reading about them, and I am so glad Tristan gets his HEA in the next book. I'm hoping to see more of this family!

Another wonderful continuation to this series. I am really looking forward to reading more of these. I love the reading about the All Cocks Family. I hope there are many more books to come, because there is such potential for more stories! :-)

EDIT: I am editing this review to mention that I have also listened to the audiobook, and it is FABULOUS!!!!! Joel Leslie has done a great job with these characters!
