Collin Harrison is loving life as a bachelor, but can’t convince his meddling mother to back off. To make matters worse, he’s confused by his attraction to his new neighbor, Devin. But Collin has never been with a man before.

Devin Hardy is no stranger to fulfilling his intimate desires—desires which include his hot neighbor. Good things come to those who wait, but Devin is getting tired of waiting to turn their friendship into one with scorching hot benefits.

This was my first time reading a m/m story and I thought the story itself was great, but maybe just not my thing. I usually need a female character in a story to really get into it, and there wasn't one in Friends with Benefits (and I don't count Collin's mother, that would just be kind of weird).

I think I would have liked it a bit better if there had been a little more background, like when Collin and Devin first met or something.

Please note that this is just my opinion. While it didn't really appeal to me, it might to others who like m/m stories.
