This is a fantastic series!
I read each of the individual books as they were published starting in 2019 and I loved all of them. The books are told in first person POV, alternating between the MCs of each story.
Starting from Zero is an age-gap story with a wealthy older man and a young man with a band he wants to become successful.
Starting from Scratch starts out as a love-hate relationship that soon changes when the heat between them becomes explosive. The repartee between Charlie and Ky is great and the story is sexy and HOT.
Starting from Here is a friends-to-enemies-to-lovers story set in the world of two emerging rock bands going on their first tour together.
Starting from Somewhere is Bobby J and Cody’s story and the chemistry between the two of them radiated off the page for me.
Starting from the Top is an age-gap story. Johnny had a pretty awful home life growing up but he managed to overcome that and is on his way to stardom, along with his bandmates who make up Zero. Sean has two kids and he recently came out as bi-sexual after his divorce.
Starting From is a great series and the short stories included in this collection are fun; I loved reading them.

05 AprBlog Tour / Review: Challenged (Vipers Creed MC #1) by Ryan Michele
Author SpotlightsGrowing up in the fast-paced and rough life of a motorcycle club wasn’t easy. Cleaning up the mess his father had made of Vipers Creed meant sacrifice. Cade ‘Spook’ Baker had given up everything to bring the club life back to what it was supposed to be: a family. The choices he made were not what he wanted, but they were necessary for the club as a whole. Second chances rarely came to Spook, so when his Trixie walked boldly into his clubhouse, the decision was made. Trixie would once again be his, this time for good.
