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.

GLBTQ Romance5 Stars!! Ryan isn’t looking for a relationship with a guy—and Johnny isn’t looking for a relationship at all. Although this book is part of the Housemates series, it has new main characters, a satisfying happy ending, and can be read as a standalone.
