Shane Taggart knows how lucky he is.

After a lifetime of scrimping, saving, and barely getting by, he struck it rich with a winning lottery ticket. Now he owns a successful bar called The Anchor, helps his mom with her women's shelter, sends his youngest brother on a trip around the world, and works closely with his middle brother to help out in the local community without bankrupting himself. The only thing missing in his life is a bit of romance. But it's hard to find guys who do things the way he likes best.

Archer Kinsman had it all.

He opened the tattoo shop of his dreams with his best friend, Clayton. Things were going great, and they were finally making real money. Then came the morning Archer woke up to empty bank accounts and a missing best friend. Forced to close up shop, Archer moves in with his brother, Cyrus, and his husband. It's cramped, but it's just until he gets back on his feet. It can't take too long, right?

The tides turn when Shane and Archer meet.

Archer is everything Shane is looking for. He's easy to be around, and he's more than willing to top, despite their size difference. Even if their chemistry wasn't off the charts, Shane would still want to help him get his life back on track.

Soon, Archer is living above The Anchor and getting his business up and running again. But there's still one big problem–Archer's brother, Cyrus, is protective of him, especially after what he went through with Clayton.

Cyrus is also Shane's best friend.

Shane is willing to risk it all for Archer. His friendship, his business, even his heart. Will he lose everything, or will luck smile on him twice in a lifetime?

The Anchor is a low angst, sweet and spicy romance series that's a spin-off from Breakfast at Bennett's. Though they're in the same universe, you don't need to listen to Breakfast at Bennett's to enjoy this series.

There was a plot, it was funny, and hot. Great actors, always knew the characters.

I try to stay away from books with Dom/sub roles, it’s somewhat of a trigger for me. I don’t recall anything in the title details that indicated that. It is very mild in this story, but there is some verbal humiliation, bondage, and spanking. I almost quit listening the first time one MC called the other one a slut and a whore during sex, but then decided to skip through most of the sex scenes. I did enjoy the relationship and connection between the two, but I don’t think I will continue with the series.

Not for me

What a beautiful love story!! I would read this book more than 2xs. It will make you believe in men again and the love making is out of this world , it was just not sexual bs . The men were very real

Hot

One lost man stinging from betrayal, and one man searching for someone to see who he really is. Just the right amount of angst, and great sexy times.

Brother's friend

I almost DNF'ed this multiple times. The use of words like slut and whore during sex is just a no-go for me and I wished it had been mentioned in the description. Then I would have skipped this book. The story is good and the narrators do a good job but the derogatory language ruined it. It is unnecessary and demeaning.

Not a fan of derogatory language
