KM can not do wrong! If you've been a fan for a while, you meet Auggie in Stripped (4 bears construction book 6) where he has a hopeless crush on Demetri, so we've known his type for a while.
When Big Bull hires a new front of house manager, Auggie doesn't expect to find a past hook up with a different name! Henry is back in his hometown after burning out in Chicago . He takes a job at Big Bull, not expecting to find his hot hook up as a worker!
These two are sweet and adorable from the getgo it just takes Henry a bit to realize he's worth it and does deserve a chance!
Get ready for more fun shenanigans and swoon romance!

Cute MM romance with older MC
3.5 ⭐ rounded up for Rear Ended by KM Neuhold, book #4 in the Big Bull Mechanics series.
Auggie is feeling that maybe it's a case of "always the bridesmaid, never the bride" for him as more of his friends pair up with the loves of their lives. When he sees an uncomfortably out-of-place older bear-type in a gay bar and ends up taking him home for a hot hook-up, he's not that surprised when the guy runs off after. But then he turns up at work, the new office manager for the Big Bull Mechanics.
Henry's life has been turned upsidedown. With the loss of his company, high-flying workaholic city lifestyle, and the money to maintain it, he's forced to have a good luck at himself. A hookup turns uncomfortable first day when he meets Auggie again. But Henry doesn't think he has anything to offer someone, and doesn't plan to stay in a small town. So when he and Auggie start hooking up again, the plan is to keep it casual. But best laid plans...
This was a really cute, low angst, moderately spicy story with a look at what is important in life. The found family of the Big Bull Mechanics is as cute as ever. I just didn't feel as invested in these two as some of the previous books.
In this you'll find: MM romance with spice; 2 gay MCs; an older MC with a lack of self worth; a middle age life change with job loss and homelessness; a sweet tattooed small town mechanic; found family; a 5k color race; and a HEA.

Henry and Auggie such great characters. This whole series is laugh out loud funny. I love the relationships between the characters and their friends. Finally Auggie gets his man! Love Hamlet, the pot bellied pig. I always know that I will love KM Neuhold's books.

Enjoyable, funny, and spicy like the rest of the books in this series. Felt lacking in character and relationship development to me. 3 ⭐️ for an average read that was still a positive experience. I was looking forward to Auggie’s book throughout the series so I am a bit bummed, but still liked Auggie as a character in this.
Also, by far my favorite cover of K.M. Neuhold’s. I don’t usually like the half-naked men book covers, but this one I am fully on board with

A steamy hook up, a fake name, and a big guy struggling to come to terms with his new life. When Auggie meets the new office manager at Big Bull, the hottie he hooked up with a month ago and can’t stop thinking about is revealed to be Henry, not Jake. Auggie is determined to explore the magic they had and fight for Henry. Henry is committed to fighting Auggie every step of the way because he doesn’t feel he has anything to offer. Auggie enlists the help of his baking skills and his pet pig Hamlet to help sway Henry into opening himself up and gaining confidence that he doesn’t need to offer anything to be loved.
