| Volume 2 |
The ability to overcome adversity is called resilience, which is the capacity to adapt to and recover from challenging life experiences. Each character in these pro-reproductive and LGBTQIA2S+ rights charity volumes will face such a decision and ultimately RISE.
More than 100 authors and book service providers have gathered together to bring you a spicy romance anthology with purpose. ALL proceeds will be split between reproductive and LGTBQIA2S+ charities. No one involved with the project is being compensated.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
Statement Made by Bree Wiley
4/5 Stars
Following the world of State of Us, this story follows Dev and Christian and Arya. Though in terms of point of view the book really follows Dev and Christian as they navigate this thing building between them and also Arya since she is in a relationship with Christian. These three have been known to hook up a bit together. But there is something changing a bit. Christian is struggling with the fact that he may actually be attracted to Dev. He isn’t against the idea per se, but it really becomes more of a first for him. Dev is bisexual, out and proud, and has no problem whatsoever with saying so. He likes to hook up with Arya and Christian, but the truth of the matter is he is so tired of being used and thrown aside. He wouldn’t mind someone sticking around and wanting him for him. He hopes that Christian would be different, but he isn’t sure that is true. This short story is clearly the beginning of a book for them. There is a lot to unpack with the both of them and I’m looking forward to seeing how it all unravels.

Coming out as bisexual has certainly caused some problems for Jackson. His girlfriend immediately assumed that meant he would cheat on her right away so she dumped him and he had to move back in with his dad. And his college classmates start bullying him to the point where Jackson is the one that gets in trouble with the school rather than them. And what may be the worst part is that his favorite professor has certainly been treating him less than kind as well. Couldn’t get much worse. Until he realizes that maybe his professor, Isaac, was only acting that way because he was hiding some other feelings. A forbidden student/teacher relationship with some unexpected twists! I was surprised by some of the surprises this short story had. It made the story that much more interesting to read!
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
