Worlds Collide
Wolf
I’m damaged, I’m gruff, I’m mean to almost everyone, but there’s no way I can change that, right? I accept it since it’s the way I’ve always been. It fits my rock star persona and it’s the perfect counterpart to the other half of my band—my sunshiny brother.
But when I meet CJ everything inside me spins out of control.
He’s straight—definitely straight as far as all of his friends know—so why is he attacking me with his mouth the first time we’re alone?
Turns out I probably know a lot less about CJ than I thought.
CJ
I’m finally ready to put my plan to figure out who I am into motion.
Step one: get my inheritance.
Step two: change my awful name.
Step three: explore my bisexuality with the hottest man I’ve ever met.
That’s as far as I’ve gotten, and when I attempt to check off number three, I hit a roadblock—or cockblock as it were—a certain grumpy someone won’t let me.
I don’t understand Wolf and I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in that, but I want to. More than anything I want to be the one he depends on.
Now if he can just stop running away from me…
Will I be able to convince the angry rockstar that he can move forward with me without having to change a single thing about himself?
Worlds Collide is the story of two guys who have everything except their life together. It's also a Contemporary MM Rockstar/Billionaire Romance, and Book 6 in the Fan Service Series. It would be best enjoyed by reading the series in order or at the very least read AFTER Know Me See Me (Fan Service #4), this book is considered interconnected.
It has no cliffhangers and ends in a HEA. There are a lot of very gay things happening inside, so if that's not for you, then this book isn't either. If it is, then welcome to the mostly low-angst world of the Fan Service Series, I'm thrilled to have you and hope you enjoy this journey.

Favourite couple in the series. Favourite book in the series. Favourite character in the series! (Wolfie)
I loved Wolf and CJ's journey so, so much. I cried, I laughed, my heart hurt, and I was just so happy that they got their hard fought for HEA.
Wolf's guilt and struggles to not be co-dependent with his brother were really heartbreaking to read, especially when he hits rock bottom with his alcoholism. It was so sad seeing everything he trying to deal with, and the way he wanted CJ so much but knew it wasn't healthy at that time.
CJ was just the sweetest but I loved how he stood up to Wolf, and how he joked around with Wolf. He was the perfect balance to Wolf's growly personality. I do wish we'd seen CJ happier with everything else in his life though, and I wish we'd gotten a bit more of these guys finally happily together, but I've already read the last book and I'm happy with where the series ended.
I did enjoy that there was the first big rift in the wider friendship group though, and that everyone kind of had to step back and take a look at themselves and the bigger picture. It had felt too good to be true for most of the series, so to see the character's dealing with a conflict that had a ripple effect through so many of them was really refreshing to see.
Excited to go on to the hockey series next!

December 14, 2024
A beautiful story about finding yourself and fighting addiction (alcoholism). And fighting for love.
Much respect to the struggles depicted and lessons learned and given. This deals with a massively important theme, but it is a romance novel. And as such I will rate it.
As I've said before, I love the world Hinsel Meyer has created. the friendships and families are a model to follow and this book was no less, but...
I felt there was more time that our MCs spent apart than what their actual love warranted. Instalove you say? I'm not so sure, yes they began by crushing on each other from a far and for a long time....but all consuming love? Blink and you missed it. At least for me. But I don't really enjoy pining so there's that. I understand the - " I'm staying away from you until I find myself and become who I should be (for you)"-, to a point. I think they were still strangers even very close up to the epilogue. I feel they needed to stand up for each other, with each other more and not just at the very end.
That all said I'm only deducting one star because this was still a very heartfelt and gorgeous story.

I was waiting for Wolf's story since reading about him and his brother in Know Me See Me. The other half of the Storm brothers is a very beautiful but tormented soul: he has so much love inside him, for his brother, his best friend, his family, but the pain of the past prevented him from being happy. Sadness, regret and grief have haunted his life for a very long time.
Thankfully, CJ entered his life and showed him how good can be to let himself being loved and cherished.
Wolf's recovery is a long painful and difficult journey and it will involve his relationship with Hawk too: for the first time, the brothers will have to seriously deal with their codependency.
Like I said, it's not an easy journey, but it was so worth it: Wolf will finally be able to breathe and live, to be himself, to fall in love with music again, to give himself a real chance to be happy.
I especially loved how he made peace with his mom's songs: they still made him a little sad, but th grief wasn't overwhelming anymore and he could feel his mother's love without being devastated.
CJ is such a precious man: despite his awful family and all the challenges he had to face, he was still a steady presence in Wolf's life and he supported him, even in the most difficult times.
What prevented me from giving 5 full stars:
Derek and Wolf's friendship is something beautiful, but it was affected by the events and the changes in their life. I hope that in the next book we'll get to see them being best friends again.
I'm not above begging the author to let them have a little space in the next book.
I can't wait for Carter to have his own story but I'm also a little sad that his book will be the final of the series.
Totally recommended (but read Know Me See Me first, since Wolf's story is very intertwined with Hawk's).

ARC REVIEW
4.5🌟
This exceeded my expectation because I honestly didn’t expect to enjoy this as much as I did and I didn’t expect it to turn out to be so good.
I fell in love with Wolf and Cj before I knew what was happening and absolutely adored them both but honestly CJ was my baby.
Wolf is a music superstar struggling with his alcohol addiction, trying his darnest to stay sober but a lot of things keep pulling him back. And we have CJ who is a closeted bi and has had to keep that part of himself a secret for almost all his life. He’s had his eyes set on Wolf for a very long time and he took the chance to get the man he’s always wanted the minute the opportunity appeared before him.
This was angsty at best, not over the top angsty but in a way that made sense because Wolf was struggling a lot and he needed time to get better for himself and for CJ.
I loved the way the topic of Wolf’s addiction was handled in this and how it wasn’t just glossed over and made to look like something that would magically go away.
Loved the build of their relationship, their connection, the pinning and how they both secretly just wanted each other so much.
This was honestly a really good story.🥰

Worlds Collide by Hinsel Meyer is the 6th book in her Fan Services series. I highly suggest that you read the other books first to understand the myriad of characters and their stories that lead to this one. It is the very complicated and conflicted story of two men, one a country rock star and the other a billionaire studying to be a pediatric surgeon who had troubling childhoods that color much of what they do and hinder their way to finding love together. Wolf Storm is part of the country rock band The Storm together with his brother Hawk. They grew up with a horrendous event in their early childhoods that have led Wolf to feel guilty and not worthy of happiness. It also led to being codependent with his brother. Then he found out that alcohol could deaden those feelings and he became an addict. It took another nasty event to lead him to rehab and he is now 6 months sober at the beginning of the story. CJ Sounders is the son of very wealthy parents who want his grandfather’s trust fund. They only had him because he could be the heir and they left him alone during his childhood and were horrible parents to him, never showing him any affection or love. When his grandfather dies, CJ takes over the trust fund and starts changing it to suit his own desires and leave his parents nothing. He has 3 goals: get the money and do good with it, change his name, and start acting on his attraction to men. Both Wolf and CJ are in the same friend group and CJ has had a crush on him for a long time and Wolf is the one he wants to experiment with. Wolf is gruff and grumpy and struggling with being sober but he is attracted to CJ and they finally get together with a hot love scene. But then Wolf leaves because he isn’t supposed to be in a relationship for a year after becoming sober and CJ is left feeling bereft. He also gets suspended from his residency for 3 months because the paparazzi caught him kissing Wolf and made a big deal out of it and that bled into his work at the hospital. Then they meet again and go to Italy. It seems like everything is just starting to click when something happens, whether it is with CJ’s wealth or his horrible parents, or Wolf’s problems with addiction, his codependent relationship with his brother, or his feelings of low self-worth, and Boom! They are back to the beginning, having to start over and learn to trust each other if they are going to be together. Wolf and Hawk have a huge blow up and he heads back to rehab and starts to face everything that has brought him to this place. He does tell CJ that he will come back to woo him after a year if he’s still single but he has to work on himself before he can be what he wants to be for CJ. The rest of the story goes over what the two men are doing and feeling during that year as well as Wolf and Hawk setting limits for each other to end their codependency and Wolf starting to get over the guilt he felt from their childhood with lots of therapy, moving away to New York from their ranch in California, and learning to be happy again. Meanwhile CJ is also working on himself during his suspension, being with friends, and pining for Wolf. When the year ends Wolf shows up, they talk, have some more hot love scenes, and are on their way to being in a good relationship that makes them both happy, especially when they declare their love for each other. I highly recommend this book. It is quite emotional, especially for Wolf and the journey he has to go on to sobriety. It is hard of CJ when he keeps leaving him but he realizes he loves Wolf and wants to be with him. He also had a difficult but entitled life with his parents dictating everything he had to do in order to get the trust but he won in the end, not only over them but also in winning Wolf. It was great to see characters from other stories in the series and what they have been going through as well as how their lives affect Wolf and CJ. I highly recommend this book, especially if you like angsty stories about two men who have been through a lot in their lives and have to fight to figure out how to be their best selves so they can be what each other needs as they fall in love.

The moment Hinsel Meyer won me over forevermore—when her MC thinks this:
“Like he said in the stupid-ass note, he warned me about this. So I’m going to believe him.”
THANK YOU AUTHOR for an MC who, when the other MC tells him, I’m no good for anyone, and you can tell people what an asshole I am, the MC BELIEVES HIM! (and yes, I’m midway through a different book by a different author in which an MC keeps saying he’s shit, but it seems to be an excuse to keep being shitty…and I kept wanting the other MC to kick him to the curb until he stopped using “I’m so shit” as an excuse for being shit…but no, let's just enable him to keep being shitty...!)
Also, I enjoyed this read quite a lot. It’s not a 5-star the way the author’s unexpected gem of a read Try to Fly was for me, it didn’t quite reach that level, but, I would re-read it.
It’s got difficult themes, TW for alcoholism and co-dependence, but, while I am NOT an expert, I feel maybe the author is, because the way addiction is handled in the book rang true and honest, and worked well for believability in how the two came together, could not stay together, but were able to truly work on things and be together in the end. One MC is working through his alcohol addiction as part of the story, and it doesn’t become maudlin or a downer.
So, rock star-billionaire romance, and that part was kind of unbelievable in ways, or, didn’t really impact them as I think it might, they’re both walking around and only one has a bodyguard but never seems to get mobbed when he’s out and about, and the other is working in a hospital without any protection or qualm. Just two “ordinary” guys going about their lives, with majorly f’d up pasts and dealing with their present. Both have severe parental trauma and baggage they need to face and work through, and that felt real too—therapy being included was authentic and appreciated.
The book isn’t intended as a stand-alone; it’s book 6 in a connected-world series, but…confession time…I read it on its own, not knowing any of the other characters, and I wasn’t confused. I wouldn’t say it stands alone, but, I was fine with that. I just focused on my two guys—CJ the billionaire who’s giving away all the evil money to great causes, and Wolf the music star who is fooling himself that he’s doing okay with his alcoholism after going through rehab. They meet with a lot of tension (CJ’s had a LONG-time crush, Wolf thinks he’s an irritating rich boy; CJ is sunny, Wolf is the grumpiest of grumps in the group), but CJ wants Wolf to be the man he finally experiences his bisexuality with…and things escalate from there.
Wolf isn’t mentally in a place to handle a relationship. CJ’s got external drama from evil disgruntled parents. Wolf has a lot of knee-jerk reactions related to alcoholism and rages at CJ without giving CJ a chance to defend himself. The jumping to conclusions and miscommunication in this instance felt realistic rather than contrived. Together, they’re incendiary and terrible, and yet, you feel like they could be fantastic together if only…if only.
Secondary characters add supportive subplots of relationship drama to work through, and I’m sure for those continuing with the series add a lot of welcome cameos of the friend group.
So, a worthwhile journey, with two complex and layered MCs, in a rich-world bubble, but, they still felt authentic, and I enjoyed reading their love story.
HEA, hard-won, grumpy-sunshine, rock star-billionaire, alcoholism/relapse/recovery. Realistic timing for that, too, and again I appreciated that. No cheating or others in any way, and no annoying mentions of previous partners, it was just these two, all in for each other, all the way, my favorite kind of romance. Recommended, and I’ll be going back for the entire series.

Recovery is hard, especially when you are famous because everyone thinks your life is their business. Wolf is trying, but it is increasingly difficult when he no longer has the ability to turn to his best friend and his brother treats him like he is fragile. When he learns that the guy he had more than one dirty thought about is not as straight as he thought, and there are a lot of feelings when it comes to CJ, he realizes he might be on the path to recovery after all.
CJ wants to explore what is between him and Wolf, but before that can happen, Wolf has to really figure things out and be his best self before he can be something for someone else. So he either waits or gives up on the guy he really wants.
OPINION: There is a lot of discussion about recovery and co-dependency in this story. Make sure you read the author’s notes about what you are reading in case you feel like you might be triggered. That being said… Hinsel Meyer should include tissues with all of their books because each of them hits me right in the feels. This is another emotionally charged story with some amazing characters. Wolf is struggling, and you are right there with him the whole time, cheering him and hoping he doesn’t fall too far. Your heart aches with his mistakes. More than once, I just wanted to shake him and tell him to wake up. Even though I cried through the story, I loved the whole thing and recommended all of the books this series (okay, a few I haven’t finished but will) write. There is a ton of emotion, and you can’t help but want to find out how their story turns out. You won’t be disappointed in this story it’s a wonderful romance of two people figuring out what their love story will look like.

This was a beautiful and emotional read, having me in tears so many times as I followed the love story of rockstar Wolfie and billionaire CJ on the rocky road to their HEA. Both men were damaged by their childhoods, Wolf suffering from guilt and believing he was unlovable, CJ raised by unloving parents, wanting attention from someone he could love. Their relationship wasn’t easy and was complicated by destructive self-talk, friends and family, but both kept being drawn back to each other no matter how difficult it was between times. Wolf’s addiction was handled realistically and honestly, baring all the pain and anguish suffered not only by the addict, but also the family and friends around them. There were highs and lows, lots of self-reflection and self-realization for both characters, and a wide range of support from a steadfast core group of friends and found family. The supporting cast of characters is a crazy patchwork of interwoven relationships that are hard to keep track of, helped out by the character glossary at the beginning of the book, and reading the previous books in the series is also helpful to keep people and relationships straight. The book is told from a dual point of view so we have lots of CJ’s and Wolf’s thoughts and words as the reader gains more insight into these two complicated men. The HEA was long in coming, but was well-deserved and well-earned. There are raw emotions shared, tender romantic moments, steadfast friendships, despicable villains, and souls bared as the reader is quickly drawn in, then pulled along without letting go until the final page for an engaging and compelling read.
I received an ARC from the author, and this is my voluntary review.

WOLF AND CJ’S WORLDS COLLIDE!💕
Oh finally we get Wolfs story in book 6 so if you have not read book 4 - Know Me See Me - do so now as these two books are intertwined!
This was by far the best book of the series! Addiction, Co- dependency and Parental neglect was depicted beautifully!
Wolf Storm is broken, damaged and a slave to alcohol and guilt and this is where he finally gets sober and finds his HEA but it was not easy but hard earned!
“As far as I’m concerned, CJ Sounders is mine, and when the time comes, I’m going to do everything in my power to show him how good we can be together.”
CJ Sounders paediatric surgeon resident and billionaire philanthropist runs in the same friend circle as Wolf Storm and as wedding after wedding after wedding takes place in their friend circle it is plain to see that their worlds were always meant to collide…
I laughed,and I cried with these two characters and their antics, the way growly Wolf became sweet, gentle Max (a nickname CJ gave him) and CJ became LRB- Little Rich Boy- sassy and sweet!
The co-dependency of Hawk, Wolf and Derek (Wolf’s best friend and Hawk’s husband) forms a major part of the storyline with heartfelt and angsty moments!
Overall we get more of the other characters making appearances ( their weddings) and a bit more of Carter who will round off the series sigh…
I voluntarily received an ARC from GRR for an honest non biased review.

“As far as I’m concerned, CJ Sounders is mine, and when the time comes, I’m going to do everything in my power to show him how good we can be together.”
CJ Sounders paediatric surgeon resident and billionaire philanthropist runs in the same friend circle as Wolf Storm and as wedding after wedding after wedding takes place in their friend circle it is plain to see that their worlds were always meant to collide…
I laughed,and I cried with these two characters and their antics, the way growly Wolf became sweet, gentle Max (a nickname CJ gave him) and CJ became LRB- Little Rich Boy- sassy and sweet!
The co-dependency of Hawk, Wolf and Derek (Wolf’s best friend and Hawk’s husband) forms a major part of the storyline with heartfelt and angsty moments!
Overall we get more of the other characters making appearances ( their weddings) and a bit more of Carter who will round off the series sigh…
I voluntarily received an ARC from GRR for an honest non biased review.

I knew Wolf would tear at my heartstrings
You should read Know Me See Me before reading Worlds Collide because it's Hawk's story with Derek (Wolf's brother and their best friend). Wolf plays a major part in their story, just as Hawk does in this, and the background is important for better understanding.
I felt so bad for Wolf in Know Me See Me, finding out what happened in the brothers' past with their family and how it still affected them every day. Wolf was in a much worse place than Hawk and I desperately wanted to see him at peace, happy and loved, after Hawk found his own HEA.
CJ has appeared briefly before but he was a mystery, and I was so pleased when Hinsel said he was finally going to tell us his story. I was even happier that it was with Hawk, as they were both loners within the large group of found family, isolated while surrounded with love.
Wolf and CJ's love story wasn't all sunshine and flowers, with CJ's family the reason his life wasn't his own. Wolf had a lot of work to do on himself and it wasn't easy. Hinsel treated his addiction very respectfully but didn't sugarcoat how much it affected his whole life and his relationships with family and friends.
I loved their whole story and their hard-won HEA. I loved seeing all the usual suspects of the large friend group appear. This was just the most satisfying of all Hinsel's novels so far, I think, and now I need Carter's HEA, even though I'm sad his book will conclude the Fan Service series.

This book sure put me through the emotional wringer! Wolf goes through SO MUCH, it's hard to witness (and some of this just bring stuff up personally for me) - processing grief, trying to get sober....so much. Precious CJ has also been through a lot growing up - it's kind of amazing, really, that he has so much emotional fortitude...but thank goodness because in the end, he is able to support Wolf so beautifully. Two boys, each with horrible childhoods, are able to each work on themselves and grow in order to come together in love. But before that point - there is SO MUCH STRUGGLE on so many levels, but in the end it is worth it for them and for the reader because the payoff is everything.
Hawk and Wolf go through so much too - and Derek too. Families issues are hard, I know, especially families were there is abuse, tragedy, and alcoholism and especially where the children are left to bear the brunt of all that and both Hawk & Wolf definitely do...but things get worked out.
Anyway...this book is so good, even if this review is a little all over the place because of my personal stuff!!! And while yes, Worlds Collide is a very emotional book, there are also some easier moments, lots of cameos with characters from earlier books, and also some great smut ;) Looking forward to Carter's story next.

"When I’m with CJ I feel...well, good. And I don’t feel that way about anything these days. " - Wolf
"This man is the most stubborn, infuriating, broken, and fucking annoying person on the planet." - CJ
Wolf is an addict, and it is important to read Know Me See Me, fan service book 4 BEFORE this book, because it's about Hawk (Wolf's brother) & Derek. Hawk and Wolf have a codependent relationship, and they are trying to find a healthier way of communicating with each other, that takes a lot of time, and it is important that you know both their stories and thought process, they talked about their unhealthy behavior in therapy, Hawk also goes to a therapist in his own book. There was also a big thing that happened with Wolf what was talked a lot about in this book. Check the trigger warnings.
“You are not allowed to think our parents did what they did just because you acted like a normal child.” - Hawk
I really loved this book and the story about CJ and Wolf, it was a different, complicated and frustrating but also beautiful way that they ended up with each other. They both been through a lot, but they made it work, and they are good for each other. They just have to keep talking and asking for help when they need it.
I'm so proud of Hinsel for writing it in this way, very respectful. I received an ARC copy of this book.

Thank you, Hinsel Meyer, for this ARC. This review is entirely my own.
Hinsel Meyer has done it again!!!! I have been looking for a Wolf and CJs story, and this exceeded all the expectations.
The way Wolf's addiction was handled, his thoughts and feelings of not deserving and worthlessness was handled with so much respect and shows what an addict goes through. This author did not hold back.
Knowing what CJ had gone through and what he had to put up with shows how strong he is and why he is the perfect partner for Wolf.
This story made me laugh, I cried and the last few chapters had me cheering. Wolf and CJs story makes you believe in love again. This story was angsty but in between those moments of angst was heart warming, wrap in a blanket cuddly feeling that moments that brought this story to life. This story will stick with me for a long time and I am completely OK with that.
This is NOT a standalone. To be able to understand what happened and brought these characters to where they are, read Derek and Hawks' story, Know Me See Me, first. These brothers are codependent AF and besides, you can't have Hawk without Wolf. It's just wrong. Plus...more of this world and characters is good for the soul.

This story is truly heartwarming. The book pulls you in immediately. It has a roughness about it in the form of Wolf and a sweetness about it that CJ adds. Together they blend into the perfect amount of warmth, hostility and finally happiness that is inspiring. Their journey has its bumps and bruises but it also has a force to be reckoned with. If it’s worth having and worth its salt then it’s worth fighting for and that’s another thing we take away from this love story. Disappointments are inevitable but CJ and Wolf keep pulling up their bootstraps and fighting. Recovery of any kind takes support and encouragement, it also takes dedication and ownership and that’s another thing I admire about this story. It has a sense of reality in the idea that life and relationships have their own sets of struggles but in the end it’s so worth the effort because, as we see here, the comfort of having your person through thick and thin just makes the world a better place. Well don’t to this author! I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.

In Hinsel's latest, it's Wolf's turn. You really should read Hawk and Derek's book first for background, but Wolf and CJ have a lot of issues to work out so there is lot's of angst. CJ with his background and parents - Wolf with the whole world it seems like, really stemming from childhood, his brother, no friends, etc. His cross to bear is his creative talent, pressure and addiction, trauma and how to be the man CJ deserves. These two are each other's forever in sickness and in health. This was one of Hinsel's most emotional, searching for control and mental health books. That's saying a lot because all of her books are emotional and your heart hurts for the pain they all suffer through to get to the other side. Kudos to CJ for his patience and for waiting for the man he wants and to Wolf for dealing with his issues, not just for CJ but for himself, also. I loved these two and can't imagine a world without Hinsel's characters. You swear they are real people with real issues, handled in a sensitive way. I received a copy of this book and this is my honest opinion.

Curmudgeon meets seemingly ultra-happy guy; fireworks commence
Wolf is such a tragic figure. At 33yo he has fame and fortune, needs a bodyguard to protect him from crazy fans, but inside he doesn’t feel worthy of any of it! Especially so during a period of time when he attends multiple weddings, one of which was for his beloved brother Hawk. Wolf wants somebody to care for his curmudgeon a**. He has been sober for six months. What a challenge it has been too! He meets at one of the weddings a friend of a friend, 28yo CJ Sounders. There is attraction but CJ is straight. Right? Maybe not so much…
There is humor, tragedy, revelation and resolution. This was a well-written follow-up to “Know Me See Me” by Meyer where Derek meets Hawk. In that book we meet Wolf and see his self-destructive behavior. In this book he is trying so hard. You will be in his corner too if you read this book, which I highly recommend. There are trigger warnings so be aware. I personally loved it. I volunteered to review an ARC of this book.

I loved this book.
Wolf, one part of the Strom rock band, is an acholic with a traumatic past and lots of guilt. He is feeling lost, unwanted and unsure of where he fits in his brothers life now that he is married (read more about Hawk's story Know Me See Me). The way Wolf's addiction is handled with care and understanding is so important. His pain, anger, and desperation are captured in a way that makes you understand what an addict might go through.
CJ appears to have his life together, he is a doctor, has lots of friends and just seems perfect. Little does Wolf know that CJ has his own traumatic past.
Seeing them understand each other and knowing what they go through makes their love story so powerful. This book is angsty, funny and sad. I laughed and cried throughout this book.

Just....wow. I was worried I was going to miss the sports aspect from this book since that's what I'm used to reading from Meyer. But this story was so gritty and complex, and it had more than enough to keep my attention. Plus, these guys are all so close and interconnected we got to see a bunch of our favorite athletes anyway.
This is definitely a higher angst book for Meyer, and it handles some pretty intense and sensitive subjects. I would definitely recommend looking at trigger warnings, and this story can't be read as a stand alone. But it was all well written, and I loved that the characters, especially Wolf, got help and improved themselves without changing their core personality.
I am so glad I took a chance on the debut novel from this author last June. I love the world and the amazing group of friends she's created. I never want this books to end and am always eager for the next story!

I love this series, it has absolutely some of the best sports world building I’ve ever come across. The characters are also exceptional, flawed, and interesting. I’ve been interested in Wolf since reading Know Me See Me, he was clearly struggling and in a bad place. A traumatic childhood can do that to a guy. I really loved the focus on healing his very complicated relationship with his brother Hawk. This was such an absorbing read, CJ and Wolf have a deep connection, it felt authentic despite all the roadblocks between them and the chance for an HEA. This was a pretty intense and drama filled read, I loved the big messy emotions, the complex relationships, and how Wolf finally finds some peace and happiness. CJ was also amazing and I loved that he fought for what he wanted, that it worked out is maybe a little bit of a miracle. I loved this a bunch!

Thank you, Hinsel for my copy of Worlds Collide. This is the 6th book in the Fan Service series, but all of Hinsel's books are interconnected. I strongly recommend reading them all in order. But definitely read Know Me See Me which is Hawk & Derek's story first.
This was an emotional read with a hard-earned HEA. The use of Dual POV helped the reader learn more about Wolf & CJ then the surface knowledge each other knew especially initially. This is another beautiful written story set in Hinsels interconnected world and I love getting updates on some of my favourites from past books.

I feel hard for this wonderful written book. It has two fantastic, yet broken main characters, each dealing with their own issues. The writing was authentic and powerful. If you are looking for a nice complex love story, this one is for you. I would take heed of the authors note to read this series in order (each book is a winner) or at least read after books four due to connections. It is the intensity and tenacity of the characters, especially CJ, that made me love this book. He was so determined to win over grumpy Wolf, and he did. These two men are like missing puzzle pieces that complement one another. A great read that continues to make this one of my favorite series. I did receive an ARC and leave this honest review.

Excellent! Wolf, is a grumpy, mean rockstar and proud of it. He wears his personality like a cloak of honor, and is going on 6 months sober. He is dragging some heavy baggage and feels he doesn't fit in with the group of friends. He has reactions to CJ but thinks he's straight, so there's that. CJ is a doctor entering his residency. He is trailing a world of complexities involving his family and money. He also has a crush on Wolf. This is a strong story about owning one's self, being true to one's self and going after what you want. Good flow, great storyline. Wolf and CJ are amazing men. The friends are absolutely fun and supportive. Great cover art! Well done! I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Welp...that was an emotional heavy hitter!! I'm going to be quick and spoiler free with this review but that doesn't mean that this book doesn't deserve kudos where kudos are due. This story was fantastic, as a matter of fact this build has been my favorite yet in this series. I would strongly suggest reading the previous books before diving into this because it's very important to get the bigger picture. Let's talk about these two broken men who worked their ass*s off to get their HEA!!! I 100% cried like a baby in parts and cried happy tears at the end!!! That's all I'm going to say...please do yourself a favor and read this series!!

Oh boy, this book was rough for a little while, emotionally. But that just made it even better when my heart got put back together. I was so proud of Wolf for standing up for himself and doing what he needed to do for his recovery, and his mental health. Especially because it wasn’t easy, but he knew it was worth it. I thought Wolf would be my favorite character, and don’t get me wrong, he’s amazing. But CJ was so sweet, precious, understanding, and just all around wonderful. I absolutely adored him. This book is a fantastic installment in the series, and I’ll definitely be rereading it more than once.

Broken And Healed
Wolf and CJ were an amazing couple. They had both had rough beginnings to life in very different ways. Both were a little broken inside and truly needed to heal before their relationship could thrive. This was a bit harder book to read just because I know the struggles with addiction from watching family members struggle through it. While it was hard at some points, it is a beautifully written story that is very realistic. I loved watching Wolf's journey and how seriously he took healing and recovery after his relapse. CJ struggled through a year apart but knew that was what Wolf needed. I loved this story so much.

This is another great addition to the fan service series, I’ve been looking forward to Wolf and Cj’s stories and it’s even better that they get one together, it is definitely better to read the series in order to get the best from it but for this book Worlds collide, I would say you’d definitely need to read book four Know me see me first as they are interconnected. Wolf and Cj’s story is a hard emotional read in parts and covers some hard topics please check trigger warnings, but it is definitely worth the read to see them battle their way through to get their Hea. Can’t wait to read Carter’s story next.

This series just keeps delivering and in the best way. I did not expect to get all the heart and gut wrenching history and drama that came with this.
And to think, the "little rich boy" CJ, had such a jumbled and tumultuous past with his only family. It meshes so well with all we knew and all we continue to learn about Wolf.
I'm sure there is some place else this series can go but for the life of me I'm stuck. I'm gonna sit and ruminate with this one while Meyer decides for me.
I trust her decision making skills on this.

Life was tough for both Wolf and CJ and both of them had their personal challenges to work through on their way to one another. Wolf came from a really dysfunctional family situation and it truly damaged him and left him broken. CJ, having had his own issues, was likely a good match for him. And it was so good to read their story and watch them make it to the other side of their journey together. Theirs was a hard won HEA. This is such a good series and this one was emotional but left me feeling so good for the guys!

Wow, just wow.
I knew Wolfs book would be hard, but honestly I loved how it was written. I loved that Wolf finally let people know how he felt, how he stopped hiding. I wasnt overly happy at the pedalstal he put CJ on, but I get why he did.
As for CJ, he hid so much of himself... yes due to his parents and their lack of love. But he didnt accept that the family he looked up to wanted to add him to the fold. I think his past held its own trauma, and when Wolf took time to sort himself, CJ became reflective of his life too.
