Charlie is on the path to self destruction. One night after a night out he is mugged, beaten and left for dead. Could this be his second chance at life?
Amy_tbs' Review:
For All It's Worth was a perfectly executed best friends to lovers, all the characters were dimensional and excellently developed. With each adding to the the story line and the serious topics that took place within it. There were topic's and issues from assault, addiction, alcoholism, sexualities, trauma, PTSD, disabilities, infidelity, toxic and dysfunctional relationships. Charlie and Max faced many obstacles in their path and had many boundaries to set and overcome. Their story was so heartfelt and I was rooting for them all along.
I loved all the progression made in the book and all the characters. I hope Henry get's his own book I absolutely adore the big guy.

KjnRose's Review:
Charlie finds second chance at love and life. Another wonderful book by Jax Stuart, I loved this one even more than the first. There were great characters with wonderful character buildup. It was a true second chance story, not just for their relationship, but also for Charlie with his life.

Heather's Review:
Can you be unbiased and love a book when you've got a character modeled after you? I found out for the first time that the answer is yes... and yes, Jax took the time to learn about why I'm passionate about LGBTQ2IA+ topics and included that too...
But to focus on the rest of the story and not my 5 minutes of fame, Charlie and Max are an amazing friends to lovers, second chance romance story and Charlie himself is the definition of second chances... with a trigger warning for alcoholism, this book doesn't deep dive into Charlie's recovery, but it does focus enough to give you a good sense of who he is and how he handles the obstacles he has to overcome... and Max has his own demons to face and work through... and they do it beautifully together...
As with the first book in the series, For All It's Worth is well paced, well written and tells such a compelling story that you'll walk away with a book hangover and a cry for Henry's story... and I'm sorry, not sorry for suggesting to Jax that Henry's HEA be the last book in the series... because I'm a masochist apparently...
While reading So Worth More is so worth it, if you don't love the storyline for that one, you can read For All It's Worth as a standalone, but you will not only be missing out on Will and Andy's love story, but you'll also miss the start of Henry's relationship angst... and you'll be curious enough after reading this book to go back...
