The Simple Rules series by Gianni Holmes takes a lighter approach to M/M romance. Each of the three books is built around a self-imposed rule that the main character cannot manage to keep, from avoiding a crush on his doctor to refusing to date his best friend. The series ran from 2021 to 2022.

The titles make the premise clear right away, and Holmes plays the humor and romantic tension of each broken rule for all it is worth. Readers who prefer their M/M romance with a fun, low-angst setup will find a lot to like here.
