But his concern for Will manifests itself as interfering and things take a turn for the worse. He’s not jealous – or so he tells himself. The first blind date doesn’t end well, but then Will meets a man on his own and the two become tight. When Mark senses Will’s unhappiness, he decides his friend needs a boyfriend. In fact they go out so often that people mistake them for being a couple. They banter back and forth (much to their boss’ dismay), and often go out together. A year ago, Will came to work at the same company and the men sit in adjoining cubicles. But Mark is missing something in his life. That his friendship now extends to Isaac speaks to the strength of the bond between the men. Their best friend Mark is still hours away, toiling away in a job he doesn’t enjoy, doing hook-ups that don’t fulfil him, and generally missing the tight relationship he had with his best buddy Carter. At the end of Book 2 of the series, Isaac proposed and Carter accepted with enthusiasm. Isaac and Carter are settled in their lives. It was really well done and I enjoyed it. Overall I can't say anything negative regarding this audiobook. Audio - Michael Pauley was great with Mark, making his personality really shine through. And i kinda wish there was another book or a short story or something with all these guys. This book was a really good addition to the series. He is literally ridiculous and it was amusing to hear his reaction. The absolute funniest part of this book is Marks reaction to realizing his feelings for Will are more than just being friends. Will is Marks new best friend ever since Carter moved away to be with Issac. Mark is completely blindsided by his feelings for Will.

The name of this book 'blindside' is pretty perfect. I was really happy to see we got to meet ALL of Mark in this book, hes not just the goofy guy, but he actually has all kinds of layers to him too.

It was more of a 'story' than I was expecting, which was great. From meeting Mark in the previous books, I thought for sure this book would be a lot lighter and super funny and mostly ridiculous with its comedy, but only parts of this book were. He was initially Carters best friend, but now him and Issac have bonded to become besties' as well. lol We met Mark in the first two books of this series.
