Hi y’all!

Hope you are enjoying the last days of summer. I am ready for school to start. It’s going to be a great year!

I am so excited to share my review of The Pocket Pair by Emma St. Clair! It is just good for my soul to be back in Sheet Cake and finally get Val and Chevy’s story. What a beautiful romance between two of my favorite Sheeters. I stayed up too late really getting into this one and I loved it!

Book Summary: “Do I have feelings for my sister’s best friend? Of course not. That would be stupid, considering my sister once threatened to castrate me if I ever hurt Val. Hurting her is the last thing I want to do, which is all the MORE reason I can’t have feelings for her. Val deserves the world, and I’m NOT the man who can give it to her.

But when Val announces she’s leaving town (and the country), I’m suddenly confronted with some very capital-F Feelings–ones that refuse to stay stuffed down deep where I’ve hidden them for more years than I care to admit. Having her crash in my guest bedroom until she leaves only makes things worse.

Little by little, Val chips away at my defenses, and despite all the solid reasons I have, my resolve starts to crumble. The thing is–none of the circumstances have changed. Val is still planning to leave the country. And I … well, I might have gotten more in touch with my feelings, but I’m still the same man. NOT a man who can promise things like life-long commitment. NOT a man Val can count on. NOT the good guy everyone seems to think I am. If only I could get Val and the rest of this nosy, meddling matchmaking town to believe me–and if my own stubborn heart wasn’t trying to convince me otherwise.

The Pocket Pair is a best friend’s brother, friends to more rom-com set in the fictional small town of Sheet Cake Texas. You’ll find plenty of laughs and sizzling chemistry in this closed door romantic comedy. It’s the third in a series, but can be read as a standalone.”

Chevy and Val’s love story is slow burn and full of sizzling chemistry. The tension while they both try to reign in their feelings is palpable. Their first kiss is EVERYTHING! Chevy’s realization about how he truly feels for Val and the race to tell her is so swoony. I love everything about their relationship. I love how they build each other up and show how they are worthy of love and belonging. I love their kisses all over town. I love their whispered confessions and the little ways they take care of each other. I love when they say I love you for the first time. And that Chevy wants Val to follow her dreams. I love that they are home for each other.
