The story I've been waiting for ever since the beginning of this series! Fallon and Gage weren't what I was expecting, but gosh, they were beautiful!
From the Catching You blurb:
“Do you think I could make a real living out of punching people’s exes? Hear me out…what if they really, really deserved it?”
Gage supposes it’s a fair question, even if he doesn’t mean it. Granted, the pain and trauma he’s been living with for the past year has changed him, but that’s not the kind of person he wants to be.
And that much is obvious when Gage pragmatically doesn’t ice out his new neighbor who also happens to be the guy that ghosted him for three months after their one night together.
But Gage can’t really blame Fallon for going silent. He’s dealing with as much as Gage is. In fact, as Gage comes to learn, Fallon has a lot more on his plate than a crappy ex. He’s about to become a dad, and he’s doing it completely alone.
Gage can’t seem to help himself when he offers to step in and help. And it’s not just the fact that he’s a firefighter trained to play hero. There’s something about Fallon that Gage can’t get enough of. Something that doesn’t just make him want to keep running after the other man.
He also wants to catch him.
To love him.
To be loved back.
And to turn their chaotic lives into something like a happily ever after.
Catching You is the eighth and final book of the single dads series, Words We Never Said. It’s a friends with benefits romance that contains a firefighter in pain trying to find his way again, a nerdy photographer who has no idea what to do when his life is turned upside down, punching people who deserve it, naming cockroaches after your exes and feeding them to zoo chameleons, building a family, accidentally falling in love, and a feet-kicking, toe-curling happily ever after.
Angels' review:
Ever since the first book in this series released I have been wanting Gage's story. At first it was hinted at that he might end up with Lucas, but then we learned things wouldn't have worked out between them. We got to see Lucas get his happily ever after with Frankie, and now we finally got to see Gage get his happily ever after.
Gage and Fallon aren't a couple I was expecting to end up together, but wow, they make a great team. Both men have been through a lot, have seen there fair share of trauma, have dealt with the ups and downs life has thrown at them, but they've both come out on the other side different, but stronger. Especially after they meet each other and let one another in they become stronger and more unified together, which I loved seeing.
I absolutely adore EM's ability to write such relatable and realistic characters, they are 'messy', and I think some might say broken, but they are so much more beautiful and relatable because of those things. I thought the pacing was as fantastic as always, the story and the characters immediately immersed me back into the world of Single Dad's finding their people. The romance between Gage and Fallon was so good! You could feel the connection those two had with one another, I think some might feel as if their relationship progressed too quickly. But I don't think so, I think their relationship happened exactly as it was supposed to.
I thought EM did a really great job with writing Fallon's character, and I thought the way in which they wrote about Fallon's pregnancy was in a respectful way and well written. I loved seeing past characters making appearances one more. I also really loved how Lucas and Gage were still there for each other and continued to be each other's rocks even though their relationship has shifted some after they both found their partners.
This book was very bittersweet for me, as much as I loved this book, and this incredible series, I am so sad that this series is now over. This series, these characters, were absolutely magical and were filled with hope, found family, and love. Please read this amazing book, better yet, read this whole series. It'll be worth it!
