Catching Carly
by Emma Hart
You can't hook up with your best friend's brother and just expect to forget to ever happened, especially when you can't get the guy out of your head, or life.
Carly is a little bummed now that her two best friends are finally in a relationship. Sure, she's happy for them, but she's suddenly become the third wheel. If being a lonely third wheel wasn't bad enough, Carly didn't anticipate Zeke Elliot, her best friend's brother, annoyingly pushing his way into her life. And it probably has something to do with the fact that they hooked up a month ago and Carly has regretted it ever since. Except it's a hook up she's very tempted to revisit. Too bad Zeke has been annoying her their entire lives and he's also off-limits being her best friends brother. It seems someone behind the scenes is pulling the puppet strings to get them together, and despite Carly's best efforts, it's kinda working.
After reading the first book in the duology, following Carly's two best friends Brooke and Cain, I was very excited for this book as we kind of got a glimpse at to who Carly's love interest would be throughout Brooke's story. Like Brooke, Carly is such a fun character to follow, and also very relatable. It's actually great to read a story about a character that's normal with a tonne of flaws, instead of those "perfect" main characters you get in the likes of film and television.
Carly and Zeke's road to a relationship with fun, mainly due to the situations they end up in together - it's very rom-com and you can totally imagine these playing out on the big screen. As a rom-com fan I thoroughly enjoyed this aspect of the story.
Coming off the back of the first book, this was a great read. Like with all companion novels, I loved seeing Cain and Brooke's relationship continue to play out in the background, as well as making comments on Carly's relationship with Zeke - it's all fun and games when banter is involved.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - Emma Hart writes fantastic contemporary romances with a good mix of comedy and steamy scenes to keep you invested in these character's lives. If my constant reviewing of her books (she has a lot and they are so good, so of course I'm going to binge all her stuff), hasn't convinced you to pick up her books, I don't know what your doing with your life - get out there and start reading! Being Brooke and Catching Carly are a great place to start on your journey down the Emma Hart rabbit hole.
