REVIEW: Catching You by EM Lindsey (Words We Never Said #8)

  CATCHING YOU Words We Never Said - Book Eight by EM Lindsey Release Date: February 3, 2026 Review Oh my, I cried. A lot. But it was the cathartic kind of crying, where you feel lighter in the end. Gage and Fallon are both carrying a lot on their shoulders. Pain, anger, guilt, and identity struggles.  Their personal stories are vastly different, but there are connections that help them understand each other. And it’s beautiful. Big and beautiful. Though this is heavy in many ways, it also felt hopeful and flirty, and like sinking into a nest of weighted blankets. Truly loved having these two find themselves and love together. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis “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 h...

LOL This is a fun story, with a classic English teacher and jock coach stuck sharing one bed on the away trip. It may sound done, but MA Wardell always brings fresh life, humour and love to any story. And boy, can he write naughty bits!! *fans self* You won’t regret picking this one up. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis One hotel room. One bed. Zero chance of keeping it professional. Harry When I agreed to chaperone the boys’ hockey team, I thought my biggest challenge would be pretending to understand the rules—not being stuck sharing a hotel room with Darius Hill. The hockey coach. The human whistle. The man who’s made my Mondays miserable for years. But somewhere between the bus ride, the tense semifinal, and one very small bed, I start to realize the worst part of Darius Hall might ...
