The Pocket Pair

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.
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.
