Three passionate women are about to learn that the difference between “I do” and “I don’t” is a lot more than two little letters…
Birdy Cartwright has a problem. A big problem. Newly engaged to her lover of two years, Birdy is shocked to find herself spending more time thinking about hitting the sheets with her gorgeous new coworker than about waking up next to her bride-to-be. But what’s a crush compared with true love, right?
And who wouldn’t have a crush on athletic optimist Sydney Ramos with that killer smile and a body to match? Sydney wouldn’t have dreamed of flirting with Birdy if she’d known about the engagement—a fact that Birdy somehow “forgot” to mention—but the more their friendship grows, the harder it is to keep from dreaming of a lot more…
But charming and charismatic Brooke Winters is used to getting what she wants—and she wants nothing more than to keep Birdy’s future wrapped around her ring finger. Persistent and persuasive—in addition to being a sexual dynamo—Brooke will use every trick she knows to keep “her” bird from flying the coop.

All of my reviews can be found at The Romantic Reader Blog. 100% dedicated to honest reviews of lesbian romance novels.Birdy Cartwright is a graphic designer for a small printing press. Birdy is fun, easy going, artistic, kind and recently engaged. When the book starts we are introduced to Birdy’s engagement as she is being chastised by her childhood best friend, Saul. You see everyone hates Brooke, Birdy’s new fiance.
Brooke Winters is uber-successful, super attractive and is used to getting her way. Birdy is another piece of the pie she’s determined to get. After waiting years for Birdy to pop the question, Brooke grabs the bull by the horns and takes charge, even though she knows that Birdie has always wanted to do the honors. Once her plan for a fall wedding has been set, let the steamrolling begin.
Sydney Ramos is a newbie to Portland by way of Austin. Planning to just stop in a visit an old college softball teammate as she headed to Seattle she fell in love with the city and its ambiance. Deciding to stay, she gets a job as a screen printer at Birdy’s shop. Hello, new employee! What she didn’t expect to happen was to meet the girl of her dreams, too bad she’s engaged.
So this love triangle is a hot mess. Birdie’s set to marry Brooke, but she doesn’t expect to have those little tingly feelings for her new smoking hot co-worker. So like a moth to a flame she finds a multitude of ways to hang out with Sydney. Does she feel guilty, well yeah, but Birdy and Sydney just can’t help the flirting and longing glances. Sydney is determined to fight for Birdy’s heart, figuring she is pretty much fair game till the white dress and the long aisle. Oh, the tangled wed of emotions.
If you have read Rainbow Cedar by Gerri Hill, you know a love triangle can work to set up an interesting premise, where the couple that walks aways isn’t hated by the reader. This is kind like that but with one major problem. Brooke is set up to be kind of a jerk but you don’t know is she is truly a b**ch with a capital B till the end. Birdie while totally into Sydney, she isn’t 100% over Brooke, yes she’s going through the motions of the wedding but she still loves her. That’s where it gets difficult. Sydney is playing a dangerous game, and you feel for her cause she can’t help herself, you kinda want to slap Birdie in the back of the head and maybe kick her in the shin for dragging Syd along. You also want Syd to get a clue and stop letting her heart get stepped on. Birdie keeps saying no she can’t leave Brooke and what they have but then goes right back to the come-hither looks to Miss Ramos. The vast majority of the book is Birdie being an engaged woman, and she wasn’t trying to get out of it, she was just trying to get over Sydney. When all three characters are at the engagement party and Syd has to watch both Birdie and Brooke make declarations of love to one another, I was pretty much just hoping for Sydney to just bust out her Nike’s run. Save yourself, girl, this is not worth it. Then around the 90% mark, Brooke makes a massive mistake, the straw that broke the camel’s back if you will, and that part while I was glad to see it finally come, I just couldn’t buy that someone so calculating as Brooke was, would ever be so forthcoming.
Technically I thought this was a well-written book. I liked Birdie and Sydney, I just wished the author would have villanized Brooke much earlier and given Birdie a backbone. There needed to be more heart-wrenching emotion from Birdie to really sell her dilemma. You almost got to the point where you wished her demise for being a jellyfish. For this being Caitlin Drake’s first book, I thought she did a dang good job, and I would absolutely read her next one.

One in the Hand edition by Caitlin Drake Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I bought this book directly from the author, Caitlin Drake. We got really invested in what was happening throughout the entire book and loved the relationships that were established. I feel like I know the characters well and would be friends with them. She created a story that was easy to connect to but felt new and exciting. I also love reading about Portland, Oregon. The writing is vibrant and easy to get invested in.
This book had me smiling, laughing, and blushing. Thoughtful and fun characters tackle true-to-life dilemmas and complex feelings of long-term love and new and exciting connections. I found the book charming and had trouble putting it down. Set in the streets and nature of Portland, OR, it is a vivid love story that will leave you smiling and wanting more! I hope to see more from this author!
