Trey is tired of being lonely and in love with a man he knows he will never have. Looking for someone special over the Internet however, leaves him shattered and more unsure than ever.

Cole is tired of denying his feelings for Trey. Starting a relationship with the young man will not be as easy as he thinks but this time, he's not stepping away.

Carol Lynne has really out done herself this time. Without giving too much away, let me just say that after suffering a violent attack, the feelings Trey goes through are very realistic. His struggle to come to terms with what happened, his continued feelings for Cole, his desire for justice as well as his concern for those around him come through clearly for the reader. The character of Cole is strongly written, as well. His need to be there for Trey and his concerns over his job is understandable. Of course Eric, Zac, Bobby, Jules, Angelo, Marco, and Kent all make appearances, as they show up to help Trey, in his time of need.

This is a series that is sure to make its way to many keeper shelves. The stories flow easily into the next; therefore, it is necessary to read them in order. While this is only the third in the Poker Night series, Pocket Pair has become my favorite and one I will be reading again soon.
