Plum Valley Cowboys Book 3: Unconventional Hearts by Emmy Sanders

 

Plum Valley Cowboys Book 3

One summer. Three men. The proposal that ropes them together.

Cooper
I came to Texas with a single goal: to find my bio-dad before the end of summer. Instead, I found Will, a spitfire of a man with sharp blue eyes and a swoon-worthy drawl. When he proposes adding benefits to our newfound friendship, I’m all in.

The problem? I’m smitten. With not one, but two men. Because Will has a friend that makes me smile like no other. My time in Plum Valley is coming to an end, but if I’m not careful, I’ll be leaving my heart behind when I go.

Will
Spending summer break back home with my best friend was not supposed to be complicated. But then Tru and I kissed, and for the first time, I don’t know where we stand. Now Cooper, the new ranch hand, is mixed up in matters, and I’m even less sure of what it all means.

The three of us fit together effortlessly, but I worry it’s only a matter of time before someone gets hurt. I don’t know how to get out of this tangled mess, and truth be told, I’m not sure I want to.

Tru
To me, it’s simple. Will and I are exploring what it means to go from friends to more. But as an asexual man, there are certain activities I’m uninterested in. Will likes Cooper, and Cooper is all about Will. And me? I have no problem sharing.

But as summer ticks down, I learn a few lessons. One, I feel more at home in Plum Valley than anywhere else. Two, I’ve been harboring major feelings for Will. And three, Cooper’s infectious optimism isn’t something I’m ready to part with.

Time’s almost up. Yet I’m nowhere near ready to say goodbye.

Unconventional Hearts is a lighthearted poly romance between a Southern charmer with a hero complex, a blunt-as-can-be sweetheart who doesn’t need saving, and a lovable golden retriever of a man who has a song for every occasion. There is no cheating and one very HEA. It’s book 3 in the Plum Valley Cowboys series but can be read as a standalone.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
Will’s turn! Kinda funny to go from book one where he was born and see him growing up to getting his own book now as an adult. Will is exactly the guy you expect after seeing him as a kid. Full of heart and standing up for those he loves. This adult Will is about to head home for the summer from college with his best friend by his side. A best friend who he has been having some feelings for, especially after they shared a recent kiss. Tru is asexual but that doesn’t mean he is looking for love. He just never imagined that the spark he rarely gets would be with his best friend. And he wants more of it. He also knows that he loves to see Will happy too. And when they first arrive in Texas and before they move their friendship to more, he sees how will looks at Cooper. The new guy on the farm. Cooper has come to Plum Valley to look for his father. He never knew the man, but after losing his mom earlier in the year, he wants to at least get some answers. What he never expects is to find Will and Tru. He immediately gets sparks of attraction with Will, especially after they hook up. But then there is Tru. And the more the friendship between them becomes stronger, the harder it is to remember that by end of summer he’ll be leaving. It may take these three a hot minute to figure what they are to one another and what they could be, but I loved seeing how the bond them form together gets stronger. The three of them worked together so well. No jealousy and no feeling left out. They fit in the way that made them all comfortable and were able to give one another exactly what they needed. Another great story in this series!
