For years and years I’ve been reading Erin Nicholas’s books and many have touched me, but I can honestly say this is the most heartfelt book of hers I have read and it was the perfect ending to what has been a fantastic series. ~ Slick, Guilty Pleasures

Blurb:
A friends to lovers romance…and then some.

Run a pie shop with her sisters for a year. Date for the first time at age twenty-nine. Don’t be terrified.

Well, she’s got the first thing under control at least. Mostly.

But this is exactly what a best friend is for. Advice, pep talks, matchmaking, sex education…

So what if her best friend is a guy? A very hot, tattooed, ex-Marine, mechanic guy? He’s definitely well-versed in everything she needs to know. And she trusts him. Who better to teach her the man-woman stuff she’s been missing out on?

But there could be one tiny problem. The only person causing her any butterflies…and dirty dreams…is her matchmaker himself.



A shy, nerdy heroine and a selfless good guy hero make Erin Nicholas’ Cashmere and Camo, the last book in her Billionaires in Blue Jeans series, a perfect ending to a stellar series. I am in love with Bliss, Kansas and her warm and welcoming people who made the Carmichael triplets feel at home from the minute they arrived in their town car. Cashmere and Camo was probably the sweetest of the books, but at the same time the sensuality of it was off the charts.

Brynn Carmichael is all about chemistry and the lab where she and her co-workers tirelessly work to produce medications that improve the life of those with horrible diseases; she is good at her job, brilliant really and she loves her work so when she is forced to go to Bliss, Kansas for a year to fulfill the terms of her father’s will she is way out of her comfort zone, but for her sisters she will do anything. Brynn doesn’t make waves, she goes along with what others want because she’s found it easier to do so and then just crawl back into her lab or somewhere quiet to read and be by herself, but in Bliss she is forced to interact because of the stipulations on the will and in doing so Brynn has blossomed including fantasizing about her “protector” Noah Bradley, a tattooed mechanic who turns her crank.

Ever since Noah Bradley was a young boy of 10 he has been taking care of people first his sisters and mom when his dad was deployed, then his friends, and so when Rudy Carmichael knew he was dying and planned to make his daughters come to Bliss to get their inheritance, he asked Noah to watch after them, but especially Brynn. Watching after Brynn hasn’t been a hardship for Noah, he likes her, he admires her, and he wants her, but he doesn’t believe that Rudy wanted that for her so despite what he wants he is working tirelessly to help Brynn do what needs to be done before she returns to her lab in New York.

One of the things I loved most about this book was how alike Brynn and Noah are even when they don’t realize it. I love that they are perfectly good with being in the same room with one another and doing their own thing. They don’t have to fill their time with chatter, just being WITH one another is enough for them and to me that speaks volumes. I loved that Noah knew Brynn was special and inexperienced in the ways of relationships and love and was willing to let her make decisions and even lead at times. I loved that Brynn showed that even though she is shy, she isn’t afraid to ask for what she wants when she is with the right person. Basically, I LOVED everything about their friendship and their relationship.

While Cashmere and Camo was a romance first and foremost, it was also the book that tied the series together, answered some lingering questions, and gave these three women whose relationship with their father was different for each one the closure they needed and the happiness they each deserve.

For years and years I’ve been reading Erin Nicholas’s books and many have touched me, but I can honestly say this is the most heartfelt book of hers I have read and it was the perfect ending to what has been a fantastic series.
