CLICHES
She can't stand them.
Hates them.
Refuses to be one.
But...
Tessa Brooks is strong-willed, sassy, and determined, on the brink of dominating in the testosterone-fueled sport of horse racing. She’s spent her life avoiding the norm, staying true to herself to achieve her ultimate goals.
Her relationship with Jace Hitchen, her brother's best friend, just might be the biggest cliche of all. Over the years, he’s been her protector, her annoyance, her confidante, her crush. But giving in to what she's really wanted for the last ten years could be the very thing that destroys everything she's worked for and wanted. Can Tessa achieve her dreams for the future, but still hold on to the past?

Alison's 4 star review!!
For as long as Tessa can remember Jace had been her protector, her constant. There was only one problem, he was off limits, he's her brother's best friend and no matter how much she want him, she knows she shouldn't.
"There was something about the touch of skin on skin in such an innocent way that sent my heart up into my throat and then back down. Really far down. I swear it was beating in my vagina. Yep, now, that was it. Lub dub. Between my legs. Vagina heartbeat."
Friends to lovers is one of my favorite genres and brother's best friend is my absolute favorite. Jock had both elements and did not disappoint. Jock was an easy read, not too much angst but just enough for those of you that require a little something.
CM Foss' writing is effortless. She tells a story with characters that grab your heart. You root for them to be together from the first page, Jock did that for me. I loved Tessa and Jace. They were a perfectly imperfect match. They had obstacles in their way and they rose above them to come out stronger on the other side.
CM Foss is a hopeless romantic with a love for the written word. When she was little, her mom would ration her books so she wouldn’t go through them too quickly. It didn’t matter, she would just re-read. She’s always been an avid equestrian, competing in the top levels of Three Day Eventing by age seventeen. CM now resides in Northern Virginia with her husband and kids where they own and operate their own equestrian business, as well as raising grass-fed, sustainable meats. She doesn’t have this thing people call “free time”, but she does spend a weird amount of time writing, reading, playing with her kids, milking goats, and drinking wine, while avoiding bananas at all costs. Other books by CM Foss include Shiver, Swoon, and City Beautiful.
