In The Pocket

By zoe hickey

Some rules are made to be broken.

Elena Vance has built her life on discipline. As the head chef of one of the city's most prestigious restaurants, precision isn't just part of the job, it's how she survives. Every service is controlled. Every decision calculated. Every emotion locked safely away.

Lyra Cruz lives by instinct. A bassist who feels most at home beneath stage lights, she has spent years keeping people at arm's length, convinced that getting too close only leads to heartbreak.

When one unforgettable night throws their worlds together, the attraction is impossible to ignore. But chemistry is only the beginning.

Between demanding careers, old wounds, complicated relationships, and the fears they've spent years hiding, Elena and Lyra must decide whether risking everything they've built is the only way to discover who they truly are.

In the Pocket is a passionate, emotionally charged sapphic romance exploring trust, vulnerability, healing, and the courage to surrender to love. Featuring explicit open-door romance, consensual BDSM, and an original soundtrack by Velvet Velora, this is a story about finding freedom in the one place you never expected... another person's heart.
