3S is forcing, so that seems like a good bid to me.

Since 3♠ shows a hand too good for initial 2♠ overcall, 3♠ is clearly forcing after partner showed extra values.

Right. The next call may not be so easy.

It won't? 3NT we pass, 4♣ or 4♦ we bid 5♣, 4♥ we bid 4♠, 4♠ we pass.... I think I'm covered!

If partner manages to find a 4♥ call, should I really bid 4♠?
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?
So many experts, not enough X cards.

Spades aren't good, 5-3 fit, doubleton heart, not much extra, partner limited by his NF 3♣ bid. I think so.
