Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds was another favorite of mine. I love the chemistry between Leah and Tyler. Insta-love is amazing when it's written by our girl Aurora! The How to Catch An Alpha series is awesome. If you haven't picked up this series, start now! You can thank me later!

DNF at 10%

Way too cheesey and cliche for my taste literally rolled my eyes about 100x in the first 3 chapters.

I have loved other ARR work, but this one just wasn't for me.

Thank you netgalley for an arc ebook copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

While this book wasn’t bad, it also didn’t really hold my attention and I started skimming through it.

Apologies for the late response on this title, and apologies for clogging up an inbox on old titles.

While I am aware it's obvious, I have chosen not to read/review this title.

As always, I appreciate access to titles and look forward to the next one...which I have likely already read based on how long ago this title was published.

Thanks, again.

Aurora Rose Reynolds did it again! Romance addiction, that’s what it is! Brand new series, with the ever present contemporary romance perfection stamp. Funny, light but still powerful, romantic and emotional, this How to Catch an Alpha is just what the doctor ordered! Already looking forward to the next Alpha to fall! ;)

I loved the characters and the storyline development of this book. It was absolutely one of my favorites so far and I can't wait to delve in to the next one that this author writes. The storyline was simple, enjoyable, and entertaining.

As with all of this author's books i absolutely loved this one. The storyline was absolutely amazing and the characters were easy and enjoyable to read about. I was so disappointed when the story ended as I just wanted more and more from them.

Catching Him is the newest book in a brand new romance series by Aurora Rose Reynolds. It was a light, fun, signature ARR book, with a whole new cast of characters to get to know and love.

Summary:
Leah Emerson has given up on chasing men. She's been there, done that, and got the broken heart to show for it. No. She knows what she wants, and it's going to have to be the right man that chases her. She also knows that her incredibly good looking and arrogant new neighbor is probably not that man. Tyler Duncan followed an opportunity he couldn't pass up, and now he's living in a new town with a new job. He wasn't looking for love until he caught his sexy neighbor breaking into his house. Tyler's experienced enough to know that good things don't fall into your life often. Especially not a woman he wants to touch, protect, and take care of so strongly. And he wants Leah. He’s always gone after the things he wants with steadfast determination, and Leah is no different. He’ll catch her, even if it’s with a little help from the pets in their lives. But Tyler will have his work cut out for him when it becomes apparent that he’s not the only one that wants Leah. Can he protect Leah, and show her that not only is he worth fighting for, but they are?

*************************
Catching Him was an okay read for me. I enjoyed Tyler and Leah's romance, but felt other parts of the story didn't pack the punch they should have. I love Leah. She's smart, funny, knows what she wants, loves her family, stands up for what she believes in, and follows that through with action. She was cute and funny, and a heroine I'd want to be friends with. Tyler was all the best parts of an alpha male. He knew what he wanted and went about getting it or rather her. He was strong, possessive, and protective. He inserted himself in every aspect of Leah's life as he could, and I loved how he did it. Not pushy or overwhelming, but just there. As a couple, they were adorable and fit perfectly. My absolute favorite part of the book was their meet-cute. 😍 You just can't beat a hilarious case of breaking and entering while half dressed or the mischievous cat. This isn't a long book, so it's difficult to make a relationship seem anything other than insta-love, but ARR did it. I loved that despite the immediate zing between them, their relationship progressed steadily and smoothly. They had chances to get to know each other and find a friendship before taking it to the romantic level. That said, I'd never give up that romantic level. It was steamy and sweet. The chemistry only grew the more they were together, and the more emotion they felt toward each other. Overall, this was a great start to a new rom-com series. It's an easy, light read with a small element of suspense. While I'm happy the romance took center stage, there was enough that happened, that I wish the suspense part was fleshed out a bit more. Was it good without that? Yes. I just think the conclusion would have made a bigger impact if it wasn't so easily solved, and off-page at that. Secondary cast was great. I loved Leah's family. They had such a wonderful relationship and while Tyler's had that as well, it wasn't as prevalent because of proximity or lack thereof. Chrissy was a fantastic best friend, and I'm looking forward to learning more about her in her book. I was a little disappointed with how Heather's storyline ended. I was hoping we were leading up to another storyline idea, but it seemed to be solved off-page as well, with no hints at becoming its own story. That said, if you're looking for a quick escape from reality with a swoony alpha and strong woman, this is the book for you. You won't regret falling into this world for a bit or meeting the strong, sweet, funny characters that exist within it.

Fun sweet low angst romance. Loved both characters and both of their families.
As much as I really liked this book I just wish here had been a little more conflict. I enjoyed it but I found myself bored a few times while reading.
If you’re in the mood for a low angst, sweet and sexy read then this is the book for you.

Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds is FREAKING AMAZING! I fell in love with this book right from the very first chapter. The sparks were flying and the heart was pumping. I honestly couldn't put this book down until I knew what the end was and it was stunning!

Her first meeting with her sexy next door neighbor is something she will never forget. The chemistry between them could not be denied no matter how much she tried to fight the urges she felt when she saw him. She finally gives up when she feels safe in his arms as mysterious events start to unfold and threaten their safety. Absolutely love reading any book by Aurora!

Catching Him

**received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**

4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

A quick fun, flirty read that has instantaneous attraction and two strong leads who will have you hooked from the start.

Started out really cute and funny. Then got a bit more serious. I still don't understand why neither of them thought about ex when things started going wonky. Especially since everyone loves Leah and her only negative interactions have been with with this one person.

Anyway, I think Aurora Rose Reynolds is finally back. I hope Baiting Him is just as good, if not better.

There were cute pets, a entertaining and awkward first meeting, and great chemistry between the characters. This is a book that is low angst and the characters are dedicated to making things work...which isn't easy with some trouble thrown their way. Good cast of supporting characters that will hopefully get their own books.

What a great start to the new How to Catch an Alpha Series. This is an entertaining read with characters you will fall in love with. Catching Him has the perfect mix of love, passion and humour, it will captivate you and draw you in from the very first page.
Leah and Tyler think they are destined to stay single, they have both tried relationships without success but the attraction they feel for each other is intense but will they be prepared to take a chance and try love one more time ......
A perfect romance that has me swooning, smiling and giggling and if you are looking for a sweet feel good love story look no further than Catching Him.
