Catching Him is a fun, cute read. With enjoyable characters and an enjoyable storyline.

I'll be honest when I say, I was expecting something similar to Aurora's, Until series which happens to be one of my all time fave series. The title of this book itself is a bit misleading as I fully expected an Alpha that would be difficult to tame. Tyler was the complete opposite of what I expected. I didn't find him that Alpha, he was sweet and caring. And there really was no Catching Him, in fact he seemed more eager then she was for this relationship.

While I enjoyed this read I didn't love it. And I'm not sure I would be inclined to continue this series.

Aurora Rose Reynolds a le chic pour écrire de belles histoires d'amour et "Catching him" ne démord pas à cette règle !
Tyler et Leah sont nouvellement voisin... et aucun d'eux n'avait des plans de tomber amoureux... mais rapidement une petite étincelle va naître entre-eux et les attirer l'un vers l'autre... (Est-ce que je vous dois de spécifier que Tyler, le héro de cette histoire, est très séduisant et qu'il ferait tout pour séduire et protéger sa belle... (un vrai alpha!)

De plus, moi qui aime beaucoup les animaux, l'héroine, Leah, a un chat qui joue au entremetteur !! Et c'est vraiment mignon !! Sourires garantis !!

Je ne peux que vous conseiller cette lecture, qui est en version originale anglaise (pour le moment), et je peux vous garantir qu'Aurora Rose Reynolds ne déçoit jamais avec ses histoires ! Bonne lecture !

This was awesome. I love how her cat ultimately is the one that helped them find each other. He is most definitely an alpha male and he falls hard for her. This was a fun witty read and also sexy at the same time, I recommend this one for sure. Thanks NetGalley.

Thank you netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This could have been a very sexy romance novel if it weren't for the fact that Tyler is an annoying alpha male. He meets Leah as she sneaks into his house trying to rescue her cat. He calls her all kinds of endearments like babe and gorgeous even though he barely knows her. Then she goes out with a guy she knows and he gets all possessive, demanding she not kiss him. Mind you he just met her a week ago. He leads her around and she tries to keep up. Not my favorite type of romance. I like my heroines fiery.

This is what happens when you have high expectations... you either soar with flying colours or fall flat.
Catching Him fell flat.
The amount of times I had to come back to finishing this book was a chore.
The story was the most mundane boring story...like yawn. Everything was so...hmm... predictable?

Tyler and Leah were something else. I highly enjoyed this book. My goodness I forgot how good ARR writes alphas. I have to admit that Leah was a strong willed woman who was a little alpha too. She had a moment or two . I really liked that Tyler was just the right amount alpha without being too much. It was a bit too insta love but that’s to be expected with ARR. Very early on it was obvious who was the harasser of Tyler and Leah. In all it was a fantastic read! The showstoppers were definitely Bruce and Mouse.

GAAAH! I loved this book by Reynolds! I love her writing style on top of the characters she creates. She keeps you totally involved and Catching Him does just that as well! I loved every word of this book! I need more!

Wow. Just wow. I am absolutely in love with Tyler, and Leah is just as awesome! These two clicked from the beginning, and while the resolve to the mystery wasn't a surprise and there was not any real conflict in the book, I loved it so much I couldn't put it down! Superb!

I confess, I really like Aurora Rose's alpha men. So, after reading the Unntil series and the Fluke of my life series, I was very happy to see her new series: How to catch an Alpha.
Hopefully nobody saw my happy dance, when I was granted the arc of Catching Him.
And hoorrah ... another great story from Aurora Rose Reynolds.
Meet Leah, feisty woman, but with a bad taste in men. After her latest disaster (a date with her high school ex setup by her mother) she really doesn't need a man.
Definitely not another cocky, alpha protective, way too hot neighbor, who points his gun on her when she climbs through his window to get her cat.
Tyler can't keep his eyes of his gorgeous and feisty neighbor, who is funny and cute. Determined to have her change her mind about men,or more specifically about him, he decides to win her over.
But Leah isn't sure whether she wants Tyler to go all caveman on her. Or maybe she does...
But when strange things start to happen, it becomes clear, that Leah may need a caveman to keep her safe.
And that is exactly what Tyler plans on doing.
Find out for yourself whether feisty woman and alpha caveman can work things out. Five out of five stars from me and I'll be looking out for the next books in the series. Thank you Netgalley for providing the arc.

Book Review- Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds
In this How to Catch an Alpha novel, Leah meets Tyler in the most embarrassing way. I loved how the story begins. Leah is chasing her impossible cat. How she meets her new neighbor is absolutely fabulous. What a way to make a first impression. I can feel for her. Nothing like a bit of humiliation to spice up your life. I don’t blame her for avoiding him until he basically plants himself in front of her.
She refuses to chase any man after her last relationship. So, Tyler will have to make the first move if he is interested. I love Tyler. He is happy to hang out with her and be friends. He makes sure she eats and takes care of her even if she isn’t aware of it.
Tyler’s dog, Bruce, plays a big role in their relationship. It seems that Bruce likes Leah first. She is forced to call Tyler the first time about his dog. The situations the dog gets them into is hilarious. He is one of the main characters. I love they dynamic of the relationships in this book. Leah and Tyler are working well together but those outside their relationship add the issues. Nothing like dealing with exs who seem interested and parents who don’t like you the instant they see you. Ouch! However, things are a bit rocky in parts thanks to other people, but Leah and Tyler are a great couple. Tyler is a sigh-worthy Character. Every girl needs a guy like that. This definitely a story I come to expect from this author. Great characters and a great love story that is contemporary. I give this book a 4 out of 5.

Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds is the first book in the How to Catch an Alpha series. Let me just tell you that Tyler is amazing. He is everything a girl could want in a man. Leah was completely caught off guard by him. I completely felt her. I myself have been in similar shoes and been not interested in meeting anyone then been blown away by an alpha. They are an amazing team. This book will not disappoint.

This is not my first book by ARR, I’ve readsome books from the Until series and loved them.

Sadly this book fell a bit short. The blurb promises a “mystery”, but that didn’t really show up until the end and it was clear who wanted Leah early on in the book.
The insta love between Leah and Tyler and the constant love confessions were just too much.

I received this ebook copy from the publisher and NetGalley for an honest review.

Catching Him is the first book in Aurora Rose Reynold’s How to Catch an Alpha series. Leah’s last relationship has taught her not to chase a man but to let him do the catching. In the meantime she’ll make do with the company of her cat, Mouse. It was down to Mouse & his Houdini like escapades that her introduction to her new neighbour, Tyler, was when she fell through a window in his house in search of her errant cat. And so it began. Tyler is the usual alpha hero we’ve come to expect from ARR, a man you just know loves and respects his family, holds open doors & would never dream of letting a woman pay. Add in his cute dog and what’s not to love! Both Tyler and Bruce know who they want and waste no time in pursuing Leah under the illusion of being ‘just friends’ to start with but it isn’t long before sparks begin to fly.

This book is a sweet, heartfelt romance with just enough hot scenes to stop it being too sugary. Perfect if you’re looking for something to kill a couple of hours but isn’t going to leave you thinking about it afterwards. I can’t help but feel disappointed though by the subplot regarding the supposed threat against Leah. If anything I felt that the blurb for this book is misleading to the reader, mainly this line – “Unfortunately someone else wants Leah – in the worst way. Now Tyler’s on a mission……”. Instead of being an integral part of the plot it almost seemed like an afterthought thrown in to help fill out the last couple of chapters and it wasn’t gone into in any great depth, more a blink and you miss it moment. This was a pity because I feel that if this part of the storyline had been built on I definitely would’ve rated it higher as I loved how the characters were written and the development of their relationship. I feel like I’d like to know them but the disappointment I feel in the overall story means I can only give Catching Him 3 stars

Leah Emerson isn’t looking for a man—she’s looking for the right man. But her mother’s idea of a great catch leaves her cold, and she’s pretty sure her cocky, arrogant, and way too good-looking new neighbor isn’t the one either. If only her wayward cat would stop jumping through his window, she could get on with her life.

Tyler Duncan moved into town for a new job, not to fall in love. But he always goes after the things he wants in life with steadfast determination…and he wants Leah Emerson. He wants her smiles, he wants her touch, and he definitely wants her in bed.

Unfortunately, someone else wants Leah—in the worst way. Now Tyler’s on a mission to protect the woman he’s falling in love with while proving he’s worth falling for, and Leah must decide whether Tyler is a catch worth catching…

REVIEW: This was just a sweet romance – with a dash of funny and sexy thrown into the mix. It was a very enjoyable read and I liked both of the characters and thought they fit so well together. It’s not my favorite by the author, but it is definitely worth a read.

Favorite quote(s)/excerpt(s): “I guess you’re right.”

“I’m always right,” I say smugly.

“You’re a woman, so I guess you probably think that’s true.” Even though I’m not looking at him, I can hear the smile in his voice.

“Word of advice: you might not want to annoy me when I have a paintbrush in my hand,” I warn, and he chuckles.

Relationship Goals!

Catching Him is a brand spanking new series by author ARR and I can't get enough! It starts out with a hilarious meet cute involving Leah chasing a runaway cat through her neighbor's window not realizing the the house has been sold and a new owner now occupies the previous vacant home. Ladies...meet Tyler! He is a hot alpha male that brings all the BOOM. Not only is he the perfect southern gentleman, he never hesitates to show Leah how he feels. Which brings me to another thing I love about this book; they communicate! No unnecessary drama here.

Overall, I love the characters. I loved the tidbits of hilarity thrown in and most of all, I LOVED the Boom!

I've picked this book up multiple times to finish it, but unfortunately this book wasn't for me. I usually love ARR, but with this I was just bored. Nothing was really happening, it was just a rambling on and on... kind of like my review. I don't really know what to say, but fear not, because I am in the minority. I say everyone give it a chance Tyler might just be your type.

QueenZany 4.5 Star Review
Catching Him
by Aurora Rose Reynolds


Catching Him is just what I needed!
Fun, sexy, alpha hotness and oh the sweetest couples ever! It simply has it all!
Aurora Rose Reynolds just had me all over my self, falling hard over Leah and Tyler's story! When you think of the true boom look no future because Aurora is my unicorn author.

3.5 stars. The author is a great writer and I normally really enjoy her books. This one fell flat for me, unfortunately. The mystery was not that much of a mystery and I didn’t really feel the connection between the main characters like I normally do. This wasn’t a terrible book but it wasn’t awesome either.

This is a quick read that’s ideal for the beach or hammock. It starts with a great meet cute, driven by an ornery cat and later a lovable dog.

The hero is a great guy, though he seemed pushy in the beginning. The heroine is smart, beautiful and confident. She’s done with chasing men and trying to make relationships work. I loved that! Yet it also puzzled me, because these character traits seem inconsistent with her willingness to be maneuvered by the hero early on. It felt disingenuous to her character. This, couple with a weak mystery subplot made this a 4, instead of 5 for me. The villain is supposed to be a mystery, but from the beginning of the trouble it was very obvious whom was responsible for the mischief. No mystery was added and I actually found myself rolling my eyes when the characters acted as if they had no clue whom it could be.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed this book by one of my favorite authors!!! Leah is over men and their stupid ways, she has sworn off men and relationships forever. She changes her mind when she meets sexy new neighbor Tyler. Their first meeting went way wrong and started off on the wrong foot. Leah was not amused by Tyler but Tyler's dog had other ideas and constantly put Leah and Tyler together....seriously his dog was adorable!! Mouse, Leah's cat had the same idea....she was in love with Tyler. They become friends but it isn't long until Tyler wants more. Can Leah let her guard down and give Tyler a chance to show her that he is the one for her? What a great story....I laughed, cried, swooned, and fanned myself during the hot steamy moments. This series is going to be amazing and I can't wait to read the next book. I highly recommend this book to all....well done!!!
