This was my first EVER Aurora Rose Reynolds book and goodness.. Where has this author been all my adult reading life?! I don’t know how I’ve gone this long without reading any of her books and I’m feeling seriously deprived knowing I could have been reading about more characters like Tyler and Leah.

Cause guys.. I am seriously fully in love with Catching Him. Not only did it have a swoon worthy romance, a cat named Mouse(who we ALL have to thank for his jumping into the hot guys window) and an adorable dog, a heart eyes emoji worthy male character, funny moments (like the characters meet cute; Leah fell through Tyler’s window!) and crazy big families BUT it had the most gasp inducing male character ever (Yes I mentioned Tyler twice, read this book and you’ll get it)!

The author even did a wonderful job of incorporating a little drama in the form of a weaselly ex boyfriend whom we all got to hate on.

I read this book in two sittings (mostly cause stupid work interrupted & I had to sleep cause of said stupid work) but in these two sittings, you could not pry me away from these characters. Trust me when I say, you definitely want Tyler as your next book boyfriend, so do yourself a favor and go grab it!

The story between Tyler and Leah absolutely makes me happy. The writing is exceptional. The character depth and dimension is outstanding. The family and friends bring joy to the book. There is mystery, there is chemistry and there is love. The story moves smoothly and logically and makes for a quick read. Tyler's mom of course is not a favorite in the beginning. I hope that the detective gets a story and I'm torn between Chrissie and Heather, well I was torn until the Epilogue.

I've read two Aurora Rose Reynolds books before this one and have yet to understand the hype of the author. This one looked like it was going to be a cute, fun romance, so I decided to give the author one final chance.

Everyone in Emerson's life wants her to settle down, but she hasn't found the right man yet. But when her cat breaks into her neighbor's house and she comes face to face with the hot new neighbor, Emerson is smitten. Tyler takes an immediate liking to Emerson and inserts himself into her life until Emerson can't ignore him anymore.

Ugh. I honestly just think Aurora Rose Reynolds is not my cup of tea. There were so many things about this book that had me rolling my eyes and on the verge of putting this book down from 30% onward. First was the dialogue. While I was reading this, the dialogue felt so stiff and there was no way I could imagine people actually talking like that. The characters would sit around and talk about nothing and I was bored most of the time of this book. I also wasn't a fan of Emerson at all and how clueless and immature she acted as a woman in her early 30s.

When it came to the romance, I was just not on board with this book. The pacing was weird and definitely insta-lovey. These guys were barely dating and telling each other I love you and meeting each other's families. There was a "mystery" thrown in at the end that was so obvious and random and I just wasn't a fan.

The only reason I even finished this book was because I received a copy for review. If I picked it up on my own, I would have put it down before the halfway point. I think I'm done with this author and her alpha males and insta love plot lines.

Quick and addictive read, really cute story and adorable characters. I was hooked from the first page and read this in one sitting. Sweet romance

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone needs to bring up someone's dating past!! UGH!!! Especially when it is a family member. But Tyler shut it down. I love when the H sees the h and he knows exactly what he wants and is willing to put in the time. I loved this couple and their relationship and the cute pets! I hope to get a story of her Best Friend and his sister.

Its no secret I am a fan of AAR and when I hear she has a new series coming out I get super excited. With this start to this new series I think she has already gotten me hooked on this How to Catch an Alpha series.

AAR has brought us a hot, sweet romance with minimal angst. She has given us humour and swoon in one book. I had this book devoured in one afternoon enjoying the sunshine in the garden.

The main characters in Leah and Tyler are enticing. Leah was a feisty, amusing heroine who you can't help but fall in love with want her to be your friend. Tyler will make you swoon and your panties wet. He wants Leah from the moment they first meet, which it totally hilarious and a serious meet-cute.

Can't wait to see who AAR brings us next in this series.

Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds will deliver exactly what you want in a contemporary romance if you like sweet heroines and devoted heroes! This was a quick read overall, but gives you all the happy vibes you need!

Leah is very sweet and down to earth. She has been burned by guys in the past so she refuses to settle or chase a man. She meets her new neighbor, Tyler, and there is instant attraction. But, she is going to wait for him to make a move. The angst is low for the most part-she has one douchebag ex who causes some issues, his mom is a bit rude-and I appreciated the focus on building a relationship. They are friends first and build some trust. Tyler has an adorable dog and Leah has a 'runner' cat and both pets add to the levity. There is also deep family bonds throughout the story. Leah is close with her family and that relationship is important to the story. Tyler doesn't live near his family, but they are a part of his life and play a role in the story.

Overall, Catching Him is a short and sweet read for those who want a straight forward romance. The angst is low, the characters are sweet, and the plot is engaging.

3 1/2 Star Review.....

Catching Him is the first book in Aurora Rose Reynolds' How to Catch an Alpha series and is packed with sugary sweetness and many laugh out loud moments. There’s a little bit of mystery, but minimal drama and angst to deter from the fun side of this story. Leah and Tyler are an engaging couple and their romance is depicted nicely. A light, easy to read story that leaves you smiling and feeling good.

ARR is a one click author for me. I was only to happy to go on this new venture of hers. This looks to be the first in a series. I am hoping we get to stay in this small town atmosphere the author has created. Love all the quirkiness that comes with knowing everyone around you, nosy neighbors and well meaning family.

Leah and Tyler have an adorable meet cute and the sweetness in the story just goes on from there. Their pets bring some great moments. Tyler is the ultimate southern gentlemen until he has decided that Leah has slowed the pace enough. Once he declares his intentions with her, things get steamy pretty fast.

There is very little angst in this one. Just a light fluff read that will make you smile. The blurb eludes to some danger but it was not some great suspense moment. I had it figured out from the start.

Perfect summer read. Looking forward to reading about Leah's best friend maybe???

I liked how this was low key drama and really sweet. Tyler is the super hot man next door and they meet over shenanigans with Leah’s cat. It was nice just to read a story that wasn’t over the top or super angsty, everything just sorta clicked with Tyler and Leah.

Catching Him is the first title in the How to Catch an Alpha series. Leah and Tyler’s are an honest and likeable pair, their story is a sweet, swoony, heartfelt romance.
Leah Emerson is sweet, kind, sincere and cheerful and has very strong ties with her family. Tyler Duncan is a protective, possessive and hard working alpha.
I adored everything about this fast paced, steamy romance from their meet cute, to the touch of intrigue, and the fact that their romance is low in angst and drama.
The secondary characters were incredibly likeable, and I hope that we get to see some more of them in future addition to the How to Catch an Alpha series.

I didn’t read the blurb since I love all of Aurora’s books so I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book, but I loved it. I was hooked from beginning to end. There were some funny moments, lots of swoon-worthy moments between Tyler and Leah. It is also low angst with very little drama and suspense. I am hoping some of the secondary characters end up getting a book too. If you’re looking at an easy feel-good read, then this is for you!

4 1/2 Stars! A quick swoon worthy read!

Leah is happy with her life ... she’s not looking for that special someone. But when Tyler moves in next door, her whole outlook on life changes. Tyler moved because he wasn’t happy at his job and was offered something more. But he couldn’t believe his luck when a beautiful woman falls through his window.

I just loved this cute, down-to-earth romance! I loved the fact that Leah was a hairdresser and Tyler was a construction worker ... ordinary people! Even the banter between the characters was so realistic. It was so funny when Leah went through the window of the house next door. It checked all the boxes ... funny, romantic and steamy! A great start to a new series!

I received an early copy courtesy of Montlake Romance through NetGalley in exchange for a honest review.

Catching Him was a great read. I loved it. I loved loved Tyler and Leah. Tyler was swoony, possessive and sexy. Leah was really sweet. Tyler and Leah had amazing chemistry and were just perfect together!

Catching Him is the start of something. It's the first book in the How to Catch an Alpha series and I look forward to what I hope is a ton more. This feel good story has an unforgettable meet cute, two more than cute pets, and an Alpha you will be tripping on yourself to snag!

Sexy, sweet, and perfect are the words to describe Tyler. These two are adorable together and made my day! If you need an extra dose of sweet and sexy, look no further!

Full of laughter, fun ans snark! Truly enjoy thse romantic comedies!

This is what happens when you stop trying to find "the one" and you insist there isn't a relationship lol

This is a great read. Great character development and storytelling. I loved how Leah and Tyler got together and how their relationship developed.I am looking forward to more by this author.

Another awesome book by Aurora Rose Reynolds. This book was amazing.
Loved Leah. She is how I like my heroines in the books I read. Funny, sassy, sweet and also strong. She meets Tyler when she literally fall into his life. He’s her arrogant, cocky and hot neighbor.
Tyler..he is protective and possessive alpha male. Loved him. He knew what he wanted and he wants Leah.
This story is a light read with little to no angst and we get a lot of couple time that I loved very much.
The chemistry between Leah and Tyler and was hot. I’ve read it in one sitting.
I couldn’t put it down and didn’t want it to end.
I really can’t wait to read more of this series.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ STARS!!

“I received a free, advance copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for my unbiased review”

‘Catching him’ is the first book of a new series. I’m very happy that I got the chance to read this book because this story reminded me again why I love reading romance stories so much. It had the perfect blend of everything that I love in my romance books. A bit of fun, a bit of suspense, a bit of sweet and a lot of love. It was just perfect.

I loved the main characters, Leah and Tyler very much. From the funny way that they met until the epilogue. Leah’s character had this great mix of being sassy, funny, adorable, intelligent, thoughtful and caring. And Tyler was this alpha guy who was determined, honest, considerate and very protective. It was lovely to see how Leah and Tyler cared for each other and to feel their love for their family too. (Their family were the spice in this blend. They brought humour and that little extra to the story.) I also enjoyed the chemistry between the couple and their interaction.

‘Catching him’ is this sweet, funny, small town love story. It’s told mostly from Leah’s POV but it also had a few POV’s from Tyler. There was a little suspense in it, but it was very small. Another thing that I loved about this story were the epilogues in the end. I LOVED them!

I enjoyed this book very much and I’m already looking forward to the next book in this series.

Fantastic read. Enjoyed it alot. Absolutely love the story and damn Tyler is so sexy and alpha male. Love it!
