I knew the first time I read Until November that I would read every installment that followed!!! Well I am thrilled to say that after about 2 chapters into Catching Him, I was positive that I will absolutely be 1-clicking every book that follows in series!! Catching Him is an addictive novel that centers around Leah and Tyler. Right off the bat, I loved Leah and was excited to see what was in store for her! If you love Aurora Rose Reynolds like I do, you know she’s has mastered the art of writing the alpha male and Tyler is the perfect example of alpha-awesomeness!! The storyline was sassy and steamy, but as per usual with Aurora there is a lot of feels built in! Catching Him is a 4.5 star read that had me swooning!! This is such a fantastic way to start off a series and I’m super excited to read ALL of the future installments in the How to Catch an Alpha series! |
Tyler's possessiveness isn't really subtle, “Whatever. As long as you’re not seeing him again, I don’t give a eff what your reasons are.” I loved this book, I fell in love witj Tyler he was just all about his girl. |
One thing I really like about ARR is that she writes insta-love that's not just about the love, and Catching Him is a great start to a new series. A light, easy read loaded with swoon and tons of really sweet moments, this book reminded me of all the reasons I love this author. It wasn't perfect. There were times that I definitely wanted to throttle Tyler and Leah had a few book throwing moments, but there was enough alpha male goodness to give me butterflies and keep the pages turning. I'm really looking forward to finding out where this series goes next. |
This is the first book in the series and it will be interesting to see how it will develop So Leah and Tyler did not have the most normal of introductions, what with him pointing a gun at her after she had broken into his house (via an open window) to capture her escaped cat... but it set the tone for the book!! I enjoyed this book, with the humour and enough drama to keep it interesting! |
Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds has me all kinds of excited for this new series of hers! Told in a duel Pov, Leah and Tyler are neighbors who have an addictive, hilarious, passionate, amazing journey to their HEA. They are easy to love individually and together. Leah is the heroine who you would love to be or have as your best friend. Tyler is the alpha who you love to love-considerate, strong, hot and all man. There are no games or miscommunications to make you want to throw your device over. This relationship is mature and so enjoyable. Add in secondary characters who are equally lovable and this is the new series to love. I can't wait for more! Until then, I' Il continue to reread this beauty! |
If you want a real alpha male, look no more. Aurora writes them as an art, difficult to copy. I love this author's books and this one was no exception. The characters are easily lovable and impossible to not care about and the story makes you want to find out more about the secondary characters. I really hope Aurora writes about the rest of them so we ca find out what happens to the lovely baker and the nice boss. Always an author to go back to whenever you need some light story and a great hero. |
*•*ARC copy was provided by netgalley.*•* •I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.• This was a cute story and I really enjoyed reading it ! Leah is at a point in her life where she has decided to take control and let the next man in her life lead the relationship she is so sick of putting everything out there for a guy to maybe decide he didn’t want what they had after all - like the last one. She is no longer going to be that girl who chases the man. Yeah she is lonely at the moment but that’s why she let her mom talk her into getting a obnoxious cat who’s name is mouse. Tyler just moved to start his life fresh. Back in Tennessee he had a good job but that boss of his was a piece for sure . That’s why when he got the offer from his long time friend for the Forman position he jumped on it! He bought a house and is excited to see what comes next . Little did either of them know how their life’s would change soon. Right after Leah ends up climbing through the window of the house next to her.... the house she thought was empty. Tyler hears a noise grabs his gun and comes face to face with the sexy woman who is nearly naked that just broke in to his house!!! Leah sees the sexy man pointing a gun at her and can’t believe what is happening. Leah try’s to avoid him after that but Their animals have some different in mind! This is a cute sexy read and it’s funny to see how each of these characters react to the other. I love Tyler’s straight forwardness and Leah is so sweet you can’t help but fall in love with her as well. Great book! |
I swear Aurora Rose Reynolds just keeps getting better and better when bringing the BOOM factor to her romance novels. She is one of my all time favorite authors when it comes to Over the Top Alpha Heroes!! They are the perfect mix of Alpha possessive and men with a heart of gold <3 Catching Him is the first book in ARR’s newest series….How To Catch An Alpha. I think this series is off to an AMAZING start. I absolutely loved this book. I had a smile on my face all the way through. This was a fairly quick read and one that would be perfect for the beach. It was such a sweet and swoony romance, but she added a touch of suspense to keep you turning the page. This book is a standalone novel that is told primarily from Leah’s POV but we do get a couple chapters from Tyler’s. I thought the flow and pace of the story worked well. Normally ARR does the insta-love connection in her books, but this one was a little slower, not much, but a little…lol :) I liked that Leah and Tyler start out as friends, at least in Leah’s eyes, not so much in Tyler’s, and then it grew from there. As you can guess this story follows Leah and Tyler. Leah is a single woman who lives alone with her cat Mouse and works in a salon with her mom and grandma. So when her cat Mouse gets out and runs next door she goes after him thinking the house is abandoned. Little did she know she would get caught by the new guy who just moved in….Tyler. Tyler is a single man who just moved into town and lives with his dog Bruce. He works in construction. When he spies his new neighbor sneaking into his house he is instantly interested. I loved the connection between Tyler and Leah. These two had some very funny moments, especially when it involved their fur babies, Mouse and Bruce. I think I love when authors put adorable pets in their stories just as much as when they put adorable kids in the book. This story actually had both. Do you have an author that when they release a book you don’t even need to know what it’s about, you just know it will be fantastic and you go in blind because they never let you down. Well ARR is that author for me. I never have to read a blurb of her books, because I know I am going to get an Alpha Hero and a sassy heroine and a love story that will make me swoon and smile. I will read anything she writes!!! If you haven’t read an ARR book and love an Alpha Hero and a story that has interesting storylines and off the charts chemistry….then you need to read one of her books. Catching Him is the perfect place to start your journey with this amazing author!!! Add this book to your TBR list NOW!!! |
ARR has always been one of my favorite authors. And this new series is so sweet and fun to read. I was captivated from the first to the very last page. It was so sweet, I think I have a tooth ache ;) Leah is living her best life being single. She has a job that she loves, she’s close to her family. She’s over playing games with guys that don’t know what they want. And she has a cat who is an escape artist. Tyler has just moved from Tennessee, wanting to get away from his overbearing mother. When his friend offers him a job he takes it. While he’s fixing up his house Leah literally falls through his window. She was trying to catch her cat. But as soon as these two meet the sparks fly and the sexual tension is felt. We follow these two while they fall in love. They have to deal with every day crap and there is also a mystery to solve. This read is so sweet and with a Hero who knows what he wants. Highly recommended. *I was given a free advanced copy of this book by NetGalley in exchange for my honest and voluntary review.

Catching Him, Keeping Him, Never Letting Him Go!!! If you are looking for a lusciously light read with a strong, independent, animal loving heroine and her protective, strong, swoon-worthy alpha neighbour then THIS BOOK IS THE ONE FOR YOU!!! Leah doesn't meet Tyler in the most conventional way having chased her cat through her neighbours window while in her underwear! She's mortified to discover that the house she thought was empty is in fact occupied by the very large and attractive man pointing a gun at her. Embarrassed and offended when he laughs at her craziness, she does her best to avoid her hot new neighbour and admire his looks from afar while trying to navigate life and the dating world, something she has little interest in having been messed around in the past......After another pet breakout Leah and Tyler start to develop a friendship and it's not long before Tyler and his dog are integrating themselves into her daily routine and making her realise that love and marriage could be a possibility in her future! But not everyone wants them to be together! Will Leah win over Tyler's family and can they discover who is causing them trouble before they go too far? This is a thoroughly enjoyable read with likeable, relatable characters, a nice easygoing storyline and a good pace. I loved Leah and Tyler's explosive chemistry and that Tyler was prepared to go all in from the get go! I would highly recommend if you enjoy a low-angst, fast-burn, small town romance. I haven't actually read many books by ARR but I will most definitely be remedying that situation very soon!!! A huge thanks to NetGalley and Montlake for the opportunity to read this book. |
I’ve never read a book by Aurora Rose Reynolds, and I can happily say that Catching Him was the perfect first book I’ve read of hers. I absolutely LOVED this book! It was sweet, funny, swoon worthy, with a tiny bit of drama. It was the perfect romance novel I was looking for. I can’t even begin to explain what Tyler did to my heartstrings. Even though the book was told mostly from Leah’s POV, Tyler stole the book for me. Who doesn’t love a gorgeous boy next door with his southern charm and his absolute adoration for the woman he can’t stop thinking about? I can’t say enough how much I LOVED this book. It put me in the perfect mood & I’m going to be smiling all day because this book just did it for me! |
Such a sweet and fun read! I really enjoyed the no drama between the main characters and the easy banter between them. Ms. Reynolds knows how to write and keep you enchanted. Fantabulous read!! |
<I>Thank you NetGalley and Montlake Romance for granting my request for an ARC of this book. The review below is entirely my own opinion.</I> I loved this book! It’s one of my favorites that I’ve read this year bec it has all the elements that I love in a good romance book. The heroine is spunky, sweet, knows what she wants, is hardworking and is close to her family. The hero is alpha yummy with a very confident attitude but is still quite the gentleman. Their pets are cute and endearing. The secondary characters aren’t distracting and there aren’t so many of them that you get lost with who’s who. There’s some angst, very little actually, but I thought it was dealt with in a very straightforward way which I totally appreciated. Let’s just say that I didn’t have any urge to throw my Kindle at the wall during any point in my reading this story. LOL In a nutshell, it’s a light, entertaining read with a whole lot of feels. Their romance developed nicely and smoothly. No insta-lust here, but it sure has heat. If you’re a fan of ARR’s books, I think you’ll be totally happy with this couple and their love story. |
Aurora has done it AGAIN! I always swoon over the hero in every single book of ARR and want them for myself. Leah and Tyler are PERFECT! Both amazing people by themselves but together such an amazing pair! I don’t want to give too much away, but Tyler being the dreamy swoon boat that he is, taking the time to get Leah to know him and realize he isn’t going anywhere before making his move is exactly what our girl needed! There of course is some drama with someone from Leah’s past but with Tyler and Leah together nothing can really stand in their way. They complement each other beautifully and the story was just so great and I was smiling the entire way through.THANK YOU, ARR! |

Everything was going great. The H is the h’s new neighbor. It was cute first meet. And when her dinner burns while she goes off after her cat, the H takes her to eat out. I was excited for their dinner but all the scoop we get about the dinner is while the h is telling about it to her granny. No live details. And then the next day she has a date with a guy who was her ex, which she don’t want to go but it was pre planned mostly by her mother so she has to go. We get the live details of that date. How Funny. Again that very same night the H invites himself at her house for beer. We get some talking between them and again its over and we are at next chapter. What nonsense is this? I mean I don’t remember if the other books I read has the early meeting of the MCs fading to black. Maybe I didn’t care then but here I wanted the details. I wanted to hear about their interactions maybe till they say goodnight... Atleast there initial meetings. So the book goes on with them spending time together. Then the H meeting h’s family and friend. Family is quite nosy and also happy that the h got a good guy. I skipped quite a bit of the family part. Because it was boring me. Finally the H and h starts dating. I loved the h’s cat and H’s dog. Both of the pets were cute. Everything was going quite simple and sweet. The h’s ex tries to create some drama. This book is simple plain but sweet romance. No billionaires or millionaires here. The H is a foreman in a construction company and the h works at her granny’s salon. The H is simple, sweet, funny, protective and possessive of the h. He is swoon. The h is likable too. Everything was kinda sweet. So if you are in mood for some sweetness with zero to none angst then go for this book. |
This was your typical ARR rom-com. Alpha male and a somewhat quirky girl who have their meet cute in random situation. If you love her previous work then really enjoy this one. |
This was a straight up sweet romance. The low angsters out there will be pleased. There also wasn't a whole lot of action until the last 15 - 20% which was a bit of a disappointment as I'm an action hound. I liked both main characters and enjoyed getting to know their friends. Unfortunately, this didn't grab hold of my attention until the very last bit. Even then, the suspense was wrapped up so fast and easy I almost felt cheated. This is a cute story and those who love low angst, sweet romances will love it. |
Tyler and Leah’s story definitely didn’t start off typical but it ended beautifully! I loved every second of this book and though I figured out part of the plot I was not let down by the writing or the humor laced through the pages! This story is a Beautiful telling of girl meets boy, boy infuriates girl but sneaky pets bind them together! I mean who needs a dating app or awkward set ups when you have A sneaky cat and a protective dog? I loved that there wasn’t any over the top drama and that the situations that took place were relatable and realistic! Defiantly not my last aurora book! |
Aurora Rose Reynolds has done it again! She continues to deliver feel good romances that leave you swooning and drooling over her sexy alpha men. My favorite series by her has been and will always be The Until series and Catching Him has the elements I love from The Until Series making it an ultimate home run in my opinion. A Must Read for her fans! |
