This was my first book by Aurora Rose Reynolds and I absolutely loved it!

Chrissie is out with her friends when she unexpectedly runs into the gorgeous Gaston. The two talk and tease, but Chrissie isn't ready for anything serious. She has her bakery and she's dealing with some family issues, so she's happy where she is and doesn't need a man. Gaston has other plans. He can't seem to get Chrissie off his mind and after spending her flowers but not hearing back from her, he decides to go after her is the only way to go.

The two find out they live in the same building and before long the two are inseparable. As the two start to navigate their relationship, Gaston starts to have issues at his clubs while Chrissie is having problems with her own family.

A touch of instalove thrown in while a little mystery made this book a fun, light and sexy read. I most definitely will be going back and reading the first book in the series (which this book can be read as a standalone) and will most certainly be adding more of Ms. Reynolds to my TBR list

Another great  read from Aurora Reynolds. She really has a way with words flowing through the pages in order to grab her readers and hold them tight to all her stories and this one is no different. 

This story has you melting over each page.. Gaston  is so swoon worthy with all of his sweet loving gestures. You are a cheerleader on the side for Chrissie to take the leap. 

This is a must read and a move to the number one spot in your tbr list! <3

5 cupcake stars!

Gaston is so swoon worthy and Chrissie is perfect for him. You’ve got 2 workaholics trying to figure out a way to make room in their busy lives for each other. Absolutely love ARR books❤️ Always has the hot alpha hero and his perfectly matched heroine!

Baiting Him is book 2 in the How to Catch an Alpha Series, it can certainly be read as a stand-alone but I’m sure after reading this entertaining enjoyable insta-love story you will want to read the first book Catching Him. This book ticked all my boxes, I swooned, I smiled and I loved the characters. 
We met Cassie in book 1 she is the owner of of The Sweet Spot bakery, the bakery keeps her busy and she has no time for dates or relationships but that’s about to change  because she can’t get Gaston the extremely hot club owner out of her mind and the fact he is persistent in wooing her has her thinking maybe it’s time to give love one more chance..... 
Gaston is a man who used to getting what he wants and even though  he struggles to understand why Cassie is fighting his advances he still treats her with respect but respect doesn’t mean he will give up on making her see how good they would be together......
If you want a fun entertaining read with characters you will love then this is a must read. I’m loving everything about this series and can’t wait for the next book in the series.

I love Aurora Rose Renolds writing, I however am sad to say I did not love this book. The writing like always was on par. I love how she writes. I felt nothing for the Hero Gaston, or the heroine Chrissie. Nothing really happened. For the first time ever I couldn't wait for it to over. 
The secondary characters intrested me more the main couple. I hate giving this a bad review because I know writers put their heart into their books, but I need to give a honest review.  

Thank's Netgally for the chance to review this book for a honest review,

I love everything Aurora Rose Reynolds writes and was excited to read her newest book Baiting Him.  What I love about her books, which have a Kristen Ashley feel to them, are her protective alpha males. This is another wonderful story that is emotional, sexy and fun with a charming hero that I fell in love with, right along with the story.

When Chrissie meets Gaston she has a hard time believing she can trust him. Gaston is different from every guy Chrissie has dated and he seems too good to be true. He is annoyingly protective, caring, thoughtful and charming.

Gaston and Chrissie are immediately attracted to each other and make a great couple.  I enjoyed all the interactions between these two characters as they meet, fall in love and have a relationship.  Chrissie owns a bakery and she is sweet and hardworking. Gaston owns a couple nightclubs and when he meets Chrissie, he knows she is the one for him. Gaston is handsome and can have any woman he wants, but he only wants Chrissie.  I enjoyed this delightful, seductive story.

The queen of alpha hero's has done it again. Once again, Aurora Rose Reynolds has written a love story that puts Disney the shame. Chrissie and Gaston's story had me captivated instantly. And like all other ARR novels, I couldn't force myself to put it down until I had read every single word. Being tired was well worth it, because Baiting Him was so freaking good. I have a feeling this How to Catch an Alpha series is going to rival my full out obsession with the Until series. Which, mind you, I swore was not possible.

Story Line: Chrissie is a bakery owner. She has a work ethic I am in total awe of. Well, that's mainly because I would rather read than work at all, but seriously. Chrissie loves her bakery and devotes every spare moment she has to it. And Gaston is just as work driven. He's the owner of several bars/restaurants which keeps him out late hours. Their story is one full of love, possibilities and growth. The character development was absolutely fantastic. Chrissie learned to let go and delegate, all the while maintaining her strong career focus. And literally the same can go for Gaston. It was amazing to read how these two were able to transition their hectic work lives to accommodate one another, yet still remain true to themselves and their companies. That's not something you see a lot. Usually it's just one of the characters making changes, but this was a pleasant surprise. If you're looking for a story that curls your toes, inflates your heart and makes you want to be the best version of yourself, then look no further. Baiting Him is exactly what you're looking for.

Interaction: In true ARR fashion, Gaston sees what he wants and goes after it. But Chrissie doesn't just submit to his every whim and desire. She proves over and over again that she is a strong woman who doesn't need a man in her life. However, she also shows us that she's not indestructible. That gorgeous suit of armor she wears can crack, and Gaston proves over and over again that he is just the man for the repair and prevention job. Their love for one another is crystal clear. Their attraction, devotion and dedication seeped deep into my pores and will radiate from me for years to come.

Laundry: So, I'm sure you've gathered so far that this story is uber sweet. Almost as sweet as Chrissie's delicious treats. Well, don't assume that just because this is sweet love story, that there isn't some naughty laundry in it. Because come on now. ARR can write some HEAT and Baiting Him does NOT disappoint. Their is magical fire that burns between Chrissie and Gaston. Every time these two come together, I swear my entire body hummed with excitement. I love these two characters so freaking much.

Depth: Yes, this is a fantastic love story. But it also takes on some tough family matters too. Chrissie's family isn't something you brag to you friends about. She doesn't have the previous home life of the girl next door. Her road to where she is now isn't paved. It's dirty, rocky and at times pretty dark. But what we are shown is that our past does not define us. Just because our parents didn't have the epic love story we read about it romance novels, doesn't mean when can't have that type of HEA for ourselves. The bottom line is this - Baiting Him is a story about allowing ourselves to let love in. Allowing ourselves to grow and change with what it thrown at us. And that it's okay to take time away from our busy lives to spend with those who are most important to us. Thank you, ARR, for the reminder to put loved ones first. Always.

We were always warned that we might catch something in public bathrooms, for Chrissie she catches something special when she's caught in the men's bathroom at a club during her best friend's bachelorette party. Gaston, well the name is different but the man is unforgettable. Finally a man that is perfect in her eyes and easy on them too. Great, sexy read that will make you never look at the non existent line in front of the men's room again in the same way. 
I received an advanced copy of this book from Netgalley for my honest review.

Baiting Him was a light, easy, steamy read that captivated me right from the start.  Gaston was a swoon-worthy hero that took charge, knew what he wanted and didn't play games.  Making him the perfect complement to Chrissie.  This story has definitely made its way onto my favorites list.  I enjoyed it so much I see a re-read in my near future.

Aurora has done a great job with this book. I loved it. I'm really liking this series. It can be read as a standalone even though it's the second book. I loved the characters and the whole story. 

Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Another great book by Aurora Rose Reynolds!! I really enjoyed this it was a quick easy read. The characters chemistry was definitely there and had a great HEA!

Baiting Him is one of those stories that will melt your heart and have you grinning the whole time. Gaston and Chrissie are two characters that will find their way deep under your skin, their story will have you overflowing with happiness and they will show you what true love is. A story that is passionate, endearing, heartfelt and enchanting. Their journey might at times be sweet like candy but believe me it has enough heat and passion to warm you from head to toe. It won’t be just Chrissie and Gaston falling in love, you will fall right along with them.

4.5 stars!

The thing I love most about Aurora's books are how easy they are to read. Sometimes, you need to escape from heavy and dark books, even if they are romances too, and her books are the perfect antidote. She has been a one click author to me for years, after reading her Until series, and I have loved every story she has written.

Baiting Him is the second book in the How To Catch An Alpha series, about Chrissie, Leah from book one's best friend. Chrissie meets Gus on Leah's bachelorette party and although their initial meeting doesn't go to plan, the minute these two gave into their undeniable chemistry, their relationship shoots to the next level. Although there is some family drama and a slight twist at the end, everything works out for this couple and it makes such a sweet story.

I love Aurora's alpha male heroes and Gus did not disappoint. He was protective and charming, but so hot too. He knew what he wanted and went for it, the attraction between him and Chrissie was undeniable. And I loved Le Fou too!!

Chrissie was sassy, intelligent and so beautiful. She kept her heart closely guarded thanks to being let down by multiple male figures in her life, and was fiercely independent. However, it only took the right man to push through those barriers and restore her faith and trust in men.

This is such a sweet and easy read and I can't wait for book 3!

*I received a copy of this book in return for an honest review.*

First of all, Gaston is the perfect man! He's gorgeous, caring, understanding and can cook. He is totally swoon worthy. Chrissie doesn't have time for men. She owns a bakery and is always working. After catching Gaston's attention at his club, Twilight, he can't get the woman who is sassy and made him laugh off his mind. Chrissie finally gives him a chance and things move pretty quickly. It was easy to fall in love with them as they fell in love with each other.  

A low drama, fast paced story that is full of heat and love.

I absolutely adored this latest book in the How To Catch An Alpha series!!! Chrissie doesn't have time for anything let alone a relationship. She is consumed with her bakery and what little time she has left is helping her mom through a rough patch. So when she meets Gaston she doesn't think much about it except for the fact that he is hot. Gaston is persistent and knows that she is someone special and wants to explore their connection. Their chemistry is off the charts and Chrissie knows that Gaston is someone special but can she depend on him when others have let her down.
I was hooked from the first page and hated to see it end. I swooned, cried a bit, laughed and was rooting for them throughout. Their connection was instanteous and the heart knows what the heart wants and Gaston knew that Chrissie was it for him. I loved this book so much and I highly recommend it to all. I can't wait to read what this talented author comes out with next. Well done!!!

Beautiful book that I have read 

I loved the characters so much 
The end was the best



I give this a five stars because it amazing

Just a perfectly lovely romance!  Loved the chemistry between these two.  This is the second book in the series but can be read as a stand alone.  

Chrissie was sweet and such a good person.  Gaston stole the show for me though. Super thoughtful, romantic, a bit alpha and a whole lot of s3xy!  Chrissie tried to feel not worthy of his attentions. He was not about to let her feel that way.  Gaston set about to win her over no matter what.  

There is a little bit of tension from Gaston's work. Honestly, it barely registered for me. The focus of the story was two people getting to trust and know one another.  

Sweet story by this author and worth the read!

Another cute read by Aurora Rose Reynolds!! I definitely enjoyed this one way more than the first book. the characters were great and the romance was so cute! overall a solid romance contemporary!

AAR never lets me down!
I fly through her books in hours. They are quick reads, but have everything I'm looking for to entertain my mind for a few hours.

I always find myself letting myself read another chapter and another. I always finish one of hers and immediately go into reread an old one because I can't get enough.
Gaston, (Beauty and the Beast) aka Gus is a man after Cassie. Only Cassie is not looking. However, Gus pursues until she can't say no. Cassie is a sweet baker, but has been burned more than once and has build up walls for charming sweet men like Gus. 
Add a sweet little dog and this book is adorable.

This one was just plain fun with lots of sexy times added in to keep it moving along.  It starts off with Chrissie celebrating at Leah's bachelorette party where she meets the club owner Gaston. He is yummy, too yummy for his own good and she tells him to leave her alone which he does not do and sends her flowers with his number. No, she does not call which really does not go over well but thankfully he is persistent and when they do finally get together find out they live in the same building.  Convenient! These two do not do anything in a normal pace and it is full steam ahead which is the only pace Gaston works which is great because they are perfect together.  Family drama and work drama all go together until they get everything settled and happily ever after is on the horizon.  I definitely love this series and cannot wait to see what is next up!
