Another fantastic read from Aurora Rose Reynolds. This is one of these authors that you preorder everything and put life on hold until you have a chance to read the book. I loved the characters in this one and it did have a few surprising moments from some of the extended characters. Cant wait for what is next.
I enjoyed reading Leah and Tyler’s story. Leah’s view on not actively looking for anyone is many times when you find them. This story was engaging and steamy hot!
Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds is the First book in the How To Catch an Alpha Series. This is the story of Tyler Duncan and Leah Emerson.
Tyler just had to move for his job and along with it has a new house, but more importantly he has a neighbor that he is instantly attracted to. Leah’s cat doesn’t seem to understand that the house next door is off limits. This leads to some funny encounters between Tyler and Leah. It doesn’t take Tyler long to know what he wants and to get it which Leah is soon learning because he wants her. But of course things don’t go to easy for them.
This was a hot read for me…big fan of Ms. Reynolds writing!
4 1/2 STARS!
CATCHING HIM is the first book in the brand new How to Catch an Alpha series by Aurora Rose Reynolds. It centers around a hairdresser and a construction foreman who have an adorable meet-cute and begin a friendship that quickly blossoms into romance.
Leah catches the reader’s eye quickly as a headstrong woman who doesn’t need just any old man in her life, she is only looking for Mr. Right … and when each of their pets seem to conspire to bring them together, she and Tyler might have to consider if it’s a sign.
Tyler is a take charge kind of guy, but seems to have a heart of gold right from the start. We’re quickly drawn into their relationship, but things get a little uneasy when Leah seems to become the fixation of someone else.
I highly recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a fast paced, fun-loving story with a couple who just seems to connect right from the start. He’s alpha-ish, but even more of a good-hearted down home kind of person. Their connection is spot-on, and their animals really make the story! Looking forward to more to come in the series.
Catching Him is the start of a brand new series by Aurora Rose Reynolds and I’m hooked! I started reading Aurora Rose Reynolds and started with her Until Series, I have liked a lot of her other series since then but never in the same way I LOVED her Until Series…. Until NOW!! You guys if the rest of the series continue to be as amazing as Catching Him I seriously can’t wait! So let’s get to it shall we?
Leah is the towns hairstylist at a bustling salon she runs with her mom and grandma. She’s had a bad bit of luck in the love department and is content in her single life at least for now, her mother is not. Tyler is new to town and also happens to be Leah’s new next door neighbor, I can’t ruin it for you guys lets just say their first meeting is seriously hilarious!
Tyler, as you may have gotten from the title is a take charge alpha that’s ready to grab what he wants and hold on for life! He knows pretty quickly Leah is it for him, now if he could only convince everyone else, including Leah. There’s so much in this book a jealous ex, so many laugh out loud moments (your husband may or may not question your sanity), family drama, swoon worth moments and of course you’ll have your steamy moments too!
This newest release by Aurora Rose Reynolds is a great easy read that truly has everything we’re looking for in a fun romance read! I highly recommend it and can’t wait to see what’s more to come!

Leah & Tyler’s story is hilarious, sweet, and fun, with a bit of suspense thrown in. I LOVE this couple so much! They start out as friends – with Tyler doing his best to guide them in a timely fashion to more. *grin* They have awesome pets that try to steal the show, and both families are also quite fun to read about! I love the supporting cast. This was just an all around fantastic read!! : )
Love has a way of finding you, or catching you off guard, when you least expect it. Leah wasn’t looking for love and she definitely didn’t want to chase after it. Tyler was just looking for a fresh start when a better opportunity came his way. Neither of them were looking for each other. However life had other plans and love found them without letting them know ahead of time. This was a wonderful story. It was fast paced with a little bit of drama. It was the perfect book to fill my time with while I was waiting for another book to come out. I loved Leah’s independence but her denial was even better. She was so afraid to see what was right in front of her that she almost didn’t see her. I loved Tyler’s southern manners. He was the perfect gentleman. He gave Leah everything she needed and more while getting to know her at the same time. And who can forget Mouse and Bruce. If it wasn’t for Mouse’s craziness they wouldn’t have met the way they did. I’m sure they would have met but their meet-cute might have been boring. And Bruce! He was to adorable! The dog captured the lady before the man had a chance. I loved it! This looks like a great start to a new series. I look forward to seeing what is to come next!

This was my first time reading anything by Aurora Rose Reynolds. The reason I came across this author was when one of my Instagram followers mentioned this book and how much they liked it. So, I went and read the blurb and it automatically intrigued me. And I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy and I was so glad. I enjoyed this book and most of all, the characters.
Leah and Tyler’s first meeting is not traditional to say the least, but it had me chuckling so much. And because of that encounter, it has Leah on Tyler’s radar. Tyler just moved in next to Leah, becoming her new neighbor. He’s the right amount of alpha and pure sweetness. He’s so protective and had me swooning nonstop. He was exactly the kind of man that Leah could use in her life. I adored Leah. She’s sassy and just so down to earth. Tyler and her together gave me so many feels. They made the best team, I loved them.
Catching Him was feel-good goodness. Low on angst and high on laughs and feels. With a storyline and secondary characters I thoroughly enjoyed. Oh, and I can’t forget about Bruce, I absolutely loved that big dog, he was just as protective of Leah like Tyler was. I can’t wait for one of this series. And obviously it’s no surprise that I’ll be reading more from Ms. Reynolds, a new-to-me author that’s now definitely on my radar.
I have always been a huge fan of Aurora Rose Reynolds and Catching Him was a story that showed why I love her stories. She created amazing characters that had me laughing but also a super amazing alpha hero. There were so many swoony moments throughout the story that I really enjoyed. This is the perfect story if you are looking for a sweet, feel good story.
I love romance books especially insta love. This was an easy to read low drama read. I loved Leah and her introduction to Tyler was great, the story mainly focuses on their relationship and how it develops which is what I love. There is some drama as always but it’s not OTT or too far fetched and it doesn’t overshadow them as a couple. Great feel good read can’t wait for more.

Finished in one sitting! I was addicted to Tyler and Leah from the start. Aurora Rose Reynolds has an incredible talent for bringing her alphas to life. Her stories leave me wishing to have one of my own.
Tyler and Leah’s love story was easy to follow and share in. A friendship that quickly blossomed into a sweet and caring love everyone aspires to have.

Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds is the first book in the How to Catch an Alpha series and man oh man was it good-seriously ARR at her best! I just adore these swoony and sweet romance books that are just so damn good that you can’t put it down and are so hard to resist. And with Catching Him, you get it all and then some.
I loved Tyler so freakin’ much! Ms. Reynolds heroes are always so alpha but have the sweetest and kindest hearts-Tyler was no different. He has recently moved for his job and when he lays eyes on his new neighbor,he knows he wants her. All he needs to do is convince her…
Leah is a fantastic character. Smart, independent, and is perfectly content being single. Trouble is her new, HOT as hell neighbor won’t stop showing up. And after their disastrous first meeting, she hopes to never see him again. But we all know that would be too easy…
I loved this book so much! The banter between the characters was hilarious and the storyline was absolutely amazing! I cannot wait to see what’s next for this series. Highly recommend reading it!
This book was so good.
I loved the story and the HEA!
It kind of had more of the feel of ARR’s C.A. Rose books than the ARR books.
I can’t wait for the next book!
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 Book 1 in Aurora Rose Reynolds’ new How to Catch an Alpha series. This was a fun, light, low drama, full of sweetness but oh so steamy read. There was a secondary suspense element which of course was pretty obvious as to who was behind it but added just a touch of depth to the plot to round it out perfectly. Overall this was an enjoyable story with great characters that I highly recommend.
This one hit the spot. The initial meeting between Leah and Tyler was awesomely epic. Tyler snuck up on the Alpha side and never wavered in his pursuit of Leah. Wonderful build up of characters and great start to a new series. Can’t wait to read more from ARR.
This book is the best of Aurora Rose Reynolds. Alpha male, strong heroine, cute animals, a touch of suspense, and Instalove, it has it all. I loved both Tyler and Leah! I hope to see much more from this series!

Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds was a light and sweet read to get lost in. Tyler moves in next door to Leah and well, life is about to change. I totally love how they met! It was totally a meet-cute! Taylor moved for a job and never expected to be pulled in by Leah. But he knows what he wants and goes for it! A total alpha! I loved that in a man. Leah was sweet, kind and honest. Tyler and Leah had great chemistry and I loved watching them fall! Catching Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds was a charming and delightful read.

Happy reading
I just finished reading one of the funniest, sweetest and just overly perfect love stories I ever had the pleasure to read, Catching Him, from the amazingly talented Aurora Rose Reynolds. When I heard that she was writing another series for Montlake Romance, I was on the edge of my seat waiting to get my hands on it. And let me tell you that it was worth the wait! Aurora nailed this book in every sense of the word and proved once again, why she is the queen of happily ever alpha romance! I wonder every time how she comes up with all these characters and plot lines and always strives to give her readers her best work. I more than enjoyed being immersed into this story about two people unexpectedly finding love in their early thirties. Both didn’t play any games and knew exactly what they wanted. I hate nothing more than too much unnecessary drama. But luckily there was nothing like that here!
Leah Emerson is young, beautiful and single. She’s a successful hair stylist with an own house and a naughty cat called Mouse. Looking for a man is not high on her priorities list. It’s not like all women need a man to be happy, right?! Especially not such as cocky and arrogant Tyler Duncan. This delicious guy is way too charming and sexy for his own good. After a disastrous first encounter, Leah hopes to never see him again. But unfortunately for her, he’s her new neighbor next door and can’t be easily avoided. Especially not after he shows up constantly at her door with his cute dog Bruce.
Tyler Duncan was always determined and never had problems going after the things he wanted. He’s recently moved from Tennessee for his new job at a construction company. From the moment he meets his stunning neighbor, he decides to make her his. Unfortunately for him, someone else wants Leah too. Tyler will do everything in his power to protect the woman he’s falling in love with, while proving he’s the kind of guy worth falling for. Can their new found happiness prevail against all odds?
Oh boy how much I adored Tyler. He was the epitome of an alpha male: sexy, confident, protective and possessive. And to top that all, he was good with kids and animals. Marriage material anyone?!? I would have said yes to him in a heartbeat. The way he loved and cared about Leah made me swoon hard.
Leah was sweet, compassionate and a little impulsive. But Tyler loved that about her. She was a loyal, gentle soul with a big heart and the best auntie to her niece and nephews. I loved her so much! She deserved a guy like Tyler in her life. Their chemistry was out of this world!!!
Aurora didn’t only create two perfect main characters, but also some loveable side characters like her best friend Cassie, her parents and her two brothers! Even the pets were adorable and made me laugh out loud. I strongly encourage everyone to read this amazing book! I promise you, it will be worth your time and money. I’m putting this beauty on my most favorite reads shelf and giving it 5 stars.
