Baiting Him by Aurora Rose Reynolds

From New York Times bestselling author Aurora Rose Reynolds comes the second book in the steamy, witty, and hilarious How to Catch an Alpha series.

Chrissie doesn’t have time for guys, hot or otherwise; most days, she barely has time to sleep. With a thriving bakery that demands her attention and plenty of proof that relationships aren’t worth the trouble, she’s content to go it alone. Too bad she’s unwittingly baited Mr. Tall, Dark, and Way Too Gorgeous—and he’s just waiting for a chance to bite.

Gaston is used to getting what he wants, but he also knows nothing good ever comes easy. From the moment he meets Chrissie, he realizes that this woman who makes him laugh, smells like cupcakes, and looks like a tasty snack is going to be his greatest challenge. And if he’s lucky, she’ll be his biggest reward.

But someone else wants to catch Gaston at all costs—even if it means endangering the lives of the people he loves. Somehow Gaston must thwart danger and convince Chrissie that he’s the perfect catch.

Chrissie loves her life. She has amazing friends and an amazing business. What is not amazing is her relationship with her dad and she worries about her mom. While her parents got divorced last year, Chrissie never would have suspected that her dad was a cheater. However, once he was married to his mistress, Chrissie hasn't heard from him. When she meets Gaston (Gus), she knows that he's wildly attractive, but doesn't believe that she'll ever see him again.

Gaston (Gus) owns several nightclubs and businesses. When he meets Chrissie for the first time, he's immediately taken with her. She's smart, snarky, and gorgeous. When he can't seem to get her out of his head, he takes the extra steps to find out where she works.

Chrissie and Gus' relationship was very easy to relate to. They deal with real life problems and handle them together. It was fantastic to watch them lean on each other, support each other, and finally find their love. I really loved each of the main characters in this story. And while it's slightly on the predictable side, it was still enjoyable.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the second book in the series, and could be read as a standalone – mind you, Catching Him was such fun that you shouldn't really miss out! Chrissie and Gaston (Gus) are really the perfect match – but obviously they don't realise this straightaway, luckily Reynolds knows just how to reveal their romantic journey to us. It is a lovely read, which I would definitely recommend to you.

Chrissie runs her own bakery called The Sweet Spot. She is a workaholic and reluctant to release control, or risk taking on more staff in case she overextends herself. She is creative, but sensible, and after her parents went through a messy divorce, she is cautious about commitment. So when the dynamic, successful, and very handsome man that she met at Leah's hen party turns up at her bakery, she is somewhat nervous of believing he is interested in her. As Gaston proves himself to be really the most ideal of men, she starts to soften her attitude.

I won't say anything more, as you should enjoy the story yourself, but rest assured that it is a book which will leave you feeling satisfied... although you may want some pastries or cookies to hand, as it is one of those books where you feel envious of their sweet treats!
