The Catch

Summer Nights Series, Book 1

By: Lauren H. Mae

Narrated by: Amanda Friday

Catia Roday has learned the hard way that love always disappoints, so when she finds herself falling for Josh Rideout—the handsome, charming, seemingly-perfect guy she just met on vacation—only to find out they hail from neighboring towns, she has one question: what's the catch?

Unwilling to let love make a fool of her again, Cat tries desperately to ignore the chemistry between her and Josh, but it isn't easy when their vacation plans keep overlapping. With the universe constantly throwing them together, and her friends practically staging an intervention to tell her she's making a huge mistake, she decides to prove her point once and for all. On the way home, she makes a bet. She'll take her budding vacation romance back to the real world, and when she proves Josh is too good to be true, she wins! (And she avoids another heartbreak.)

What ensues is a series of tests and games with Josh one step ahead of her the whole time, until Cat realizes the friendly wager has her betting against the one man who can revive her faith in love. Worse yet, it turns out Josh might not be the gambling type.

Soap opera hanger

Keeps you in gulf with the love story as if you are watching a soap opera. Rooting for your favorite couple to end up together. This book was not a disappointment

I liked how the author approached the characters development

I really enjoy this authors books. she has a unique spin on relationships. These too characters have some issues to work on, and they do. it's a sweet book. I enjoyed it and looking forward to listening to the sequela.

Great story

I loved the story of Josh and Katia. Did not want it to end.

Loved the book

I love the story line, but hated that it ended so abruptly. I wish they would have went through to the engagement scene and possible a snippet of marriage.

WONDERFUL

Loved this love story that almost didn’t happen. A great example of how we sabotage our own lives of finding happiness & believing we don’t deserve it. Great narrator also.
