Synopsis

Dani Petrillo's friends are settling down faster than she can escape her latest one-night stand. After her best friend's wedding, she decides it's time to leave the single life behind and find true love. She joins a dating site that makes a bold promise—Eight Dates to Your Soulmate—if you can follow their dating bootcamp rules. The first one? No sleeping with any of your matches until the eight dates are over. Sure, she wants to find a good guy, but she also knows that no sex for months isn't going to work for her. Luckily, she's always been good at bending the rules.

Dylan Pierce doesn't do commitment, and if his genes are any indication, he wasn't made for it anyway. He's also been trying to get his hot friend Dani into bed for years, so he's ecstatic when she suggests a friends with benefits arrangement while she's participating in some dating bootcamp nonsense. She gets her, um, needs taken care of while she looks for love, and he gets to sleep with Dani, no strings attached. Win/win.

But when lines start to blur, their arrangement feels more and more like dating, and Dylan feels less and less like sending her off to some other guy when they're done. It might mean breaking some of his own dating rules, but he wants Dani for himself.

About Lauren H. Mae

Lauren H. Mae is a romance author who loves a hard-earned happy ever after. She loves to break her characters' hearts, then put them back together bigger and happier than they were before.

Her books are full of strong friendships, hard life lessons, and love that endures the biggest ups and downs. The Catch is her debut novel and is the first book of the Summer Nights series.

Lauren lives in New England with her husband and two sons. She survives the cold by binging romance in either book or movie format, and she owes almost all of her writing success to her slight addiction to Red Bull.

4.5 | Excuse me but this was SO good? and the two main characters were the cutest? and their relationship was so funny? and the angst they served when they broke up? the only thing that would make this a thousand times better would be a cute epilogue...

Goodreads review by Shannon on August 07, 2022

I really enjoyed Dani and Dylan's unconventional romance of convenience/friends to lovers situation that starts with a one night stand and is supposed to be a no-strings attached situation while Dani searches for 'the one' and commitment-phobe Dylan helps her out. A fun, unique premise that sees the......more

Adorbzzzz.... I loved this so much. This was the super cute and fun read that I didn't know I needed in my life. While this is part of a series, I read it as a standalone but definitely plan on reading the other books now. Dylan, Josh, Cat, Emma, Dani and Sonja have all been friends for years. Josh a......more
