I loved Chrissie and Gaston's story.
Jason and Vanessa did a stellar job with narration.
Looking for a light, bright, and fabulous book? You're in the right place.

Aurora has done it again. Easiest five stars I think I’ve given to one of her books besides Until December. If you know me well, then you know I can never get enough of how ARR writes such easy romance. I love that there is hardly any angst. LOVE IT!

Chrissie and Gaston falling in love was so simple and flowed so well. It was easy and had so many moments that made me smile and swoon. For me, it doesn’t really any get better than that. Throw in a dog named LeFou and I’m obsessed.

ARR writes amazing alpha males. While Gaston is a bit tame compared to the Masons, I still adored him. I will always love a man who knows what he wants, doesn’t play games, and is absolutely dreamy.

Like I keep saying, this was such an easy romance to read. If you like alpha males, low to no angst, and super sweet stories then I think you would like this one.

All in all, I am still loving this series and can’t wait for the next book Hooking Him later next year. Hopefully, it’s about a certain redhead that works at the bakery!

I received an ARC via NetGalley for an honest review.

After reading Catching Him, the first book in Aurora Rose Reynolds' 'How to Catch an Alpha' series, I couldn't wait for another story! ARR has a way of writing books that have women who are strong, and me that are protective. Baiting Him certainly falls into that category, as well.

Chrissie is a busy, hard-working owner of a bakery. She loves her job, her friends, and her family. She's perfectly happy with how her life is going. Until she is out for a bachelorette party, and encounters Gaston, a club-owner. But Chrissie isn't interested, especially knowing just how hot Gaston is. But he is dogged in his pursuit of Chrissie.

I loved both of these characters! I loved how strong Chrissie was, but yet recognized that she was able to lean on others. I loved how Gaston fell hard- and fast- for Chrissie, and knew what he wanted without playing any games.

I so look forward to more in the How to Catch an Alpha series!

Chrissie is Leah's friend from book one and Chrissie is just as fun to read about as Leah was.

Chrissie owns her own bakery and doesn't have time for a boyfriend since she works 15-hour days trying to keep her shop running. Plus why would she want a relationship when her parents ended so badly and her mother is still in the throngs of the divorce? Then Gaston ploughs into her life after she walks out of the men's bathrooms in his bar. From the get-go, there's an instant attraction which is Aurora's go and Gaston lives up to his Disney name being the hunk that he is but a hell of a lot nicer.

There are some family ties that have to be mended and obviously a hateful past love interest in the wings. This was another super spicy and quick read with a barrel of laughs along the way.

I really enjoyed this book especially because of Gaston, at first I was like surely that can’t be his name but it grew on me and then finding out he had a dog named Lefou just sealed the deal on how much I loved this man. Gaston is a hot alpha male who works hard, knows exactly what he wants, and goes for it. I loved how much he wanted to get to know Chrissie more, so he pursued her hard and got what he wanted. Chrissie is a bakery owner and she works so hard for her business that she rarely takes time off for herself so when her and Gaston become a couple, she finds herself wanting more time with him and worrying less about her bakery. She is hesitant about a relationship because of what she saw her mother go through after her parents divorced but Chrissie wants her happily ever after, so she goes with it. Gaston and Chrissie have an amazing chemistry and they fall head over heels with each other, but I wished that the dilemma/drama wouldn't have ended so abruptly. If you want a steamy read that has an alpha man that takes care of those, he loves then this book is for you.

Another great read in the series, with a hot alpha male and a sweet woman to protect.
The reason I did not give this book five stars was because at times I found it dragging on and repeating things over and over. The climax in this was seriously anticlimactic to the point where I wasn’t even surprised by any of it.
Okay, really, those four stars are for Gaston and his dog because they were the only good parts of this book.

Un romance légère et amusante avec quelques dramas et beaucoup moments mignons <3 Je suis tombée amoureuse de Gaston et j'ai beaucoup ri =D
Même reproche que le précédent livre toutefois, j'aurais voulu plus de méchants "méchants" x)
Bref, si vous voulez lire une romance cocoon sans prise de tête, FONCEZ !

PS : j'espère qu'on aura un livre sur la nouvelle assistante de Leah =D


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


A light and funny romance with some dramas and lots of cute moments <3 I fell in love with Gaston and I laughed a lot =D
Same criticism as the previous book however, I would have liked more bad "villains" x)
In short, if you want to read a cocoon romance without stress, GO !

PS: I hope we will have a book on Leah's new assistant =D

My only complaint is: who names their children Chris and Chrissie?
