𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐞 𝟏𝟑! 

For Knot Her Catch to be dubbed an enemies to lovers romance, it’s surprisingly sweet, super swoony, and oh so spicy! 

The book follows Bridget, an omega who has always been seen as undesirable thanks to her very pungent perfume. So, when the Locke Pack extends the offer of a fake engagement to save their reputation, Bridget jumps at the opportunity.

Being their fake fiancée gives Bridget the freedom and control she has been longing for, just without a real happy ending—a price she's willing to pay for her independence.

Things go a bit sidewise when their fake relationship makes headlines, and soon Bridget finds herself surrounded by the four overprotective alphas she cannot stand in an attempt to save face. 

The more time spent around the Locke Pack quickly has the lines between what’s real and what’s fake blurring, and Bridget doesn’t know if she’ll escape this arrangement unscathed. 

This was my first read by Ari, but absolutely not my last.

I loved Bridget’s story! She went through a lot growing up with her horrible family. When she met her pack, things didn’t just fall together nicely. Once the guys decided they really did want Bridget as their omega, they had some work to do to convince her of their feelings. Sweet and spicy with a bit of groveling. I loved their happy ending!

Star: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25 

Knot Her Catch by Ari Wright, the fifth book in the MVP – Most Valuable Pack series, is a sizzling, chaotic, and unexpectedly emotional take on fake relationships, alpha dynamics, and found family. Bridget Woods is bold, sharp-tongued, and fiercely independent. She doesn’t just roll with the punches—she throws a few of her own. So when she agrees to the Locke Pack’s ridiculous proposal to pose as their fake fiancée, she sees it as a power move, not a surrender. She might loathe their arrogant charm and infuriating teamwork, but she’s got her reasons—and plans to keep control of the situation, and of herself. 

That control unravels fast. 

Bridget is thrown headfirst into the whirlwind of pack politics, public scrutiny, and four dominating alpha personalities who are way too good-looking for anyone’s sanity. What starts as a scheme to salvage reputation and status quickly morphs into something far more intimate and tangled. Their fake engagement is suddenly on every headline, and the only way to manage the fallout? Let them move in. All of them. Into her space, her daily life, and against every rule she’s built for self-preservation. 

The real magic of this book lies in the interplay between Bridget and the Locke Pack. The push and pull is relentless—equal parts hilarious, steamy, and heartwarming. Each of the alphas brings something unique to the dynamic, and watching them shift from smug, playful showmen to attentive, deeply devoted would-be mates is deliciously satisfying. Bridget isn’t an easy heroine to win over, and that’s what makes her journey so rewarding. Her fire never dims, but it does soften, making space for vulnerability and love that sneaks up on her as much as it does the reader. 

Ari Wright’s writing blends sharp wit, spicy tension, and a genuinely empowering narrative for a heroine who refuses to be a passive love interest. The pack dynamics feel layered and rich, not just romantically but emotionally, showcasing themes of trust, loyalty, and shared healing. And yes, there’s plenty of heat—scorching, pack-sized, "how is this legal" heat—but never at the expense of character development or plot. 

Knot Her Catch is a perfect blend of chaos and chemistry, confidence and craving. It’s a celebration of unexpected love, chosen connections, and a woman who learns that sometimes letting others in doesn’t mean giving up control—it means finding a team that plays for her, not just with her.

Love, love, love, LOVE this one! I could not stop myself from reading this in one sitting. The  selflessness of our FMC, who is the embodiment of a curvy, educated, badass woman, to our handsome, sinfully charming yet cocky (in more ways then one) MMCs, I loved every single moment watching their love story unfold. 

I loved our batshit crazy old lady neighbor and the rightful owner of the house, an orange cat! Plus the flawless connections with the other packs we all know and love. 

The growth and development in everything—characters, plot, relationships—truly were done well and brought together everything beyond words!

The twist and turns we saw were not what I expected, nor anticipated from Ari Wright due to her previous books(was interesting to see how everything played out), but I was rather pleased to see this side of her writing and can’t wait to read more of her work!

I love love love these books. Bridget has always been so ashamed of herself, of her perfume, and of her lack of a pack. So when she ends up 'engaged' to a pack for convenience, that solves everything, right? Not even close. 

But when the pack gets a new alpha, everything starts to change. He whips them all into shape, starting with teachig then to treat Bridget how they should have been for months. Each of them has a specific need met by Bridget, and they meet one of hers as well. Although Colt has been around the longest, and she's had a decent relationship with Jesse and Dante, Adrian really brings it all together, making their pack feel like a family.
