Catch and Keep: A Novel

editor 
Outdoors enthusiast Maren Laughlin is looking to start on a new path in Wisconsin after leaving her job as a park ranger and life with her former fiancé in Michigan. In Wisconsin, she reunites with Josiah (Joe) Cole, her older brother Liam’s best friend. They spent a lot of time together growing up through Liam, but didn’t give each other a second glance due to their age gap. Now, as adults, the age difference seems trivial and they become inseparable. Still, they have a lot to overcome to become a couple, as Joe has young kids to focus on, while Maren has the world as her oyster.

Catch and Keep was a fun and swoony romance, as I’ve come to expect from Erin Hahn! I loved Maren’s connection to nature and her obvious expertise about fishing. Joe was a sweet, solid guy that put his family first. I adored the scenes with Maren’s friends Lorelai and Shelby and how they helped her admit her feelings for Joe. I loved how Maren and Joe handled challenges as a united front, and the romance scenes were hot without being over the top!
