It was a wonderful book that I couldn’t stop from reading. People really should pick it up because you’ll miss out on a great one here.

I wish I could have liked this one more, but it was hard for me to reconcile the Arlo that loved London to the one at the beginning of the book who would use sex to taunt her.

While I appreciated the author moving the story along, skipping weeks at a time, I felt like there were key pieces to the story missing. London's ballet career ended sooner than she thought in a horrific way, yet it felt like those were glossed over (even in her conversations with Arlo). And what of Arlo's life? He's an angry guy so why wasn't that explored more?

All London could think of when she was in Arlo’s presence was the tragic ending that resulted in the loss of her dancing career and fiancée. Feeling guilty she tries to fight the undeniable attraction that consumes her every time he is near. Due to a disastrous first meeting she never thought anything would happen. Even though the cocky rock star is constantly on her mind she slowly loses the battle with his every touch. So excited I got to read this book from an author I haven’t had the opportunity to read yet.

The plot was appealing, that’s why I picked up this book.
Sadly, my expectations were too high, I guess…
The whole story felt too rushed and too cliché.

What started like some funny and sassy encounter quickly became a too easy and cheesy one, not even realistic for me to really connect with Landon nor Arlo…

I love steamy stuff but I need consistency, and the characters and the plot wasn’t consistent at all.

This book didn’t work for me, sorry.

(of course I’ll refrain from reviewing it out there)

I love the rockstar genre and this was a great read. London is a former dancer who due to an accident is working as a cleaner to help fund her new career as a photographer. Arlo is a world famous rocker with a reputation. They meet in hilarious circumstances when Arlo finds London in his shower! after she battles some spiders in his house. I just loved that very believable and funny scene between them. Arlo is taken aback when he discovers that she is has no idea who he is and even more confused when he realises that he is very attracted to her. How can he make her believe that his feelings for her are real. After losing one great love in her life, London is not ready to fall again too quickly especially for a bad boy rocker who she believes cannot offer her a future. What will happen when she goes on tour with him as his official photographer.

This story had everything you need for a great romance read. Fun characters with incredible chemistry and down to earth feelings and passions. I loved seeing Arlo going totally out of his waydoing totally unexpected things to show how much he cared about her. I hope that there will be more books in this series from M V Ellis because one is just not enough!

4.5 stars!! holy Hell, this book was AMAZING. only reason for the half star taken off? I was hoping for some drama from the Marnie chick.. Maybe i'm just a glutton for punishment, but I was hoping she'd have a bigger part than the one scene she was in. Was hoping like crazy she'd be all 'I love him, he's mine' SOMETHING to that extent, or at least up the angst meter by having her try and throw herself at Arlo, and London would walk in and see it, then there could be loads of groveling of course. Also, I'm sucker for epilogues and of course unexpected pregnancies, so that would have been epic..... and there wasn't one in this book, so I had no choice but to take off points for that. I've never read this author, actually never heard of this author, now I need to go stalk because this author has now become a new favorite!

Catching London turned out to be an okay read for me. I was honestly surprised that I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would because I absolutely love rock star romances. I liked London, Arlo, Luke and even Marko but I just couldn't connect with the story the way I hoped. There were definitely times I wanted to throat punch both London and Arlo, they were so frustrating at times but there were also times were they were so good together. I enjoyed their chemistry and the story was steamy one with an okay ending. I just wish I could have connected with the characters.
