Catch and Keep

At thirty-three, Maren Laughlin's just turned down her boyfriends proposal, walked away from her decade-long position as a park ranger, and returned to her childhood playground in Northern Wisconsin to accept her inheritance: a decrepit waterfront bait shop. After a lifetime of letting things happen to her, shes ready to start making her own moves, even if everyone else thinks shes making the wrong ones. Well, not everyone - at least the local heartstopper and resort owner is on her side. Josiah Cole has made some missteps in his life, but hes proud of what he has: two awesome kids and the keys to the kind of getaway spot that has families coming back every summer - their up north home away from home. After his marriage dissolved, leaving him a single dad, he feels hes the last person to judge Maren for her recent transformation (even if his best friend, her brother, wants him to feel otherwise). Besides, he genuinely likes having her around. Shes a breath of fresh air, his kids adore her (not to mention her dog, Rogers), and it doesnt hurt that shes beautiful. Things between Maren and Joe are easy. So easy, theyre fully immersed in the middle before they even decide to begin. Its not a question of should they, but rather can they make it last? Are things too easy, or is this just how real love works? In Erin Hahns heartwarmingly sexy Catch and Keep, Maren and Joe have to be brave enough to find out.
