Summary
Chef Wyatt Blake is finally ready to move on from his thankless job. He gets no wiggle room, zero praise, plenty of abuse, and on a good day, he might only spend 12 hours in the Terroir kitchens.
A friend of his recommends a private chef position, but despite the boost in pay, Wyatt doesn’t want to babysit some spoiled, rich LA family. Imagine his shock when the family isn't a Kardashian clone but Ryan Flores, the only professional baseball player to ever come out of the closet.
Ryan is also at a career crossroads. His team’s management wants to see his more responsible side, which means no more late-night hookups and no more adrenaline-charged stunts. When his agent suggests he find a fake boyfriend to give him an air of domesticity, he’s only reluctantly interested. Until, Ryan goes to a local bar and spies the cute private chef he’s supposed to be interviewing the next day.
Maybe a quieter life wouldn’t be so bad, as long as Wyatt is part of it?
Wyatt believes Ryan could be more than just a crappy boss, but he isn't sure about leaving the kitchen for the life of a professional boyfriend. Especially when he wants the reality so much more than the fantasy.
Catch Me is a contemporary gay romance, and while it is the second book in the Kitchen Gods series, it can be listened to as a stand-alone.

A steamy, sexy, and sweet and a different approach to a fake boyfriend story.
I'm really enjoying the Kitchen Gods series and I love a fake boyfriend trope and this one really good even if it was a little different. Wyatt and Ryan have amazing chemistry right from the start and are very sexually compatible. They have a "one-night-stand" before entering into the fake boyfriend arrangement but the reason I find this difference is because their connection is there before, during (despite their best effects) and long after the fake boyfriend arrangement is happening. They seem to be more in a real relationship then not for most of the story even though they don't think they are.
I loved their connection and all the secondary characters are fantastic. I liked getting to know Wyatt's Nan and brother (there is definitely a story there!) and enjoyed getting to know new and old characters throughout the story.
I loved the depth to both Ryan and Wyatt and while massively frustrating I actually enjoyed the back and forth emotional rollercoaster with heaps of sexually charged stops along the way. So much angst and sexual tension I thought my kindle would explode. Ryan and Wyatt are definitely super hot together and I did love the HEA once they finally communicated with each other.
A fantastic, steamy story with great writing, narration, and truely loveable characters. Another winner in this series!!
Thanks for reading!

I love the characters and our introduction to them at a nightclub. Wyatt is in town for a job interview without knowing who he'd be working for and spots Ryan, a professional baseball player. Even across the room is a spark of connection quickly followed by a hook up. What Wyatt never saw coming was Ryan walking into his interview the next day as his future boss that he will private chef for in order to help pay for his grandmother's care home fees. Ryan is in need of a more wholesome image and so the idea of a fake boyfriend comes up, and why not combine private chef and fake boyfriend into one job?!
What follows is heat and attraction, fun and friendship mixed up with secrets, fears, worry and meddlesome agents and friends.
I really enjoyed the story and how it evolved for the two men. I think it took me a while to get into the book as I found the narration to be a bit monotone, not allowing much for emotion and depth as we go between characters. There's a lot on the line for both men and I was drawn into their story, needing to know how everything worked out for the men individually but most of all as a possible couple.
I'd recommend the story absolutely and try a sample to see if Wyatt's narration is good for you. Each to their own but I will happily give another of Wyatt's stories a go.
Great fake romance, slight mishit in narration

Ryan and Wyatt get into things pretty quick, Wyatt is just down for a one time thing but Ryan has ulterior motives. This didn’t sit with me very well, there was a lot of manipulation going on at the start and I did feel sorry for Wyatt.
I did like the way the story developed however and we saw how these guys were falling in love with each other albeit without saying anything to one another. I did find their relationship believable despite the rocky start.
Wyatt Baker is a new narrator to me and I really enjoyed listening to this book, the voices were good and distinct. He was really able to make you feel the ups and downs of this romance.

I loved Wyatt, I could even forgive him for letting Ryan treat him like a fool as he was such a nice bloke! Ryan, on the other hand was a very frustrating chap to say the least. I understand the way Wyatt felt about him but I’d have smacked him in the face!
I enjoyed the narration, I would listen to more of Wyatt Bakers work.
I want to punch Ryan!
