2026 Book 33 - Catch Her if you Can by Tessa Bailey

Meh, it was ok. My love for Tessa Bailey books has dwindled, but I keep reading them. Eve is the small-town pariah because her father owned the local strip club. Madden moved to the small town as a teenager to get away from his abusive home in Ireland. They secretly crushed on each other since they were teens. Now Eve is 22 and inherited the strip club. And Madden is a starting catcher with the Yankees. She becomes guardian of her sister’s two kids, and agrees to marry Madden for the insurance coverage, but she insists it be in secret so she doesn’t degrade his good name. Side characters (Singer Veda and Skylar’s brother) were ok, with probable series potential. 

Eve and Madden’s love felt forced dramatic to me. He needed a kidney as a teenager so she secretly donated one to him.

His daughter, Sophie, and Pancake join them too. The two kids, Ollie and Luna, are grieving the loss of their parents and getting used to PJ and Sophie as guardians. Luna has her own motive for the road trip - wa...
