Review

Catch a Falling Star is a warm, witty second-chance romance that had me smiling, swooning, and occasionally laughing out loud. With its blend of playful banter, simmering chemistry, and emotional heart, it hits all the right notes for a feel-good romantic read.

Guy and Lyra make a magnetic pair—he’s charming with that irresistible rugged edge, and she’s fiery, intelligent, and unforgettable. Their dynamic crackles with tension, and their shared history adds depth to every moment they spend on the page. The push-and-pull between them is perfectly paced, mixing heartfelt emotion with flirty back-and-forth and just enough angst to keep things interesting.

Laura Carter’s writing style is light and engaging, with plenty of humor woven throughout. The comedic moments—whether through awkward encounters or sharp one-liners—never feel overdone, offering just the right counterbalance to the more serious themes of forgiveness and growth.

While I didn’t quite fall head-over-heels, this was still a highly enjoyable romance that delivered exactly what I wanted: heart, laughs, and a love story worth rooting for. For fans of second-chance love with spark, heart, and plenty of charm, Catch a Falling Star is well worth adding to your TBR.
