Author Jenna Miles is now JENNA MALABY!
Poignant and powerful, The Catch is a retro Gen X second chance romance with an angsty love triangle. Told in nonlinear fashion between 1993, 2006, and 2012, it captures the nostalgia of young love, along with the relatable trials of motherhood and responsibility.
Julia Dunphy’s husband just left her for the second time, her thirteen-year-old won’t stop swearing in public, and to top it all off, her four-year-old just asked to buy condoms. Needless to say, this isn’t how she expected her life to pan out.
As a teen in the nineties, Julia had bold plans to study marine biology far from home. Not even William Quinn, the working class boy-next-door, could derail her dreams. Not with his blue eyes. Not with his quiet brilliance. Not even with his loyal heart.
Still, despite time, distance, and marriage to another man, Julia’s most tender memories revolved around William. Then, after eleven years and countless broken dreams, Julia and William got an unexpected second chance when they imagined a whale-watching business together – until that, too, ended in a rupture too big to heal.
Now, amid the wreckage of her marriage, and despite a fresh start in her own aquarium shop, Julia knows a third chance with her first love is wishful thinking. But when she uses her training as a paralegal to save William's whale-watching business, and he shows up to thank her, she dares to wonder - are third chances possible, after all?
Equal parts witty, heartwarming, and heart-wrenching, The Catch is perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and Christina Lauren, and reminiscent of classics like Jane Austen's Persuasion. It offers a guaranteed Happy For Now ending, with a Happily Ever After in its sequel.
