Catalyst (Meadow Lake Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Emma Nichole (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 20 ratings

Mason Shaw.

He’s exactly what I want and need in a man. He’s also off-limits as the father of one of my students.

I didn’t expect to be wildly attracted to him the moment he walked into my classroom.

Nor was I even looking for this type of… connection.

I’m only supposed to share my mind and knowledge as his son’s teacher. Not my body as his lover.
I’m a professional. Surely I can resist his perfect, blue eyes, work-calloused hands, and that deep timbre in his voice.

Having a temporary tryst with a single father is one thing.
Falling in love with him is another thing entirely.
Especially when I know for certain I can’t give him what he wants, or needs, in life

I want to be his.
I want to explore this.

I just don’t know if he’ll want me when he finds out how broken I truly am.

Catalyst is a single father x elementary school teacher small town romance.
It’s book 1 of the Meadow Lake Series but can be read as a complete standalone.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A page turner for sure!!
    Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2024
    4.5 stars closer to 5

    The Catalyst was a beautifully written story of finding happiness and true love and not giving up. I fell in love with both characters from the beginning, both were complex and had an undeniable chemistry that grew and blossomed into something really special. The storyline was original and page-turning. This book is the first in the Meadow Lake series and created a world and characters that will be exciting and captivating to read in the future. I loved Emma Nichole's writing style; it was vivid and raw. I could feel the emotions the characters felt through her words, and I felt those same emotions. I laughed, cried, and fist-pumped a few times throughout this book. This book is a contemporary romance with a single father who falls for his son's teacher. Bring your tissues and some chocolate, and be prepared to lose some sleep from this page-turning, emotional, and captivating book. -By Brooke

    This was a nice fun read. It was sweet with a little emotional moment concerning the heroine but loved that there was no back and forth and they just genuinely fell hard and fast for each other.

    Review:
    Catalyst is a strong foundation for a new series. Mason is a single father and Brynn is his son’s Levi’s elementary teacher. Mason and Brynn hit it off instantly, but Brynn’s insecurities almost tear the couple apart. Brynn takes patience and understanding to see the rightness of her relationship with Mason and Levi.

    I had an issue with handling the third-act break-up and the reconciliation. The conflict came out of nowhere and should have been an easy fix. The dispute was resolved in a couple of paragraphs. The epilogue focuses on the next book. I like a more solid happily ever after in romance books.

    What I loved was the relationship Mason had with Levi. Mason is loving and protective. Mason guards his heart because of Levi. Brynn has trouble receiving acceptance for something she can’t control. The chemistry between the couple and Levi is excellent. I loved the family dynamics between Mason and Levi and Brynn and her family. I adore loving families in books.

    This book had a few issues but was a solid foundation for this new series. I look forward to Astrid’s book. I hope we see more of Mason, Brynn, and Levi in the upcoming books.

    Would I read this author again? Yes, this book needs some tweaking but it was a good book. I enjoyed the premise and family focus. I look forward to Astrid’s book. I recommend this series.

    I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance copy of this book through Give Me Book Promotions. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

    What a cute story! Brynn is a local elementary school teacher who really feels compassion for her students, especially since she can’t have the family and children that she so desperately desires. When she reaches out to a new parent with concern of his son, her whole world changes. Mason is a single father who relocated to town and is just trying to keep things afloat in both his business and raising his son. When he meets Brynn at a parent-teacher conference, they both can’t deny the immediate chemistry between each other, and as they decide to embark on getting to know each other, the more they fit so well together. My heart broke at Brynn making a stupid decision that she thought was best for them, but in the end, they get the HEA they both deserve. This was a cute read, and I’m interested to see where these characters go with the next installment focusing on Brynn’s sister!

    Brynn and Mason are living life and not even aware that they were made for each other. Brynn feels she has a role within her family and tries to live up to that. She believes she is meant to only teach. She has had a rough go with life and is kinda in a rut. Mason is raising his son and trying to not screw that up. Enters a pretty teacher. These two are cute together and share so many feelings and thoughts. When Brynn believes she makes a decision that will help both she and Mason, she is proven wrong. Mason is a sweetheart and gets the girl.

    Catalyst is the first book I’ve read by this author, and I can say it was an enjoyable read.
    It was a quick read, one evening, small town romance between a single dad and his kid’s teacher.
    The blurb is what lured me to this book, and I can say I was not disappointed.
    I will reading reading more By Emma Nichole very soon.

    Emma Nichole is a new author to me. When ai got the chance to read the first book in the series, I jumped at it.

    Well written, this story grabbed my attention from the first chapter. The characters were engaging and easy to relate to.

    There were moments throughout which had me smiling, crying and cheering our couple on.

    The first book in the series and I'm already in love with Meadow Lake. This book had me at single dad then add in Byrnn is a first grade teacher. Mason's little boy Levi is so precious. He stole my heart. This is a heartfelt story that delivered on the feels. Mason and Brynn are adorable together, but they also have burning hot chemistry. I really like Byrnn's family and I'm really looking forward to the next book in the series. This was an enjoyable fast read for me. A great way to kick off a new series.
