I’m the oldest virgin in major league baseball. And I’m in love with a woman who’s about to marry someone else.
Listen. It’s not like I planned to still be a virgin at twenty-eight. Or to fall in love with the team trainer, who apparently would rather date a guy who wears polo shirts instead of baseball pants.
But life doesn’t always go according to plan.
When I first laid eyes on Lark Miller, I knew she was something special. Unfortunately, so did her boyfriend.
For years I kept my feelings hidden. I accepted my role as best guy friend, and focused on my career. My priority needs to be securing another contract with the Vancouver Tridents so I can help my parents retire. I can’t afford any distractions.
But then the day comes that Lark shows up at my door, and tells me she’s ended her engagement. Not only that, but she’s broken up with polo shirt guy.
And then she kisses me.
My fantasy becomes my reality. Lark wants me. Me. She’s perfect, we’re perfect, everything is perfect. I’ve got the woman of my dreams, and the best part is she understands how important baseball has to be for me right now.
But remember what I said about life not going according to plan?
My name is Dan “Monty” Montgomery: Formerly the oldest virgin in baseball, and now the newest expectant father.

I really enjoyed their journey. Dan had his insecurities that made him afraid he wouldn’t be good enough. Emotionally, Lark went from seeing Dan as a friend to being the love of her life. Lark now is seeing things with new eyes and is trying to figure out how she didn’t always see that her true love was right there. Dan is a virgin and getting to have his first time being with the person he loves more than anything made it so special for him. I loved them together, they just fit together so perfectly.
A surprise pregnancy definitely rushes their new relationship but they couldn’t be more ready. I love how all in they were.
Tim Paige and Victoria Connolly did an amazing job with the narration. The characters were brought to life and were easy to listen to, easy to follow along with.

This is Lark Miller and Dan “Monty” Montgomery’s friends to lovers story which was well written, entertaining and ticked numerous boxes for me.
Dan has had feelings for Lark for years but didn’t want to risk their friendship. However, once they cross the line, it was wonderful to watch their relationship evolve.
The narration by Tim Paige and Victoria Connolly brought the characters to life for me. Their voices were easy to listen too and they brought all the passion, drama, romance and humour to their performances.
Entertaining

Dan Montgomery and Lark Miller are perfect for each other, and everyone in the world knows it – except Lark. Which means she has a butthead of a fiancé who doesn’t appreciate her, future monsters-in-law looming, and the wedding from you-know-where being planned with basically no input from her, and Monty is sitting on the sideline pining. Just like he’s been doing ever since he met her. Timing is everything, and Monty’s sucked; he was too late. There he was, flowers in hand, finally with enough courage to ask her out, when one of his teammates pulled him aside and told him Lark was with Baron and had been for a long time. Family connections, families practically had them engaged at birth. So back to the Friend Zone Monty goes. And Lark has him so far in that zone that it takes her a long, long time to realize Mr. Right might be right in front of her.
Monty is a great guy: great son, baseball player, teammate, friend. And too nice for his own good. Monty and Lark are best friends. He knows everything about her, what she likes, what she doesn’t, how to make her smile, how to comfort her, and if staying in the friend zone gives him one more second with her then that’s where he’ll stay. Not really happily, but grateful for any time at all at her side. Other slight point of interest about Monty: he’s just about as inexperienced as inexperienced can be. And once he fell in love with Lark he didn’t have any desire to change that. Maybe someday he’ll meet someone, but he’s not looking so chances are small.
Lark’s biggest personality trait for the first part of the book is cluelessness. Cluelessness and the inability/refusal to take control of her own life. Raised by parents who had high expectations but basically ignored her except to criticize, engaged to a man she has dated for years because their parents are business parents and it’s just supposed to be the next step. In a relationship with a man who belittles her, does not seem attracted to her and seems to just be going through the motions. Her friends have told her she could do so much better, deserves better, and to turn around and take a look at how Monty is looking at her, and we want to grab her shoulders and shake her. Her friendship with Monty is the best thing in her life, but she doesn’t see how he really feels or what could be, and her eyes open slowly to what the rest of her life will be like if she marries Baron, and it takes a night out with her girlfriends celebrating that breakup before she starts thinking “What if?”
After that the story is full of laugh-out-loud moments, sweetness, romance, and surprises. Monty is ecstatic that Lark might really want him, but he wants to take things very slowly, not only because of his lack of experience but because if this is his one shot for the woman of his dreams he doesn’t want to take one wrong step. He really is the perfect man. And when Lark starts to see that, to view him not only as that perfect buddy but as the perfect man, the perfect partner for her your heart will swell with happiness.
Narrators Victoria Connolly & Tim Paige do a terrific job voicing Lark and Monty. Connolly does Lark’s cluelessness just right, and makes you sympathize with her reluctance to push back against Baron and all the parents, to see her as a person intimidated and trying to do the right thing. Connolly makes you wish Lark had figured things out sooner but you don’t resent her. Tim Paige becomes Monty, coming across as friendly and happy and helpful, but with hints of what he keeps hidden inside. Competent and strong, always wanting to do the right thing – and just a bit innocent. Monty is not ignorant, there is just a lot of stuff he has not done, and Paige makes Monty sensitive and shy and bold and full of desire at the same time.
I received an advance listening copy of Catch Her Heart from Home Cooked Books. I thoroughly enjoyed it and cannot wait for the next book in the series – audio, of course, because that’s always best! I voluntarily leave this review; all opinions are my own.
So sweet, funny, swoony

I really like Julia Jarrett’s style! I met her words back in 2023 but haven’t been able to catch up on her backlist yet and every time I have an opportunity to experience one of her stories, I mentally kick myself for not doing better at catching up! She’s a good storyteller that doesn’t fluff up her work or unnecessarily dramatize it. Her stories are fun and relatable and always hit the spot for me.
Dan, our MMC, has been crushing on our FMC, Lark, for quite some time, but alas, she’s marrying someone else. Or is she?! Hmmmmmm LOL This friends-to-more story with an added surprise was super swoony and full of heart. I might have shed a tear or two because Dan was the best guy ever!! I loved his character so much and Lark was his perfect other half! The story wasn’t always smooth sailing but love always wins! ;)
🎙️Tim Paige and Victoria Conolly🎙️ were an amazing team performing this story! I have a lot of experience with Tim Paige so I knew going in that he would not disappoint. He’s always been one of my favorites and this performance was no different! Victoria wasn’t new-to-me, but I’d only listened to one other audio narrated by her and that story was so all consuming twitchy that I don’t even think I heard the narrators. 🤨🤨 But I listened to her this time, and she was really great and memorable! I’ll be looking out for her in the future!
The Vancouver Tridents series has been an absolute joy in my ears for these three books and I cannot wait to have the next in the series, Steal A Kiss in my ears asap! 😍

Sometimes you just need to read about a complete green flag hero who has a secret tattoo for his girl best friend that he’s been in love with for years. Did I mention he’s obsessed with space and named a star after her? Oh, and he’s a virgin who saved for her. Yeah, Monty is THAT guy. 😍
The audio was fantastic btw!

Dan is a perfect book boyfriend. He has loved Lark for quite a while but has kept it a secret since she has a boyfriend. When they break up, Dan is still respectful and doesn't push Lark in any way. He is always supportive of her, and he always shows that he is thinking of her. Lark has had a harder road than Dan, and she is not quite sure she can trust her feelings. She completely trusts Dan, though, and they form a lovely relationship.
The narrators did a terrific job. These characters are best friends who become lovers, and the narrators caught that energy. There is a lot of playfulness and humor, even during more serious times. I had a hard time turning it off and kept sneaking listening time.
Great characters

I've loved all the interactions with Monty since the first book, and I gotta say, I'm pretty sure he'll go down as my favorite Vancouver Trident. I absolutely loved Monty's relationship with Lark. Their friendship was everything, and when their relationship became more, it was even more everything (I know that's not a thing but whatever).
Honestly, the tattoo, the star, the Baby Bird... it all had me grinning and kicking my feet. And when that new 7th inning tradition came up, I swear I had happy tears in my eyes.
Quote: “It’s funny. I went from a vırgin to a father-to-be in a very short time. It might not be what I ever would have planned for myself, but I don’t regret a single thing. How could I when the first woman I’ve ever loved will also be the last woman I love? The only woman I’ll ever love.”
“If this is a dream, I hope I never wake up.”
