For Ariel Summers, being a well-respected and well-regarded journalist was her top priority growing up. She had dreamt of catching the big scoop her entire life. When she lands a job at one of San Francisco’s leading fashion magazine, she sees it as an opportunity she cannot refuse. As the magazine’s Sex & Relationships columnist, she is struggling to find her next big break. That’s when she meets Dean – a social media demigod with the body to boot. At least, that’s what he wants her to believe. After being approached to pursue this mystery man by her boss, Vivienne Harper, Ariel is caught in a moral dilemma between outing a fraud or demolishing a decent man. With the help from her best friend Sam and new, sexy, neighbor Owen, they are on the hunt to unmask the real Dean. Beware. Try not to get #CATFISHED.

#catfished is a story of a journalist named Ariel who has set out to expose an online sensation. He posts pictures and comments and in her eyes seems too good to be true. While working for a magazine decides to interact with Dean and see if she can expose him for the catfish she believes he is.

The story line was solid. I enjoyed the plot and the character development was great!! I am going to start the next in the series ASAP because there's some talent here and I am looking forward to reading more from Nicole!

Wow #Catfished

I have to say this is worth the read! Nicole really hit one with this book! Just when you thought this was going somewhere else with Ariel it really takes a separate turn.

#CATFISHED is an absolutely amazing book. I was intrigued from the first page all the way til the very end. Nicole has such a wonderful way with words, she draws the reader in and makes you feel like part of the story. I would recommend this to all my friends.

Funny, cute, steamy, quick read. Loved meeting Ariel and Owen in this light hearted read that touched on some real life issues.

This was a fun light read that took a few hours to read. This read follows Ariel during her assignment at her magazine trying to please her boss. She tries to catch the attention of a popular sexy guy online that all the ladies love. He begins messaging her and she begins an online relationship per say with him. Almost at the same time, she literally runs into her neighbor Owen, who is pretty sexy himself.

She begins trying to juggle the two of them and dating Owen while trying to catch this Dean guy online and getting her story. The whole #CATFISHED thing was funny and when it came out, I was excited that I kinda knew from about half way through the book.

It was a good for the first time I had read the other, but lets be honest, if Matthew hadn't been on the cover, not sure if I would have been that interested. I am a loyal follower of my cover models. But he has done a wonderful job along with Shauna at Kruse Images and Photography introducing the book world to authors.

Totally loved!!

Catfishing never looked so damn good! This story was extremely hot and had a amazing message for women everywhere. Don't be afraid to be yourself, you are beautiful and perfect just the way you are. So ladies love yourself more! To the talented author Nicole Hite, huge round of applause! No, a standing ovation! You have a uncanny way of turning your readers on by giving them what they want (a seriously delicious fantasy) and at the same time making sure they accept themselves as amazing just the way they are.

Awesome!

This is the first title I have read by this author so I wasn't sure what to expect. It took a little bit before I was able to get into the book but once I did, I didn't want to put it down. I can't wait to read more of this series!

Arial and Owen are great. It was a quick read, nicely paced and written with a HEA. I like all of Nicole's books and fan of hers for life.

A sweet story with a bit of drama. It was well written, easy to follow and filled with a too hot to handle man...how can you go wrong?

Catfished with a twist

This was a very quick read as stories go. The author takes online relationships to a different place. Caution for language and sexual scenes.
