CHASING ME by Jennifer Probst
BOOK SUMMARY:
Quinn and James' Story Continues in Chasing Me...It was supposed to be a love story....
I knew she was out of my league but I didn’t care. Looking back, I wonder if I hadn’t pursued her, would things have turned out differently? Is it Fate that determines our choices in life? God? Free will? Or just plain old innate selfishness?
I got her, of course. There hadn’t been a girl I wasn’t able to seduce. Problem was she seduced me right back, body, mind, and soul. She possessed me, tormented me, and showed me a world that was so bright and pure I was almost blinded.
Didn’t she know after such a drug I could never settle for less? Didn’t she realize no matter how many times I screwed up, or broke her heart, or bent her to my will, I’d never be able to let her go? If I hadn’t known such intensity existed, would it have been better for both of us?
True love, the real kind, isn’t nice and sweet and pure. No, it’s dirty, and sinful, and messy. It’s like ripping a chunk of flesh from your body and watching yourself bleed out in slow, helpless intervals until you thankfully pass out.
My Thoughts:
I was excited to hear that there was going to be another story to follow Beyond Me, because I really enjoyed that story. So, I was excited to see what was going to happen in Chasing Me. All right, it's not all roses in this story. Actually you see a lot of inner thoughts from Quinn and James. They have been together for almost a year and each of them wasn't being true themselves. At the same time, they kept it to themselves. Then there were other issues causing problems that they were trying to sweep under the rug and not really deal.
Overall, Chasing Me was bad, but it wasn't great. I felt disconnected between these two characters. A lot of the story I felt, do they really want to be together. Fortunately, there is a HEA, but it's takes a lot to get that point. The writing is still great, but I just didn't feel strong emotional pull towards this story.

LOSING US by Jen McLaughlin
BOOK SUMMARY:
When it all comes crashing down...
Everything I thought I had with Austin Murphy—safety, stability, the normalcy I crave but my celebrity lifestyle rarely allows—was ripped away in one night. I wanted to surprise him, but the joke was on me. Now I don't know if I ever really knew him at all.
Someone has to pick up the pieces...

enough...

FINDING YOU by Jenna Bennett
BOOK SUMMARY:
Sex on the Beach, the do-over.I had a simple plan for what to do in Key West the second time around.
Testify at the trial of the rapist I helped catch last year.
Make sure he gets locked away for the rest of his natural life, so he can never, ever hurt another girl.
Wait for my BFFs to get to town, so we can celebrate.
And stay far away from Ty Connor, because three months after breaking up with him, I still don’t know whether being with him is worse than being without him.
Spring Break, take two.
All of the above? Out the window.
Turns out testifying is a lot harder than I thought it would be.
Not only is the rapist I helped catch last year not locked away for the rest of his life, he’s on the loose and looking for me.
Oh yeah, and it’s definitely harder being without Ty than being with him, especially when I have to watch him with someone else.
Welcome to my world.
My Thoughts:
When I read Before Me, it was an all right read. It wasn't my favorite between first three books. So, I was a little worry and didn't know what to expected with Finding You. I must say that I enjoyed Cassie and Ty's story. However, I will say this again, I wish We got hear Ty's side of the story. Finding You is still a good read, but I think it would have been better if you got Ty's side. I liked the fact that we had the bad guy escaping and wanting to capture Cassie and finish what he wanted to do. It add to the danger. Ending wasn't a true happy ending, but kind of happy for now ending. Overall, it was a pretty good quick read. I think that if you liked Before Me, you will enjoy Finding You.
