I loved reading this book. This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book I picked up from her. Her writing skills and attention to details bring her stories to life. This book is no different. This is a fast paced, engaging story that is shorter but packs a punch. A story where two people have great chemistry but life gets in the way. Will these two figure out things and be able to have a life together? I enjoyed Katie and Chase’s growth throughout the story. It made the story easy and entertaining for me.
