Under My Care (Chase Care Book 3)Under My Care by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Pete Walter is part of Chase Security and Care, when he is woken up to a call for a rescue mission he is up at the plane. Walking through the plan he will need to implement as the medical director in order to keep the men and there recuses safe, but when it is revealed he will in the area of Rowena Andersen , the woman who has been a part of his heart from the day they met and time they spent together.

Rowena returned back to her home town to be the local doctor in the hospital, although she is divorced and with two children to support she tries not to remember the time in the army and a particular man who stole her heart and that the regrets eat away at her daily with the secret she has kept for so long, but when a blizzard threatens the hospital and a emergency arrival, can she trust herself when her past arrives in the present and can she hope for a future?

This book is the third in the series and can be read as a stand alone story, although to be really honest who would as this series is brilliant. I loved this story and the way that Pete and Rowena finally found each other after all this time. The chemistry between them is off the page and them getting to rekindle the friendship and love is lovely to read.

The story is fast paced and is full of twist and turns with drama added in for good measure,. The characters are rich and well developed which enhances the story as you read the struggles of both characters. The only downfall I have is there is a lot of medical jargon and although this did not detract from the story it did feel quite heavy in certain parts of the story. I loved the way the author added the myths and legends of the area into the story and this just added an extra layer to the whole mystery of the novel.

I definitely can’t wait to read the next instalment in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another book that takes us back to the Chase Care Center. This is also the 3rd book in the series. I will say that I was not disappointed by this book at all. There seemed to be trauma after trauma or something happening at the turn of every page. It made this book a really quick read because I had to keep turning the pages in order to find out what happened next or how they decided to proceed with doing something. The fact that the two main characters had worked together years previously gives you all the feels. The blizzard is only the tip of the iceberg on what happens in this book. If you like a fast paced love story with some steam and intrigue, I highly suggest this book. The characters give the reader everything from heroic actions to dee character growth. I was not disappointed by this book at all and it kept with the others in the series with the amount of action and resolution it has. You can read this book by itself before reading the others in the series, however, having the knowledge from the first two books gives you the back story on how things are and how they came to be. I would highly suggest reading the other two books first because they are just that good and you will want to read every book in this series. It is a fast paced read that kept me turning pages.

Under My Care (Chase Care Book 3)

This is the second book in thus series I have read and as with the first I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was going to happen between the Chase guys and the evil they are up against.

Definitely be prepared to deal with a tough part of the story, it shook me up a bit while reading. I wasn’t expecting it at all.

Peter and Rowena hadn’t seen one another in seventeen years since they were active duty in Afghanistan. They have a lot to catch up on on top of saving lives and fighting a group of evil and greedy locals.

Definitely worth the time to read but brace yourself.

The author did another amazing job on this story. Who knew that Brandon and Callie would have this chemistry together? I love how Callie looked at Brandon with this desire and looked at him like art or even more. This relationship was a crazy one because in between the steam was Callie’s bother and Brandon is his best friend. Talk about a roller coaster for Callie. This book had me to the top with wanting to know what would happen. Amazing story from the Author can’t wait to read the next series.

Most of this authors stories have been hit or miss for me. I almost always give her another chance because that story might be the one I love. Sadly this one is a miss for me. There is a lot of titled/military characters and while some of that information is useful mostly especially on secondary characters its not needed. Also this is full of medical procedures and medical jargon. To me that all takes away from the story and gives unnecessary information and I get bored and start flipping pages. The connection between characters and the suspense in here was nice. That Silas is one dark guy.

This is the second one in this series I have tried and I won’t be trying anymore. I will give this author another try on her next series.

This is the 3rd book in the Chase Care Series. Even though it is part of a series it can be read as a standalone. This story is an amazing mix of medical emergency, danger, Romance and secrets from the past being revealed.
I loved both our leading character Peter Walter and Rowena Anderson.
Our character have history together, sparks flew and chemistry was so strong all those years ago when they were working together.
Fast forward and Peter is still risking his life to save people and Rowena returned home to work at the hospital. Neither expected to see each other again. Until a mission with casualties and a storm means they have to arrive at Rowena’s hospital for treatment.
When Peter and Rowena meet again the chemistry is back instantly but can they rekindle their spark from years before? And what happens when secrets from the past could change both their lives.
Add to the romance the danger of a kidnapping that went wrong and a very dangerous man on the loose it just adds an dangerous element to the story.

Can Peter and Rowena rekindle their love from all those years ago? Can they survive the impending storm both in reality and emotionally. When you take a vow to protect and care do you do that at the risk of your own life?

This story is rollercoaster of emotions giving you highs and lows and throwing in some danger to keep you on the edge of the seat. This author never fails to keep the reader engaged and captivated by the stories and the people that are created.

Under My Care (Chase Care Book 3)Under My Care by R.L. Dunn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Under my Care is the third book in the Chase Care Series. It follows the story of Peter Walter the Clinical Facility Director for Chase Care. This role is a bit different from past ones where he has been a physician assistant and a pararescue jumper for the Air Force, but it is far from keeping him out of danger. The book starts with a bang as Pete is on a mission to save a mother and daughter who have been kidnapped.

The mother is unable to be saved by the time Pete and his team arrive and only the young daughter, Linde is left behind. The building is on fire, so they rush to rescue her from the burning building, but Linde and Pete are now in need of urgent medical care. The team is forced to land their helicopter at the nearest hospital after a blizzard hits the area. The ER is busy as other local residents have sought shelter from the blizzard and need urgent medical care. One patient in need of urgent care just happens to be the young daughter of the bad guys.

When Pete arrives at the hospital, he comes face to face with the beautiful woman he has never forgotten. He has not seen her since an unforgettable mission in Afghanistan. A mission that left them both hurt and left their lives in turmoil. Dr. Rowena Anderson has moved herself and her two sons back to her family’s ranch in Montana to keep them safe. She is now working as an Emergency Room Doctor at Guardian Hospital. When Dr. Rowena sees Pete again, she realizes that secrets are hard to keep buried. Her and Pete must work together to decide what their future will be. Will they be able to survive the chaos and pursue the chemistry between them?

This book will grab your attention and suck you into the storyline from the beginning. It is fast paced with so much going on at once that it is almost impossible to catch your breath. The characters of Rowena and Pete were relatable, and you could feel the chemistry between them. It was interesting to see how their story would unfold. Both were strong, independent, and unafraid to look danger in the eye. This book had it all from the heart racing, nail biting action, suspense, danger, and intrigue to the romance, love, passion, and chemistry between characters. I am anxious to read book four in this series.

I have been waiting for the next book in this series to be released and the author did not disappoint with Under My Care! It was everything I hoped for and more. I loved Pete and Rowena’s story, it was jam packed full of action, suspense, danger and so much more. It definitely had me turning the pages to find out what was going to happen next for sure! I loved the dual POV for the telling of this story – for me as a reader it means I can get to understand both of the characters.
I am so excited for more from this author she definitely writes stories that either have you on the edge of your seat or swooning from the romance!

⭐️⭐️⭐⭐ Book Review

Under My Care is the third installment of the Chase Care Series. Although part of a series, this can be read as a standalone without any confusion. This medical romantic thriller features heroes with hearts and healing hands. Pete Walter and Rowena Andersen share quite the history. Years ago they were in the Air Force together where they endured many obstacles that caused tension between the two. When they are reunited during an emergency situation the chemistry immediately resurfaces.

If you are a lover of medical dramas, this one’s for you. Full of secrets, evil intentions, and risks this medical romance thriller will have you sitting on the edge of your seat, frantically flipping pages, while you impatiently try to determine what happens next. The characters are strong and full of adventure. The steamy scenes are definitely geared towards a mature 18+ audience. I am in the medical field, and these medical dramas always draw me in. I don’t regret it! This was my first time reading a novel by R.L. Dunn, and it won’t be my last! I can’t wait to get my hands on the remainder of this series.

This book is full of action and adventure! The book is set in a small rural hospital amidst a brutal blizzard. I love to watch medical dramas, so the setting of this book is a bonus for me. The two main characters are star-crossed lovers who have been reunited by a crisis. This book contains themes of native mysticism and abuse of power.

When childhood friends / loves meet again it’s almost as if it’s a different life. A world away from one they once shared together. Would they be able to conquer the obstacles of love like Brandon’s friends? I had to know ! Captivated by the details I was easily able to paint a picture in my head.

C. R. Alam’s book His Forever Muse, The Echo Series Book #2 continues the story of Brandon and unfolds the mystery behind the one that stole his heart, which was hinted at in Book #1. I love that this book opens with Rae and Dean having their first child Maya and the fact that Brandon got to be there with Rae when she needed him most. Watching their happiness, Brandon is reminded that something is missing in his life, and this leads him to travel around the world searching for what he is missing. What a coincidence that he runs into Callie (Curtis’s big sister, who Brandon hasn’t seen in 15 years) while he is visiting Chris at his resort in Morrocco. Will Brandon be able to reconnect with his long-lost love, or will her haunted past pull her away from her past love? What is she hiding from Brandon, and her family, that caused her to go quiet for all these years? If you are a fan of The Echo Series, this is a must-read that jumps right in with the drama, the romance, and the amazingly developed characters that we have grown to know and love as well as some new ones that we get to meet.

Brandon is missing something in his life, although he is successful in his career he has lost something inside who drives his creative flare. When he sees everyone around him falling in love and having there forever lives he wishes he could find that himself and then complete the half that’s missing.

While talking about his unsettled spirit his friend, Rae suggests while the band in on a break for him to go and explore the world and try and centre himself to find the missing link. Although he was not expecting that to be in the shape of a blast from his past, Callie.

Callie has had a past she would rather forget, although she has a life she has always wanted there is always that fear deep down it will all be taken away from her, so when a business trip throws her back in her past and the one man who got away, has she got the strength and trust to follow her heart.

As Brandon and Callie reconnect can they both overcome there own histories to make a new future with each other?

Oh my lord, this book was explosive and well written with the story that powers along and draws you into the story and feel every emotion which is felt with each character. This story has triggers of abuse but the writing is brilliant and you end up heartbroken for Callie and feel like she deserves Brandon and that only thing of “What if” is a potent emotion.

I have always wanted to see if Brandon got his true one as I loved his character in book 1 and his optimism in that story, so it was wonderful and heart breaking in this story. Callie was a great equal to Brandon and her strength of character came across within the writing and words written, the emotions you have reading the past of her was just gut wrenching but it is great to see her have a happily ever after.

I can’t wait to read the next book for Chris’s story, he pops in and out of the first two books but there is a brilliant story just under the surface which I can’t wait to read.

You’ll have to pick up the book to find out, but it is worth it.

The Echo Hearts Series really pulls at the heartstrings. And His Forever Muse is no different. Unlike book one this book has some dark themes of abuse. So proceed with caution. If you look past that the author delivers a wonderful story.
Callie and Brandon grew up together. Curtis being her little brother and Brandon’s best friend they did a lot together as kids. So one would think these two took a shot then. Not quite she pushed him away and he walked away to make her happy.
What happens when these two meet again, 15 years later?
Well I can tell you sparks fly immediately. The comfort of home they got from each other was wonderfully written. Unfortunately Callie has some secrets that she knows she needs to share, but how? Well when he biggest nightmare is starring her in the face while looking at Brandon with disdain, she knows she has no choice.
Will he run?
Where will they go from here?
She knows he deserves better than the baggage she carries, but will that matter to him?
The author navigates this story effortlessly, even with the dark undertones. I look forward to the next book in the series. And though I say that you don’t have to read book 1 to read book 2. It works wonderfully as a standalone novel.

His Forever Muse (The Echo Series Book 2)

I had absolutely no doubt I was going to love this book as soon as I finished the first book. Brandon was a mystery to me and I wanted, no needed, the answers to my questions.

Callie has so much strength even if she didn’t realize it. She was able to escape a Mother who was never satisfied and constantly overbearing and start a life of her own in college and then in Paris.

There are so many things I enjoyed about this book, but I think Callie’s grandmother stole my heart. They way she talked about Brandon when he was on stage definitely had me laughing.

Love the long lost friend/ love story between Brandon and Callie and I’m looking forward to the next book. I may or may not have it on my calendar.

Great story. Calliope’s decision to run away from Phillipe was the best decision of her life. I am so glad that she gave Brandon another chance. And Curtis, he deserved more of her anger since he was a jerk but it was heartwarming to see Calliope and Curtis back together.

Calliope was never the apple of her mother’s eye. Callie often felt that she was the bane of her mother’s existence. That is how she treated Callie, strict rules, high expectations, constant pressure to be the best and perfect. Callie walked away from her parents, brother and friends to start a new life. It wasn’t what she expected. Callie was deceived by a man she trusted and ended up in an abusive relationship until she had reason enough to leave.

Brandon was Callie’s best friend growing up. Well, her brother’s best friend. Somewhere along the line Brandon fell in love with Callie but never told her. It was too late when she disappeared out of their lives. During a trek of self rediscovery, Brandon reconnects with Callie. Not wanting to let her get away from him this time, he follows her to her new home city of Paris. Once there, Brandon inserts himself into Callie’s life only to discover many of the secrets she has been hiding. Brandon commits to Callie despite her objections and helps her fight her ex.

I wish I could have heard Brandon play and sing. That is the only thing missing from this book, a hidden audio file of his voice. There is drama. There is action. There is a little bit of steam. There is forgiveness. There is healing. There is sooo much love. It is a good read. P.S. I knew it was the sister.

Wow! Fantastic Read. This is Book 2 in the Echo Series and I highly recommend reading this series in order as you meet Brandon Rossi in Book 1. At first, I was not sure how I felt about Brandon from Book 1 then continuing to his story in Book 2..but I can say now that after reading this story…. I love his character so much.

This story is of Brandon and Callie….they knew each other since childhood always together with Callie’s brother, Curtis. Growing up, things get complex…..Callie’s parents are hard on her always expecting the best, Brandon always there to support Callie when she needs him the most. Time separates Callie and Brandon…but many years later they reconnect in Morocco.

Brandon is in a successful band, but also loves being artist and drawing in his heart. Callie works for an Art Gallery strives to work hard to prove she is not weak. Callie has gone down from the ashes of being beaten down verbally, emotionally, mentally and physically by a powerful man to rise up and being a strong, independent woman. Callie shares her story to Brandon……all Brandon wants to do is be there for her. Will Callie’s powerful ex get between Callie and Brandon?

This story is fantastic…romance, danger, family, intrigue and some twists I did not see coming and second chances. I am so looking forward to Book 3 in this series (it cannot come soon enough!).

Calliope has a past that can break some people. She has endured physical and emotional abuse at the hands of a man who claimed to love her…and her family supported their relationship not knowing all that was going on. So, when she runs into the man that was a boy she loved when she was younger, their sparks are instantly present. But, with everything going on in her life and their past, can she see where their relationship could go as adults?
Brandon is currently in an artistic slump…so he turns to traveling to get his creative juices flowing. When he runs into his friend’s sister, who he had a thing for almost 15 years ago, he wants to get to know the woman he sees before him. Together, they will have to overcome a jealous brother, a conniving ex out for custody of their daughter, and other b.s. from the past that threatens to keep them apart.
This is the second book in the series, and it is well written like the first one. This one picks up a couple of years after the first…but can definitely be read as a standalone. Brandon is a protector at heart and it shows. Callie is strong and resilient…and she is an easy character to love. I enjoyed their story and look forward to the next book in the series.

⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review

“I see fire. Passion. Power. Do I make you feel weak now? Because I don’t see a weak woman at all.”

His Forever Muse is the second installment of The Echo Series. This friends to lovers, second chance at love, novel is full of suspense, spice, and strong family support. Brandon Rossi has just completed a long tour with his rock band. Reflecting on his current life, his friend Rae encourages him to travel and work on his art. While in Morocco visiting his friend Chris, he runs into an art gallerist, Callie Chen-Bisset. Callie and Brandon knew each other as small kids. This blast from the past has Brandon in a tizzy. He thinks Callie is the “one he let get away.” Will this visit reignite a spark from the past?

Despite being a part of a series, His Forever Muse can be read as a standalone. (Although you won’t want to miss out on installment one: Echoing Hearts) I love that Alam can write about such hard topics with such sensitivity. (TW: Domestic Violence) During the fifteen years that Callie and Brandon were apart, Callie endured some horrible events that no woman should ever have to live through. Her strength and courage to fight for what is right in her life is inspiring. Her family support is amazing. Popo was one of my favorite characters. And Ella’s relationship with Brandon stole my heart. Overall, this entire series has roped me in. I can’t wait to see what Alam has in store for her readers next.

In this story we get to root for Brandon and Callie as they reconnect from being childhood friends. This story has romance, suspense, friendship, family and so much more. The author did an exceptional job writing about a tough subject and also pulling you into the story. This is a must read to find out more about Callie and Brandon and there are also some other great characters in this story. I highly recommend this book.

This 2nd book in the Echoing Hearts series is even better than the 1st one ! I was truly hoping Brandon would get his own story & I’m over the moon that he did ! Beautifully written characters & complex layers to their relationships make their story heart wrenching & lovely. Callie is incredibly brave & strong. It is such a relief to read a DV situation & enjoy the survivor powering through without awful details . And of course I’m such a sucker for true love & happy endings . C.R. Alam is truly talented storyteller & gifted writer, & I can’t wait to read more of her work !

His Forever Muse (The Echo Series Book 2) by C.R. Alam – Review by Dr. Anya Schultz

His Forever Muse (Book 2 of The Echo Series)His Forever Muse by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

His Forever Muse is the second book in The Echo Series. In the first book we met Rae and Dean, but we also met Rae’s best friend Brandon. Brandon Rossi is the front man in a famous band, Canis Major. However, Brandon is also an artist and at the beginning of the book seems to have lost his way. He is visiting Rae while waiting to give birth and she helps him realize that maybe he needs to recharge his batteries. He decides it is time to rediscover himself and get back to having motivation to keep creating, creating music and art. On his travels, he ends up in Morocco, which wasn’t on his original journey, however, this stop leads him to a long lost friend. Calliope Chen-Bisset (Callie), his bestfriend and bandmate’s sister showed up to consult on some art for a new project when they are reunited. Brandon and Callie grew up together and were very good friends until she went to college. When speaking about their past I think both were closer then they ever realized and depended on each other, but as in many situations life happens. Now that they have reunited, neither of them are wanting to let go. The problem is though, Brandon lives in New York and Callie in Paris. Callie is fighting a past that won’t seem to let her go, and Brandon is trying to keep the past from slipping through his fingers again. Each seem to be realizing that they have an energy together that they have never felt with anyone else. There lives are so far apart, but Brandon refuses to let her go again, but will her past keep her from moving forward and letting him in? Is he ready to really give up his entire life to make sure he stays in hers?
I really enjoyed book 2. I was already loving Brandon in the first book. He is an honest, down to earth, smart, artistic, gentleman who is a romantic at heart. In every ounce of this book he was respectful, loving, patient, and just what every woman would dream of. Callie was a great character too. She is brave, strong, and finding herself once again as a force to be reckoned with. The chemistry the two had jumped off of the page. You could truly feel the love they had for each other. The author described the feelings in a great way where you could feel the strength at times it took to hold back, or how much hurt they were dealing with. I will say the first love scene, wow!!! Before they even get to the main course she is approaching him like a piece of art and the process of taking her time absorbing everything this man had to offer – okay sign me up – HOT!! Definitely excited for book 3!

His Forever Muse (The Echo Series Book 2) by C.R. Alam – Review by Vanessa Estrada

Vanessa Estrada rated a book ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is the second book I’ve read by this author and it’s also the second book in this series, and I loved it. The writing is great, really pulls you in and makes you care about the characters you are reading about. I don’t usually like brothers best friend trope but this author knows how to write it and I was pleasantly surprised! I thought the rock star thing was going to be too cheesy but nope! Just the right amount of cheese lol
