This was a very intense story. You have romance, suspense, action, and some family drama; who needs more for a pretty good story. Brent and Aubrey are both coming from some intense family issues. Having to deal with issues on his ranch all he wants is to have his family safe. He heads out to Oregon to solve the mystery of what his mom’s note meant. Aubrey is Aubrey, you’ll have to read the story to understand. Together, they deal with a crazy dude stalking them and Brant finding family members he never knew. These two seemed to be made for each other. The story brought them together in such a realistic way. The book is is so well-written that every thing flows smooth and you can just read the story without feeling lost. That’s one of my favorite things about a book. It’s a story you really should read. Give it a shot. I recommend it.

Caught in Midnight Shadows (the Caught Series Book 4) by Sharleen Scott is a suspense romance story. The suspense is palpable in this game of cat and mouse. I was fully engrossed in this mystery the action and drama had me intrigued and hanging on every word. I enjoy the way Sharleen masterfully weaves the threads putting together each of the pieces that make the story come alive. I also love that the story is told in several POV’s which gives the story that much more richness. I don’t nearly enjoy a book half as much anymore if it’s not told in dual/multiple POV’s. Any way I digress.
Aubrey Chartrand just wants to ride but one sexy stranger enters her world and has her rethinking her decision. But is she now in danger or was she a target all along?
Brant Bellamy has left everything behind to find a murder but he finds that not only himself but one sexy bartender, is in danger.
This series should be on your list and should not to be missed. Reviewed by @jennadb

This is a great romance story thats fast paced. I really enjoyed it because it has a mixture of romance, danger, murder and suspense. The characters are really well written and they really make the story come alive.

Both of them have suffered great loss in their lives which draws them together but with a peeping Tom seemingly victimising Audrey and someone out to destroy Brent and his family, is their connection strong enough to withstand all that is thrown at them and build on their love. Or will the danger drag them apart forever.

This book was a must read for me, it was so well written and defiantly had a strong engagement of the characters that made me invest even more into reading the novel! I loved the story line, as I am a hopeless romantic, but I also love my thrillers, and this one had all that and more! Loved this novel!
I was really hooked at the start, Aubrey and Brant’s meet up was one for the books, literally! You could sense the chemistry and the attraction between the two of them upon first meet. It was for sure, undeniable, even if both characters did not want to admit to it at first glance. Both were coming from a different path of life, and did not want any sort of romance of any kind at this points in their lives. Perhaps though, life would play its part and bring these two souls together? Things happen that relate more less with Brant and his mothers conversation at the very beginning. What ties would that bring in though? As the depth of the story continues on, it gets very real and fast. I am not just taking of passion and romance either, there was someone at prowl that meant to cause harm to people, and to stop the person, as well as protect one another, Aubrey and Brant would have to rely on one another, truly.
For myself, I loved the quick speed of how this story takes off. I loved the small town romance components to this story as well, and I defiantly loved the danger, defiantly added to the character development and the bond they had, mentally and intimately. I did love the character development and how you really got to grow with Brant and Aubrey, but for me I especially loved the component of sometimes life does not go the way you planned, but it turns out even better! Again, loved this book!
Again, for me this was a novel I very much enjoyed, and I will be re-reading it in the future again for sure. How could I not? It was so thrilling and had lights of it it’s own intrigue. It was a good read, that brought on the wonderful romantic aspect as well as romantic suspense. This novel is a must read, no doubt!

Caught in Midnight Shadows by Sharleen Scott is the fourth book in the Caught Series. This a great book that is definitely all about the characters. They are are engaging and relatable right from the word go. I easily bought in to the connect between them. The whole story focused on them and for me it added more depth to the whole book. The story itself was quite an easy read but one that is thoroughly enjoyable. I loved the easy pace it had and I found no problem in juts losing myself in the book for an afternoon. This is a great story that is worth the read.

This is the fourth book in this series which is just as great if not better than the previous three books. I highly suggest reading the previous books in this series as well to help your enhancement of this series. This is a romance story that is fast paced and hard to put down. It is an engaging story where the characters bring the story to life. They are relatable and made the story easy, fun and entertaining to read. This is a story about Brant and his mother’s final words to him. He is in search of a man who worked on their ranch years ago. What he didn’t expect was to meet Aubrey. She was going to get on her bike and not look back until she meets him. Now they are faced with a stalker, a murderer and a chance at something neither one was expecting to find. They are really great characters. I enjoyed what they brought to the story and just made the story for me. Their growth and the growth of the plot was great throughout the story. You don’t want to miss this one. I highly recommend this book.

“Find him and make it right.” His mother’s last words become Wyoming rancher Brant Bellamy’s singular goal. On the heels of his mother’s tragic and suspicious death, he sends his kids to their mom in Chicago and heads to the Oregon Coast to find a drifter who worked on the Bellamy Ranch forty years ago.
Meeting a woman like Aubrey Chartrand wasn’t part of his plan.
After years of taking care of her elderly aunt, bartender Aubrey Chartrand plans to ride her new Harley-Davidson out of Angel Beach, Oregon, and may never return. Meeting Brant Bellamy has her reconsidering the decision. He’s sexy, chivalrous, and unlike anyone she’s met before.
But three kids and a cattle ranch aren’t part of her plan.
They are drawn together when both seem to be targeted by a stalker who showed up in town at the same time as Brant. Is it a coincidence, or has the murderer come to Angel Beach to finish what he started?
Sharleen Scott lives in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with her husband, Brett, a bossy dog, and two spoiled cats.

I just finished reading Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott (book 3 in the Caught series).
Samantha Dylan and Jace Colton have so much chemistry together, right from the start! It almost leaps out from the pages!
I previously read the first 2 books in this series and I loved both of them.
Here is something that I wrote in my review of the second book : “Although I was fully smitten and infatuated with Clay and Harlie – I have got to say that Tallie and Tom are now my new favorite couple (at least until the next book, haha).”
Well… Here I am, admitting that this third installment in this series has again, taken me to new heights!
Samantha and Jace have indeed become my new favorite – and this book had so many moments where I was trying to guess the end but I really didn’t see or anticipate where this book ended up taking me! What a wild ride!
Each book, was better than the last! How? I honestly don’t know as I thought the first 2 books were epic!
Sharleen Scott is an author that you should definitely subscribe to and look for.

Caught in Make Believe is the third book in the Caught series. It can be read as a standalone. If you want to get more background info on some of the characters mentioned, to bring things together for you a bit more, I recommend reading the first two books.
I really fell in love with this book. I think it actually might be my favorite out of the three that I’ve read. I loved the complexity of Jace’s character and the resilience of Sam’s character. The overall story line was well done. A little romance, a little suspense, a little mystery, a little adventure…makes for a great getaway from reality. I was so into it that I finished it in a day!

Caught in Make-Believe is the next mind blowing instalment in Sharleen Scott’s The Caught Series! I hope it is not going to be the last one as there are quite a few other characters there that I am sure I am not the only one who would like to get their own story! You could read this story as a standalone though you would get so much more out of it having read the first two stories in the series as you will understand the dynamics better. Sharleen has given us a mix of romance, suspense, mystery, second chances, action and …. love. There are such intricacies and layers that sometimes when you try to figure out who when and what you realize that you should just sit back and enjoy the ride that Samantha Dylan and Jace Colton are taking us on! Samantha runs the town’s bakery and is friends with Masterson family (that we met in the first and second book) and who has decided to take a break from romantic relationships after another one of hers tanks. Jace has been ‘on the road’ for the last five years and has return to the town to face his past – “Pistols or swords at dawn” type of showdown. He knows his stay would be temporary but you never know what will happen when the fate interferes in the form of busted pipes and literary aspirations! I hope you will pick up a copy and disappear into the small town Oregon with all those intriguing characters so you can find out if Samantha and Jace will find their happily ever after!

Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott Four Stars
Caught in Make-Believe is the third book in the Caught series by Sharleen Scott. This book can be read as a standalone, but I would recommend that you read this series. In order. There are some recurring characters from the first two books and all of the books are great reads. I do think that this story is my new favorite by Ms. Scott. This book is full of action, suspense, mystery and romance. It grabbed my attention on the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until I read the last. Jace and Samantha have great chemistry, but have many obstacles in their way. The twists and turns kept me guessing what was going to happen next throughout the whole book. I highly recommend this book, series and author and look forward to reading more from Ms. Scott in the future.

Caught in Make-Believe, by Sharleen Scott, is the third book of the Caught series. This romantic suspense was a well written novel featuring Jace Colton and Samantha Dylan. Two unlikely characters tossed together that work well with amazing chemistry. Each book within this series was better than its predecessor and Caught in Make-Believe is no different – best of the series! Sharleen Scott’s writing technique continues to improve along with that the amazing characters, sequences and stories! This author is one to watch and this is one of my favorite series this year!!

Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott is the third book in the Caught series and I hope not the last. There are questions i have that I want answered about a few people and I think Jax would make an amazing story. I would also love to see the grown up versions of the next generation.
I fell in love with Samantha in the first book as Harlie’s best friend and fell in deeper love with her in this book. She’s a friend, daughter, sister and a warrior who just wants to find her happily ever after.
Jace has a lot of scars from his past and some secrets too. He comes home to Angel Beach after five years not expecting to start living again.
I enjoyed this book and series a lot, more than I had expected to. I’m hopeful that there will he more from them in the future. Fingers crossed.

A great read about the past.Jace Colton returns to Angel Beach after five years to try and rebuild .the life he lost. While there’s he meets the bubbly Samantha and is attached to her even though he won’t be staying for long. He falls for her but his past rears its ugly head. Can he put the past behind him for a new future? A great read. Well developed plot. Well developed characters like Jace cold and harsh but kind underneath or Samantha trying to keep positive despite being unlucky in love. I loved the visual detail throughout the novel in the sense of a small town with the beach and the bakery and small streets for a homely feel. Or in Emily’s house with the starfish and shells for a sense of the seaside and a conforting feel to the place. The use of suspense was well written and drawn out to perfection to make you keep reading to find out what happened in the past..I also liked the use of blog entries into the story to portray Jaces thoughts and struggles for the journalistic feel which was a lovely touch. Overall, a great read and I would give it four stars

Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott is book three of The Caught Series. This book is a romantic suspense. There is just enough mystery and suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat to find out how the story will play out until the end of the book. I suggest reading books one and two as there are some previous characters mentioned.
Samantha has been unlucky in love. She’s just about decided to give up on relationships all together. Jace’s job as an investigative journalist hasn’t been easy. Especially after the threats he’s received. Back in town after a lengthy disappearance, she meets Samantha and instantly knows he’s attracted to her. Samantha knows it’s unlikely that Jace will stay long term but despite that knowledge and the danger Jace’s presence can bring, their attraction leads to a relationship. What will the future hold for Jace and Samantha??
I really enjoyed this book. The suspense kept me riveted and I couldn’t wait to finish the book just to find out what would happen!

Caught in Make-Believe (The Caught Series Book 3) By Sharleen Scott. Another fantastic example of a romantic suspense story that had me hooked from beginning to end. While you can definitely read these out of order without confusion I recommend reading them all because they are all great. This one might have just gained the title of my favorite in this series but like I said each one is amazing. The author knows how to capture readers and keep them guessing. I was on the edge of my seat more than once that’s for sure. Each character brings something unique to the story and they are complex and relatable. If you want a great suspense story then this author is a go to for sure. I’m giving this book a five star review and highly recommend it to anyone.

Caught in Make-Believe is book three in the Caught series by Sharleen Scott. This series is crazy addictive and just gets better and more memorable.
Jace is an investigative journalist that is caught in a dangerous maze that could cost him his life. He knows things dangerous people will do anything to keep hidden, which forces him to flee for his safety. He meets Samantha and the first meeting did not go so well. She is a sassy bakery manager who is over men who sprout empty promises and colourful lies. They play a dangerous juggling game and the anticipation of what may happen to them is highly suspenseful and will have a reader riveted to the words on each page with narrow minded intensity.
Caught in Make-Believe is a perfect continuation of this wonderfully entertaining and dramatic series. A emotionally charged and creative drama that leaves a lasting impression and a thirst for more. 4 stars.

Caught in Make-Believe was a great 5 star read and book three in the Caught Series. I have been reading this series from the start and I was really excited to read this next book in the series.
We meet Samantha first, she runs her own bakery and was recently engaged and then her fiance decided to disappear for a week. When he show’s back up with another woman she sends him on his way, needless to say she is very unlucky in relationships and has no desire to start another one.
In the four years she lived here, she’d gone from one loser relationship to another.
Jace is an investigative writer and has returned home to Angel Beach, but for how long? Samantha meets Jace when he comes into her bakery. Something about him draws her in and gets her attention. He’s standoffish and rude, but she may have discovered a secret of his. Jace was intrigued by Samantha, and encouraged conversation with her.
Jace and Samantha start growing closer, I enjoyed the bantering between them. They were clearly meant for each other. Overall this was a great read. I loved the connection the characters had and the suspense with a touch of danger added a great element to the story. All the secondary characters were great and Martin was adorable. Sharleen Scott has once again pulled me in and I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

This is the third book in The Caught Series and another that I have thoroughly enjoyed! It was as I expected, excellently written and full of action, suspense, drama and some romance!! It could easily be read as a standalone but I would definitely recommend the other books first as there are a few characters mentioned. Again I really enjoyed how the author was able to conceal things that were going to happen which meant I was constantly guessing how the story would unfold. I enjoyed the chemistry between the main characters Samantha and Jace and I loved reading about them. There were some good twists and turns which kept my interest throughout and also provided me with a few heart stopping moments! I thought that Caught in Make-Believe was another fantastic read from Ms Scott and I cannot wait to read more from her again in the future.

Caught in Make-Believe (The Caught Series book 3) by Sharleen Scott
5-stars
Caught in Make-Believe by Sharleen Scott is another 5-star read in her Caught series! This is the third book in the series and having read all three I can say that they could be read as standalones, however, I loved the first two books so much so I would recommend reading this series in order. Caught in Make-Believe is a suspenseful romance read that had me sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to get answers to all my questions. It’s steamy, intense, detailed, action-packed and highly entertaining.
I love how this storyline flowed seamlessly with the many POV’s. The different POV’s had me feeling really intrigued as I tried to piece everything together! This series is one I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for their next romance suspense reads. It’s one that should not be missed!

This is book three in the Caught Series. As far as I’m concerned, it’s another winner. Each book can be read as a stand-alone seeing as they focus on a different couple in each one. I highly suggest that you read the whole series because it is really good. This story focuses on Samantha Dylan, manager of Harlie’s bakery. She finds out things about her fiancé and breaks off the engagement. She’s fed up and actually considering leaving Angel Beach but then Jace Colton walks into her life.
Jace Colton has finally decided to return to Angel Beach to face some demons from his past. He needs to put them to rest. Unknowingly, someone has followed him which puts his and Samantha’s lives in danger. Secrets can destroy you, and Jace has plenty. Can Jace survive and protect Samantha as well?
Once again Sharleen Scott managed to play with my emotions. I had moments where I literally held my breath in anticipation of what was going to happen. There is a bit of mystery throughout the book which keeps you intent on piecing things together. When the author finally reveals what’s happening, it truly is a complete surprise. The story was entertaining and filled with wonderful characters. I absolutely loved this series and I’m sure you will too.

I just finished reading Caught in the Spin, by Sharleen Scott (book 2 in the Caught series).
I’m going to start by saying that before I read this one, I read the first book in this series, Caught in Cross Seas and I loved it!
And although I was fully smitten and infatuated with Clay and Harlie – I got to say that Tallie and Tom are now my new favorite couple (at least until the next book, haha).
We got to know Tom a lot and we learned a lot about his painful past – and it was obvious from the beginning of the book that you wanted nothing but the best for this man.
Enter Tallie and her son.
As Harv’s new assistant, she heads up to the Masterson-Black ranch with some paperwork, already pretty nervous about meeting music star Clay Masterson.
Little did she know she’d meet Tom Black and feel this instant attraction to this stubborn, hurting man.
I loved their relationship right from the beginning and although I wouldn’t wish a Roy Peters on anyone – I have to say that his involvement in this storyline made my adrenaline race and my temper flare!
I cannot say enough about Scott’s writing style and her unbelievable talent for taking us lucky readers on an actual rollercoaster of emotions!
I really didn’t know how she’d top the first book but somehow, she did in spades!
Bravo Sharleen Scott, bravo! Can’t wait to read the next one!

CAUGHT IN MAKE BELIEVE is the 3rd story in “The Caught Series” and I think it would be best to read the stories in order. The author is a very detailed writer and there are characters who cross over each story and common threads that connect the whole series together.
Like with the other stories in the series, it’s a character rich telling of a tale. A suspense with romance and new beginnings – very detailed and layered as the story moves along at a decent pace. There are times when I felt disconnected from the main characters and other times when I was so absorbed it was if the pages were turning themselves.
This is a complete and fulfilling series that I would recommend.

Caught in the Spin is the second book in the Caught series. It can be read as a standalone.
I can’t put my finger on why exactly, but I liked this book better than the first one. I was hooked into the story from the first chapter and the story moved at a good pace. The characters were engaging and the way the story develops really gets your emotions involved.
This story is a good mix of drama, family, and romance. There were several places in the story where I teared up a bit. Overall, it was really well done! Excellent way to relax after a long day.

Caught I the Spin is the second book in Sharleen Scott’s The Caught Series and if you have read the first book, like I, then you already met Tom Black (he is the main in this story). You can read the story as a standalone but as they are linked through the characters then I suggest that you start from the beginning! This story picks up two years after the first book. As I really liked the first book and I wanted to learn Tom’s story then I could not wait to get my hands on Caught in the Spin! Caught in the Spin is the story of Tom Black, a former bull rider, and Tallie Peters, assistant to Nashville’s premier music manager. Tom is such a good natured and too perfect of a man, and let’s not forget how hot he is! He is so opposite of Tallie who is a heck of a brave woman who has had to find her own way and the more you read the story the more you find out about both of them and the layers that the writer is using … the twist that blow our mind … you will not regret getting down with the series!

Caught in theSpin Book two in the CAUGHT series by Sharleen Scott
Four Stars
Women and men that survive abuse are amazing brave people. They truly give up everything to save themselves and their children. It takes so much courage to leave. I was so shocked by this story. Tallie and Cody were traumatized and it felt like they were going to lose the battle. Even Tom and Michael had their own battle scares and fears. It was a good story about blending families and getting through troubled times. The level of trust Tallie must have felt for Tom was amazing. After all she had experienced it’s a wonder she could at all. The author did a great job planning this story out. There was no rush and every line flowed smoothly.

Caught in the Spin by Sharleen Scott is the second book in the Caught Series. I didn’t know if I could like this book more than the first but I think I did, even if by just a little bit.
I was intrigued by Tom in book one, felt he had a story that effected him deeply and I was so right. It was a better story than I could have imagined. We all have that one person. From our past that we still think of from time to time. It could be a smell or a song that brings back a flood of memories. For me it’s a Guns n Rose’s song. He is hit with a huge reminder of his first love more than once.
Tallie was a hero through and through. She refused to be a victim or allow her son to be one. It wasn’t always easy for her but she didnt give up.
I want to know Jax and what happened with him before he ended up in Tennessee with Clay and his band.
Great series and looking forward to book three and maybe four??

Caught in the Spin (The Caught Series Book 2) By Sharleen Scott
This book was just as amazing as the first one if not better. We did get to meet Tom in the first book, and I knew I liked him them, and of course fell more in love with his character in this story. Tallie is also an awesome strong character with a past that comes into her present. I love the connection and attraction these two had for each other. This book drew me in from the beginning and there were some twists and turns with moments of me holding my breath. This book and this series is a wonderful read you won’t want to miss out on. The author did an exceptional job making these characters so real that I became invested in their outcome. I highly recommend this book!

Caught in the Spin (the Caught Series Book 2) by Sharleen Scott is the second book in the series, that gets better with each book. Trust me, you need to read the first book in the series as this one comes into play two years after the first book and the characters are intertwined. The plot is a little more sinister than the first, but boy, oh boy, I was captivated and enthralled and no way was I putting it down, even when work got in the way, it was all I could think about. I fell in love with Tom and Talli as I did with Clay and Harlie from the first book. In fact I fall in love with all Sharleen’s main characters. Amazing. Tom, a strong, caring, sexy man has more than physical scars, he spent years looking, years wondering, years wanting. Now he is faced with his past but never in the way he would have imagined, not in a million years. This twist brings heartache and sadness but also an unknown joy. Tallie, a beautiful, sweet soul has lived through an horrendous past but came out one hell of a strong woman. More than she knows. Unfortunately, that past has resurfaced and is making good on a promise.
It is an emotional read where sometimes there is laughter but other times there are tears. Sharleen is one author that everyone needs to read. She has definitely is a very talented lady.
