Publisher's Summary:

Charming, adventurous Zach Chase has always craved the spotlight, and now he's on the hunt for publicity for his family's storm-chasing business. So when a reality TV network approaches him with the idea for a show profiling their work, he can't resist. But the last person he expects to walk into the meeting is the former love of his life.

Production assistant Maddi Hayes was once engaged to Zach - until she was almost killed by a tornado he was out chasing. She walked away from her fiancé and their future together, convinced she'd always come second to his dangerous career.

Dreading the show and anxious over working so closely with Zach, Maddi also knows this project could mean big things for her career. If only Zach weren't still so infuriating...and so infuriatingly sexy. Can they finally let go of their stormy past? Or will the passion still raging between them win in the end?

Members Reviews:

Not my favorite by this author...

Loving the Chase was one of those books I had a love/hate relationship with. The first half was where my frustrations came into play and the second half is where all my love came came into play. For the life of me, I couldnât connect with the protagonists, and it took what felt like forever for the story to gain any kind of gumption; I was certain that this book would land on my DNF shelf.

Iâm glad I listened to my friend when she told me keep going. She was right, after I hit around the 40% mark, it didnât take me too much longer to become fully invested in Zach and Maddiâs world. *Sigh* Zachâ I loved that man from the start to finish. He was perfect book boyfriend material. And probably one of the biggest reasons I agreed to continue on. He had me hooked. Line and sinker.

Maddi, on the other hand, left me wanting majorly. I didnât see her fitting Zachâs character at all. It took me quite a while, but I was able to get past some of my annoyances, enabling me to enjoy her character a bit more. Still, with that said, she was not my favorite choice of a heroine. I just couldnât fathom why Zach even wanted to be around her most of the time. I couldnât take her constant whining about how she was done wrongâugh! No matter how hard Ms. Lovelace tried, I just never really felt Zach and Maddiâs chemistry, emotionally or physically. Compared to her other characters, they fell rather flat in execution.

The one thing I will give this couple was the wicked hot sex scene in the thunderstorm. Holy. F***!!

As always, the writing was superb. The author provided well-developed characters as well as an intriguing plot. The story line was unique, one I hadnât come across before. Loving the Chase turned out to be a great second chance romance; although, I would have preferred a little less storm chasinâ and a little more romantic chasinâ. Zach and Maddi definitely had the potential to be a strong five star read with the last half of the book proving exactly why I am so in love with this authorâs writing. However, I really had to question that love with the way the first half dragged on leaving me with no choice but to drop stars.

While I may have struggled with the connection between the two protagonists, I can't say the same about the secondary characters. I LOVED the connection and personalities of Zachâs family and friends.
