Chasing a Dream
She was running from a nightmare...
Tess Sinclair must hide. Hunted by a powerful man who wants her dead, Tess flees her Texas home in search of anonymity, safety, and a new life. When a hired gunman catches up with her, a handsome stranger intervenes. But can she trust the blue-eyed cowboy who appoints himself her guardian?
He was chasing a dream...
Nothing could stop Justin Boyd from his pursuit of a music career in Nashville - except a woman in peril. Haunted by his sister's murder, Justin can't walk away from Tess until he knows she's safe. Yet the stakes in this game of vengeance are higher than he ever imagined, and the price for freeing Tess might be his own life.

Chasing a Dream
Tess just had to get away from her husband. Except Randall wasn't really her husband, it's just what he liked to tell people. After all, he owned her. But not anymore. She had left him. After discovering the extent of his evil she couldn't stay with him another minute. But how do you get away from someone who has connections everywhere? She only knew that she had to run far, fast and quietly. While on her journey she encounters Justin. He is on his way to Tennessee to live his dream of being a singer. As they spend time together they begin to have feeling for one another. But Randall has his henchmen hot on their trail. Randall wants Tess back and to teach her that no one leaves him. But Justin has other ideas. Tess will have to
find the strength to be with the man of her dreams.
Review: I really enjoyed this book. It had so many exciting elements. Suspense, romance and plenty of sexual tension and sexy scenes. The story is well written and flows easily. It was like being on a sweet roller coaster ride with twists, turns and plenty of ups and downs. I can easily recommend this book as a great read.

I liked the book. I was sucked into the story & it kept me engrossed. Something I needed to help pass the time. I kept thinking about it, even when I wasn't reading it. Because of this book, I added a new shelf to my bookshelves: Causes. This definitely has a cause: domestic abuse.
It had a very satisfying ending. I would have given it a 4, except I skipped pages because of "explicit sex." Ya, I know, it depends on one's definition. But in my mom's Talking Books catalogs, that notation would have been added to the description. Voyeurism is not something I am comfortable with.

I really liked this book, it was a great romance suspense. It was a definite page turner with lots of action! It's written in third person limited POV which isn't my favourite but when written well like this book was I don't mind it, it was similar to Linda Howard whom I love!! I will definitely read more from this author and I would recommend this book to any romance suspense fan ;)

Tess is a woman on the run and Justin is the man who helps her. The story was good and gripping but I felt it lacked something. Still I would recommend it to romantic suspense fans.

Not bad for a free book (Pixel of Ink).

The book started out good and sucked me in but got long and drawn out in parts.

This was a kindle free read. I liked the characters, but the story was not believable and it was repetative at times. All in all it was a light romantic suspense and it was entertaing enough.

A great story, well written about domestic violence and a mystery and love story all in one. I really enjoyed this book. I did skip over some graphic details, but it didn't change the story.
