FRIDAY NIGHT BRIDES BY SAMANTHA CHASE
Release Date: May 3, 2016
SYNOPSIS
They’ve been friends since they were five, and modeling for Enchanted Bridal has been as much of a part of their lives as their friendship has. And this season has them seeing more than new wedding trends.
Hailey’s family owns Enchanted Bridal and she knows there’s a possibility that someday it will be hers. She’s not sure that’s the path she wants to take, but she does know that she’s been hopelessly crushing on the perfect man and bridal show model Logan Baxter III. While failing to gain Logan’s attention, she can’t seem to get rid of the less-than-perfect man – and model – Jackson Carr. He’s big and bold and tattooed – pretty much everything Hailey despises. And yet…there’s something about him that has Hailey questioning her definition of perfect.
Becca’s got a knack for dating the wrong kind of guys. When her current boyfriend publicly dumps and humiliates her, she’s devastated. Wanting to run and hide, she’s mortified that the stranger who had witnessed the entire scene is now part of the Enchanted Bridal family. But when Max Abrams offers her comfort and tells her that he thinks she’s beautiful, she has to wonder if maybe getting dumped by Mr. Wrong has finally led her to her very own Mr. Right.
Angie’s loud and feisty and completely fearless. That is until she gets dumped by the one guy she really had feeling for. It opens her up to insecurities she didn’t know she had and she’s not sure what to do about it. But when Sean Patterson comes back into her life in a big way, she’s not sure she’s ready to forgive and forget quite so easily. His persistence and her stubbornness make for an exciting chase, however, but at the end of the season, it’s ultimately up to her if she’s ready to quit running.
Ella’s been planning her perfect wedding to Dylan Graham since she was twelve. Together for thirteen years, Ella’s beginning to wonder if that number really is bad luck. She can’t focus on all that’s right in her life because all she can think about is what she may be missing. Their parents have taken over their wedding, her friends all seem to be in crisis and Dylan’s just not listening to her fears. Not one to ever make waves, she suddenly finds that that’s exactly what she’s doing and turning everyone’s life upside down in the process. The life that she once considered boring is now the one she longs for, but it may be too late.

REVIEW: FRIDAY NIGHT BRIDES BY SAMANTHA CHASE
Friday Night Brides by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I love how Samantha Chase mixes it up. She can do drama and heartache like nobody else but she also has a side that is funny and sassy. That side is put on full display with Friday Night Brides. Angie, Ella, Becca and Hailey are a close group. They have shared so much of their lives that it's only natural. When life, love and maturity start to change the dynamic of their friendships is when the chaos begins. I received an ARC of Friday Night Brides in exchange for an honest review. Getting to see a different side of Ms. Chase' personality was a real treat. I also had a blast getting to know these women. The one thing that never changes for me when reading a Samantha Chase novel is the sincerity that she puts in every single one.

REVIEW: THE SHAUGHNESSY BROTHERS: MADE FOR US BY SAMANTHA CHASE
The Shaughnessy family is a series I will be following to the last sibling. Made for Us by Samantha Chase was made for me. Ms. Chase has created a love story that is exceptionally written and rewarding to read. At the heart of this story is the strong bond of family. The upset of the sudden death of the matriach, who was the glue of the family has a different affect on each and every family member. Especially Aidan. Made for Us is Aidan's story. Aidan has a good heart. He cares deeply and for that reason he has closed himself off from finding love. The death of his mother has broken his heart and he feels that he has to take over as the nurturer after her loss. Little does he know his mom has kept the promise she made to him at fourteen She has found the perfect woman to mend his heart. But Aidan is not sure he wants to set himself up for the pain. I fell for sensitive Aidan from the very first page. The bond he and mother shared even transcended her death. Maybe that's why she led him to Zoe. Gorgeous story. I received an ARC of Made for Us in exchange for an honest review.(www.goodreads.com/review/list/2555691...)

REVIEW: LOVE WALKS IN (THE SHAUGHNESSY BROTHERS #2) BY SAMANTHA CHASE
Love Walks In by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Every so often a story comes along that makes a reader stop and take notice. It's never one specific aspect for me but the combined product that has a profound affect. Love Walks In by Samantha Chase is one of those reads. Thank you Samantha Chase for writing such a thought provoking story. Sourcebooks for publishing it and NetGalley for approving my request.
This story was a hard read for me. Beautifully written with characters that any reader can picture and love. What broke me into was the heartbreaking circumstances that left such a lasting footprint on the lives of such young vital people. Aubrey lost her dream, her family and the way she felt about herself in one instant. Hugh lost his center and closed his heart. There was a positive with Aubrey and Hugh's story they learned not to take life for granted. That is a lesson we all need to remember. A powerful story...but then again from Samantha Chase, I'd expect nothing less.

Christmas in Silver Bell Falls by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I purchased Christmas in Silver Bell Falls because I love to read Samantha Chase. After reading the synopsis I was not sure about this story. Didn't sound very interesting. As I started to read I became wrapped up in the characters. That happy feeling that you get when you open a surprise, that was what this book was for me. The holiday card setting, the perfect season and a little push from an unexpected hand made this an entertaining and fun spin on a holiday classic. Melanie made an adorable scrooge-like character and Josiah was a sexy wake-up call. Cute and sweet read.

Release Date: January 26, 2016
SYNOPSIS
She’s looking for a future with roots from her past…
For Alesha Reed, coming back to Hope Falls is bittersweet. Twenty years ago it was her home, but that was when her family was still together. Now she’s returning to take over her father’s beloved book store – Read Between the Lines – while he deals with a health crisis.

Reece Brooks has called Hope Falls home for most of his life, but when the opportunity arose to give him a little breathing room from the close-knit community, he took it.

Granted, they were only seven years old at the time, but still. Fate has brought the girl he’s never forgotten back into his life. Unfortunately, Reece is only in Hope Falls for a limited time and Alesha’s ready to lay down roots there.

REVIEW: HOPE FALLS: WILDEST DREAMS BY SAMANTHA CHASE (KINDLE WORLDS)
Hope Falls: Wildest Dreams by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Home is more than a place. It is a feeling of comfort, a sense of belonging that comes from the people around you showing love and support. Alesha to a degree had an understanding of that but, didn't feel as if she deserved the connection and care. I received an ARC of Wildest Dreams in exchange for an honest review. The contrast between Alesha wanting and needing the security of a close knit community and Reece wanting to escape from one was the focal point of the story. The story was a great metaphor for life. Sometimes the things we leave behind are central to the road we choose to travel but we always carry home in our hearts no matter where we roam. Samantha Chase has a way of wrapping the most beautiful messages within the simplest of stories. Lovely.

THE WEDDING SEASON BY SAMANTHA CHASE
SYNOPSIS
There were three guarantees in Tricia Patterson’s life:
1. Her friendship with Sean Peterson was rock solid
2. She had a career that she absolutely adored
3. This summer was going to be the death of her
With the proverbial “Always a Bridesmaid and Never a Bride” becoming her new mantra, Tricia didn’t know how she was going to survive this year’s round of weddings. Six of them this summer alone! In an attempt to ward off the pity-party, her best friend Sean gives her the perfect solution to help her get through – he’ll pretend to be her boyfriend. While not certain that was going to be of any help, Tricia’s knows it also won’t hurt.
When circumstances beyond Sean’s control keep him from coming home to Tricia’s aid, he sends his brother Ryan in his place. Four years older than his brother and his best friend, Ryan isn’t sure why these weddings are such a big deal. He’s also not sure of what the exact nature is of this relationship between Sean and Tricia. And that’s becoming a big problem because the more time he spends with Tricia, the more he realizes that she’s the one he wants to plan a wedding with.

REVIEW: THE WEDDING SEASON BY SAMANTHA CHASE
The Wedding Season is my fantasy story. I was enchanted by Tricia. Nothing can trigger her overly dramatic insecurities like weddings. Happily ever afters and Prince Charming are her Kryptonite. Just the thought sends her from level headed to neurotic. The irony is that she gets this way not because she is against the concept, but because it never seems to come her way. Could it be she is just not looking in the right places? She looks to best friend Sean to keep her in check. He is her anchor in a sea of matrimony. Could her anchor be standing in the way of her happily ever after? Samantha Chase has crafted a delightful story full of witty situations, heartwarming moments that are thought provoking and believable. A good time.

REVIEW: DUTY BOUND (THE PROTECTORS #1) BY SAMANTHA CHASE AND NOELLE ADAMS
Duty Bound by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Samantha Chase is an author that has been a regular go to for me in the past year.
What I find most appealing about her stories is that she appeals to a basic human need. The characters she creates are searching for the things we all crave: acceptance, hope and love. My familiarity with her writing is what drew me to The Protectors series. Duty Bound is a heartbreaking story. Levi is dealing with so much guilt, pain and upheaval from a traumatizing loss. Harper is suffering through the grief as well having loss her brother. Her search for answers leads her to the one man she believes can supply her with the truth. What ensues is a relationship that neither expected and secrets that could destroy the fragility of it all. Duty Bound is a little bit of a new direction for me in that it is a romantic suspense and although I have read a few, they were not written by Ms. Chase. This story is all that a reader could hope for in a good book.

How far will you go to avenge someone you love? In Honor Bound Ali risks losing everything, including her heart. With this novel I found every revelation to be better than the one before. Ali may be in over her head but the sacrifices that she makes lead her to not only answers but also love. Ali and Sebastian's story is one about learning to trust your instincts, risk your heart and all that you hold dear. This story was just as good as Duty Bound but had more of a edge of your seat feel to it.

AWW!! Have a huge place in my heart for any story has a tough as nails male dealing with young children. The main reason is because that scenario is not often used in romance. By placing Declan in a situation that was foreign to him, the author showed his vulnerabilities and insecurities. It also taught him that it was okay to experience emotion and make personal connections. I loved this story.

REVIEW: I'LL BE THERE (THE MONTGOMERY BROTHERS #6) BY SAMANTHA CHASE
I'll Be There by Samantha ChaseMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was ecstatic when I found out that Samantha Chase was releasing a new Montgomery Brothers novel. This family is such a joy that it is no hardship to visit time and again. I'll Be There is Zach's story. Zach has been successful at whatever he touches. His personality, focus, looks and even his family name has opened doors but his ambition is the key to all of his triumphs. When larger than life Zach is forced down to earth after an accident he is anything but happy. Gabriella is a formidable match for Zach. She has worked hard to accomplish her achievements and has managed to do so despite the odds. Gabriella is no pushover. She speaks her mind. With I'll be there Samantha Chase wrote a story full of triumph but she also introduced two characters afraid of letting anyone too close for fear of appearing weak. The lesson I took away from I'll Be There is that showing emotion is not weak. Emotions are a part of the maturity process that leads to a well rounded happy life. I received an ARC of I'll be There in exchange for an honest review. 10+ Stars.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
New York Times and USA Today Bestseller/contemporary romance writer Samantha Chase released her debut novel, Jordan's Return, in November 2011. Although she waited until she was in her 40's to publish for the first time, writing has been a lifelong passion. Her motivation to take that step was her students: teaching creative writing to elementary age students all the way up through high school and encouraging those students to follow their writing dreams gave Samantha the confidence to take that step as well.
When she's not working on a new story, she spends her time reading contemporary romances, playing way too many games of Scrabble or Solitaire on Facebook and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.
