With who I thought would be a cross-breed sort of love interest (athlete, artist, introvert and gamer) definitely felt more my speed. Fitz really did have dynamic hero written all over him.


Elle Kennedy gave me the introduction I never knew I wanted, and although I admittedly come prepped with mixed opinions, the story, for the most part, reads effortlessly.

And I'm quite pleased by the semi-conquest in this stealthy turn of events.Ĭollege romance isn't my usual fare but after reading this I know I've been missing out. The author seems to have seemingly, surreptitiously lit me up with interest, and I'm hereby regarding The Chase as an invitation to keep up the Kennedy chase. I have a sixth sense sensation that the right pick will sashay its way onto my favourites list. While the ambivalence was fierce, so now is my feeling remarkably adrenalised in the same breath, because I'm nothing short of trusted that Kennedy's collection of NA romance will hold something for me. Like clockwork they did, and I share that I'm definitely untroubled by this offshoot. Still, by comparison, my next point might seem presumptuous, premature and obnoxious as I three star this and additionally confess to now considering myself an Elle Kennedy appreciator who's itching to wolfishly browse through her backlist but that string of events did indeed happen. Through perhaps 70% of The Chase's length I was in a commiserating state of mind, and in a fit of long-length pique, I felt exasperated with a romance that seems to sit on its own potential and squanders it in unison. Initially I did have a lot of affection for the story - like I mentioned, the readability is positively page-turning and I was ready to root for an irresistible, dynamic, opposites-attract college courtship - but both its impact and what is supposed to be the centrepiece of any romance falls dormant with its inability to reach the heights it could have. Excuse the dramatic nature of what I'm about to say but how deeply I planned to love the lifeblood out of this book. As an expected four or five star read, I can't say that this reader isn't gutted that It comes to you decorated with three. While those three stars do come flush with great book energy, strong readability and charactered by an effective college setting with fun, age-appropriate characters, its soaring potential meets a rising resistance that sabotages what I dare to say could have been a sublime romance of high place and steep ground. I emerge bearing a crescendo of contrary contemplation for The Chase.
