But Cassie’s ex is back and he wants her dead.

Book Two of the Chase Brothers

Cassie Gambol is on the run. In what seems like another lifetime, her ex-husband nearly ended her life and effectively ended her successful career as a vascular surgeon. But even though the justice system found him guilty of attempted murder, he fled while awaiting sentencing and Carly Sunderland became Cassie Gambol.

Fleeing Los Angeles, she heads to small and off the map Petal, Georgia to start her life again.

Shane Chase, a man who’s held himself away from commitment since his fiancée dumped him several years before knows the beautiful newcomer is hiding something. He’s wildly attracted to her strength and her underlying vulnerability as well.

But the last thing Cassie wants is another big, overwhelming man who wants to control her life. A battle begins between Shane, who knows what he wants and Cassie, who knows she needs to do everything she can to keep a distance between herself and the very handsome sheriff.

But Cassie’s ex is back and he wants her dead.

  3. 5 blue ribbons! “TAKING CHASE is the second book in Lauren Dane’s CHASE BROTHERS series. These stories are fun, fast paced, and full of heart. All of the brothers are sinfully sexy but what I really love about them is the closeness they share with their families and the absolute respect they have for their mother. You just have to love a guy who respects his mom!”

    — Chrissy Dionne, Romance Junkies

  4. Recommended Read! “I have always enjoyed when an author takes us along for a ride in a series of books and not only tells each character’s story, but also revisits the characters from earlier books. There are unfortunately only two more Chase brothers, but with Ms. Dane telling their stories, they will be worth the wait.”

    — Serena, Fallen Angel Reviews
