Marc must face the biggest challenge of his life-convincing Liv Davis that he means to love her forever.

Until he kisses Olivia Davis and realizes head over heels may not be such a bad thing after all!

Can Liv open her scarred heart for this younger ladies man? She loves Marc more than she can begin to admit but she's terrified of being rejected again. Marc faces a challenge greater than he's ever faced before. Making a woman believe he's more than just a great bedmate-making her believe he's in it for good. In the end it will all come down to two days in a hotel and a bet. Can they both win?

- My Review -

When Liv Davis' best friend, Maggie met Kyle Chase sparks flew. And as Liv finds out the Chase boys are hard to resist, having dated Matt Chase a few months ago. But those sparks didn't last, and as she finds out the sparks with her current boyfriend don't either. Liv is to the point of giving up on dating and her dream of grow old with a man. Even though Matt didn't work out, Live might just need to give the last of the Chase boys a chance. The third book Lauren Dane's Chase Brothers series, Chased is the story of the youngest of the bunch, Marc and how he might finally get what he wants, a women to love.

As the mayor's right hand, Liv has her plate full. She might have a tough girl exterior but she has a heart that may have been broken one to many times. All she wants is to find a love that will last a lifetime and maybe have a few kids. With opening his new gym, Marc is on his own path towards success and wants to share that with someone. But as the youngest of the Chase boys, Marc is sometimes over looked, and he is determined to not let Liv do that to him. As one of his newest clients, Liv might just be the person Marc wants to settle down with. But when feelings form and sparks fly high, Liv puts up a defensive front blocking Marc out. Differences in age becomes Liv's main argument for not wanting a relationship with Marc. And in the end he must make her see that age doesn't matter; that he's ready to be the man she wants for her future.

What I enjoyed the most about Chased was the fact that I already knew Liv and Matt as secondary characters but got to dive into their lives more through this book. As I've said before Lauren Dane does a great job with her Chase Brothers series, and within Chased we see the the family expand. But Dane  also leaves a girl wanting her own country hunk like one of these boys to cuddle with. Chased is preceded by Giving Chase (Kyle and Maggie) and Taking Chase (Shane and Cassie), and is followed by Making Chase, the final book of the Chased Brothers series which tells Matt's tale. A spin off series called Petal, Georgia continues to follow the characters from the Chase series, and includes Once and Again and Lost in You.
