I received a complimentary copy of this book and I am voluntarily reviewing it.
This was a charming story. I was able to read it in one sitting. The characters were enjoyable and the plot was good. In Bailey, MT there is a feud between the Baileys and the Smythes. Apparently the Bailey men are cursed with losing their spouse through abandonment or death. The Smythe women are considered nothing but money-grubbing women. Jasper Bailey comes back home for his brother’s wedding to Treya Smythe’s cousin. He is coming home after being gone for 6 years and she wants out of the small town for life in the big city.
The book is written in a dual POV format. That really helps me to understand the characters better. Seeing their thoughts during a scene, can really shed light into their actions and speech so much better.
This is a nice sweet, clean romance. I highly recommend to anyone.
They were the greatest mistake that could ever be made. So how come their feelings are a perfect fit for love? Chasing the Renegade is a comedy of errors with a dramatic twist. Feuding families, instant attraction, mistaken identities and hard to resist romance. The Smythe and Bailey clans are in for a rude awakening when it comes to matters of the heart. Can the girl with big city dreams give her heart to a cowboy? With the odds stacked against them, can Jasper and Treya’s romance survive the drama that’s headed in their direction?
A great continuation of series and characters.
A well written perfectly paced story pulling you in from the start. A feud in a small town where everyone knows all about your life but have your back if needed. This was about Jasper returning to his hometown after being away for so long and how he falls for Treya. A standalone read but you don’t need to read the first book to follow along here in book two.
All I could think of when I finished reading Chasing the Renegade was that these two never had a chance not ‘connecting’! From the very start, Jasper Bailey slips back into town the day of his brother’s wedding and runs into Treya Smythe. The attraction is immediate, on both sides, however one IS a Bailey and one IS a Smythe…and one isn’t quite upfront about whom they really are and the other isn’t truthful about what they truly want. Of course, chaos ensues but underneath it all is a wonderfully sweet story. Quick read for me, but enjoyable, and I think Jasper was adorable!
Another great book in the Renegades of Clearwater County Series! Jasper heads back home to Bailey, Montana, just in time for his brother’s wedding to a Smythe. A woman from the family they have been feuding with for over a century. Little does he know that he will meet Treya, the woman of his dreams, at that wedding. But can another Bailey marry a Smythe and survive?? Don’t miss this sweet love story by Bonnie Paulson!
Chasing the Renegade is a sweet, clean romance. Treya, who just wants to leave town, and Jasper, who wants to come home, are both hiding things. Treya does not know Jasper is a Bailey.

With well drawn characters and an interesting plot, you will have to read to see if when secrets are revealed, will these two be able to help forget the feud.
