This is the first book from this author and what a book to read.
This is a very emotional story.
The plot and storyline are written very well that it kept me on my toes and kept turning the pages.
I will be reading more especially with the way the ending came about
This is my first read from these authors and I enjoyed it very much. It kept me on my toes wondering what is going to happen next. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
4 and a half stars.
This was a new to me author and would be interested in reading more from her.
This book has a lot of everything, dark/light, happy/broken, and will send you on a rollercoaster of emotions. You will often find yourself screaming at the book and characters, especially when the bodies start piling up.
This was new author for me and really enjoyed this story. It was full of suspense and kept me reading till the early hours of the morning. I couldn’t put my kindle down with needing to know what happens next….Great book.
Oh boy, I can tell you that this book is one powerhouse of emotions. My heart just about breaks with the overwhelming sadness and grief from one situation then with hope when the two lead characters, Detective Adam Emerson and Claire McBride, are together. The story really is a tangled mess of feelings.
There is some good humour between the leading characters especially; their fun banter helps to balance the darker elements in the story. As well there are some humorous notions like when Adam thinks this about his dog- “Angus is most definitely going to start up the car and drive to a place that will give him free food by the time we get out of here.”
The chemistry between Adam and Claire is strong as well. They are a perfect fit and it does take quite a while for them to wake up to themselves, yes I did want to give them a wee shake even though they’d been through trauma. However when they finally do get together holy moly are they smoking hot!
There is quite a lot of action and a heap of violence in this story because of the criminal element but I did find it a little bit hard to believe he hadn’t been prosecuted when there was video evidence on a few phones, even given crooked policemen. When the action heats up though it truly is excitement plus. There were a couple of interesting twists at the end too, which kept things lively.
Chasing Sunshine was a good read. I have read one of the author that make up A.L. Shea before so I didn’t really read the blurb before deciding to read it. I was expecting romance and maybe some angst but this was so much different than what I expect and I loved it. It’s full of suspense and a some romance. I loved the story lined. I was hooked and even lost a little sleep because I wanted to keep reading. Adam is a homicide detective. Claire is Adam’s friend’s sister. Both Adam and Claire have had a rush on each other for awhile but neither know the other has a crush back. Liam is a bad guy. He’s a dangerous criminal. He’s crimes are wrapped up and around both Adam and Claire’s lives. I don’t want to give anything away so I won’t say much but I loved how the storyline progressed and it’s a good read.
4 1/2 Stars!

I felt so bad for Claire and Adam I was like will it ever stop? How much more can these two go through and survive? Time after time my heart was so heavy with the grief that I imagined Claire and Adam feeling. The pain and the hurt just kept coming and coming, over and over again with no end in sight. Once I picked up Chasing Sunshine I was not able to put it down until I had read the last page I had to know how it was all going to come out in the end. I can’t wait to read more in this amazing new world of Love in the Crossfire.
