Secure Again: A Chase Group Story by R.L. Dunn is another winner. It is a thrilling and enticing read that is non stop action from the start to finish. There are so many players it is a wonder that R.L. was able to keep up with them all as it was a little daunting myself but she did a masterful job. of weaving it all together to come out with a story that will have your heart pounding and your emotions on high alert. I really enjoy the Chase Group stories and love their characters. This one was a bit of a hard pill to swallow at the thought of what the evil men and women in this story were doing and I could not wait for their just deserts to be served with a side of whipped cream. It is choc-a-block full of action and danger, secrets and lies, heartache and love.
Dr. Elizabeth Reed is one strong and sassy, independent and beautiful woman but she is heartbroken. She has long suspected that things have not been right with the injuries she sees on some of her patients. When she asks questions she doesn’t realise she is now putting herself in life threatening danger. However, when doing everything she can to save a life, she comes face to face with the one person who shattered her heart.
Martin Bailey is the CEO of Chase Security International, but all that is left behind when he has a family emergency. Whilst waiting for answers he finds himself face to face with the one person who tore his heart out and stomped on it. What he finds when he gets to the hospital will require the whole of Chase Security and then some to bring the monsters to justice.
The book is extremely fast paced and will have you biting nails and on the edge of your seat. Not one to be missed.

5 out of 5 stars
I loved reading the book Secure Again (Chase Security Series Book 2) by R.L. Dunn. It is a story that starts with a bang and doesn’t let you go until the final page. There is action, danger, mystery, and romance. I loved the characters of Dr. Elizabeth Reed and Martin Bailey. Elizabeth is a doctor who takes her oath to help patients very seriously. She is dedicated to her career and good at what she does. She also has a past that is painful to remember. When Austin Bailey, Martin’s brother ends up in the hospital and they meet again old memories resurface. Martin is a man who is intelligent, strong and the CEO of Chase Security. He can’t believe his eyes when he sees Elizabeth. Will anything happen between Elizabeth and Martin? Is their love for one another still there? There is a conspiracy of crimes that are being committed. Will Martin be able to keep Elizabeth safe? Will they get a HEA? Read this book to find out. This story had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. It has twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. I grew to care about what happens to Elizabeth and Martin with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. The author does an amazing job of making both the storyline and the characters come alive on the pages. I enjoyed reading about all of the supporting characters that helped Elizabeth and Martin. There are also those with an evil agenda that must be stopped. Don’t miss out on an amazing tale that is exciting and entertaining to read. I highly recommend reading it.
I liked the idea of this story from reading the synopsis. As I got into the story I found I just couldn’t stay focused. The writing seems choppy and Way way too many characters the author wants us to know about. Plus there are a lot of storylines running through here. I know they all circle around to meet in the end. Speaking of that…this really pricked my interest again about three quarters of the way through. Quick action! This has just about everything that could happen…does happen in here.
I liked the story line of Beth and Martin and his brother. There does seem to be some heat between Beth and Martin that could be felt. I also think I would be terrified if I needed to be treated in her hospital. Scary amount of stuff happening there.
Overall it’s an okay read.
Wow…there is a lot going on in this book and it is an amazing ride. While this book may be intimidating due to the amount of pages, I found myself flipping through them so fast and I arrived at the end of the story before I knew it. I was so engrossed in the story that I completely tuned out the world around me.
Martin, the CEO of Chase Security, is called home when his brother ends up in the hospital. Elizabeth is the doctor treating Martin’s brother. The two share a heartbroken past that they must face when they see each other again. This is not your typical second-chance romance, though. First, R.L. Dunn makes them work hard to move beyond the past and even have a chance at a future. Oh…and there’s the web of prisoner abuse and other crimes that they must unravel along the way.
This book was fast paced and action packed. I read it from cover to cover in one evening because I couldn’t put it down (I had to know how it was going to end!). There were twists and turns along the way which kept me fully invested until the end. I enjoyed the first book…but I loved this book! This series is amazing and I can’t wait to see what R.L. Dunn has in store next!
I love this second installment from the Chase Security series. I loved the non stop action that kept me on the edge of my seat. R.L Dunn is quite the storyteller and was able to tell so many sides of a story and I never got lost once. Dr. Elizabeth Reed is one of those strong female characters that you can’t help but love and Martin Bailey who will stop at nothing to bring to justice the person who has hurt the woman who has stomped on his heart and maybe win her?!?
I love this book and this author! I cannot wait for more!
Secure Again is the second book in R.L. Dunn’s Chase Security Series. Just like the first book in this series you are hooked from the first page and the authors words keep you hypnotized until the last page, even then you want to just jump to the next book to keep reading. This book is filled with action, romance, and mystery. You follow the characters Dr. Elizabeth Reed who is a trauma surgeon and Martin Bailey who is a former Navy SEAL but now the CEO of Chase Security International. These two have a past but is the love they once had still there? Will she get to the bottom of the issues at the prison? The author did an amazing job writing the storyline and book altogether. I cant wait to read Book 3 in this series.
Secure Again (Chase Security Series #2) by R.L. Dunn
4 of 5 Stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this second book in R.L. Dunn’s ‘Chase Security Series’, this was former Navy SEAL and CEO of Chase Security International Martin Bailey and Dr. Elizabeth Reed’s Story. High school sweethearts Martin and Elizabeth meet again when Martin (Marty) has to return home when his brother, Austin who is a Sergeant with the Silverton PD is shot in the line of duty. Elizabeth is the trauma surgeon in Silverton who treats Martin. Elizabeth notices a pattern of suspicious injuries that our occurring to prisoners at the local jail and wants to uncover what is happening. When she suspects that Austin’s injuries are also linked to the suspected prisoner abuse her and Marty work together to investigate. Whilst investigating Elizabeth and Marty find themselves in a complicated web of drugs, human trafficking, illicit porn, and prisoner abuse. As their feelings for each other are rekindled the couple find themselves in danger and they work alongside the members of Chase Security to solve the mystery before any more lives are lost.
Another exciting and action packed story by Dunn, which can be read as a standalone story or as part of the series. It’s not just a second chance at love romance but it is also a crime mystery story with plenty of suspense and drama. The storyline had me hooked from start to finish and the plot twists kept me guessing whilst the narrative made the book flow nicely. I loved the main characters, Martin and Elizabeth who were both very relatable and I enjoyed how their romance was rekindled and developed throughout the story. The book is recommended for over 18’s due to its adult content. This novel also dealt with some dark issues from drug abuse to human trafficking but it also has some lighter moments and the characters really bought the whole story together. I look forward to the next book in the series.
Another nail biter from Dunn! I really appreciate how she weaves suspense with romance while being respectful of both genres. Her books are written in such a way as they can be read and enjoyed as standalone. However I enjoy seeing the depth of the Chase agency and finding how each character introduced works within the ranks. Each story delves into a new characters and new situation. This book has a surprising small town feel with all sorts of unexpected drama and risk. I loved Elizabeth and felt an immediate pull to her. Loved this book and look forward to reading the next in the series.
Secure Again (Chase Security series Book 2)
By R.L. Dunn
Secure Again is book 2 in the Chase Security Series by R.L. Dunn. I don’t know if it is just me but I felt that there was a huge amount going on and I was lost for a good time with this book, took me a good while to get through this book. On saying that though once I was able to get into the storyline I found the book flowed nicely and I do recommend that it is read. I do like books that the author allows a female character to be strong and stay true to herself. I would highly suggest starting with book one in the series. I do think that this is going to be a good series.
When you have a blast from your past, will you be able to resist or crave what you have been missing all this time.
Elizabeth is a doctor who has a troubled past, although she takes her oath very seriously but when a man from her past comes crashing in will her heart be able to survive the encounter.
Martin is the CEO of Chase Security, when his brother is admitted into hospital, Elizabeth is the last person he thinks he will see, but will there past be able to be overcomed and hopefully create a fresh future or will the past catch up with them and will Martin have to save her from the threat that is attaching them.
This story is full of action, thrills and twists. Martin’s character in the first book was so strong and controlled, in this book you feel the vulnerability in him and it is great to see him in turmoil over this independant and sassy woman. This story was well written and had me on the edge of my seat with every turn of the page. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series and see which one of the characters is next to get his story.
Secure Again by R.L. Dunn is the second book in the Chase Security Series. This is a continuation of the first book, so I highly recommend reading book one in the series first. This story focuses on Dr. Elizabeth Reed, who notices a mysterious medical issue at the jail and Martin Bailey, CEO of Chase Security International, who has his own investigations ongoing. This is a good story that is full of suspense, mystery, and romance. I was drawn into the story and wanted to keep reading to find out what was going on for Dr. Reed and Martin’s cases. I liked there were separate stories, but they intertwined. I also enjoyed the characters. I look forward to reading more in this series soon.

Book 2
By R. L. Dunn
Full length novel with more than a hot romance. Be aware you can’t put this book down.

He has caused enough problems for her to fix. So she needs to put a stop to it. That’s when everything she stands for is jeopardized. The doctors think she should let the officer who was shot die. She can’t though! Read on to see what happens next.
R. L. Dunn is the author of this Suspenseful story. This fast paced, easy to follow, page turner. Has it all. The emotional Rollercoaster in itself, will keep you wanting more. I love her characters, and can’t help but fall in love with them. Elizabeth is such a strong heroine, and takes care of herself, and others, as she fights for her patients. The men in this story are amazing in their security plans. Which as we know, suspect the unexpected. Well Done R.L. Dunn!
This is a gripping and thrilling adventure from start to finish. This is the 2nd book in the Chase Security series.
Dr Elizabeth Reed is dedicated to her work and her patients. When she starts to see people arriving at the hospital from a prison with injuries the same she starts to wonder what is going on there.

All these questions keep you guessing all through the book and keeps you gripped all the way through. I loved it and can’t wait to read the next one.
Secure Again is the 2nd book in the fantastic Chase Security series by R.L. Dunn. Dunn was new to me when I started reading this series but I’m sure I will continue to read their work as this series has been excellent so far. Each of the books in this series can be read as a standalone but I would advise starting from the first book and reading them all in order. This is more relevant when reading the third book (which I’ve just started) as there is some mention of what had gone on before in book 2, I also advise this purely as this is a fantastic series and I think that others would have a great deal of enjoyment from reading all of the books.
At just under 500 pages this is quite a long book but it is fast paced and very action packed and will have you totally engrossed and not want to put this book down. There is so much danger, mystery and intrigue that totally grabs you from the get do and just doesn’t let you go.
I absolutely adored the 2 main characters in this book, Martin and Elizabeth, and was totally invested in their story. This is a second chance romance for them and they totally deserve a HEA but the author does not let this come easily for them. They are both really put through the mill on the way.
I only have 1 thing about this book that is a very slight negative. There is a very large cast of characters and I found myself at times struggling to remember who were the ‘good guys’ and who were the ‘bad guys’. It’s a very minor issue and certainly did not reduce my enjoyment of this book.
5 Star

Secure Again is the second book in R.L. Dunn’s Chase Security Series. After finishing the opening to the series, I knew that I will need to get on her notification email list so that I would not miss out on the other books in the series AND I tell you, based on the sixteen founding members, we will have sooo much to look forward to! You can read every book as a standalone but I promise you, you will want to read all of the books in the series as you get to know the guys better and better and you start making connections and the pleasure you get … Just open the book and look at the list of the people listed at the beginning of each story … oh my … firstly, thank you for that list and secondly, seeing this list I can just dream about the hours we will be sending in this Chase Security universe!

Kudos to the writer for putting together such a fast paced story that is so interwoven and intricate and heart breaking and … it has everything that one can wish for when picking up a book! I cannot wait to head to San Diego with Julian next!
Secure Again: A Chase Group Story was a great 5 star read.
Once I started I couldn’t put it down. There is so much going on with all the characters.
Elizabeth is a surgeon and Martin is the CEO of Chase Security.
Elizabeth is a very caring person and becomes concerned when she starts seeing patients from the local jail coming in with injuries. When Martin gets called home after his brother has been shot, he finds out that Elizabeth is the one keeping his brother alive. These two have a history that didn’t end well for them.
As the investigation continues on both the shooting and the jail injuries things intensify. Can Chase Security get the answers and solve the mystery? Will Elizabeth and Martin reconnect and have a second chance at a HEA?

4 Stars
Secure Again is the second book in the Chase Security series by R.L Dunn. It is a second chance romance- with suspense, intrigue, mystery, danger, hidden agendas, chemistry, and high stakes.
Dr. Elizabeth Reed is a surgeon who has noticed a number of disturbing injuries stemming from the local prison. She is determined to find out what is going on.
Martin Bailey is the CEO of Chase Security International- is drawn into the mystery through his brother (a police officer) and the investigation he was conducting. But Martin and Elizabeth also have a past relationship- and soon old feelings are bubble to the surface, adding to the already charged situation. With a complicated web to untangle, there is no time to spare if they are to figure it all out before anyone else dies.
There was a lot going on and a lot of characters to keep track of, too. Making for an intense read.
Bring on Book #3!
Thank you, R.L Dunn!
Ohhhh my, I just totally adored this book. I was completely sucked into it and couldn’t put it down until I had soon consumed it in one full sitting. Literally, I never even got up to cook supper this book consumed me that much it lead to a fantastic pizza night in our household!
Elizabeth Reed is everything you want to see in a female lead. A strong and fierce force to be reckoned with when it comes to medical integrity, she truly made this book so delicious to read. I Farmer (Martin) Bailey is the type of man that makes you weak in the knees; delicious, strong, protective, and down-right a hot Alpha lead. Elizabeth finds herself questioning the injuries that are coming in with the inmates from the local jail. As a doctor something doesn’t seem right and she is determined to get the the bottom of it. Just as that is heating up she is also faced with the fact that she is keeping the brother of the man she loves alive. These two do not have a pretty past but can they work together and find a beautiful future together? I can’t wait to see what the next book in the Chase Group stories will bring us.
