I’m in hiding. My face is all over social media with a trending hashtag #. All because I’ve piqued the interest of Mr. Manhattan. But it’ll take a lot more than deep pockets, penthouses overlooking Central Park, and six-pack abs to make me fall. I’m not an airhead who nibbles on lettuce cups all day. I’m a fiery hot-blooded Latina and no one messes with me.Rafe…I made the cover of FORBES … me.
Rafe…
I made the cover of FORBES Magazine.
Twice.
I’m loaded.
Bilingual.
But I’m hiding a dark secret. A pain that never goes away. The only people who ever truly loved me are dead and gone. Sure, I might have millions but it can’t buy me love.
Then fate brings me Selina. She’s a fiery, hot-blooded Latina. With curves.
Bilingual.
I thought we were speaking the same language, but she cut and run. She turned me down. Avoids my calls. Ignores my texts.
It’s almost comedic that me–the most eligible billionaire in Manhattan can’t lock this girl down. Who knew a down on her luck dog walker could be my happily ever after? But first I need to find where she’s hiding.
NOTE: This is a standalone full-length, standalone novel.more
Rafe and Selena are two very different specimens. Because of this, it makes them that much more daring and absolutely perfect for one another. Their journey is intense and delicious. Along with being hooked from beginning to end, this book is brilliant!

4 1/2 Stars
Slightly Dark and very steamy! Rafe’s obsession with Selina was dramatic and intense. At first I thought I wouldn’t get over him with other women while pursuing Selina. I don’t know how the author did it, but I started to empathize with Rafe even though his cheating was distasteful to me. The letters to his mother showed his loving and sensitive side
I loved Selina’s fighting spirit
The ending was a bit abrupt with many questions still unanswered. No cliffy and a nice HEA. Looking forward to the next in this series.

Loved the book it was great the story was well written and the characters were interesting you. Rafael is arrogant, dominant, very good-looking playboy. Selina lives in Queens she could not afford to live in Manhattan. Selina and Raf have some chemistry do they act as if they do not or is it only the start.
Thank you for allowing me to review this book it was great.

At first I did not like Rafael he was a slime ball jerk. Selena is a sweetheart. With time these two had such an amazing connection and love story. So much passion & fire. I loved this one!

Rafe and Selina are just fabulous! The tension, the attraction, their chemistry is behond charts and keeps evolving and intensifying!
This book became one of my favorites. I highly recommend it!
OMG! You have got to read this book. Well worth reading!
I was a bit disappointed by this story. There is too much inconsistency with it. I like the character of rafe he is torture just enough to be interesting, and the other end Selena is too impulsive for her own good and just put down the all story

Tender, hot and sometimes a little brutal
4.5
I thought it was a good romance, with a touch of light BDSM on a mafia background.
The main story is about Rafael, a CEO who works in finance and who has spent his studies surrounded by sons of Mafioso with whom he has kept links, and Sélina, a dog sitter, who because of her past with a rich man, do not be fooled by power and money. So when she accidentally bumps into Rafael, she doesn’t fool around with him, throwing in his face his playboy reputation of playing with women. But Rafael claims to be a dom and he is taken aback and attracted by the quick and cheeky spirit of Selina. However, although physically attracted and chased by Rafael, Selina is strong and pushes him away, repelling the instincts of this man and his dark world of the New York Mafia.
To this romance part, is added the roommate of Selina, whose behavior with mafia leaders is dangerous and which Selina warns, not wanting to put herself in danger.
So it’s both romantic, torrid, with a hint of action, for a strong woman with unpredictable reactions and who never surrenders.

Once you start reading this book, you will not put it down. It is a very well written, very interesting and great book. The characters are real, powerful and feisty. Kinda like a joke starter, a mobster, a business man and a dog walker walk into a bar lol. But the story is powerful, full of drama, secrets and a woman who is caught in the middle. Sometimes the best way. It’s a HAF book that you can’t wait to find out more. There is so much emotions you feel while reading, you can’t help but love the book and I recommend it highly as a super great read. When I say HAF, I mean HAF with a great story to keep your nose in until done.
What another super read from Jax I just loved Rafe and Selina’s story these two are fantastic characters and I just loved getting to know them. They are both somewhat broken but together they kinds fix each other they were just perfect together. This was a super well-written book and I would recommend it to all I just loved it
Wow! This book was just wow! I loved Selina’s sassiness and loved how it made Rafe just want her more. It was definitely one of those stories you could see happening IRL!
Dom Diaries: The Chase by Jax Hart. When I see a new book from Jax Hart – it’s a one click for me. I love the writing style (the raw, gritty, and dirty). This book is so well written and filled with dark drama, sexy scenes, very vividly detailed descriptions, and amazingly strong characters. It is full of twists and surprises that kept me entertained.

This is an enjoyable read. Selena and Rafe are not exactly compatible but their chemistry more than makes up for anything else. Selena is a strong woman that will never let a man have total control over her. Rafe is a man that is a strong and dominate and for some reason unbeknownst to him is captivated by Selena. This is a great story on how these two characters make an attempt at a relationship and the compromising that is needed to make it the next step. But is it all worth it? Can these characters not alter their themselves yet not lose the other in the process? I will definitely be reading this book again.

Loved the story of Rafael and Selina from the first pages! Where to start? I loved his humor and seduction and her sassy back talking mouth hate relationship! Had me smiling more than once! Loved his whole take command alpha dom attitude, very sexy and attractive. Also loved his sweet side! This story has a lot of everything in it to keep your attention focused on wanting to read more. Heartbreak, lots of action, seduction and a great ending! Also loved Roques character and cannot wait to read his story next! This is a must read and will reread again.

I Loved this book.
The twisted tale of Selina and Raphael.
They first met when she dumped her latte down his $20,000
suit.
Then “The Chase” is on and try as Raph might she rejects him at every turn, even though she secretly desires him.
Read this book now now to find out what finally makes her cave and submit to her desires.
Brilliant work as always Jax!
This is a great read. I enjoyed the strong characters, both male and female, the dark storyline, the chemistry between Raphael and Selina and the intense hot sex scenes. I appreciated Rafe’s proctectiveness and his possessiveness too.
