Chasing Love by Melissa West
4.0

Chasing Love is another swoony romance by Melissa West and book two of The Littleton Brothers series. If you were curious about Charlie, this is the book you will want to read. You will get a quick read with a great story about friendship, family, and love.

Charlie is a solid character but I have to be honest, he didn’t stand out for me in the previous book. This book changes that for sure and I loved getting to know him better. Charlie’s friendship with Lucas is tied not only to the backstory between him and Lila but also one of the things that brings them together when Lucas is called back to duty.

The backstory is great with these two. It is clear they have had feelings for each other for a long time and Charlie does his best to stay away but that doesn’t really work out for him. I get where he was coming from in regard to having a discussion with Lucas but Lila is an adult and if she was all for taking their relationship to a different place that should have been enough.

I liked Lila – it’s clear something happened to her when she had moved away but we don’t find out what it was until a bit later in the story. Based on this, it is clear she is strong and a fighter.

If you know me, you know Melissa West is on my auto-buy list as she writes wonderful stories. Her characters are well developed and the stories almost always have more to them than just what you read in the overview. Chasing Love is a quick read and another great, swoony romance by West. If you are looking for something that will keep you turning the pages to see what happens, check this one out.

Thank you to the publisher for the review copy!
