Book Review - Chasing Rhodes by Anne Jolin

 
 
 Author: Anne Jolin
Series: Book 1 in the Rock Fall Series
Genre: Romance / Erotica
 
 
Synopsis:
Hannah Rhodes has just gotten out of a long term relationship, and she isn’t looking for a new man in her life. But after a night out with the girls and one too many tequila shots, her plans to stay man free are blown all to hell. She finds herself in bed with the smoldering stranger from a party six months back and immediately knows she’s in trouble, big trouble. And the last thing Hannah needs is more trouble.

Her last relationship took her out like an emotional freight train, and she’s trying to piece back the stability her life once had.

Greyson Holt’s biggest fear in life is to end up like his father, like the man who left him as a child, and broke his mother’s heart. He vowed to never be responsible for that kind of carnage. Men could be cruel and that kind of brutality was in his blood. He never allows himself to get too close to anyone, until he meets Hannah. 

Something about her makes him want to try, but a man can’t change overnight. 

Will Holt be able to catch Rhodes every time he lets her go? Or will their chase end in heartbreak?

My Review

I worked my way a bit backwards started with book 2 in the series. After reading Chasing Rhodes, so many things make sense in Choosing Henley. 

Let me just start with saying I loved this book. took me less than a week to read. Chasing Rhodes is back with laughter, anger, love and OMG moments.

"My last though before sleep is that this man likely has the power to break me, and I'm not sure I care. Not one bit"

"but this kind of feels like that can't eat, cant sleep, reach for the stars, world series kind of kiss"

The two main Character is Hannah Rhodes and Greyson Holt aka Hunnam. One night change encounter and months later a short of a one night stand ends up in long lasting love. True love is never easy and there will be obstacles. Their love will be tested in all the ways possible. And trust me it will be tested. There was a moment where I just wanted to kick Greyson in the balls and shout  at him you know why.

I loved Hannah with her movie quotes and reference, I certainly related to her and I think most woman would. The struggle that face a girl. The fact that you would fight for the love of your life but also know when is enough and step away. Being a woman is never easy

"I've been deflecting any and all negativity with my happiness shield. Pew. Pew. Pew"

Greyson has his own struggles, he has to let Hannah in his heart and that scares the crap out of him. He has this bad buy vibe with the sweetest, kindest heart.

"being with you is like coming home, Hannah. When I look at you I fell peace"

the group of friends become more united  and a love that I won't think that will be broken is being form
end.
 The sex scenes are hot and you will find yourself fanning your face with your hand.
 
Rock fall series I would recommend to anyone who would like a great romance story. This series is fast becoming one of my Favourite Series.
 
I give Chasing Rhodes


 
About the Author
I’m twenty four years old. I was born and raised in Ladner, a small farm town just outside of Vancouver, Canada. I grew up riding horses, shooting guns and riding in trucks. I’ve been married to my handsome redneck husband for a year and we are parents to our chocolate fur baby, Bear. No kiddo’s yet! I am completely and utterly obsessed with country music, you will constantly find me stalking iTunes. If you don’t find me on iTunes, you’ll find me on Netflix because I am a self proclaimed movie junkie. Yes, that means that I quote them constantly in daily conversation and my characters do too! You couldn’t keep me away from a good action movie if you tried. I’m also a planning nut. I love to plan parties, events, trips – you name it! I don’t know if that’s considered a real hobby, but it is for me.

We were fortunate enough to travel a lot as a family growing up, and I think that helped spark my love of reading. I’m half Viking, my mom is Danish, and her entire side of the family still lives in Denmark. We’d visit them almost once a year, every year and it’s a nine hour flight. That’s a lot of uninterrupted time to read (or in my parent’s case, entertain four children – Yikes!). Somewhere along the way my love of reading, became a love of writing. I wrote short stories when I was younger, and although I majored in Business Management at college, I took as many English electives I could get my hands on.

During the day I work at my family construction company wearing a variety of different hats and at night, I write! I had never thought about writing books before, but after a few suggestions that I should try, I decided to give it a go. I loved it instantly! Having always been a creative person, it felt amazing to harness all that energy and use it to tell a story. Now, quite frankly it’s all I can think about, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m grateful to have developed my love of reading into a passion for writing. You’ll be seeing many more books from me in the future!
