Publisher's summary

Some small towns grow really good-looking men! This is the case with the four Chase brothers.

The homegrown hotties are on the wish list of every single woman in town and Maggie Wright is no exception. Maggie has finally had it with the men she's been dating but a spilled plate of chili cheese fries drops Shane Chase right into her lap. The sheriff is hot stuff but was burned by a former fiancée and is quite happy to play the field.

After Shane's skittishness sends him out the door, Maggie realizes that Kyle Chase has had his eye on her from the start. Now that Shane has messed up, Kyle has no intention of letting anything stop him from wooing her right into his bed. Now, despite Maggie's happiness and growing love for Kyle, a dark shadow threatens everything - she's got a stalker and he's not happy at all. In the end, Maggie will need her wits, strength, and the love of her man to get her out alive.

Good Narrator!

The audio version is pretty good. It seems like woman do a better job of doing the male voices than the male narrators do for the female voices. None are perfect but male narrators tend to make woman sound either like old woman or give them higher voices than needed, making them sound funny.

Very Enjoyable

Listen, Giving Chase: Chase Brothers, Book 1 was adorable...very enjoyable. This is a fun, sweet, novel. Entertaining.
This is what we want when we buy a book like this. Are there lessons to learn...probably not...morals to the story...no...but if you want to be entertained...this is going to fit the bill.
Credit ready...yes!

Passes the time while using the treadmill

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

It made the time spent on the treadmill less tiresome.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

It is a predictable love story, It did have a story, unlike some love stories. It is a damsel in distress story. The characters are likable.

What three words best describe Aletha George’s voice?

She is okay.

Did Giving Chase inspire you to do anything?

No, but I enjoyed it.

Give it up for the Chase Brothers!

Would you listen to Giving Chase again? Why?

Yes, think I would. Who wouldn't want Kyle Chase in their life? Even if through a book! WOW

What other book might you compare Giving Chase to and why?

I've listened to a lot of Romance Novels and try not to compare. The Chase Brothers are unique so there's no comparison.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Maggie and Kyle first met.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not really. I stopped and started. But, it was one I finished with a smile on my face. Have to love a happy ending. Of course life is not always like that but I do like my romance novels to end happily. That's why it's a book. The ending can be as the writer chooses not like real life.

Any additional comments?

Audible is a great way to listen to a book. The narrator is especially what make the book come to life. OK, Audible you need to offer your special credits. Would like to get some deals on here.

Pleasant book.

I did like the family values depicted in the book.

What other book might you compare Giving Chase to and why?

I don't know.

Definitely Maggie.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

I don't think a film should be made of this book.

It was a pleasant book. Not worth a buy ... but a credit if you want something mindless.

Best of the series

I've read & listened to most of LD's stuff, this is a nice series and the first book is the best. I personally think she would have been better off to write 1 or 2 longer books with more secondary characters and story line.
In this book we meet all the primary characters for the series. Maggie is a high school history teacher with self esteem issues. She starts dating one brother who is an ass to her, but it's Kyle who wins her heart through his caring & gentle nature.
This series is set in the south and I have a weakness for romances set in the south. The narrator does a great job in this book and the next with the male voices. Not so much in books 3 & 4.
Don't waste a credit. Buy the kindle edition with whisper sync & then u get the audio book super cheap. I recommend u do that with the entire series. Overall an entertaining listen.

Disappointing narration....

While this story isn't bad, the narration is poor - very little voice differentiation and intonation. I won't be considering the rest of the series until the narrator changes.
