Resumen del Editor

An emotional story of healing, redemption, and love from USA Today best-selling author Kacey Shea.

This summer I'm leaving my hometown for a fresh start. It's a necessary choice in my pursuit of a full and sober life. Besides, escaping to the Outer Banks isn't a hardship. This seaside town holds everything I need and more.

That is, until I run into Chase Matthews.

He's an arrogant, cocky, self-absorbed jerk who has already come between me and my best friend once. The smart thing to do is keep him at a distance, even if he seems lost and alone.

Instead, I'm compelled to help him.

Chase is broken and beautiful in ways I fully understand. It's been months since I've indulged in a drink, but I've found a new obsession.

He's everything I want and the last thing I need.

Each day draws us closer, but I can't allow myself to get caught up in Chase. We were only meant to have the summer. A temporary fling. Yet my heart has other plans. I don't know how I'll ever walk away. Even if he costs me everything.

Enjoy Alicia and Chase's epic love story, Caught in the Chase, or start with Callie's book, Caught in the Flames.

Alicia and Chase gave me goosebumps.

Alicia and Chase gave me goosebumps. Shea touches the soul. Caught in the Chase throws away the rose colored glasses and gives a glimpse into the darkness of a tarnished heart. With a portrayal that is as haunting as a memory and a journey as painful as it is poignant, Peachwood and Hamilton draw the heart in like a magnet.

Wonderfully written..love Alisha and Chase

This is one rollercoaster ride of emotions. Ups, downs with twists and turns! I really got to delve deep into these characters lives, thoughts and emotions. It makes me become invested in them. Alisha really has had quite the life. I feel sorry for her but also admire her courage to go after what she wants. Chase…man! I was angry with him but eventually got over it and saw what he was trying to do with his life. Do these two belong together? I agree with Alisha’s thoughts but also love their passion when together.

This story also covers addiction. This one is on drinking but a lot of the thoughts they have would apply to other addictions. It really gives the reader something to think about if there is anything they are addicted to(flossing, reading, eating or really just anything). I enjoy the characters thoughts on—just one sip won’t hurt or one sip leads to more. Both are right.

Anyway this story is good, hits all the right spots and easily kept my interest. I look forward to the next to see how things turn out for all the characters not just Alisha and Chase.

I did listen to this on audio. Savannah Peachwood and Teddy Hamilton did amazing. Each brought the perfect inflictions to their characters voices.

Exceptional Story & Listen🎧Riveting & Heartfelt!

Kacey Shea never ceases to amaze me with her brilliant mind and the amazing stories she creates, I enjoy her writing style and how realistic and relatable her characters and storylines are, which makes it easy to connect with them and to get fully immersed and invested in the story. There is great world building and character development and the complexity of these characters is vast and amazing. This third book of the “Caught” series is Alicia and Chase Matthews’ story and what a story it is, while each book in this series is a standalone I highly recommend starting enjoying them in order written, first, they are all amazing, second, these characters appeared in earlier books and it is great to know a bit of their backstory and what brought them to where they are in this book. No worries you if you decide to read this on its own you will not feel lost, or that something is missing, the story flows naturally and everything you need to know is detailed in their story. That said, Chase Matthews, a cocky, arrogant player, and he was a bit of a dick in the first book, ok, more than a bit. His cockiness catches up to him in this book and he makes the biggest mistake of his life and it may cost him every he held dear to his heart and life as he knew it and lived it. It was even worse for his friend and coworker who lost even more. His family has had enough of him, especially his father, though he did one more thing for him before he was exiled out of town and out of his job. Alicia has made bad choices in her life, it almost cost her her best friends, who have since forgiven her. She has come a long way since but still knows sobriety and recovery is a work in progress. She is waiting to hear from the graduate programs she applied to, she does not want a career in the family business but she’d rather help people. Against her father’s wishes, she takes an internship at a community center in the Outer Banks to work with youth. Used to upscale and pristine living conditions, she is in for a bit of an adjustment, but she is a sport about it because the job will look good on her resume. Plus, she it gives her to opportunity to live a clean, sober life while being outside of her comfort zone. What she was not expecting to find there was Chase Matthews, not just visiting the area but volunteering at the community center. Chase is the last person she wants to see, but she can not just blow him off, though she would love to see him go. He is there for a reason and it takes him time to get past the anger and guilt of the situation before he can admit to what he really is and once he does, he takes that first step to recovery. Alicia, a recovering alcoholic, can relate to his struggles and she softens up to him, even tries to help him. Which leads to more, the chemistry between these two is electric and undeniable, and they could only ignore it for so long. But things are not that simple for them, he is new to recovery and relationships are not recommended and she plans for her life that do not include him, she also has friends who are not Chase Matthews fans. This story just blew me away, it grabbed not just my attention but my heart too, the emotions pour off the pages, heartfelt and gut wrenching ones, and that ending, lets say I am happy that the next book is coming to audio soon, otherwise I may have flipped out. Chase and Alicia's story is not over yet, there is more to come and I am looking forward to see where it goes. This book is definitely one of Kacey Shea’s best works yet, ok, maybe I say that about all her books, but this one covers a topic that is close to my heart and she does an amazing job handling alcoholism and recovery. This story is beautifully plotted with plenty of drama, angst, heartfelt emotions and some steamy romance. Chase definitely redeems himself in this book in a number of ways, kittens included. Kacey Shea, thank you for another amazing novel and emotional rollercoaster ride..

🎧 📚🎧 And for the fabulous narration, Teddy Hamilton and Savannah Peachwood are the perfect cast to bring these characters and their story to life. They had a complete understanding of the characters they portrayed, gave each a voice that fit that character’s persona to a tee, sounded believable in every role they played, and just as I pictured the characters to sound. Savannah Peachwood’s Alicia was spot on, she grasped her every emotion and had you feeling them, Teddy Hamilton did the same for Chase. Both were great at covering the roles of the secondary characters, too. These mega talented narrators are versatile voice artists and entertaining storytellers. Thank you for another exceptional listen, it is always a pleasure to listen to your audiobooks.

An Amazing and Memorable Story!!

Emotional, Passionate, Inspiring and Brilliantly brought to life by Teddy Hamilton and Savannah Peachwood.

Caught in the Chase is beautifully and masterfully crafted. It has it all, suspense, tragedy, steamy romance, sweetness, angst and much more. You can feel it all through the engrossing, and fascinating performance by this two amazing narrators that make you feel as if you are part of the story.

All in all, this amazing and memorable story that'll touch the depths of your soul, and get you hooked right from the start. I absolutely loved it, and highly recommend it.

Redemption at it's finest!!

Kacey!!! I don't know whether I love you or hate you right now!!! Seriously though, you completely killed me with this story!!! I was not a fan of Chase or really Alicia prior to this book. In fact, I'm not sure I would have said they needed or even deserved a happy ending. But this book changed EVERYTHING! Right from the beginning you feel the characters, you get what/how they feel, all of it, the highest of highs and especially when they both hit rock bottom. Chase's journey of discovery and enlightenment is HUGE. Alicia grows in this story, but you can tell still has work to do. I enjoyed getting more some of the side characters from previous books, but we also get to meet some new people around the community center in Kittyhawk. And the narration was absolutely perfect with Teddy Hamilton and Savannah Peachwood. The cliffhanger was a killer, but I will be anxiously awaiting the audio of Caught in Us ❤

Stellar narration!

Hi! I am Kacey Shea, the author of Caught in the Chase. When I casted Savannah and Teddy in this story, I knew it would be good, but after listening I was completely blown away! The emotions! The angst! Their voices elevate this story and I felt every second.

Teddy Hamilton captures Chase and all his struggles with such an honest vulnerability. From his cocky attitude to his fall from grace, Teddy delivers all the feels.

Savannah Peachwood has voiced all the books in this series. What stands out is her ability to create distinctive character voices and maintain them throughout. She's such a talented narrator!

If you love stories that delve into forgiveness, healing, and love, all while providing outstanding narration, then I think you're going to enjoy this book.

Captivating, Emotional, and Steamy Romance!

I was totally captivated by this emotional, and steamy romance. Alicia has been working hard to overcome her past bad decisions and addictions. After a heartbreaking event, Chase is just now being forced to face his. he isn't ready to admit he really needs help until he and Alicia are forced to work together. They have a history that Alicia is trying to forget. She is looking for a fresh new start in her life and is not happy to have Chase be a part of that. But the more time they spend together, they both see who they are underneath. They are both facing their need to please others to their detriment and starting to heal and become stronger. But Alicia is afraid to trust in Chase, especially when he is having a hard time proving he is strong enough to face the hard truths. This is such a powerful and compelling love story. Alicia and Chase are such wonderfully flawed and broken characters, and my heart broke for them both, especially during some of the flashback memories. I loved how they worked to be better people, but still face a long road ahead.
The narration by Teddy Hamilton and Savannah Peachwood was fabulous! They are so perfectly cast as Chase and Alicia, as they skillfully made these characters so clear to me, making me care for them quickly. They took my breath away as they build the tension of the story, and the fiery attraction between Chase and Alicia as well. Their banter was brilliant, and they conveyed the depth and complexity of all their emotions beautifully. I love their dynamic voices, and was completely lost in their performance.
This story will take you on a rollercoaster of emotion and angst, with twists that will keep you totally engaged and will linger in your thoughts long after you finish listening. I can't wait to find out what happens next for Alicia and Chase in Caught in Us!

This one has all the FEELS!

Chase and Alicia have baggage separate from each other yet intwined. They have scorching hot chemistry mixed with a lot of angst. Their journey will take you through a gamut of emotions and the ending will have you begging for more. Teddy Hamilton and Savannah Peachwood’s narration is fantastic.

What a book!! Bring tissues!!

I was prepared to dislike Chase from the beginning, especially since he was such a douche in book 1. However, as his story progressed, we saw a lost, motherless little boy who had always sought his dad’s approval. Then there was the big secret!! Wow! Then came Alicia…I was on the fence with Alicia…the poor little rich girl who finally stood up to her parents and decided to make her way. Again, her backstory was eye opening. These two broken souls find friendship and love together but is that the best thing? Great story that will tear at your heart strings. The author did a wonderful job handling some very serious topics. The narration team did justice to the characters and gave you all the feels!! Looking forward to the conclusion of Chase and Alicia’s story in the next book.
I voluntarily accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

Redemption!

Kasey Shea wrote an amazing story of redemption and hope in Caught in the Chase. I loved how Chase and Alicia learned to trust and not second judge. There were some very realistic scenes where one is caught in the moment. Savannah Peachwood and Teddy Hamilton both performed the book flawlessly. They had chemistry and the right emotions. I was fully immersed in this steamy romance.
