First, let me say that this is not a crazy, angst- ridden self-involved new adult book. Thank God for that. Chase Me is so funny and so sexy and I loved all of the characters that Ms. Bailey introduced. Louis and Roxy have incredible chemistry from the moment Louis opens his door to Roxy standing there, dressed as rabbit, ready to deliver a singing telegram.
Roxy is a tough chick. I really like her, she busts her ass in order to follow her dream of being an actress and she doesn't want to take favors from anyone. Enter Louis, who when we first meet him, he comes off as a manwhore. I mean, the singing telegram is from the chick he slept with the night before! But, he really is a good guy and that becomes clear not that long after he and Roxy meet. While he certainly shared one of Bailey's trademark leading man traits- DOMINANT, he wasn't overbearingly so. Quite frankly, he was downright endearing and he just stole my heart. Of course, the sexytimes between Louis and Roxy are ridiculously hot. Duh.
Oh and just wait until you meet his sisters! Crazy.
This is the first book in the Broke and Beautiful series and we are introduced to the rest of the B & B crew. Roxy's roommates Abby and Honey, Louis's friends, Russell, and Ben. Luckily, we don't have to wait long for more of Ms. Bailey's brand of funny and sexy new adult books, Need Me (Honey and Ben's book) releases 4/21/15! Yaa!
Her sarcastic bubble burst over her head when the door swung open, revealing a guy. A hot-as-hell guy. A naked-except-for-unbuttoned-jeans guy. Being the shameless hussy she was, her gaze immediately dipped to his happy trail, although, on this guy, it really should have been called a rapture path. It started just beneath his belly button, which sat at the bottom of beautifully defined ab muscles.
