Book Description
(Via Goodreads)
Briar Thompson had it all. The right clothes, the right friends, the right car. Being popular was all that mattered. Her parents were rich and treated like royalty throughout the community. She thought her senior year of high school was going perfectly, until the night her drink was spiked at a party by one of her so called friends.
That was the night she met Chase McCree.
Chase wanted to go back to Montana. To the ranch and the wild, wide blue sky that went on forever. He wanted nothing to do with flashy cars or spoiled rich kids. But he found himself head over boots for the quirky cheerleader who turned her back on her social status. She befriended him when no one else would.
Shunned and hurt by the people who were once her friends, Briar flees with Chase to his family ranch in Montana. There she discovers another world, and apart of herself she never knew.
The cowboy wasn’t like anyone she’d ever met. The cheerleader wasn’t like anyone he’d ever met. Apart their lives didn’t seem to make sense, but together, they were chasing forever.

Review
Oh my Goodness, this was a great story! Literally by the end, I was just so happy with how things ended! We read from two POVs, which happen to be the main characters of this story, Chase and Briar, and they are just a match, you can tell by the first chapter when Chase saves her from an unfortunate incident. That night changes everything for both of them, because they become the best of friends, and of course that friendship turns into something so beautiful. After they finish their school year, Chase takes Briar to his home state of Montana, and there, it is quite different from what Briar is used too, but for some reason, she just doesn't care and is simply happy being with Chase, and learning the ropes of a ranch style life. There are things that stand in their happiness, though, for one Briar's stuffy wealthy parents, and some people from Briar's former inner stuffy circle, that seem to not understand why Briar would want to be with a Cowboy...but what they do not know, is who Chase McCree really is, and they are in for a surprise when they do find out.
There was a great style of writing seen here, and a wonderful flow and good scenes between the characters. Speaking of characters, I thought they were all developed greatly, including Briar and Chase. You can really understand where they come from, and at times, you'll feel for these two. Briar was one little feisty and good hearted character, and you will be rooting for what she sometimes gets herself into. Chase, now, he was just a wonderful male character, just like Briar did, you will fall in love with him too, probably in the first couple of chapters. He's just a good and respectable young man, and I was definitely swooning, like Briar :)
This is a story that has misunderstandings, jealousy, humor, love and so much more, and I just know you'll just feel happy with how things go, as this was a lovely story with a smiling outcome :)
My Rating: 4.2/5
I say PG-13

Author Bio
I'm J.C. Isabella, and I love to write. I've been writing for about ten years now. Mostly it was just for fun, for me. But my friends liked my work, so I decided to self publish. I hope you enjoy the rest of my site, and the books I have written.
The reason I chose to write romance, is because I love a happy ending. In YA there are so many lessons to be learned, so many firsts to be had. Why not write about first kisses, first crushes, or trying to explain to your father you were bitten by your boyfriend, who happens to be a werewolf?
One thing I will always promise in my books is a happy ending. I've always hated getting to the end of a really great novel, and feeling let down because it didn't end the way I thought it should. So about ten years ago, I decided to write a book. I remember it was about these kids who hijack a boat to find buried treasure in Mexico....
Needless to say, my writing has come a long way since my teen years, and I know I have room to improve, but I feel guilty having these books sitting in my computer, with no one to read them. So I'm putting them out for the world to see!
I try not to take myself too seriously. I'm not an editor, nor am I a total wiz when it comes to grammar or language. I try my darndest though, and I hope to give people an enjoyable read that is nice a break from reality.
I put a lot of work into what I do, and I appreciate people reading my work. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
