I have to say I liked this one much better than the first one goes in terms of the storyline.  I still recommend all of them so far.  I haven't come across this type of story of Kristen's in awhile that's emotional but also has an HEA that you'll love.  Boone just doesn't give up and him and Ryn are perfect.

I received this book at my request and have voluntarily left this unbiased review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

After reading Dream Maker I knew that I needed the next book and here we go, Boone and Ryn! 

Ryn has her plate full what with working, the house she is doing up and looking after her family so a boyfriend is the last thing on her mind...enter Boone. 

I really don't want to say anymore because if you loved the original KA then you will love this (just with a bit of extra kink thrown in!) 

This story was beautifully written, full of friendship, family and love and also.....Chaos!!!!

“We weren’t dark and light, fitting perfectly. We both had our dark. We both had our light. We just fit. Perfectly.”

What You’ll Find:
✔️Contemporary Romance
✔️Heroine In Danger 
✔️Commando Hero
✔️Dom/Sub relationship 
✔️Dual POV

If you read Dream Maker you know that Ryn shot Boone down already. But like most KA alpha men, when they decide to wade in... they are all in. And all it takes in this case is some family backstabbing and danger for Boone to be all in. But that doesn’t come without conflict. And Ryn standing her ground about what she deserves.

Both Ryn and Boone come from troubled pasts. That have has impacts on their relationships. But one thing they have in common is their BDSM lifestyle. I would say this has light BDSM scenes. But even those are few. This story packs some great steam, but also has elements of humour, emotion, suspense and action. With some twists that will leave you wanting more in this series ASAP!

What I love most about this series is the all the returning characters from previous series. From the fantastic group of women who stick together, to the men who go all out to help as well.. they truly make this story and series. I could definitely relate to Luke when he said he was having flashbacks. It definitely felt like something straight out of Rock Chicks. While I feel you could read this as a standalone, it truly is experienced so much better if you’ve read the Dream Man, Chaos and Rock Chick Series.

Thank you to the author, Forever Publishing (Grand Central Publishing) and NetGalley for this eARC my honest review.

Loved this!!!! Ryn and Boone know each other through a friend. But Ryn is nowhere near ready for all that is Boone. She has her hands full with her job, family, and her dreams, but let’s not forget she’s a little damaged. 

When Boone steps in and has had enough, Ryns life explodes and if that wasn’t bad enough she’s kidnapped again, someone is trying to kill her, and she’s trying to keep away from Boone. 

He’s not gonna let that happen, he’s done with games and things are heating up! Love the other series character are in this, so many side characters can sometimes make you lose the story but these just add to it. LOVE LOVE LOVE this book

I have been waiting for Ryn's story forever ever since I finished the first book in the Dream Team series. Like I need to know how Ryn will end up with Boone and how their relationship will work especially since they are both involved with the BDSM lifestyle. I got to know now. It took a bit of time but I totally screamed when I received the ARC of Dream Chaser. I could not stop myself. I can say that you won't regret reading Dream Chaser.
Dream Chaser starts off with a few months after the first book. Ryn is somewhat in a funk especially with Boone when he starts dating. You cannot blame him since she keeps rejecting him whenever he asks her out. She is not blameless but she does have some issues that Boone should have realized when he took interest with her. It takes two to tango, and soon enough Ryn and Boone will discover that when Ryn becomes a target again.
Nothing is ever easy in Kristen Ashley books. And we should not too. It adds more depth to her characters and their breakthrough. And that's what Ryn and Boone needs in their life because they have some heavy baggage in their life that they need to unload and face together. They won't be perfect when they handle their problems. But we can expect them to be there for each other when it matters no matter what. 
I won't go too much into details since I don't want to spoil it. But expect craziness yet sexy but yet drama yet cute moments. In that order.

Thank you to Netgalley and publisher for this advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

Kristen Ashley is pulling us back into her world with the Dream Team series. I love going back into her books because there is also mention of characters from previous books or series, and then I dont really have to say "goodbye" to my favorite characters.

Dream Chaser is Boone and Ryn's story.  They are both strong willed people who will do anything amd everything for those they love. The attraction is instant, but off course theres a few speed bumps towards their happily ever after.
I could not put this down. Many hours of sleep have been sacrificed with absolutely zero regret!

Now we just have to wait until summer 2021 for book 3. 🤣

"So tear down the walls, Ryn, I want in, I’m getting in and we’re gonna see where this goes.” - Boone

I was so excited to dive back in to the Dream Team series. The first novella and book in this series really set up everything. Unlike the Rock Chick series, this is more of a continuation of the previous books. Though it follows a different couple, the underlying theme of bad guys/problems/plot stems from the first book. It reminds me of the Chaos series in that respect, which is one of my favorite KA series.

Boone and Ryn were absolute fire together. I loved their dynamic and I loved the way that they complimented each other perfectly. While they were from such extremely different backgrounds, they each had what the other needed.

Ryn was a fantastic heroine and I was rooting for her the entire time. She's strong because she has to be. She has people who rely on her to be strong and stay strong. It was beautiful the way she was able to let go and not be the strong one for Boone. He was her safe place.

The cameos in this book from the Rock Chick crew and Chaos guys were perfect. It was like visiting old friends, and it put a huge smile on my face.

I can tell that this will be a series I revisit again and again. And I cannot WAIT for Axl and Hattie's book. Cannot. Wait.

This was a good second installment in the Dream Team series. You see a lot of the other girls from throughout Kristen Ashley's other series as well as the couple from the first book in the series. This book features on Boone and Kathryn though. Boone is a brooding Alphahole and I absolutely love it because for the most part he doesn't step over her boundaries and push his alphaness too much. He has his own set of issues within the story though there isn't a lot of focus on it. 

Kathryn or Ryn as she is most commonly referred to in the book is a headstrong and heartstrong heroine who unfortunately lets herself be walked all over at times. She has a crappy family aside from her mom. She is very self sufficient and sassy and I really liked that about her. 

The main plot in this book outside of their romance was kind of a carry on from the first book and I feel like it wasn't fleshed out the way it could have been. There were lots of gaping holes within it in my opinion. All in all I enjoyed the story and am looking forward to the next installment.

Dream Chaser is the second book in the Dream Team series and while I enjoyed the first book a lot, there was something about this one that drew me in immediately. I'm not sure if it was I knew the characters better or if the main characters in this one just had an effect on me. Regardless, it was a great read!

Kathryn, Ryn, to her friends has aspirations of having a home flipping business, but right now she's making ends meet by working at Smithie's as a dancer. While she's trying to make the most of what she's got, she's got family members that have made her life anything but easy, including her Dad and her alcoholic brother. She's got an adorable niece and nephew she would do anything for, but her brother's ex doesn't make it easy for her to see them. Add to that that she has had less than a great track record with guys, plus she's submissive, and you've got the picture.

When Ryn meets Boone, she's immediately drawn to him and to his Dom tendencies, however she is intimidated and she's not all that thrilled with some information he provides to her. Boone is extremely protective and he's loyal to a fault, not only to his boys, but also to those he's close to. As their relationship develops, we see how difficulties in both their pasts have shaped them, but how supportive they are of one another, while also being both hot and sweet with one another.

I enjoyed the entire story that developed around these two and how they both evolved over the course of the story. They definitely had chemistry and it jumped off the page. Plus, it was great to see many familiar faces grace the pages as well! Looking forward to the next one in this series!

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title courtesy of NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review**

I have enjoyed this series in part due to the same vibe and the cameos of the Rock Chicks, Dream Men, and Chaos. This is a newer set of commandos that work for Hawk and with the whole Hot Bunch.  And these new women who work at Smithie's are finding themselves in the middle of trouble similar to the rock chicks and finding love along the way with bossy commandos. 

Sure the storylines are familiar. There are various antagonists, mysteries, kidnappings, deaths, threats, and action. But the closeness and bond between the characters gives it more heart. I love how all of KA worlds just kind of crash over into this series. 

This one is Boone and Ryn's story. They have been set up by Lottie before but Ryn was resistant, so Boone moved on. Ryn likes to be independent and tends to take care of all those around her. But now Ryn is in need of help, and Boone has decided he will be her protector and finally claim her as his. He is bossy, intrusive, protective, possessive, and just like all the KA alphas. They have similar proclivities in the bedroom and have a fun rapport. 

But Ryn is in the middle of a mess that began when she and the Dream Team were kidnapped before and there seems to be a ripple effect happening. So they all have to circle around Ryn, use their resources, and try to figure out how to take down the bad guys. And Ryn has other family dynamics issues going on, and her dream job is not really to dance for men. So she has plans for her future that she wants to be alive to partake in. And Boone has made it his mission to keep her safe and help her follow her dreams. 

But he has his own set of demons he tries to keep locked down, and who knows what might trigger him. These two are both headstrong and a bit stubborn, but also truly care about others. Many times people take advantage of her kindness, and Boone is determined that will not keep happening. But the most important thing is to keep her alive until they can figure out how to settle the situation

This is a romantic suspense story with heat, humor, and a bunch of old friends. This series seems more like vintage KA and it makes it easier to sit down and get sucked back into the world. I am looking forward to more with Hattie and Axl and Pepper and Auggie.

Is it possible for a stripper to find true love? Ryn doesn’t think so. She has given up on love, until Boone bursts into her life and changes everything.

Ryn has never had it easy and she has learned life isn’t fair and good things don’t happen to someone like her. So she is resigned to her life as a stripper. She has bigger plans, but she isn't sure she will ever be able to achieve them because her family’s problems keep interrupting her goals. Rye has a heart of gold and sadly, she continually puts everyone else’s needs before her own. She is easy to like and I kept rooting for her and hoping she would finally get a break.

Boone likes Ryn, but at first she won’t give him a chance. Boone works for Hawk as a commando. If you have read KA’s other books, you know who Hawke is and if you haven’t, Hawk runs an underground security company. If someone has a problem and no one else can get it done, Hawk can. All the guys who work for Hawk are tough, the best in the business and good looking alpha males.

I loved Boone. He has issues from his past, but so does Ryn. Boone is dominating, charming, sweet, protective and treats Ryn really well. Boone and Ryn are funny and snarky and I loved all their verbal foreplay. They are both into BDSM and once they get together, they have sizzling chemistry.

There are bad guys, dirty cops and Hawk and his commandos are doing everything they can to keep Ryn safe. This is a fun, entertaining, action packed story with lots of alpha males, dirty talk and sexy times. I enjoyed many of the entertaining characters from KA’s past books making appearances in this one and was fun catching up with them. This is another wonderful Kristen Ashley story.

Dream Chaser centers on Ryn and Boone. Ryn knows that this commando is bad news for her, but like most of us, when we are attracted to someone, resistance is difficult if not impossible. Their story is not perfect (whose is) but it showed me that when it comes to life and death matters, love is what you need - that and an extremely sexy Boone. 
Dream Team book 2 is absolutely what made me love Kristen Ashley books in the very beginning and that the Rock Chicks comes along for the ride, is just perfect.

2.5 stars
So I’ve read most of Kristen Ashley’s books, and I am a fan of most of the series’, but this one was a miss for me. For most of KA’s books you can read the series out of order—they’ll mention people you don’t know but it’s not integral to the plot. However with this book you really do have to read the first book in the series. There are multiple plot issues that won’t make sense otherwise. Also, there are a lot of characters from other series’ that are brought into this series, as if they all live in a tiny town & therefore it would be plausible that they all know each other (FYI the series takes place in the greater Denver area). 
Disregarding these small plot holes, I will admit I wasn’t a fan of the hero Boone. KA is always a fan of alpha males, but Boone is a bit too alpha for my taste. He’s very controlling, and I have a hard time believing Ryn would be so accepting (I understand that sexually they are dom/sub, but in other areas there don’t seem to be good boundaries).
I didn’t hate the book, to be clear, but it’s still a miss for me.
Thank you to NetGalley & Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for this advanced reader copy. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

I'm loving this series and these guys and gals. Ryn and Boone are great together, they just fit so perfectly. I loved the banter between them and also how Boone handled all the stuff plaguing Ryn. I can't wait for the next one.

Ryn and Boone’s story was a sweet read. I loved the strong friendships-male and female-featured throughout the book. My other favorite bits were those stripped bare, emotional moments between Boone and Ryn that really got to the core of each character and shaped them in to who they were. My main dissatisfaction was that I would have liked more time spent on Boone and Ryn’s developing relationship, but Ryn’s dramas and the plethora of cameos took on a life of its own and just ran...

Overall, I enjoyed a lot about the book and have pegged whom I’m most interested in seeing get together! 

I received an advance reader copy from Netgalley/Grand Central Publishing and this is my honest review.

I had such a pleasure in reading this stunning book and I adored every single moment of the reading of it. Dream Chaser is the continuation of the “Dream Team” series and I absolutely adored every single moment. From the first day that I was given this ARC copy from the publisher for a review, I couldn’t put this sucker down. It had such feeling and heart and whenever I immerse myself into a Kristen Ashley novel, I am always overwhelmed by how this author can always captivate me no matter what day it is or what mood I am in, I know I am in for a fabulous time especially since she is such a “comfort” author for me in so many forms of ways that I cannot adequatelely express.

Dream Chaser features our main couple: Ryn Jansen and Boone Sadler. In this fabulous novel, we have a story that will capture your attention in all the best of ways. Ryn Jansen, works as a stripper for the famous “Smithie’s” and her dancing is out of the world. But her problems begin with the drama from her brother’s ex. Ryn has a love for her niece and nephew, and they her. But her brother has issues and isn’t that involved and his ex, is a drama queen and is abusive in other ways. Now Ryn’s life is packed with family drama in trying to figure out a way to get her niece and nephew healthy and happy once again, and trying to deal with a challenging commando…Boone Sadler. Boone is nothing like what Ryn ever expected, but he is a man that has her back even in showing her how her family is conning her for man, money she works hard for. But as the family drama escalates in ways she never expected, her relationship with Boone turns into one she never thought she would ever be so blessed with and will fight for each other…

Dream Chaser is a powerhouse of a read and I absolutely adored Ryn in many respects. I loved her love for her family and her hard working spirit and her creativity that just charms you in such way. I found Boone to be so entertaining and my type of alpha male that is bound to amuse any reader. I love how he stands up to Ryn when needed and isn’t ashamed of his masculinity in any way. He is who he is. Boy I respect that especially in my heroes. I really loved how he has Ryn’s back even if she doesn’t appreciate what he does for her in the beginning. I am always captivated in the way these relationship start off because, honestly, its highly amusing in so many factors and I can’t get enough. Once we see our pair come together fully and stop fighting their feelings for each other, this begins to be a romance of heart deep wrenching emotion that keeps one in the moment along side with them.

Overall I found Dream Chaser to be a thrilling and emotionally stimulant of romance and stunning emotion that will thrall you in all of the best of ways. An enriching love tale for all!!

Fun. Positive. Romantic. Funny. All the usual, zany, feel-good Kristen Ashley goodness told in the way that Kristen Ashley's unique voice tells stories. I said it after reading book one of this series and I'll say it again, the Dream Team books feel like throwbacks to original KA stories. Full of love and patience and crazy capers with characters who leave a lasting mark, Dream Chaser follows the love story of Ryn and Boone and the rest of the Denver cast of characters.

I enjoyed the elements of a different lifestyle KA threaded through Ryn and Boone's story that really showcased the alpha traits of a KA hero we all love so much. And Ryn's sassy personality that complimented it so well. Sometimes, especially in these times, we need to just to let go and feel the love and strength and hilarity of good romance. Dream Chaser provides that escape in spades and is a great Kristen Ashley story.

I love these characters. Ryn is so interesting to me. She has issues but she’s strong and she tries to do all the things. Boone...wooo, Boone. Yes, please! Their chemistry is perfect. I like how Ryn dealt with him in the beginning and how he responded.  I also loved the realness of the family relationships. 

When I started this book, I wasn't sure where it going but loved the ride getting to the end. There are so many cameos from characters in other books. (You don't have to have read those to enjoy this one.) I want to reread some and read for the first time others. 

I was provided an ARC of this book and am thrilled to share my honest review.

Pure Kristen Ashley! You can always count on her to give you what you want. Its comforting, like home. This series is the new generation of the Rock chicks and I'm so glad she brought us back in. Of course I loved Ryn and Boone! Bring on more of the Dream Team!

Ryn is not your typical stripper; she wants to be a house flipper, but she gives the extra lap dance so she can help support her brother's ex-wife who says she needs the money to take care of Ryn's adorable niece and nephew. Only Ryn's ex sister-in-law is totally playing her.

Enter Boone Sadler, another alpha male with the dream team, who opens Ryn's eyes to the truth and rescues her. In more ways than one. 

The path to their romantic HEA is strewn with murder, kidnapping, bad cops, all the criminal elements. Oh, and Ryn -- much to Boone's dismay -- accidentally befriends a criminal. 

For KA fans, Dream Chaser is familiar like a comfortable pair of sweatpants. The pages fly by quickly, the storyline and characters grab our attention and emotions, and the sex sizzles in the air like the steam room at my gym. At times, I wondered aloud where Ms. Ashley gets her inspiration. I would seriously like to meet the men who inspire Mo, Mag, Boone, and even Cisco, the criminal. Or is he? Perhaps he deserves his own story...

Loved that the Chaos team gets reeled in as well, so once again characters from previous KA books give us a glimpse of their now lives. Looking forward to the next book in the series!

Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC of #DreamChaser!
