I must firstly apologise for the amount of time it has taken me to provide a review of this book, my health was rather bad for quite some time, something that had me in hospital on numerous occasions and simply didnt leave me with the time I once had to do what I love most.

Unfortunately that does mean I have missed the archive date for many of these books, so It would feel unjust throwing any review together without being able to pay attention to each novel properly.

However, I am now back to reading as before and look forward to sharing my honest reviews as always going forward. I thank you f0r the patience and understanding throughout x

I didn’t realise this book was part of a series. If I’d known this I would have read the first two books first. It didn’t stop me enjoying the book. It was fabulous. So well written. Flowed well. The authors use of descriptive language was great, made me wish I was there,

This was my first book by this author, It was pretty enjoyable. I would give this book a 3.5 star rating! It was a pretty Quick and easy read!

I do not know how I missed two things about this book that was fully on display when I checked recently. First, it is the second in a series, usually not a good place to start, and secondly, it is a very religious-themed book. It felt more overt and in full force at the beginning, and these are usually not the kind of books I read, and I almost gave up on it. I am glad I gave it a shot finally because the theme blends into the narrative quite well the further we go in, and it was a cute and pleasant story. The latter is not something I come across quite often, making it an interesting experience.
Our leading lady is somewhat of a celebrity. She found certain directions, which helped a lot of people, and became a book. She has run to NYC and is living there almost incognito. Her boyfriend does a lot of up-down travelling in order to see her. She thinks all of this is behind her when she ends up finding a whole new set of events to handle. I liked Chase for the most part, but despite being well-meaning, she actually does not 'listen' to things when people tell her about boundaries. This would probably blow up in real life! I do not want to go into details because everything happens slowly but reading it did not feel like a chore. The farther I got into it, the more involved I was in the content.
Even with the few behavioural quibbles (including the fact that her boyfriend travelled to his friend's house every day, so much gas usage! When her house had multiple wings that he could have used. This seemed like taking propriety a little too far in this time and age - but that's probably just me) I liked this different story. This would work extremely well for people looking for clean romance/adventure with faith interwoven in it. It can even be a series to follow.
I received an ARC thanks to Netgalley, and the review is entirely based on my own reading experience.

I’m so torn about this title. I did enjoyed the romance part and the luxurious setting overall. But all the mysterious parts were just too far fetched for my liking and I kinda lost interest altogether.
Not sure how to even review it properly to be honest.

Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy

Manhattan, Mansions, Millionaires
Manhattan, mansions, millionaires and mystery in this sequel where Chase is now Manhattan based and takes an assignment that lands her amidst a real mystery. A new adventure, romance abounds with twists and turns aplenty.

In all honesty I found it hard to get into this book. It doesn’t happen often but I just didn’t take to any of the characters and therefore my interest wasn’t there :(

This latest Chase Harrington adventure is so full of romance, kindness, mystery, and astounding twists and turns, it will leave you wanting to grab a flashlight and best friend, to go searching for clues in the dark
Great read

This ARC was provided to me via Kindle by Paraclete Press and #NetGalley for my honest opinion.

Beautifully told, engaging, entertaining tale.

« Chasing Manhattan » is a beautifully told story about Chase, Gavin, their friends... and a country estate with secrets. A really engaging read that you’ll love.

I didn't love this book. I'm not quite sure why I didn't like it. I can't quite put my finger on it. But it was a thumbs down for me. The premise was engaging but the way the story was told and executed had me bored. It just wasn't for me. It wasn't a terrible book, but just not my speed.

I enjoyed this book. Chase Harrington is a character I like reading and the story is entertaining. I found myself thinking about this book when I was not reading it and I couldn’t wait to finish. I look forward to the next book.

I received an advance copy of, Chasing Manhattan, by John Gray. I found this book, dull and boring, especially the characters.
