what a great story

I loved the 80's and 90's, and this book sure took me back. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It's a sweet ya book, and one many of us can relate to back in our high school days... Nicole crushing on Chase, an older boy. The narration was pretty good too. It's a great story, very fun to listen to, and brings back memories and feelings from long ago.

Get Ready to #TBT

If you were a late 80's /early 90's baby, get ready to reminisce with some of these references. I'm old enough to remember many of the time period references but young enough to have only experienced a few. Taking us back to that time period was such a fun feature of this story and the familiarity of these references really helps us appreciate and relate to Nicole's situation on a whole different level. I like how the author includes an usual sport like cross country as the central sport of the story, it's unique and brings a different element. Nicole is a strong character and is very well written. I love how the author inches Nicole and Chase together and how their relationship developes throughout the book. Love it.

The narrator was absolutely perfect for this story and did an amazing job bringing out the excitement, angst, and devastation.

4.5 Wonderful Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I loved everything about this book, the characters, the storyline down to the setting, a throwback to the early 2000’s when renting videos at Blockbuster was a thing and cell phone use a novelty. Kayla Tirrell skillfully created a realistic & relatable story of how it was like for many back when they were in High School. Wonderful character development here, adolescents struggling to find themselves and eventually grow in to their own. This is the first book I have read from this author and it will not be my last. It is part of the “Mountain Creek Drive Series” but can be enjoyed as a standalone. I had not read the 1st two books and do not feel like I missed anything in this story. I recommend this book for any adult, young and old, especially great for those feeling a little nostalgia, it really captures the essence of time. Kayla Tirrell thank you for the great read!

Kaye Anderson does a wonderful job narrating the story and bringing the characters and story to life. She performed the voices of all the different characters, switching back & forth effortlessly keeping the story in a perfect flow Thank you for the great listen.

Sweet story seemed second in series (vs. third)

This is a sweet story. It is probably still in the PG range, though there is a reference to hotel rooms after a dance that might prompt some questions from my elementary-age child. The references to popular things from the early 2000s were cute.

I haven't read the first book in the series, but I have read/listened to the second one. I would actually recommend reading this one as the second in the series as the events in this book took place before most of the events in Leah's Song. There are zero spoilers in this book for Leah's song, but there's kind of a spoiler for this one in Leah's Song. Chasing Love could also be read as a stand alone, although I think the characters in this book may overlap more with the first in the series. I can't say for sure, but it seemed like Chasing Love contained references to events in the first book.

Kaye Anderson did a really good job with this one, especially with high school/college age characters.

Let this great audio chase you

This is a great YA romance. It reminds you what we went through as young adults. It brings back insecurity that we had growing up. What we went through growing out of children thoughts and trying to make things right . This story brought back a young girls trying to fit in. How Nicole is a senior at school , but is not very popular. Nicole is what in the 1700 they call a wall flower . Nicole doesn’t feel comfortable around boys , until she starts hanging out with Chase .
Chase was a senior lady yr and now he’s a assistance coach at Track . This story brings me back to my memories, in the 80s rollerblading and 90s music Where there was bluckbuster renting of movies .
Love how Nicole grew as a person

Kaye performance good. Her voice is strong , clear and steady she and did all the characters great

My Chasing Love review

I loved the blooming relationship between Nichole and Chase, and her best friend Amy.

During Nichole’s final year of high school she’s determined to leave her mark and not be invisible anymore. But it’s only after Chase convinces her to join the track team that everything changes... but is it for the better or the worse.
After a failed attempt at dating another track star, Nichole doesn’t know what to do, and Chase’s actions are confusing her even more.

Loved the book, and I can’t wait to listen/read the rest of the series.

Young romance

New author and narrator for me. Enjoyed the story and the way Kaye brought the characters to life. Brought good and bad memories of my own high school days back.
