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:
Chasing McCree is a wonderful young adult contemporary romance. The book follows popular girl Briar Thompson as she begins to embark on her senior year of high school. Everything seems like it will be perfect, until the day that Briar meets Chase McCree. Briar befriends the misplaced cowboy when no one else will and ends up finding her true place in the world and the life she was meant to live.
I thought that the voice of Briar was very realistic and believable - it seemed like the dialogue and thoughts were right out of a teenage girl's mind. The problems that Briar faces in the book are all things that readers can relate to, which makes Briar easy to identify with. I felt that this book was well written and had a great flow. This was a fairly light and easy read, but it was interesting to see how the main character and her friends/family dealt with the issues that came about throughout the book. Overall, this was a good read and I enjoyed it.
About the Author:
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.
