Reading It All: Westin's Chase by Cristin Harber

THE MASTER OF EVERYTHING HAS FOUND HIS MATCH Jared Westin knows his reputation and likes it. He gets the job done. No emotion. No baggage. That’s why his elite ops company, The Titan Group, is better than the best. They complete projects classified as mission impossible. And then, in walks a woman as tough as she is sexy. His counterpart in every way, should he choose to admit it. SHE’S NOT WILLING TO LET HER HEART FALL Ousted undercover ATF agent Lilly Chase only answers to “Sugar.” Jared is the only man who can see past her leather-and-lipstick demeanor, and that revelation is terrifying. She was fired for helping Titan on a questionable arrest she should’ve ignored, then partnered with Jared’s rival on an assignment in Afghanistan. Distance and danger do nothing to change her feelings. When she’s left on the side of a mountain to die, an unexpected ally comes forward, and might open her heart. THE STAKES COULDN’T BE HIGHER Saving Sugar isn’t a normal rescue operation. It pits Titan against its rival, Jared against his nemesis. Chasing Sugar’s heart isn’t a simple task, either. She fights him, fights them, always ready to run. When she becomes a pawn in a game of collateral damage, Jared must risk his life to save her—the woman whose bravado and surprising sweetness has given him the one thing he never had. Love.

My Thoughts: Cristin Harber has done it again. Westin’s Chase is full of wild adventure, gun fights, and sexy love scenes. The book starts fast and in Afghanistan. I loved the settings. They were just as amazing as the first two books, but different. The plot is fast and exciting. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what would happen next.

The men of Titan never fail to deliver a rush of strength and sexy cockiness. I keep jumping from which Titan man is my favorite, but Jared Westin might just take the cake. He is sexy, cocky and strong, a Titan man given. He can also be a total hard a** then flip the switch to sweet in an instant. I loved both sides of him. He is the perfect leader for Titan and the perfect man for a hard a** woman like Sugar.

Sugar is, once again, a strong female character. I love strong females that don’t just cry and wait for a guy to save them from all their trouble. Sugar may have known at times that Titan would come, but she surely never took things lying down. She even motivated those around her to be stronger, too. Even when she was being strong she had a beautiful soft side. I wasn’t expecting it but I loved it. She compliments Jared perfectly.

There were several more characters in the book, including the characters from past Titan books. I loved reading how they were doing, and getting that glimpse into their lives. With all of the action, both in battle and in bed, there were still funny and emotional parts in the book. I’ve said this before, but I think this is my favorite Titan book. If she writes another I may have to say it again, but for now, Jared and Sugar are my favorite Titan couple.
