Is Chase Returning to His Past?

In Book 3 of the Holly Anna Paladin Series, Holly Anna is greatly disturbed when boyfriend, police detective Chase Dexter, tells her suddenly that he's leaving town for a couple of weeks -- and won't tell her why or where he is going! Holly isn't known for great patience, and begins to suspect that Chase is either in trouble, or cheating on her, so she and her best friend decide to follow him. When she sees WHO is hanging around with, she is even more convinced that Chase is returning to his old life and his past love. What follows next is a series of misunderstandings and dangerous situations. Is Chase returning to bad habits of his past? Is he cheating on Holly with his past love? Or are her eyes deceiving her? Will Chase forgive Holly when he finds out she is following him? This book kept me guessing almost to the end (I did figure out part of whodunit before they were revealed). I can't wait for the next in this series! I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I loved it!
