Susan's Review of Bride & Seek by Samantha Chase

Cammie Parker is ready for a fresh start.

Just because she didn’t get her own happy ending, doesn’t mean she’s any less committed to helping other couples find theirs. And a new job with the event coordinator at a gorgeous mountain resort is the perfect way to do just that. It would be the perfect fresh start if not for her first assignment: helping her cheating jerk of an ex and his new fiancée plan their wedding.

Cade Taylor needs to shake things up.

There’s nothing wrong with loving what you do, but when your job becomes your whole life, something’s got to give. Cade knows he’s in a rut, but he just can’t seem to break out of it no matter what he does. When Cammie shows up in one of his equipment sheds looking like she needs a quick escape, Cade sees the perfect opportunity to put a little bit of excitement back in his life.

What starts out as a way to avoid her ex soon turns into a crazy—and sexy—game of hide and seek. But you can only hide for so long, especially if you want a real shot at your own happy ever after.

Bride & Seek is a charming romance about a couple who needs some laughter and romance! Samantha Chase writes an engaging, romantic story for Cammie Walker and Cade Taylor. Who wouldn’t want to read a novel about a couple that meets in a tool shed?

A broken engagement is a blessing in disguise for Cammie as she is able to pursue an opportunity of a lifetime. She’s just started her dream job as an event coordinator at the luxurious Emerald Grove resort. Everything seems to going her way until her ex -fiancé and his future wife show up and book their wedding at Emerald Grove! Grounds manager Cade Taylor is surprised to find Cammie hiding in his shed and sweetly offers to help her if she needed another hiding spot. I loved the immediate attraction between the couple and their teasing banter!

Samantha Chase employs the children’s game of hide and seek to draw the reader into the novel. I felt for Cammie; brokenhearted she left her friends and her job for a fresh start. Loved how she regained her self-confidence as the story unfolded. I could understand Cade--he’s put so much time and energy into his job that he’s has no social life. It was so much fun to read the couples hide and seek adventures and to watch their romance develop.

Bride and Seek is well written and engaging. The storyline is fun and the dialogue is fantastic. Loved how the couple’s flirty banter and sense of fun brought them together— this made it an enjoyable read for me.

If you are looking for a heartwarming, feel good romance—Bride & Seek is the perfect book for you! I enjoyed Samantha Chase’s Enchanted Bridal series and am looking forward to The Engagement Embargo—part of her new Meet Me at the Alter series.
