Paisley Bronson is a 27 year old successful advertising professional, but the most exciting part of her life happens outside of work. Claiming the life of a tag chaser toward the end of her college career has taught her one thing - never get too close. She has enjoyed her dating lifestyle, but when her best friend makes a bet that she won't ever be able to date a normal guy, her competitive nature takes control and she vows to change the game.
When Paisley meets the incredibly handsome and practically perfect Corbin Ray, she begins to think keeping her word might be easier than she thought. But when an accidental discovery reveals that Corbin is in the Army, she knows she must run the other way and never look back. Although it kills her, she aims to move on and look for a new prospect.
There's just one small problem.
Paisley's been assigned a new client at work, and his name is Corbin Ray.
Will Paisley and Corbin give in to the chemistry between them, or will their past and present complications keep them apart?
Immerse yourself in this fun and irresistibly naughty game of cat and mouse.
Song Chaser:
For more than a year, Tanner West has tried to shake his feelings for his long time best friend, Paisley Bronson. She was the perfect girl to fit the lyrics in all his favorite songs – the girl he had always wanted. When she fell in love with another man before Tanner had the chance to tell her how he felt, he was left with no resolve to find love again. Burying himself in school and easy girls has become his new lifestyle, but when Kellee Brooks shows up at his favorite bar, he begins to think there may be another verse to his song, after all.
Kellee Brooks moved to New York City for one thing: escape. Growing up in a small town where her entire life was planned out for her, she’s desperate to break free and find herself without following the same path as her mom. Kellee thought working at the local dive bar would mean more money for school, but when she meets the smoldering, scarred honey eyes of Tanner West, she finds there’s much more hiding in the smoky building than just a few tips.
With Paisley still haunting Tanner and Kellee vowing to save anyone the trouble of loving her, will the pain and fear keep them apart – or will they find a way to rewrite their song together?
Break free with this heartbreaking story of letting go and letting love in.
Straight No Chaser:
Tanner West has been through a lot when it comes to his best friend, Paisley Bronson. From being there through her dark past to falling in love with her while she fell for someone else, their story is far from perfect. After Tanner found his true love in Kellee Brooks, things began to fall into place. But when Paisley calls Tanner with surprising news, asking him to step up to the best friend plate once again, he must decide if he's up for the challenge.
This is a short story bromance and should be read after Tag Chaser and Song Chaser.

“I will do everything I can to be the man that you want, the man that the seven-year-old you used to dream about. I will bring you flowers, I’ll take care of you when you’re sick, I’ll give you space when you need it and I’ll never leave your side when you want someone there. I want to be better than I am because of you, Paisley.”
I ABSOLUTELY loved this book. I seriously can't believe I waited so long to read it. This book starts off with a bet from the main character Paisley's best friend McKenzie. Paisley is to stop her Tag Chasing ways and try a real relationship with a normal guy, one that doesn't wear dog tags. Being who she is, Paisley doesn't back down and takes the bet. But boy does she regret it. Not to soon after Paisley makes the bet, she meets Corbin. He is everything I want in a man, so no wonder Paisley wanted him. He is Charming, Sweet, and Sexy as Hell. Oh yeah, did I forget to tell you that he is also in the Army. She finds that out by snooping through his things while he takes unexpected phone call. Realizing he is in the Army, Paisley runs for the hills because she is determined to win that bet. She literally ran out on Corbin at his hotel room. Seriously?! Yeah Seriously! Well after she leaves him she goes home and does what she does best when she emotionally overwhelmed, she bakes. Going to work the next morning she thinks she is in the clear, but low and behold who shows up at her work, Corbin. He becomes her new client. He is wanting to open up a gym. That's when the story takes off. He is determined to not give up without a fight until she agrees to give him a shot. Let me tell you, that Paisley puts up one hell of a fight. After everything that happened with her parents, with her dad cheating on her mom, she doesn't trust anybody. She always keeps people, especially guys at an arms reach away. Never willing to get to close, with the fear of having any relationship go through, what her parents went through. She holds a lot of resentment towards her dad that affects her relationships now. Thats why she chose to be a Tag Chaser, knowing that she would never have to get to close because the guys would eventually leave for deployment, so things never got to serious. But Corbin changed all that. Paisley felt this instant connection with Corbin that scared her. She had never felt this strongly for someone and she tries to fight her growing feelings for him, and Corbin fights right back for her to open up to him. Corbin's very open with her to a point. He opens up to her about his past and wants her to know him and what he wants out of life. But their is one thing that he has not opened up about, which is his phone calls, to who shall be named later on. That leaves poor Paisley wondering who is calling, is it his sister, girlfriend or worse his wife. At this point though she is a goner. Corbin slowly starts taking down Paisley's walls, that she built to keep everyone of interest out. Not knowing rather to trust him or not. She finally, I mean FINALLY gives in and let's him do just that, and slowly let him in. She is falling for Corbin and falling for him hard. And oh my goodness! That first sex scene between Paisley and Corbin was freaking off the charts. Trust me their sexy scenes seem to get hotter and hotter as the book goes on. There is a scene with a restaurant kitchen and the stripping of clothes and a camera that was to die for. Loved it. So, after everything seems to be going right for Paisley, her best friend Tanner enters the picture. Tanner is hot, charming, funny and most of all dependable. He is always there for Paisley, no matter what. But as his visit with her wears on, he is starting to see how much she is falling for Corbin. Which leads to him getting jealous. While Paisley enjoys having Tanner there, she starts to question their friendship and where it's heading. Then one night they are hanging out drinking, and they finally Kiss. Not just a peck either, a full on deep kiss. But as realization hits Paisley on what she is doing, she pulls away from the kiss feeling guilty for having crossed that line with her best friend while falling for Corbin. I literally was yelling at her to stop. Don't get me wrong I love Tanner, but nobody will compare to Corbin in my eyes. Paisley belongs with Corbin. So after that mistake she goes home and Corbin surprises her with a weekend away. More than ready to spend some one on one time with Corbin, she agrees. This right here was a very pivotal moment in their relationship. Paisley finally realizes that her feelings for Corbin are far stronger than she wanted to believe, she was falling in love with him. This was when I also fell hard for Corbin. He is such a sweet, caring and loving individual. He treats Paisley so good. Their weekend away was full of surprises that completely swept Paisley off her feet. The day before the are supposed to leave to go back home, Corbin gets a phone call. But being indisposed in the bathroom, Paisley decides to answer it. I was screaming at her not to do it and she did anyway. Of course you can probably guess what happens next, she once again feels hurt, betrayed and angry about Corbin not telling her the truth about who kept calling him. So of course who does she call to save her, Tanner, who else?! Which leads to Corbin feeling furious and hurt all the same, she didn't even give Corbin a chance to explain, she just left. Then getting to the end of the book, I am a straight out mess. What will happen next? Will Paisley forgive Corbin and give him a chance to explain? Will she try to move from Corbin with Tanner? Will Tanner finally admit his feelings for Paisley? Who was on that phone call? Will Paisley finally forgive her dad and move on from that hurt? You want to know don't you?! Well read the book, I am not going to spoil it for you. But I will tell you, that ending was Perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better ending. Corbin is officially added to my favorite all time book boyfriends. With that being said, I want more Corbin!
This was one of those books for me, that I connected with the main character on such a personal level. I have gone through a lot of what Paisley went through. So, I understood why she felt the way she felt towards her Dad and Corbin, having gone through pretty much the same circumstances in my life. This book left me feeling that maybe one day I will meet my Corbin and have the kind of relationship that's filled with Faith, Hope and Love like theirs. Thank you Kandi Steiner for giving us such and Amazing story and Corbin. I will definitely be reading more of her work. She has a real talent for it. I definitely recommend this book, you will not be disappointed.

Kandi started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic (like most girls brought up on Disney movies).
When Kandi isn’t working or writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys beach days, movie marathons, live music, craft beer and sweet wine – not necessarily in that order.
