Özet
adbl_web_anon_alc_button_suppression_t1
After loving Holding Ground, I couldn't wait to return to Echo Lake, and my gosh, this book gave me ALL THE FEELS. From the very first chapter to the epilogue, Collins and Ansel's story had my heart in a chokehold.
Collins absolutely broke my heart. Her grief felt painfully real, but so did her strength. I loved watching her gradually accept that she needed support and begin discovering who she could become after such a devastating loss. Not the person she was before, but someone who could carry her grief while still allowing herself to experience happiness again.
What I particularly appreciated was that the story didn't romanticise her marriage simply because her husband had died. Collins loved him deeply, but their relationship wasn't perfect, and the revelations that emerge force her to confront some incredibly complicated emotions. Grief, anger, betrayal and love can coexist, and I thought Piper Rayne explored that beautifully. Some of those revelations genuinely made me feel sick to my stomach. The emotional impact was THAT powerful.
And ANSEL?! THIS MAN🥹 An absolute golden retriever of an MMC. Patient, thoughtful, supportive and genuinely good. What made me love him even more was that his kindness initially came from friendship, without any expectation of romance. He simply wanted to help someone he cared about find her way through an overwhelming period of grief.
Their love story was beautifully understated. It wasn't about grand gestures, but the little things: remembering how she takes her coffee, checking in, showing up and offering support without trying to fix her. I adored how naturally their friendship developed into something deeper, with honest conversations, healthy boundaries and genuine respect for Collins' emotional journey. Ansel never tried to replace her past or rush her healing. He simply made room for all of it.
The twists and revelations were devastating, but they added so much emotional depth to an already moving story. I also loved seeing the overarching subplot from Holding Ground continue to develop. I'm SO intrigued to see where that storyline goes next!
However, MORE OF THE HAPPY ENDING, PLEASE! 😭 Just like with the first book, I wanted more time enjoying these characters together after everything they'd been through. The bonus scene was lovely, but honestly, I wish they'd been included in the main book!
🎧 The audiobook was phenomenal. Connor Crais and Maxine Mitchell were perfectly cast, delivering performances that felt vulnerable, authentic and emotionally charged. The additional narration from Jason Clarke, Callie Dalton, JF Harding, Aaron Shedlock and Jill Smith made the experience even more immersive. I absolutely loved the full-cast approach!
⭐ 4.5/5 – a heartbreaking yet hopeful story about grief, healing and finding love after loss. Chasing Smoke beautifully captures the complexity of moving forward without forgetting what came before.
Soo good
