Release Day Review:Chase the Butterflies by Monica James




CHASE THE BUTTERFLIES
Monica James 
Release date: December 5th
 
 “Victoria, will you marry me?”


Those words changed my life forever…just not in the way it would for most. I had it all until one fateful evening transformed my life in ways I never imagined.

Nine months later, I move to a sleepy little town, hoping to escape the demons of my past. As I attempt to claim back my life, Jude Montgomery enters my world, and things begin to change.

I thought running would appease the nightmares, but I soon discover my past won’t let go. Things are not what they seem, and I begin to question the world as I know it. Jude may hold the answers, but will my love for him blind me to the truth?

Does the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas?
In my case, yes, it does.

Will the truth set me free? Or will it imprison us both?

My name is Victoria Armstrong, and this is my story…I think.

What I thought about Chase The Butterflies


Wow!  What a mind bender!  Unexpected twists and turns made this book really interesting for me, so I don't want to spoil that for other readers, but I will say that there was a point in this book that I couldn't turn the pages fast enough to find out what was going to happen.  Chase the Butterflies is creative and a different sort of romance, and I really liked the story and the sentiments behind it.

Victoria's life is shattered, and somehow she has to learn to move forward again.  Things get complicated when Jude arrives. Victoria knows that he's important to her life, she just doesn't know how. That importance turns into something much more, and there's clearly a serious romantic connection between them.  Finding out more about that connection brings one of the many surprises in this title.

I really did love this story, mostly for it's investigation into death, dying and the afterlife and what happens to those left behind. Chase the Butterflies is a touching story and I will say there were a number of pages that had me choked up.  If you are looking for a different sort of romance and like surprises, you might just like Chase the Butterflies. 

An ARC was provided for review.
