Book Description

Jan 5 2010 Texas! Tyler Family Saga
In the second book in #1 New York Times bestselling author Sandra Brown’s beloved Texas! trilogy, readers meet another son of the troubled Tyler clan—Chase Tyler, a man hardened by life and desperately trying to outrun the sorrows of his past.
 

Chase Tyler has been the object of Marcie Johns’s desire since grade school. But when it came time to settle down, the handsome, laconic cowboy chose another woman to be his bride. Life was good for Chase—until things took an abrupt and tragic turn. Ravaged by grief, Chase has become a lost and embittered soul, a man without purpose, compassion, or hope.

Then fate intercedes, reuniting Chase and Marcie, who was an unwitting player in Chase’s unfathomable family tragedy. Guilt weighs heavily on Marcie, but she’s also convinced that only the strength of her love can pull Chase back from the abyss. She’s willing to risk everything on a daring plan to rescue his business, save his life, and bring them together at last.

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

This slick contemporary romance focuses on a second member of the Texas Tyler family, the clan first seen in Texas! Lucky . It is a switch on the hoary scenario of boy loves girl, loses girl, wins girl: in these feminist times it is the girl (here a woman with her own real estate agency) who does the loving, the losing and the winning. Marcie Johns has loved Chase Tyler since grade school, but, being the class brain, knew she didn't have a chance with the handsome boy who called her Goosey. Years later, she has been retained by Chase and his wife, Tanya, to find the couple a house. When Tanya is killed in the car Marcie is driving, the bereaved Chase goes on the skids and it is Marcie who sobers him up, gets him back into the failing family oil business, offers a loan, proposes marriage. Marcie's machinations are misunderstood by Chase, adding a modicum of interest to an overly formulaic plot. The novel climaxes with Marcie and Chase in bed, where "the pleasure was immense. Overwhelming. Ecstasy eddied around him in shimmering waves that matched the tempo of her gentle contractions." Apparently Brown intends to immortalize the Tylers in a trilogy, which should please those seeking hard-bound counterparts to the Ewings of Dallas.

The announcer raised his voice to an eardrum-blasting volume as the gate swung open and the mottled, gray bull charged out, swinging his hindquarters to and fro and, moving in opposition, thrashing his head from side to side. Read the first page

IMO, this is the best of the three books in the series. By the end of Lucky, we know Chase doesn't live happily ever after with his wife. In a tragic turn of events, a car crash took the lives of his beloved wife and unborn child in a matter of seconds.
Ravaged by grief, Chase turns to drinking and his old pasttime, bullriding. No one has seen him in months, no one knows where he is until the only person in the world who understands his grief runs into him by sheer accident...Marcie Johns, the woman driving the car the night his wife was killed.
Marcie has been racked with guilt since that fateful night two years ago. Driving her newfound friend and customer to a house showing, realtor and old family friend Marcie, is hit by a car who runs a redlight. Nearly dying herself, she hasn't seen nor heard from Chase Tyler since that night, but at a Fort Worth bullriding competition, she is shocked to see him drunk and riding.
Hateful and angry and lost, Chase resents her help and pity. Marcie makes it her mission to save him before he ends up killing himself. What she doesn't expect is for old feelings to surface. Feelings of love she's had for Chase since she was in K-5.
Chase in turn is shocked to realize he wants Marcie and needs her. But can he do this? Can he fall for the woman who was in the very car with his wife when she died? Is he willing to take that chance to love again?
Things become even foggier when Marcie offers Chase a chance at saving his company from financial ruin with a tempting proposition.
Can the bookworm seduce the broken and beaten cowboy?
I loved this touching story. This proves once again that love does indeed heal all wounds, both deep and small.

I agree with the reader from Sacramento and am also surprised at the high rating this book received. I'm not sure how readers can even compare this book to some of her other work. I was completely bored with it and only kept reading it because of Brown's reputation as a great author, hoping it would improve. And she is a great author, but I don't seem to enjoy her contemporary romances. This book was dull (putting it mildly) compared to her other books. Her historicals are good. Her suspense/romance are wonderful, but her contemporaries just don't cut it. But for the reader in Sacramento, don't give up on Brown. She really is a spectacular author, even though if her name hadn't been on the cover of this book, I never would have guessed that she wrote it. In fact, after reading some of her books such as Tiding of Great Joy, Standoff and this one, I sometimes wonder if there is someone else out there parading around as Sandra Brown. I've been consistently disappointed with her just plain romances. I recently read Envy and I couldn't put it down. It's a top notch read. I also loved the Alibi, Witness, Fat Tuesday,Breath of Scandal, Mirror Image, to name a few. But those books had quite a bit of suspense/thriller plot to them and that's where she shines. After reading Texas Chase, I'm not in a big hurry to read the other two in the trilogy. The only reason I gave this book 1 star is because I had to.

I am surprised by the high ratings for this book. I thought this was a horrible book.

The plot was good, and I loved the heroine, Marcie. Marcie was a very strong, confident, and knew exactly what she wanted out of life. And what she wanted was Chase. It was a little creepy that she bought the house Chase's wife wanted before she died though.

But I couldn't believe the hero, Chase was such a complete jerk. He had no redeeming qualities what so ever.... he never seems to mature throughout the whole book... He's so self-centered in the reading of this book that it just made my blood boil, because I wanted something bad to happen to him.

Puuleaseee! What is there that is attractive at all about this beefcake jerk with the maturity of a spoiled brat. ...

This is the second Sandra Brown book I have read. ... But "Texas! Chase" has got to be one of the worst books I have read. I don't believe I will try to read the other Texas books. The other characters, brother and sister of this book were not interesting characters either. Books about them would probably just be about torturous too.
