Publisher Description
Chase Walker used to be a good kid—charming, athletic, and with a bright future ahead, but that was before travesty struck his life, sinking him into deep despair. Caught up in a world of drugs and alcohol, he doesn’t notice time slipping away until he’s arrested for underage drinking one night.
Fed up with watching her son destroy his life, Chase’s mom relocates him to live in a small ranching community with his ex-military grandfather. Chase is far from happy about the situation until he meets, Nikki, the cute cheerleader who won’t give football players like him the time of day.
Chase enjoys a good challenge though and sets out to claim Nikki for his own. He soon discovers she’s more than a pretty face—she’s a balm to his troubled spirit also. But when tragedy strikes Nikki’s life too, suddenly Chase finds himself put to the ultimate test. Can he trust Nikki, and all that she’s taught him? Will it be enough?

Chasing nikki - Heart wrenching
I feel tricked. I picked this book up thinking it was another poorly written YA fiction. What I wasn't prepared was for a heart wrenching roller coasted of emotions. I felt attached to characters and cried my eyes out at the end. How could u.

Literally one of the best books I've read in a while. Downloaded just because I was bored and it was there, so worth it! Such a shock made me laugh and cry. Absolute a delight to read.
Well...
To be honest, I literally think my heart broke in two reading this book. Honestly, the relationship between Nikki and Chase was so real, I sounds weird but I was emotionally involved with the characters. I understood Chase and I could relate to his feeling in so many ways, the grieving and the heartbreak. I was such an amazing and heartwarming book, a must-read!
