He’s the NFL superstar looking to return to his roots.
Twelve years ago, he nearly destroyed her family.
Now they’re working together and the attraction she feels is…completely undeniable.

Lucy Dawson dreamed of leaving South Creek. But just went that dream is about to become a reality, the plans go out the window thanks to a two-timing ex and the wedding photographer they’d hired. Now she has to come to grips with not only having to stay in her hometown a little longer, but finding a purpose there. The last person she expected to give her that purpose and offer her everything she’s been looking for was the man who nearly destroyed her family a decade ago.

For twelve years, Jax Wylder has lived with the guilt of causing the accident that nearly took his best friend’s life. Now that he’s looking at retirement after a successful NFL career, he wants to give back to his community—and maybe help clear his conscience—by opening a camp for kids with disabilities. It won’t change what happened to his best friend, but it’s something he feels strongly about. When he learns that Lucy is a pediatric physical therapist, she’s the perfect person to enlist for help. Only he’s surprised to learn that she not only despises him, but blames him for everything that’s gone wrong in her life.

It doesn’t take long for Lucy to realize that she might not have the entire story about Jax and that fateful night twelve years ago. Now she has to balance making amends and fighting the inconvenient but undeniable attraction she feels for him. They have a lot to overcome, but there’s no denying that sometimes there really is a fine line between love and hate.

REVIEW: UNDENIABLE LOVE is the third instalment in Samantha Chase’s contemporary, adult WYLDER LOVE romance series-a spin off from the author’s THE MONTGOMERY BROTHERS and the BAND ON THE RUNS series. This is professional football player Jax Wylder, and pediatric physio-therapist Lucy Dawson’s story line. UNDENIABLE LOVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual omniscient third person perspectives (Lucy and Jax) UNDENIABLE LOVE follows the enemies to lovers, brother’s best friend romance and relationship between our story line couple. Twelve years earlier, Jax Wylder’s life imploded when a car accident nearly destroyed his best friend’s life. Fast forward to present day, Jax is hoping to open a camps for kids with disabilities, and his best friend’s sister is recommended as part of the team. Enter pediatric physio therapist Lucy Dawson, the woman with whom Jax will fall in love. Lucy has spent the last ten years hating our story line hero; blaming Jax for destroying her brother’s future football career, but never knowing the entire truth about what happened or why. When Lucy discovers her fiancé is having an affair, our heroine decides to take a chance with Jax and his kids camp, never expecting to fall in love. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Lucy and Jax, and the potential fall-out as Lucy finds herself on the sidelines when Jax’ career begins to implode.

The world building follows the every changing family dynamics of both the Dawson and Wylder’s family. The Wylder brothers are tight, supporting one another through personal tragedies and triumphs but an unwelcome call reveals secrets from the past. While Lucy struggles to keep her relationship with Jax a secret, she knows that once revealed, will send the Dawson family into a tailspin.

The relationship between Jax and Lucy is a best friend’s sister / enemies to lovers in the wake of the accident twelve years earlier. Lucy has placed all of the blame on our story line hero but once the truth is revealed, Lucy sees something more in Jax, than the man she once hated. There are no $ex scenes, everything is implied.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters most of whom are members of Lucy and Jax’ extended families: Noah and Lily (Irresistible Love 1), Simon and Juliette (Indescribable Love 2); Lucy’s brother Tyler Dawson , and her best friend Gemma.

UNDENIABLE LOVE is a story of misunderstanding and blame, family and friendships, forgiveness and love. The premise is engaging and sensitive; the characters are animated; the romance is tender.

New York Times and USA Today Bestseller/contemporary romance writer Samantha Chase released her debut novel, Jordan’s Return, in November 2011. Although she waited until she was in her 40’s to publish for the first time, writing has been a lifelong passion. Her motivation to take that step was her students: teaching creative writing to elementary age students all the way up through high school and encouraging those students to follow their writing dreams gave Samantha the confidence to take that step as well.

When she’s not working on a new story, she spends her time reading contemporary romances, playing way too many games of Scrabble or Solitaire on Facebook and spending time with her husband of 25 years and their two sons in North Carolina.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 16, 2024

He’s the pop superstar dubbed the friendliest celeb alive.
She’s the jaded publicist forced to represent him.
Working together should be impossible.
But the connection they find in each other is…completely indescribable.

Whenever his childhood became too much, Simon Bennett could always find comfort and escape in music. Like any kid, he’d thought about becoming a big star, but he’d never imagined the level of success he’s found. When documentary producers approach him for some behind the scenes footage for his fans, he isn’t prepared for the painful memories they unearth that he’d rather keep quiet. But when you’re known as one of the sweetest guys in the business, no one takes you seriously when you try to push back.

Juliette Bellucci has a reputation for being a strong and confident publicist. Unfortunately, when you keep working with celebrity trainwrecks who make the wrong kind of headlines, that reputation doesn’t mean a whole lot. And with her latest fiasco still in the press, she’s this close to losing her career and everything she’s worked for. Enter Simon Bennett–the quintessential good guy and her chance at redemption. After all, how can working with the nicest guy in the world go wrong?

Nothing about them makes sense, and yet the closer they become, the more they realize they belong together. Keeping their relationship a secret was supposed to keep them out of trouble, but when Simon’s past threatens to destroy his present, everyone is quick to blame Juliette and her bad track record. When the glare of the spotlight disappears, will they realize the indescribable love they share is the foundation to the future they both want?

REVIEW:INDESCRIBABLE LOVE is the second instalment in Samantha Chase’s contemporary, adult WYLDER BROTHERS romance series-a spin off from the author’s THE MONTGOMERY BROTHERS and the BAND ON THE RUNS series. This is lead singer Simon Bennett Wylder, and publicist Juliette Bellucci’s story line. INDESCRIBABLE LOVE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary. Simon was first introduce in ONE MORE CHANCE /BAND ON THE RUN 4.

Told from omniscient dual third person perspectives (Simon and Juliette) INDESCRIBABLE LOVE follows publicist Juliette Bellucci as she is tasked with ensuring a documentary about singer Simon Bennett runs smoothly but Juliette’s last few contracts have gone exceedingly wrong, and Simon is her final chance at proving herself worthy of the title she holds. Simon Bennett Wylder does not want to be part of a documentary about his life, and wants strict guidelines regarding information about his past. Meeting publicist Juliette Bellucci stirs something deep within our story line hero but a perceived betrayal pushes Juliette out of his life, leaving Simon stagnating in the ruin of his personal demons. What ensues is the building romance and forbidden relationship between Simon and Juliette, and the potential fall-out when betrayal forces Simon to walk away from the woman he loves.

The world building follows the building relationship between Simon and Juliette, a relationship predicated upon close proximity; an forbidden affair in the face of Juliette’s role in his life. As Simon and Juliette are pulled into one another’s orbit, someone else is determined to take them down. Both Simon and Juliette’s pasts are mired in betrayal and abuse, and in this, they become one another’s faux-therapists in the face of heart break and loss. Juliette is a strong willed and aggressive publicist who is about to face another questionable job.

The relationship between Simon and Juliette is one of immediate attraction but both Simon and Juliette know that to proceed with their attraction could end in a spiral. Living together for the sake of the documentary finds Juliette becoming more than friends with our story line hero, a man who is falling for a woman he will blame for everything spiralling out of control. There are no $ex scenes-everything is implied.

The secondary and supporting characters are energetic and determined: Simon’s management team members: Mick Tyler, Simon’s assistant Nikki and her partner Celia; film producers Max Yearsley and Jacob Ward, and Simon’s father Greg Wylder. We are reintroduced to Simon’s brothers Jax and Noah, who are over protective of their brother. Jax’s story is next.

INDESCRIBABLE LOVE is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and greed, power and control, struggle and recovery, forgiveness and love. The premise is captivating and entertaining; the romance is understated; the characters are charming yet desperate.

Now she’s back and everything is…irresistibly complicated.

Lily Montgomery has danced her way through life, getting opportunities that few get, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t earned every single one.

He’s since put in the work to redeem himself and stay under the radar. When she suddenly reappears, he can’t seem to escape her or the memory of their kiss. He knows in order to keep his job, he has to make sure he stays away from the alluring woman that’s never left his mind.

When Lily comes to him needing his help in figuring out what is happening within the Montgomery family, sneaking around leads to heated glances and harmless kisses. Will they realize that the connection they share is real, lasting, and irresistible for either of them to resist?

REVIEW:IRRESISTIBLE LOVE is the first instalment in Samantha Chase’s contemporary, adult WYLDER LOVE romance series- spin off from the author’s THE MONTGOMERY BROTHERS and the BAND ON THE RUNS series. This is businessman Noah Wylder, and dancer Lily Montgomery. Noah Wylder was first introduced in A MERRY MONTGOMERY CHRISTMAS, and his brother Simon ONE MORE CHANCE /BAND ON THE RUN 4. You do not have to have read the original series to follow the story.

Told from omniscient third person perspectives (Noah and Lily) IRRESISTIBLE LOVE focuses on the acrimonious relationship between our story line couple. Approximately three year earlier, a New Year’s Eve kiss between our couple was followed by Lily Montgomery’s disappearance into her dancing, and Noah always on edge working for the large and successful Montgomery family but Lily’s return to the family fold in the wake of a potentially career ending injury meant facing off against one another at every opportunity. Covering for the Montgomery’s while the family was on vacation, Noah never expected to be pulled into Lily’s schemes as she endeavors to uncover her grandfather’s secrets before the family gets home. What ensues is the second chance (of a sorts) relationship between Noah and Lily, and the potential fall-out as Lily struggles with her future, pushing Noah aside for the sake of her career.

The world building follows several paths including Lily’s imploding dance career and a possible career ending injury she refuses to accept; as well as Noah’s battle with low self esteem, Lily’s immature attitude and over the top reactions, and the secrets the Montgomery patriarch had hoped to keep quiet.

The relationship between Noah and Lily is tempestuous at best. Three years earlier, a New Year’s Eve kiss between our couple sent Lily into a tail spin, and Noah became the target of Lily’s over protective father. Fast forward to present day, Noah and Lily struggle to let go of the past but find themselves working together with a gentle nudge from the man in charge. There are no $ex scenes, everything is implied.

There is a large ensemble cast of familiar and energetic secondary and supporting characters including William Montgomery, and his brother Robert; several generations of Montgomery siblings (Mac, Lucas, Jason), as well as the return of Noah’s brothers Simon and Jax, and Lily’s friend and fellow dancer Drea.

IRRESISTIBLE LOVE is a story of secrets and lies, obsession and power, family, friendships, relationships and love. The premise is endearing yet dramatic; the romance is subtle; the characters are struggling but charismatic and determined.
