Summary: Chasing Demons is Right!
Review: I became a fan of this author after reading her first two novels, and as soon as I knew this book was available, ordered it. Once more, Ms. French has switched genres - she's gone from romantic comedy to psychological thriller to romantic suspense without missing a beat.Kendra Salvatori has her own demon to contend with: her powerful and very violent husband, while Garth Fisher is dealing with his own demon: himself. Garth is living alone on a mountain in North Carolina trying to come to grips with a past mistake when Kendra steps into his life, literally fleeing from her husband. Garth is drawn to Kendra's inner strength and serene manner while Kendra is drawn to Garth's gentle, caring nature. Through their love for one another, both face their demons with courage and a fierce passion to remain together. This is a great read,full of excitement, action, and suspense that will leave you anxiously turning pages. The author continues to deliver the story at a fast pace, with characters with depth and realistic dialogue. Wish there were more books by this author. I'm already waiting for the next one, curious as to which genre she'll write!

Summary: Excellent Story!
Review: Anyone that knows me knows what a huge Christy French fan I have become! As a writer, she is second to none! And as a person she is terrific! Chasing Demons is Christy's thrid novel and what a page-turner she has created with this fantastic story! The characters are well-developed and interesting and the plot had me glued to my cozy seat all during the read of the story. Chasing Demons is a story about a woman who has been under a man's domination and her efforts to become stronger mentally and physically so that she can face him so she will finally be free of him once and for all. Any reader who enjoys a great romantic suspense story, CHASING DEMONS, is the book to top! (I'd give Christy French's CHASING DEMONS more than a 5-star review if that were an option! (Highly Recommended Novel!)

Summary: Best Kind of Romantic Suspense
Review: Since there are several descriptions, I'll skip that part. The climax to "Chasing Demons", when Tony locates Kendra and forces her to leave with him, where Garth is tracking them and finally finds them, where Vincent is doing his own kind of tracking, were so suspenseful, I found myself holding my breath and reading as fast as I could. The story building to the climax is wonderful - a love story between two people who are chasing their own demons. I didn't know what chasing demons meant until my aunt, who lives in the South, explaned it to me: nightmares about traumatic events in your life. I love this title. Wonderful book.

Summary: Action packed!!
Review: Ms French delivers yet another gem for her rapidly growing list of fans to devour. CHASING DEMONS is a fast-paced, smooth read that I found fascinating and impossible to put down. It does what good fiction should do; entertain the reader from beginning to end. Kendra Salvatori is married to the boss of a small crime organization. After years of enduring Tony's brutality, she manages to escape. The parallel stories that materialize are perfectly blended. The gritty, violent side of organized crime is shown by Tony's determination to find Kendra by any means possible. On the flip side, the reader follows Kendra's will to survive and to explore the new, gentle relationship with the man who saved her life. The reader can easily feel many emotions due to strong character development and the unique writing style of the author. This one has it all; mystery, suspense, romance, and a creative plot. I challenge any reader to try to put this book down once they start to read it. The action and drama build until the exhilarating conclusion that left me breathless. Outstanding job Ms French. I eagerly anticipate your next book. You are setting the bar very high for yourself.

Summary: 5+ Stars
Review: Kendra Salvatori is a woman with great inner strength who has lived a life of trauma and abuse, first with her father, than her mobster husband, Tony. Kendra finally finds a way to escape her husband's dominance and practically falls into the arms of Garth Fisher, a former hostage negotiator who is living in seclusion, blaming himself for the death of a woman taken hostage. Garth, perhaps subconsiously seeking redemption, nurses Kendra back to health, then insists she remain with him, on top of a mountain which is practically inaccessible during the winter. Both know that eventually Tony will find his wife and will force her to return to his home. Both vow not to let this happen. The chapters where Tony has found Kendra and forcefully taken her away from Garth are some of the most suspenseful I've ever read. The pace is fast, the characters realistic and believable, the setting perfect. Treat yourself to a good book and read this one. The action and suspense are incredible.

Summary: Another Good One by this Author
Review: My book club chose this book to read and discuss, after reading Ms. French's "Wayne's Dead". I read this one the same day I got it in the mail - I did not want to put it down. It's a great story about a woman who finds the strength to leave her powerful, abusive husband and then to reform herself into a worthy adversary when he finally finds her. The tender, caring relationship that develops between Kendra and Garth is exceptional. Kendra's husband, Tony, is a character you love to hate. Evil to the extreme, but with one weakness: his desire to completely dominate his wife. Vinnie is a great character; I really liked the way the author developed him. Another great book by Ms. French. I'm definitely a fan. I cannot wait to read other books by her.

Summary: Real Page-Turner
Review: I found "Chasing Demons" exciting from the very beginning. The characters are just wonderfully portrayed, from Kendra, the abused wife who finds the strength to escape from her mobster husband, then transforms herself into a stronger person, to Tony, Kendra's husband, a violent, power-mad gangster, to Garth, the long-suffering former hostage negotiator. The story is well-paced and by the time Tony does locate his wife, the story seems to fly. I was so caught up in it by that time, I was flipping through the pages as fast as I read them, anxious to see what was going to happen next. Ms. French is an author I intend to read more, and I highly recommend this action-packed suspense.
