Chasing Sam (Vegas Mates #1) by Krystal Shannan

Review:

Samantha Demakis doesn’t want a mate right now. She wants to finish her degree and work as a doctor in third world countries. Her birth-rite and family obligations to her status as the first daughter of a noble family beg to differ.

In fact, even her wolf seems to be against her. When a chance encounter reveals the man who might just be a perfect fit, will she run? Or will she fight?

Chase Michaels has been alone for seventy-five years. He’s fought in Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, and Afghanistan in the US Army. Somewhat resigned to never finding his true mate, he is shocked when his wolf reacts so strongly to a woman he runs into in the airport.

Unprepared for the politics and snobbery of the noble families, Chase finds himself fighting in a different type of war —a war for the heart of a woman he knows should be his.

A lot of things are chasing Sam, but who or what will catch her in the end?

There is a lot that I really liked about Chasing Sam, but there was also a lot that I felt could have used just a little bit more development and detail as well.

I thought the world and the cast of characters were great but the flux detail between changes or shifting wasn't as fluid or as I would have expected them to be and the characters could have used some more development however I did think it was interesting to see the difference between their shifter personalities and their human ones but they weren't as favorable to me and although Chasing Sam is a part of a series it doesn't feel as if its done. It didn't quite feel like a cliff hanger ending it just didn't feel over.

Its still a good read and I'm interested in the world the author has created but I am hoping for more development out of it in later revisions.
