About CHASING VENGEANCE
From USA Today bestselling author Katie Reus comes the final story in the explosive Redemption Harbor series where sparks fly and so do bullets…
Wanting her means putting a target on her back…
Layla’s taste in men runs toward the epic side of awful. With one murderous ex-fiancé already behind her, she’s attempting to start over in Redemption Harbor with the help of her bestie, Nova. And wine. Lots of wine. The very thing that helps her make another epic mistake—trying to kiss Xavier, one of her newest friends. So what if he’s sexy, funny, and has completely taken over her fantasies? Relationships and Layla don’t mix. And Xavier is clearly not interested anyway.
But it’s too late to walk away…
Any good hitman has no business forging a personal life…no matter how great the temptation. And Xavier is an exceptionally good hitman, with a long list of enemies. Even if Layla could somehow look past his profession, he’d never put her in jeopardy. But everyone has their breaking point—and when Layla accepts a date with someone else, Xavier’s possessiveness is unleashed. The greater the risk, the sweeter the reward…until Xavier’s sweet Layla is used against him by someone from his past. Now he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her from the enemy hunting her from the shadows.

Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
I binge read the series in the span of two days and I shocked when I reached the final page of the book and found out that this is the final book in the Redemption Harbor series. After seven books, it's time we said goodbye to these characters and that made me a little sad. I do feel like the author could have given a better ending to our characters, but at least this way we have room for the author to revisit the series if she wants to do that someday. The ending was good, but not perfect.
For most of the book, I was picturing myself running after Xavier with a rolling pin, on one hand, trying to make him see how wrong he was. He was so hot and cold when it came to making Layla his which was frustrating. He could have acted a lot better in some situations, but it's all water under the bridge now, I guess. Layla was quite likable and a good person. If you have read the previous book, you will know that her former fiance was not a good man and she is now trying to have a normal life. Of course, when Xavier is your soulmate that possibility flys out of the window. Especially considering that someone is trying to harm her and she and Xavier must run and hide until they find out who that person is.
The suspense part of the story was the part I liked the most. Xavier's reluctance to have Layla in his life because of his profession while was understandable to some extent, made me wanna throw some sense into him and it made him treat her badly in some cases which is the reason why I wasn't a big fan of the romance in this story. Overall though, I would not only recommend the book, but also the series.
