About CHASING RIVER
Armed with two years' worth of savings and the need to experience life outside the bubble of her Oregon small town, twenty-five-year old Amber Welles is prepared for anything. Except dying in Dublin. Had it not been for the bravery of a stranger, she might have. But he takes off before she has the chance to offer her gratitude. Twenty-four-year-old River Delaney is rattled. No one was supposed to get hurt. But then that American tourist showed up. He couldn't let her die, but he also couldn’t risk being identified at the scene—so, he ran. Back to his everyday life of running his family’s pub. Only, everyday life is getting more and more complicated, thanks to his brother, Aengus, and his criminal associations. When the American girl tracks River down, he quickly realizes how much he likes her, how wrong she is for him. And how dangerous it is to have her around. Chasing her off would be the smart move. Maybe it's because he saved her life, or maybe it's because he's completely different from everything she's left behind, but Amber finds herself chasing after River Delaney. Amber isn’t the kind of girl to chase after anyone. And River isn't the kind of guy she'd want to catch.

"I'll tell you a story about a lowly Irish peasant bartender who falls in love with a beautiful American princess."
Chasing River is a beautifully poignant portrayal of love and friendship. Set in the background of the IRA woes, along with realistic family concerns and life in general.
Amber and River's story shows us, that at any moment you can be unexpectedly knocked off your feet. Removing all inhibitions and falling for the mostly unlikely of persons. Opposites do attract.
Amber Welles, is on a journey. A trip of a lifetime that is supposed to give her freedom and allow her to gain worldly experiences. While, simultaneously, allowing Amber to self assess. Being a nurse and the daughter of the Sheriff. Amber needed to getaway from her busy, straight and narrow lifestyle, and overprotective family. Armed with her wits, and nervously stepping outside of her comfort zone. Amber sets off on her journey, that will prove to be more exciting and dangerous than she thought possible. Her predictable life, soon gets turned upside down, when a green eyed stranger saves her life.
River Delaney, the green eyed savior. A simple barman, situated in Dublin. Being the middle child, with two brothers, the oldest always getting into trouble, and the youngest, a carefree, fun loving person. River's family owns and runs, one of the oldest pubs in Ireland, and have strong ties to the IRA and is deep rooted with Ireland's struggles. It's because of his brother, that the IRA struggles, forces him to save an unknown victim, Amber, from a bombing.
After saving Amber, not wanting to get caught by the police, River immediately disappears. Amber can't seem to get this stranger out of her mind. She changes her course and soon tracks River down. When they meet across the bar, there is an unmistakable attraction, that draws them both in. Amidst the IRA struggles, and their family concerns. River, the rough neck, barman, falls for Amber Welles, the prim and proper, 'good girl.'
“I haven’t forgotten what you did for me, River. I’ll never forget.”
I must say that I loved the way Amber's character was constantly evolving, when she stepped outside of her comfort zone. She kept taking risks, not knowing the outcome, but just moved ahead, with her goal in mind. Then there was River; the way his past melded with the present, to create such a well rounded character. To be caught up again with trouble due to his brother's plight.
The rule breaker clashes with the rule follower. How ironic!
K.A. Tucker brought out some fierce themes within this book, and I will say, I learned somewhat about the IRA struggles, because I just finished watching all the seasons of Sons of Anarchy. But, I learned so much more than I intended from reading this book. It was a bit on the overloading side for me. Because I thought this took away from the romantic aspect of the book and between the characters.
I loved this statement/dream the most. Because I am always one for being spontaneous and removing all inhibitions. I was wawed that Amber took this to heart.
“1. Have a torrid affair with a foreigner. Country: TBD.”
An enjoyable and suspenseful read, that keeps your mind wondering throughout.
