This book is totally insane — but in the best way. Even if I didn’t regularly do reviews, I’d have to say something after finishing this one. BUT Chasing Gwin #2 starts with no hand-holding and that was a bit of a jolt, then I got into the rhythm of it and I couldn’t put it down. Gwin is sort of a mess, but she’s also weirdly brilliant and much more self-aware than she pretends to be. I spent half chuckling at what spewed out of her mouth and the other half cringing at the disasters she literally stumbled (or sprinted) into.
Nor are the other characters mere filler. All of us have all this other stuff happening, and it all collides in ways that feel very chaotic but also somewhat organic. The world is big and slightly off-kilter, as if anything is possible — as indeed it generally turns out to be. And sure, some of it is unexpectedly emotional. There is one part in particular (you’ll recognize it when you get there) that really smacks you in the face out of nowhere. Totally earned.
It’s not a clean story — not every question is resolved neatly — but I genuinely appreciated that. It felt alive and raw and as though the people in it were making real choices and not just reading lines to us. Totally worth it if you are a fan of quick, snappy writing and characters who sound like they would punch you in the face and then say sorry a week later with a grin.
Note: My physical challenges make me reliant upon mechanical devices and software (I am beta-testing KDP Assist) to read books and write their reviews. Sometimes the equipment makes mistakes. I can only read what’s put before me, and I have no means to compare anything to catch an error. I apologize for any inconvenience caused to others.

An exhilarating psychological thriller
"Chasing Gwin" grabbed me from the first page and never let go. When Gwin’s lover, Eddie, is released from prison, past traumas and unhealed wounds come rushing back. Gwin, a master of disguise with a haunting past, will go to any lengths to protect her twisted version of love — even if it leads her down a murderous path.
Incorrvia expertly blurred the lines between captor and captive, which immersed me in a world where deception reigns and danger lurks around every corner. As Gwin outwits the FBI and local law enforcement, the story delves deep into themes of identity and the roles we play to survive.
What truly sets "Chasing Gwin" apart is the emotional depth behind every twist and turn. It's not just a story about crime; it’s about love, betrayal, and self-preservation. If you’re a fan of dark thrillers that challenge the mind and tug at the heartstrings, this book is a must-read.

Psychologically Complex Thriller
Mesmerizing thriller! Blaring the lines between hero and villain. Gwin, the master manipulator, plays a high stakes cat and mouse game. It kept me on the edge of my seat. This is a must read.
