Description
Elisha Crimson thought her wedding day would be the happiest of her life. But losing her fiancé to two thugs in a dark sedan wasn’t part of the plan. She, along with the rest of the wedding party, can do nothing to stop the abrupt abduction, so she pursues at the first opportunity, navigating the West Virginia interstate in a white wedding dress behind the wheel of a pickup truck. But will she catch the sedan in time to save her one true love?
Ronnie Washington had known his past would catch up with him, eventually, but he hadn’t expected it to happen on his wedding day. He hates enclosed spaces, and now he’s bouncing around in the trunk of a car after being abducted from the ceremony. His only hope is to talk his way out, but the thugs don’t seem inclined to listen. He knows Elisha will come after him, but, even if she catches them, what can she possibly do against men like these?
Can these two unlikely heroes save the day, and the wedding, or is their life together over before it even starts?

There she was, the nervous bride, coming down the aisle to her waiting groom, only a few steps left and BAM, Elisha’s man is unceremoniously abducted by two sinister looking thugs. Not to be denied her husband, Elisha begins what will become a madcap chase as she hightails out after the black sedan with Ronnie in the trunk. What the heck? What is going on? Spitting her chew into a cup, still dressed in her gown, Elisha is on a mission, but where is that sedan going? Why did they take Ronnie? Will Elisha get her man? Can she do it on her own? Will Ronnie still be alive? And let’s revisit why?
THE BRIDAL CHASE by Robert Downs is chaotic mayhem, from the bride’s thoughts to the groom’s claustrophobia or his newfound position as a punching bag? Crazy fast, comical and certainly a furious feat of imagination from Robert Downs, either Ronnie is the most loved man ever or he may be safer in the hands of the thugs…A quick read that will leave saying: What???

This is a short story that hits the ground running, literally. The premise is great, captures me right off the bat, but then loses a little momentum.
The bride is so thrilled and excited for her wedding, as is the groom. The scene from each of their perspectives is of anticipation and a little awe they have managed to get themselves this far.
Then it it all goes to shit, and fast. The remainder of the story is a car chase, with the bride chasing after her kidnapped groom. Excellent driving skills.....
Fun, fast read and my favorite take away, the blue shoes.
This story was simply amazing. I could not put the book down. I was so invested in it, that I neglected to do housework for a day. I cannot wait to read more from this author
