Chasing Glory

by Lia Preston

He did the crime. He's doing the time. And now he's about to break the rules again... for her .

Discharged and disgruntled, Chase Franklin traded in his Army fatigues for a prison jumpsuit when he confronted his sister's cheating husband. The last thing he wants to do is attend mandatory counseling for an outburst he doesn't regret, that is, until he meets Dr. Gloria Moore.

She's too young for him. She's his doctor. And she's off-limits.

Even though he knows the risks, he can't help but take in every curve of her body, or the way her speech jilts under his gaze. And as forbidden desires reveal themselves, he can't help but want to dig deeper. But when he learns the truth, he knows he must do everything in his power to protect her—even from herself.

I had been looking forward to Chase and Gloria's story ever since I read Where Liberty Dwells. Seeing how these two met and got together was so good! Chase is a protector who landed himself in prison for assaulting his sister's cheating ex. When he is scheduled to attend anger management therapy, he meets Gloria, the counselor, and is instantly smitten by her, even though there's no chance they can be together. He overhears a conversation that causes him to go into protector mode again, and this leads to a domino effect of unfortunate events.. their story is a whirlwind, but WOW is it so good. I loved the action, the steam, and the sweetness between these two. Chase and Gloria were just so good together. I'm really hoping to see Lucian's story next!.

In Chasing Glory: A Curvy Girl Age Gap Instalove Prison Romance we learn about Chase, who went to jail after taking care of his sisters abusive ex-husband. While there he meets Gloria, she’s leading anger management sessions for the prisoners but they have a special connection. They have a few obstacles in their way, mainly Gloria’s ex who is then leader of a biker gang. He wants Gloria for himself. When Chase finally gets parole he knows something is wrong and needs to get to Gloria, the love of his life. Although this book has some violence it is actually a sweet storyline and lovable characters. I hope Lucian gets a book. I would definitely recommend this book.

In this book we meet Gloria Moore & Chase Franklin. Chase is in prison for beating his sister's boyfriend. He knows what he did and knows he would do it all over again for his family. One look at Gloria has him wanting her in that family. Gloria knows there is something different about Chase. She is pretty sure he shouldn't be in her anger management group but to help with his parole she will have him there. Can they find a HEA or will there just be too many cards stacked against them?

Great story by this author. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Chase was in prison after defending his sister from an abuser. He needed to attend anger management where he met Glory, a counsellor. They have an instant connection but try to ignore their feelings due to their circumstances. Their feelings are impossible to deny. Hot, steamy romance with amazing chemistry, a little danger and a wonderful HEA.

I really wasn't sure how this was going to play out but it was a fun book. I liked the characters and the chemistry between Chase and Gloria was great. I didn't quite understand the Axel connection or why he felt he had a hold on Gloria but the ending was terrific.

Who doesn't want a protective man?

Gloria and I fell in love with Chase from the start. Poor Chase didn't deserve to be in jail and Gloria knew it. They both had an instant connection. This was a great sweet and spicy quick read. Just what I needed 😌

I suspend belief when I am reading but only to a certain degree. This book had a million plot holes that took me out of the potential story.
