My Thoughts
What I loved about Chasing You is that it's a story about going from a friends with benefits arrangement to all about the love. Meg and Gray are tangled up in each other from the moment they meet and become so much more to each other. I loved that Gray was all about winning her heart and was all in. He was romantic and they were scorching hot together. I wanted to give him a shake at one point, but I loved how he came back from that one moment. I also love the people surrounding them. I so enjoyed their story.
I give Chasing You 4 hearts!

About the Book
I chased, you pushed
I chased, you friend zoned
I chased, you fell
Now I chase to protect you.
You chased, I resisted
You chased, I accepted
You chased, I fell
Now I pray you’re not too late.
After finally winning the heart of the woman I loved, there
was no way in hell he was taking her from me.

“How was the omelet?”
Meagan’s head snapped up as she glared at me. I placed my
hand on the back of the chair and stood there while her eyes quickly did a once
over. I didn’t normally work on Saturdays, but I’d been working all night with
Derrick on a case. I knew with the weather being unseasonably warm, Meagan
would be here this morning, so I decided to end this silent treatment of hers
once and for all.
She swallowed hard and then straightened her shoulders as
she narrowed her eyes at me. “How did you know I was here?”
I pulled the chair out and sat down as I loosened my tie.
Meagan’s eyes flickered for one moment as I pictured her dirty little mind
going into a fantasy.
“I’m a detective, Meg. It’s my job to know things.”
She let out a curt laugh and rolled her eyes. “I’d hope you
were tracking down the bad people and not what I’ve had for breakfast.” Her
mouth dropped open and she tapped her finger on the side of her mouth. “Oh
wait. You’re sleeping with one of them, so …”
Her voice cut off as she looked away. What in the fuck did
that mean?
“Excuse me?” I asked as I leaned closer to her.
“Never mind.”
Kam walked up and set a black coffee down in front of me
along with a piece of banana nut bread. “There ya go, Gray.” Turning to Meagan,
she smiled. “Do you need anything else, sweetie?”
Meagan flashed her that beautiful smile of hers and shook
her head. “Oh wait! The check please. I’m being chased away.”
“Put it on my tab, Kam,” I said as I continued to watch
Meagan.
She flashed me a dirty look and gathered up her things. I
knew from following her, she normally sat here for a few hours and read as she
people-watched. She’d leave Kam a more than generous tip for taking up a table
all morning, and then she headed to her office.
“I can buy my own breakfast.”
With a nod, I said, “I know that.”
Meagan grunted as she stood. Her next stop would be her
office. She worked for a non-profit organization called Helping Hands. Meagan
worked as a counselor to middle and high school kids dealing with issues like
bullying. I’d never seen anyone so passionate about their job. From the little
I gathered from Grace, Meagan had a hell of a time in college dealing with
bullying of her own.
“Why don’t you spend the day with me, Meg?”
With raised eyebrows, she smirked. “What’s wrong, Claire
busy today so you’re going for your backup?”
My body jerked as if someone had slapped me. “I’m sorry for
taking that call. I didn’t know it was her.”
Something passed over Meagan’s face. “It doesn’t matter.
It’s over and done with.”
I stood and reached for her arm. “Spend the day with me … as
friends.”
Meagan lifted her eyebrow. “Friends?”
“Yes.”
“What are you playing at, Gray?”
With a puzzled look, I flashed her the smile I knew she
loved. Her breath would hitch every time.
Meagan sucked in a breath as she quickly licked her lips.
Bingo.
“Why do you think I’m up to something? You think all I care
about is fucking you; I want to show you that’s not true. I want to show you
how much I enjoy just hanging out with you.”
Meagan glanced around, worried someone had heard what I
said. Turning her head back to me, she narrowed her eyes.
“What did you have in mind?”
