Publisher Description
The most soulful Kavanagh brother tackles the challenge of a lifetime—with a little help from the girl of his dreams.
“Fans of Lori Foster’s SBC Fighters series will love the MMA atmosphere of [Sarah] Robinson’s Legends.”—Library Journal
A topnotch manager and agent, Quinn Kavanagh pictures a life outside of his family’s renowned MMA gym. Beneath his sleek exterior, Quinn has a secret passion for sculpting. But after a nearly fatal motorcycle accident, he’s struggling just to walk again, let alone get back to the studio—and it doesn’t help that the doctor in charge of his physical therapy is his childhood crush. Quinn’s always ready for a fight, but the bittersweet sting of unrequited love has him begging for mercy.
Dr. Kiera Finley is determined to make her medical residency a success. Six years ago, she gave in and shared a single passionate night with Quinn. Now she’s just hoping the cocky lover from her past doesn’t derail her plans for the future. Little by little, though, Kiera gets to know another side of Quinn. She knew he was a family man, devoted to his parents and brothers, but he’s also a free spirit trapped in a cage—and only she has the key. To heal both Quinn’s body and soul, Kiera’s tempted to give him a special kind of medicine.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Robinson concludes her Kavanagh Legends contemporary quartet (after Becoming a Legend) with a perfect blend of smoldering heat and gentle tenderness. After an accident, mixed martial arts fighter Quinn Kavanagh is placed under the care of physical therapist Keira Finley, his first and only love. She has no idea that she broke his heart when she left for college six years earlier. They'd been best friends since they were kids and never experienced life without each other's unwavering support, but when Quinn didn't ask her to stay, Keira needed to prove to herself that she could make it on her own. Quinn's emotional scars run a lot deeper than the physical ones. He's afraid to open himself up to Keira again, but with the encouragement of his boisterous, fun-loving family, he learns to give to himself as freely as he's always given to others. This endearing story showcases Keira and Quinn's easy banter, familiar warmth, and unquenchable heat. Quinn is the last Kavanagh brother to meet his mate, but subtle mentions of potential future love matches among their friends will leave readers eager for spin-offs.
Customer Reviews
A second chance at love for former childhood friends mixed with a MMA theme!
Let me start by saying Chasing a Legend is the first book I’ve read in series but I managed to follow along without too many issues; obviously those who have read the previous book will probably enjoy it more with full understanding of other characters. This is a second chance at love for former childhood friends mixed with a MMA theme. While there is plenty of sweet and sexy moments, there is an underlying angst within as the two characters have to weave back through the messy issues of feelings both in the present and past.
Quinn and Kiera, who tell the book through dual perspective, have a clear attraction that quickly re-develops between them as their paths cross again as patient and physical therapist. The history of the two is clearly explained and adds a depth to their relationship to help solidify their connection and even the tension that needs to be dealt with. Both characters were strong characters that were clearly developed and I love how the author didn’t just brush away the problems of both characters and actually dealt with the issues.
Sarah Robinson has a smooth and easy to read writing style which completely captures you once you start reading, something that is fast making her a must-read author for me.
