| After many years of being verbally abused by her husband, Gloria
Sander' self-esteem was non-existence. Now that she was single again,
Gloria decided it was time to rebuild her confidence. And, the first
ting on her agenda to rediscovering herself was to lose the extra
weight that she had put on during the years of her very unhappy
marriage. So, Gloria signed up for private fitness lessons at a local
gym. Much to Gloria's surprise her personal trainer turned out to be
Landon Barnes, someone from her past.
Landon Barnes was tired of the dating scene. It seemed that the superficial women of today didn't want nothing more than a bed partner and now that Landon was nearing his thirty birthday, he desired a real woman to share the rest of his life with. Landon had all but giving up on finding his special someone until Gloria Sanders walked into his gym. As a teenager, Landon had a crush on Gloria; however, due to the fact that he was only fifteen and she was an adult there was no hope into having a romantic relationship. Now that Landon was a grown man he was determined to claim Gloria as his woman. But, things proved to be more difficult than Landon bargained for because Gloria fought him at every turn. Will Landon be able to convince Gloria that he wasn't nothing like her ex-husband and that their age difference shouldn't stand in the way on their highway to true happiness? Eve Vaughn's All Worked Up is a part of Ellora's Cave Oh Yum! series. Here's a story about two interracial people whose paths crossed once again later on in life. Due to circumstance beyond their control – mainly their age difference – a relationship was never on their immediate horizon. But, as fate would have it, Landon and Gloria have a second chance at love. Gloria was the stepping stone to Landon changing his adolescent life from bad to good. She was the first adult to give him hope and understanding to a better life when he needed it the most. Now it was his turn to give back to Gloria – to show her that she was worthy of love from a strong, caring man. The chemistry between the couple was sweet and tender with a passionate flavor. I found All Worked Up to be a wonderful read and a great edition to Ellora's Cave Oh Yum! Series.
