“Chasing Bliss” is a love story in which Chase Brown meets Bliss Riley. It’s love at first sight, but Chase has a few secrets. He’d almost be the perfect man if it weren’t for the fact that he kills people with a straight razor for his overbearing brother Cyrus, who is harboring an old deep hate for Chase for very valid reasons.
