Feeling the rush comes with a price...

Mackenzie Cox has lost everything—except Hayden Hayes. With Kenzie's racing career over, and her family no longer speaking to her, Hayden has been her rock, as she tries to pick up the pieces of what was once her life.

But when Hayden's racing team hires his beautiful ex-girlfriend, Felicia, to be their new hotshot rider, Kenzie and Hayden's seemingly solid relationship begins to crack. Kenzie can only watch from the sidelines, as Felicia lives the life she was forced to leave behind, and as tension begins to build between Hayden and Kenzie, she wonders if Hayden isn’t the man she once knew.

Cocktails and Books received this book for free from Inkslinger PR in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.

DANGEROUS RUSH picks up several weeks after FURIOUS RUSH.  Mackenzie and Hayden are trying to pick up the pieces of Cox Racing closing its doors and Hayden’s racing team hiring his ex-girlfriend.  Things have never been easy for this couple and DANGEROUS RUSH definitely puts them to the test.

I had been looking forward to this book because I wanted to know what happened next with Kenzie and Hayden.  But I felt like the story fell a little flat.  We spent more time inside the heads of Hayden and Kenzie than the two of them actually talking to each other.  The silences and lies built up to a point where I wasn’t sure thy would be able to fix everything that had broken.

Kenzie’s relationship with Hayden wasn’t the only one hanging by a thread.  The relationship with her family was in tatters as well.  Her father’s stubbornness almost broke Kenzie, but she proved she was so much stronger than she through when she finally stood up to the tactics her father had used to keep her in line.

I wanted so much more from this story.  I loved Kenzie and Hayden together, but after everything they had been through I needed them both to be a bit stronger.  To trust in one another.  And to have an honest conversation with each other.  Considering their sneaking around caused issues to begin with, I would have thought they learned their lesson.

Mackenzie Cox has a lot to prove. Daughter of a racing legend, she is eager to show the world that she has inherited her father’s talent in the male-dominated sport of professional motorcycle racing. The last thing Kenzie needs is to be antagonized by her rival team’s newest rider, Hayden Hayes. Plucked from the world of illegal street racing, Hayden immediately gets under Kenzie’s skin. His insinuations that Kenzie is a spoiled princess who was handed her career fuels her desire to win, and much to her surprise, Kenzie soon learns she performs better when she’s racing against Hayden.

As Kenzie and Hayden push each other on the track, the electric energy between them off the track shifts into and intense—and strictly forbidden—attraction. The only rule between their two ultra-competitive teams is zero contact. Kenzie always does her best to play by the rules, but when her team slips into a financial crisis, she has no choice but to turn to Hayden for help. The tension simmers during their secret, late-night rendezvous, but Kenzie has too much to lose to give in to her desires. Especially when she begins to doubt that Hayden has completely left his street life behind…
