Part of the Playing With the Boys series. Writer Giselle is on assignment to cover an off-road race, a trendy sport she knows absolutely nothing about. Then she meets hunky mechanic Ky. The chemistry between them sizzles from the moment they lay eyes on each other. Their lust is off the charts, but there’s also an innate emotional connection between them that stems from having lost a parent. As Giselle is drowning in sexual bliss, she discovers Ky isn’t just a mechanic for the race team-he owns the team. Plus, he’s a championship driver, carrying on his father’s legacy. Suddenly, Giselle’s ashamed of having shared the story of her financial struggles with Ky. But he’s not about to let her forget how hot they are for each other. And maybe he’ll convince her there’s more between them than pure pleasure.

Reviewer’s Thoughts:
A short, sweet romance of lust at first sight and love at second. Giselle is a woman from a humble background who has worked hard to get away from that life. It’s a work in progress. When she meets Ky, she thinks she’s met someone she can finally be herself with. There’s no need to put on airs or pretend to be anything that she’s not. Little does she know that his means are anything but humble. Giselle’s dilemma is a strange one. Ky does not hold her humble origins against her, but she holds them against herself. Don’t all women dream of meeting someone who does not care about their past?
I enjoyed how even through the sexual hum between Giselle and Ky there was that feeling of something special going on between them. They still managed to get to know each other. Beautifully written, I would just have preferred more time to get to know the characters. If you’ve got a spare couple of hours and want a quick, sweet read, I would definitely suggest giving this one a try.
