About The Book

In this spicy sports romance, a woman has to face her attraction to the new man in town, who happens to be her newest rival.

Everything she touches dies.

Roe has always been a trailblazer. From a very young age, she learned that life has its own twists and turns, and the only way of making it out the other side is on your own. When she starts motocross racing, she thinks her biggest challenge will be making it to nationals, until she meets her newest rival.

Everything he wants is out of reach.

Santiago grew up as the caregiver, the glue to his family, especially after the loss that changed his life. He is everyone’s rock but has always felt like something is missing. When Roe unexpectedly barges into his life, she blurs all his carefully constructed lines. But he can’t protect her if she keeps pushing him away.

Roe and Santiago might be rivals, but the undeniable spark between them is hard to ignore. Can they make it to the finish line with their hearts in one piece?

My Thoughts

Have you ever read a story, and the characters are different then what you're used to, and by the time you're finished with said story, you are looking for a person like that? Well, that was me once I finished this book. I've never been feral about heavily tattooed Male characters, but in this case, I was like, Whoa, where can I get one of those. This was such a delightful and entertaining story. After reading this book, I've just added another author to my autobuy pile. I especially enjoyed Roe, and loved how her character was written. I can't wait for the next book from this author.
