Hot Rod Hookups

"This romance sizzles on the page in a slow burn that finally ignites in a grand finale. Their eventual union is well worth the wait, and made even sweeter by watching them overcome their struggles in order to discover their true selves." - Sasha Klimchock, Reedsy

Shawn Cobb thought he'd found the perfect girl... until she fell in love with another woman. It could be worse: he did get a vintage car out of the deal.

But now his job is at a standstill, he's running out of cash, and he's stuck with a 1954 Chevy Bel Air that refuses to stay running. With idle hands, all he can think about is his own misfortune... until a buxom bartender needs his help with a sticky situation.

Jess White is a mechanic by day, bartender by night– with a sexy athlete boyfriend to boot. And things are starting to get serious: so serious, that her boyfriend wants her to give up her day job at her dad's garage.

But when her dad kicks her out of the house and a heartbroken handyman leans on her expertise to get his vintage hot rod road-ready, she questions why she ever hung up the wrench in the first place. After all, he seems to like it when she gets her hands dirty...

Can the two of them get away with mixing work and pleasure? Or is this whole affair about to backfire?

Hot Rod Hookups is a contemporary romance with themes of small town life, coming of age, and finding purpose. It is the stand-alone sequel to Betting on the House, Fixer Upper Romance Book 1.
