She’s holding tight. He’s hanging loose.
Eve Monroe is a stock-car PR pro who puts her career first—until an on-track wardrobe malfunction reveals more than the sexy smile of jackman Nolan Ford. The video’s become an internet sensation, and it’s Eve’s job to calm the sponsors and put a spin on the unexpected exposure.
And they both have the same drive.
It may be a public relations job, but now that Eve’s seen what’s under Nolan’s crew suit, it’s gotten personal. After a few dates she has Nolan pretty revved up. If only she’d learn to relax and enjoy it. Nolan’s sure that the spontaneous birthday bash he’s throwing for Eve in Las Vegas should loosen her up. Somewhere between cocktails and a smoking-hot motel-room derby, it does more than that. Now Eve’s wrestling with feelings she never expected, as everything about her personal jackman gets harder than she ever imagined.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
McCarthy should have stopped to ask for directions instead of driving straight ahead with her sixth entry in the Fast Track series (after Slow Ride). Her trademark humor and warmth are missing as two secondary series characters take their turn around the track. Eve Monroe is the PR manager for her two NASCAR-driving brothers, but bitterly regrets not pursuing the sport herself. After she scolds team jackman Nolan Ford for accidentally ripping his tracksuit and exposing his backside on national TV, she's surprised when he pursues her romantically. She even warns him that she can be cranky and controlling. Despite her unlikable attitude (which the reader is to infer is some sort of defense mechanism), Nolan pursues Eve aggressively. He generously finds activities to bring Eve out of her shell and open her to the possibility that she can change her career and circumstances. Nolan is charming, but readers will be less willing to wait for Eve to get it together.
