Description

Engineer Kristen McKenna loves to make things go fast. So when NASCAR team owner Matthew Knight offers her a job, Kristen's competitive spirit shifts into overdrive. But she has to struggle to keep her mind on her blueprints and off her dangerously appealing boss. Kristen's always been more comfortable in a lab than on a date--but suddenly both Matthew and Todd Peters, the supersexy team driver, are vying for her attention! Things heat up both on and off the track as Kristen finds herself torn between the two men. And as sparks begin to fly around the garage, she discovers that there's more to life than spoilers and engine specs. But can Kristen design a finish that gets both her team--and her heart--to Victory Lane?

I was actually a little let down with this latest offering in Pamela Britton's NASCAR series. I was disappointed that only one character from previous books in the series made a cameo...and it was quite short. That can be overlooked. But, the love triangle was weak and the resolving of the triangle

was unsatisfying. Sad to say, but the story outside of the romance was actually more interesting.

Self-made multimillionaire Matthew Knight is under doctor's orders to learn to relax. So, he goes and buys a NASCAR race team. To go along with his race team he also hires on brilliant aeronautical engineer, Kristen McKenna. Kristen is smart, funny and beautiful which is apparent to everyone but

her. It is especially apparent to Matthew's star driver, Todd Peters. When Todd starts making the moves on Kristen, Matthew quickly learns that in life, like in motor sports, you have to move fast to win.

This contemporary romance was interesting in that it was told from three points of view. In fact, I would say Todd's POV as the prospective suitor probably outweighed the POV of the actual primary love interest. Outside of this there wasn't too much surprising about the story. As with Ms. Britton's other NASCAR romances she has a way of actually making the mechanics of NASCAR itself interesting to read about which is good because it almost outweighs the romance part of the story. It is always nice to see characters from the past NASCAR novels although I did rather miss the little announcer blurbs which didn't make it into this edition. All and all another nice entry into the NASCAR romance series.
