Description
Unknown NASCAR driver Adam Drake has some of the best moves Rebecca Newman has ever seen, both on and off the track. But she can't afford to feel anything but respect for the new driver she's hired to pilot her race car. With the financial security of her team hanging in the balance and everyone in the series thinking she's nuts, the last thing she needs is lust getting in the way of logic. Too bad Adam has other ideas. Adam isn't afraid of a challenge, but getting close to his new owner is proving to be a tougher road than some of the superspeedways he's driven. It's going to take a secret weapon--his daughter. Soon his precocious ten-year-old has Rebecca on the run--straight into Adam's arms. But can he convince her to stay with him, and leave behind the ghosts of her past once and for all?… (more)
User reviews
On the Edge was a very interesting read. Unlike most romance novels the romance took a back seat to the ins and outs of motor racing. Fit in here and there throughout the book are tidbits about the real world of NASCAR, including the importance of car set ups, tires and how drivers are now hired not only based on their driving ability but also on their media friendliness. All this combined with the very low key and innocent romance between the leading characters kept me glued to the story. It was kind of like listening to my husband talk about NASCAR, which he is a HUGE fan of, but a bit more interesting to me because of the emotional side of the story.
I'm not sure if someone who didn't at least have a passing curiosity about the world of auto racing would have an interest in reading these NASCAR romances and certainly they are not books for those who enjoy the steamier side of romance. However, although I cannot claim to be an avid NASCAR fan myself, I can still say that I really enjoyed this story and I'm looking foward to Pamela Britton's next NASCAR story.
