She's not at all what he expected. He's just as sinfully sexy as she remembered. And together they're about to heat up the track.
Grady Hart is the black sheep of his family. For years he's managed the Hart Racing team, but while racing is in his blood, his real passion lies under the hood. Ready to start out on his own, all he needs to do is find a replacement for his old job. However, the best candidate for crew chief isn't someone he would have expected: sweet, proper Annabelle Murrary, the literal Girl Next Door who's definitely grown up since high school.
All her life Annabelle has tried to fit into the role of perfect daughter-and failed. Divorced, broke and living back home with her mother, she's tired of trying to live up to her parents' impossible standards. Taking on the position as crew chief for a successful racing team-and getting her hands dirty-is just what she's looking for...but first she has to get past her old crush on her new boss. After all, it's never smart to mix business with pleasure, or is it?
Kassiah: I loved In the Fast Lane, the first book in the Hard Driving Series by Audra North. This one features Grady (Kerry’s brother) and Annabelle, the girl he grew up next to. Fast forward a few years and Annabelle is back in town, divorced, in debt, and living with her mother. Grady’s striking out on his own, so he finds Annabelle as his replacement for crew chief. Come to find out, Grady and Annabelle both had feelings for each other back in the day and there’s nothing stopping them now.
This was a super fast read and had good banter and characters I liked. There were some sexy scenes, and not too much drama. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series. Audra North is definitely on my radar for authors to watch out for now.
