Immediate
dislike with immediate uncontrollable attraction is the basic premise of the ‘romance’
in this one.
Kip
Sellers is a rookie NASCAR driver seemingly hell bent on sabotaging her career
with her bad girl ways. Lacy McGowen is a former NASCAR photographer turned
wedding photographer. Lacy’s best friend ropes her into giving Sellers’ image a
makeover for a shitload of money.
Both
girls are fighting with their own demons from the past.
There
are a lot of things that didn’t make sense. Like a photographer in-charge of a
makeover? It is not like Lacy is a social media marketing guru but that is the
job description. A haunting accident is the reason for Sellers’
self-destructiveness – but given that kind of an accident, it would be more
believable that she never drives again. But we overlook all this thinking that
different people may react differently in a situation.
The
romance. Or lack of it. There is a lot of description about the huge attraction
and massive physical reaction that the two MCs (Lacy in particular) have
towards each other. But all the emotions are limited to only the sexual.
We
liked the mouthy Lacy more than the angsty Sellers. The sex is good but this
wasn’t the satisfying read it could’ve been.
