To the Limit by Pamela Britton

Kristen McKenna's life has always revolved around speed. When she was younger, she was a promising open wheel race car and now she’s an aerospace engineer. But when mega-billionaire Matthew Knight, owner of the company she works for, purchases a NASCAR race team, Kristen finds herself with the opportunity to become involved with racing again. Matthew finds himself instantly taken with the young woman, but his dedication to his career has left him ill prepared to romance Kristen. To make matters more complicated, Matthew’s driver, Todd Peters also finds himself attracted to the lovely scientist and unlike his boss, Todd has had plenty of practice seducing women. Kristen is surprised by the attention of the two handsome men and isn’t quite sure what to do about it, especially when she’s forced to choose between them. But will Kirsten risk Mathew’s wrath by dating Todd or will she date Mathew knowing that with him, his business will always come first?

If there’s one thing I can count on, it’s Pamela’s newest NASCAR novel will always capture my attention. I love her attention to detail as she manages to portray the details of a life immersed in NASCAR more accurately than any other author I’ve read. While this story sometimes goes over the top when portraying Mathew and his business, I found the love triangle intriguing. She did a great job of keeping you guessing which man she’ll pick. If you like NASCAR and romantic love triangles, then this is the book for you.
