Adam Drake could have been one of the greatest drivers of all time, but when his wife abandoned him and her four year old daughter, Adam gave up racing and focused his attention on making a proper life for his little girl. But now his little girl is ten and wants the best for her father, so she runs away from home and begs Rebecca Newman to give her father a chance to drive again. When Adam raced to Becca’s house to collect his kid, he was stunned by two things – one, by Becca’s offer to try out for a slot on her race team and two, by his attraction to Becca. But Becca is afraid to open her heart to anyone after the death of her husband several years ago and tries her best to chase Adam away, even though he’s the best driver she’s seen in a long time. Now can Adam convince her to take a chance on love again or will Becca continue to be haunted by the ghosts of her past.
I have yet to read one of Pamela’s books that I didn’t like. She always creates wonderful characters that tug at your emotions, but throwing in Adam’s daughter makes this book even better. Her inside knowledge about NASCAR shows in the level of details she includes in this book, though she does it in a way that won’t intimidate anyone. But if you’re a NASCAR fan, you should drop everything, race to the store and read this book. I’m certain you’ll enjoy it.

Bottom line: A great book
