I could have done without all the references to Isabel's and Cade's former one night stand (that serves to fuel their lingering attraction for each other). I wish the authors had used a different scenario for getting these two main characters together (as well as not having them sleeping together while secretly dating). I also didn't like that Cade seemed to turn to alcohol fairly often--something that seems odd for a race car driver to be imbibing in--though to be fair, he never drove his race car while under the influence.

I did like the two main characters: Cade, a hard charging NASCAR driver who always thought his brother would be the one to carry on the family racing legacy, and Isabel, a marketing representative who has mostly focused on her career and who has had several family disappointments that have built a fence around her heart. I liked that both had family ties to their work and that their families seemed, underneath it all, to be supportive. ( )
