He'll rev her up and drive her to the edge... Rusty West swore she was done with men. Instead, she channeled her passion into West Restoration, the car shop she runs with her sisters. But Rusty's aloof composure fades when the owner of the competition comes striding into her shop, over six feet of sexy, rough-edged confidence…hot enough to send Rusty's motor into overdrive. Reid Parker worked his ass off to get what he wants—and what he wants is West Restoration and its crew. He never expected to find a shop of all-female mechanics…or the stunning redhead who ignites a lust that threatens his cool. But Reid plays carefully. He never, ever gets involved with a woman beyond one night. And no matter how hot the sparks, Rusty will never compromise her business for a man…

Elizabeth's Review
3.5 starsReview copy provided by publisher via net galley
This was a fun read with strong, likable characters. Rusty and Reid both do and excellent job of projecting a strong image that hides people who are sensitive and dealing with pretty hefty insecurities. The concept behind the story is unique. Reid goes to check out his competition for restoring classic cars and discovers a beautiful woman behind the welding mask. A mission to try and buy her business becomes a relationship where they spend time getting to know each other before taking things to the next level. Both of their insecurities come out to play big time with each of them ending things just to reconcile later. The intimate moments between the two are very hot, but I have to admit there were a couple of times when the tone of the sexy times didn't really mesh with the emotional element of the story. Overall, a good read and I would be interested in reading the other books in the series.
