Mac and Lana meet in an airport lounge and bond over their shared enthusiasm for motor sports.

Mac is ex-military and suffering some trauma as a result of her experiences in the service. She doesn't trust easily, not herself or others, and as a result she never lets herself get close to the women she dates.

Lana designs Formula 1 vehicles. She works for her father's company and is fearful of losing her career if he learns she likes women.

The women hit it off quickly. We get the story from Mac's perspective and her self-doubt is agonizing at times, but ultimately worth the ordeal. The sex is hot and plentiful, with some enticing power exchange elements, and the world of fast cars and bikes is written in such a way that I (with no interest in such things in the real world) didn't feel left out.

And that cover art is gorgeous!

Very recommended.

"Dirty hands. Heavy beats. Dancing in a garage. Jeans and boots and T-shirts. Sweat and grease. If there was a heaven, Mac was sure it was like this."… (altro)

This was a relatively interesting story once I was able to wrap my head around what was going on. Things were not clearly explained right off the bat, and I didn't know who all of the characters really were for quite some time. Then, when I thought I figured out what the deal was, another character and relationship dynamic was introduced that made me shake my head. At one point it just felt like Martha was in love with everyone and none of it felt special in any way. Then there was a mystery that got introduced, and it was a decent one. The story overall was a good one, but I found myself frustrated at times where I couldn't love it 100%.
