Physical therapist Dana VanAlstyne's dreams of a family were lost in the dust of a motocross racecourse. Although she's filled her life with her work and church activities, it hasn't filled the empty space inside her. Nor has it eased the heartache of being abandoned by a man who wasn't ready for a wife and children. Now her dream is to open her own private practice. All she needs is the capital to make that happen. Anton, "Mac," Macachek may be the top professional motocross racer in the country but he still has one race that matters more to him: winning a championship at Unadilla Raceway and showing the hometown folks the bad boy did amount to something. But when a horrific accident sidelines those plans, he makes a deal with the woman he once loved with all his heart. A woman who abandoned him. If Dana will get him back in racing shape, he'll fund her new practice. Then an even more dangerous risk is revealed. If Mac races again, he could die. Does Dana have enough faith to risk her heart again? She loved Mac once, but feared he loved motocross racing more than he loved her. If she helps him mend his broken body, will it also mend her broken heart? Or will it all be lost again in the dust and danger of a motocross racetrack? TEAM MACACHEK: Meet the strong women and fearless men of the motocross circuit.… (altro)

"Dana VanAlstyne wasn't the only physical therapist who could get him in shape for the race... She was just the only one he wanted."

Dana has been keeping her life chock-full of physical therapy work and church activities ever since she and Mac split up. And Mac has been rising in fame and fortune as a champion motocross racer, but a medical condition has him privately facing what could be a premature end to his career. He's looking to have one more chance on the track, and one more chance with Dana, in Mending the Motocross Champion by author Jean C. Gordon.

This is a novel that thrives on its backstory, but it's not the kind of backstory that's explained all at once. It unfolds at the pace of the present love story, gradually adding significance to Dana's and Mac's thoughts and actions. Their layered history makes their relationship all the more interesting.

There were some moments past the halfway mark where it felt to me like the story was coasting, though not exactly lagging. But ultimately, the backstory (which leads to a precious and crucial revelation at the end) helped to make up my favorite scene of the novel.

Other fans of Christian romance with second chances should enjoy this opening of the Team Macachek series.
