Cassidy Miller has experienced a trauma on the job as a pilot and her career in the future is uncertain. She takes some of her time off to travel with her semi-estranged wealthy father around the Formula One circuit. Ronan Hawes is an F1 driver who is set up to be a serious contender during this racing season. He is incredibly focused and has little time for anything besides racing. Cassidy and Ronan don't seem like people in a place to start a relationship, but they keep being drawn to one another.This was a strange reading experience for me because I didn't feel particularly connected to either main character. Both have a lot of personal issues and challenges that have caused them to put up some emotional walls and remain fairly disconnected from others in general. I think in reading this I felt the emotional distance from them as characters throughout, but it sort of helped me feel that i could understand them a little better because of it. The sexual chemistry they share is undeniable, but I was unsure whether they would be able to really find a way to be together given the issues that they each faced, and the challenges they had to overcome. I think because of their unlikely pairing and the way that they both had to go through a lot of personal growth, I appreciated them and stayed engaged in the story. I think it is always an interesting experience to read about people that aren't like me, and I found myself hoping that these characters would be able to make it work and find the love they both deserve. 3.5 stars.
