3.5-4 starsThis was a pretty good story. I liked both Jessie and B.J. and was rooting for them from the beginning. This is the first story I've read by this author and based off this, I"d be willing to try more of her work in the future.Jessie is an auto parts sales person. She was the only daughter of a man that owned a garage and could change oil by the time she was 10 years old. Due to a heart attack, the family garage was sold so when Jessie went on the job search she ended up as a auto parts sales person and did a great job at it. The problem is, being a sales person has her travelling all over and she's tired of it. She wants to settle down and get a life...and maybe a man.B.J. is a good guy. He owns a garage that used to be his dads and is currently planning an expansion in to an auto parts store that will be opening soon. B.J. hasn't had any real interest in bringing a woman in to his life. He's been too busy getting his house and new business set up.Jessie is on her way to a meeting when her car gets a flat tire. She's rather frustrated about this because she knows the owner of the garage she was heading to is opening a new business and she was hoping to speak to him about a management position in the store or maybe even buying in as a partner with some of the money she's saved over the years. Jessie lucks out when a tow truck with a sexy guy named B.J. stops to help her. He tows her car to the very garage she'd been headed to but no one else is there. She assumes she's missed the boss (she'd heard he was an older man so obviously was thinking of B.J.'s dad) and B.J. helps her out with her flat tire. There's a very strong attraction between Jessie and B.J. and Jessie is a few years older than B.J. but she looks good so she decides to try to seduce B.J. It doesn't end up taking much as B.J. is just as interested in Jessie as she is in him. They end up having explosive sex in the garage and then Jessie goes back to B.J.'s place with him and they have more sex. They end up spending the weekend together, having awesome sex and getting to know each other and liking each other. When the weekend ends, Jessie is very hopeful about getting the job because she wants to stick around an try to make something more with B.J. Then some difficulties come...B.J. knows he'd be stupid not to hire Jessie as she'd be a great asset but for business reasons (sexual harassment laws and all that) if he hires her, they shouldn't be involved in a relationship. Jessie is excited about the job but not so much when she finds out about the job coming between them. Both of them are bothered by not being able to be together any more and Jessie isn't very accepting of it. Over the next month or so, Jessie tries to get B.J. to realize he wants her more than he's worried about legal issues with mixed success. It takes a bit before things get worked out but they do get worked out and Jessie and B.J. end the story with a sweet HEA.This was a pretty enjoyable story. I liked both Jessie and B.J. and liked their story. It drew me in from the beginning, wondering how things would work out and I liked how they did work out. This story was well written for the length of the story and I didn't feel it was too short or rushed. I'd recommend this story. :D
