I want to start off by saying how much I love the Buckin' Bull Rider series by author Cassandra Carr and her latest one, Velocity, just proved why I keep wanting more. She wrote such an incredibly loving story, not only between Paolo and Savannah but she also showed the incredible love between two brothers who would do anything for one another. Paolo D'Allesandro has always lived in the shadow of his older brother, Marco, the more experienced bull rider when he meets Savannah Harrington, the grad student, who is following the bull riding tour while working on a thesis. Paolo is immediately smitten with Savannah and they embark on a "fling" that turn into so much more. Paolo realizes that he does not like bull riding and that he only followed in Marco's footstep when they fled their home in Italy. Savannah helps Paolo sort out his feelings and encourages him to find the thing that would make him happy. I really enjoyed their relationship because not only did they have incredible chemistry together, Paolo and Savannah actually had meaningful conversations about the present and future. I adored Paolo, who was sweet, tender and sexy as hell, especially when he spoke those Italian endearments and struggled with expressing his thoughts and feelings in both English and Italian; I swooned each time Paolo spoke. What woman could resist? I really liked Savannah who complemented Paolo really well and was always there for him when he needed her. She always provided encouragement when he felt down on himself and showed him that he was smarter than he gave himself credit for. I admired the courage it took for Paolo to walk away from bull riding and seek the unknown. I rooted for them right from the beginning and could not get enough of their super hot sex scenes. I also loved how close the brothers were and the friendship between Savannah and Natalie, Marco's girlfriend. They were really supportive of one another and I loved that there was no ego or jealousy involved. Another fabulous story by this wonderful author and I'm always begging her for more.
