I've been on pins and needles waiting to read this fourth book in Cat Grant's 'Irresistible Attraction' series. However, I was a good little reviewer and didn't let this jump ahead in the queue no matter how much I was salivating for Steve's happy ever after. Because you see, I despised Steve in the first installment, I learned to like and respect him in the second, and now I was ready to adore him. Thank goodness, Cat Grant and I were on the same page! There was also something in the blurb that nipped at my curiosity. Just a little something that made me go "hmm, I wonder", and it niggled at the back of my head until I had to see if I was right in my wondering.I thought the way Steve and Gil met was hysterical. Here's Steve kicking his Ferrari because it won't start and yelling at it, when Gil walks up, asks if he can help, and thirty seconds later Gil has that sweet ride started up and purring. The following morning, though, when Steve calls him at nine am on a Sunday, upset because whatever Gil did has made the Ferrari really difficult to drive, and Gil heads over only to find out that Steve has never had any software updates done on a car that is basically a giant computer…well, that's when I laughed really hard. Especially when it takes Gil about ten minutes to install the updates. *snort*Steve and Gil begin the ultimate hesitant dating dance with Steve wanting to spend more time with Gil, and Gil knowing it's never going to work and being afraid to tell Steve his secret. Gil is positive that once Steve knows that'll be the end of any dating for them, but Gil can't quite bring himself to tell Steve yet. So, instead, they end up racing the Ferrari for money. Well, Gil's driving and Steve's making the bets, a perfect partnership.It was so much fun watching this story and these guys come together. I totally fell for Gil and my heart broke for him many times until he got his happy ending, too. Since I can only say that yes, I was 100 percent right in what I thought, but I can't tell what it is because that'd be a spoiler, you'll have to read the book to find out if it's as interesting to you as it was to me. And, yes, I adored Steve when it was all said and done. Thanks, Cat.NOTE: This book was provided by Riptide Publishing for the purpose of a review on Rainbow Book Reviews.
