A few weeks ago I read my first book by author Tracy Wolff, which was Drive Me Crazy, and I absolutely loved it! I was anxious to start reading the Extreme Risk Series. I loved the blurbs for both books and did you see those covers?!?!?! Hot!!Two broken souls. One emotional ride. In Shredded we meet Ophelia and Z. The bad boy of the snowboarding circuit meets his match!This was such a great read! I really did not know what to expect of this series. A few things happened when I started reading Shredded. I think it's actually the first book that I did not connect with both main characters from the start. Z was a big jerk and Ophelia got on my nerves with her attitude at the beginning. Even if my connection with Ophelia and Z was slow, my connection with Cam, Luc and Ash was instant! I just wanted to jump in the book and hang out with them! With that being said ... I did end up connecting with Z and Ophelia. I know exactly the moment that I did. I don't want to give anything away, but from that moment I really started to see the layers of pain that both characters were hiding.Ophelia and Z had instant chemistry, but their romance was slow building. I actually liked that. You could actually see them fall for each other. They learned to let go of their past by trusting each other. Even if I did not connect with them at the beginning, I can't deny that their chemistry was HOT! Eeeep!!! The sexual tension at the beginning of the book was CRAZY!!!!Z, Cam, Luc and Ash's love for snowboarding was contagious! I don't know much about the sport, but my heart was beating fast when I was reading the scenes about it. The only thing I would have to say is that all those snowboarding terms left me confused. I'm totally Team Ophelia and will say that Z ''Spins around a bunch of times.'' LOL!!!Overall, I really enjoyed reading about Ophelia and Z's journey. The ending of this book is not an actual cliffhanger for this couple, but it leaves you hanging for the next book. My heart broke with the last words of the Epilogue :( I can't wait to start reading Ash's story and off course about Cam and Luc's story as well :)I give, Shredded, by Tracy Wolff 3.5 enjoyable, flirty, I-want-to-learn-to-snowboard stars!
