| Are you looking for a novel that is fast-paced, filled with sexy dialogue, and a hero and heroine who look danger in the face everyday and live to tell about it? Well then, get your hands on Driven to Distraction!
Blaina Triton has just had her girls' night in cancelled and is looking for something to fill the time. It comes in the form of a dark purple 1970 Barracuda and the hot, hard male body leaning on the car. Blaina loves cars and the combination of sexy car and even sexier man leads to a very passionate night of sex. No names are exchanged but a promise is made to get together again. However, it all changes when Blaina starts her new job. Blaina is a stuntwoman and lives for the exhilaration and danger that her job brings every day. Her new film is sure to be a hit and when she meets the stunt coordinator, she is even more excited for the film. Jay Williams is the man she shared her passionate night with, but suddenly, he is cold as ice. Jay is in fact appalled to see Blaina on set. He knows now that they cannot be involved, but that does not stop him from being possessive with Blaina and wanting her all to himself. He has his reasons for his behavior, but will he ever share them with Blaina? Will their secret relationship ever see the light of day? Ashleigh Raine is the pseudonym for a very talented writing duo. These authors know their stuff! Much of this book is set on a Hollywood type studio as Blaina and Jay work hard to bring the movie and the stunts to life. You will truly feel like you are immersed in the world of movie making as these writers create a very authentic backdrop for the love story. And what a story it is! Blaina may be a stuntwoman but she is looking for love too. She may seem a bit tough when you initially get to know her, but rest assured, while she may talk the talk of the world of movies, she also loves her friends, cars, and she loves Jay. Their passion is blazing hot! They make love just about everywhere imaginable. The writers are not at all afraid to explore the intimacy between Jay and Blaina, so be prepared for a wild time. Jay and Blaina may come together because of their sexual attraction but they stay together because they find companionship, happiness, and ultimately true love together, and that makes for wonderful storytelling. This is the second book in Ashleigh Raine's Hollywood Heat stories and it is not necessary to have read the first, though I think you will want to after finishing this story.
