But when an accident at the race track happens, Tamara finds herself doubting her decisions. It's not long before these two are mad for each other, and soon Tamara puts all her reservations about their relationship aside.

Elec is just wonderful for Tamara's bruised ego and even though she's not happy about the state of her body after having two kids, Elec makes her feel like she's the sexiest, most beautiful woman on the planet. And he gets along beautifully with her children. They not only have sexual chemistry, but they connect emotionally. Well, throughout the book, Elec constantly proves to Tamara just how good together they are. First of all, he's younger than her he's got a risky profession her in-laws (who she's very close to) have had a falling out with his family and she has her young children to consider. What's a girl to do? The smart thing for Tamara would be to chalk it up as a one-night-stand-after all, Elec is not the kind of man she could see in her future-he would just be all wrong for her. They spend a wildly passionate night together, and it's not until the morning after that Tamara finds out some important facts, like his last name, his age (26!), and his occupation (race car driver!). But neither Tamara or Elec is ready to call it a night. Sparks fly fast and furious, and through a quirk of fate, they share a cab ride home. No sooner does she make that decision, then she meets a guy who flips all her switches, and then some! She literally bumps into sexy Elec at a party, spilling wine all over him. Since there's no sexual chemistry with her current boyfriend, she decides to cut him loose. Well, she's dating a guy just like that, but he doesn't flip her switches-he's dull as dirt. She's looking for a safe, not too exciting guy, with a steady 9-5 job. Tamara wouldn't mind dating again, but no more getting involved with a guy with a risky job. Her deceased husband was a race car driver, who died in a racing accident 2 years ago. old, is a recent widow with 2 children ages 9 and 7. But it would be like trying to resist chocolate!

He's thoughtful, kind, sentimental, humble, funny, and sexy as all get-out! It's no wonder the heroine, Tamara Briggs, can't resist him, although she certainly tried.

This was probably one of the best contemporary romances I've read all year, and boy was it a hot one! The hero, race car driver Elec (yes, that's his name) Monroe, is a hero any woman would fall in love with.
