review 1: Second in a series featuring those hot, 6'5" blond god twins Kasey and Garret Johnson, this one centers on rapidly rising movie star, openly gay Garrett. He begins this tale on the road in Charlotte, North Carolina where he is to be tutored in the art of NASCAR driving (for an upcoming role) by CJ Lamont, one of the leading riders on the circuit, a beautiful and privately tortured soul who is struggling with his marriage because of his hidden secret--he's gay. Like its predecessor Out of Bounds, this one is far more believable in 2014 than it might have been when first published in 2009, but it is nonetheless an extraordinarily researched and brilliantly developed love story with holdover characters from the first book playing crucial roles. This one gets into gear smoothl... morey, builds energy around every wild turn, and finishes with a tremendous burst of speed so that we can all relax when the gang crosses the finish line.
review 2: Pretty good book!I liked seeing more of Kasey and Gram, and both CJ and Garrett are such likeable characters. Slow development of their relationship's nicely to watch :)I didn't like only one thing - CJ's guilt about Rachel and how he's not mad at her, won't sue her and even agreed to pay alimonies to her, without protest. She destroyed his career and she knew perfectly what she's doing and why? He didn't cheat on her, from what I've seen he respected her and tried to make her happy - as much as he could. If she wasn't satisfied she could easily fill for divorce much earlier and simply part ways with him, while staying civilized and respectful, not revealing their dirty laundry to the press. I really hated her for doing it, since it's the worst kind of betrayal I think - like stabbing in the back. It's not like she was chained to CJ or something.Also I'd like to see how CJ's situation worked out at the end. The whole acceptance who you really are theme was great, but I wanted to see what'll happen with him in the future - maybe some small glimpse: did he really ultimately parted ways with racing, did he buy a garage as he wanted - something about that. less
