Haley Rosebaum, a city girl on her way to her sister’s wedding when her car breaks down in a small town in the middle of nowhere. She walks to the nearest service station and finds a mechanic. He is not helpful and she feels like he is a complete asshole. She has nowhere else to go, she’s tired, and her feet hurt. She knows she has to play nice in order to get what she wants. She did not bank on getting so much more….
Liam Blackwell, a mechanic who is all man and doesn’t take kindly to getting his perfect evening interrupted. He is a self-certified asshole and is in no mood to deal with a damsel in distress. He gives in, but, a near collision changes everything. He’s agreed to her crazy request, but, little did he know that his past would collide with his future.
The Good:
Ok, let me start by saying that this was a fun, quick read and I adored Liam. Even in his asswholeness, you can see that teddy bear behind the bravado. Haley was an uninhibited tigress, that let her freak flag fly with no shame. Simply brilliant!

The Bad:
Ok, as a blogger/reviewer I have to be the bad guy…this isn’t so bad. There were some unanswered questions that could’ve turned this short awesome story, into a long awesome story. You will see once you read it.

The Ugly:
Haley’s sister and her ex Jack got on my last nerve. This is what I mean by this could’ve been a long awesome story. So much to explore here.

Worth the Read?
This was one of those quick reads that grab you from the beginning and doesn’t let go. Normally I don’t like when the main characters have sex quickly, but, Mickey made it work.
I totally get it. Adrenaline pumping and the need to use all that energy. The chemistry between these two is so intense. I’ve read other reviews that said that there was too much sex, but, what do you expect from two young people in the prime of their lives? This totally worked for me.
Haley asks Liam to accompany her to her sister’s wedding as her fake date. She did not want to show up alone and have to answer questions about her failed relationship with her ex. This is where I feel that this story could’ve been so much more.
This story had several avenues to explore further. They had plenty of obstacles to overcome, which, would expand this story and explore so much. What a great quickie of a story! Kudos Mickey!! Solid 4 Stars!!
