Easton Hunter has a one track
mind. Drag racing. He doesn’t require anything but the rush of
adrenaline while on the race track. His nights are full of women and his days
are full of racing. Life is going just as he has planned until a tragedy
strikes his family. He is left to pick up the pieces abruptly turning his life
as he knows it upside down.
Harper Dunn is finally hitting
the big time. Everything that she has ever worked for is falling right into
place. She is determined to take the world by surprise. Nothing gives her more
satisfaction than proving someone wrong that doubted her, especially of the
opposite sex. She has never been in love and isn’t planning on it
anytime soon. That is until she meets three year old Samantha Hunter.
As competition gets steep not
only on the race track but also in their hearts, they have to decide to take
the leap of faith or walk away from the best thing either has ever
encountered.
Can Easton and Harper resist
temptation when it is standing right in front of
them?
Especially when they are car to
car on the race track?
Can you handle the speed at 300
MPH?
“What was I going to
say? Do you remember how I was in bed? Because I am going to be ten times
better than that racing! I knew who you were because you are Easton Hunter. Not
to feed your already much too large ego, but you’re a bad ass
racer.”
“I’m
glad you noticed… I am damn good.” Of course he
isn’t going to keep his mouth shut. Not the only thing he is good
at.
“Why I
didn’t tell you about me is simple. Why would I? Would it have
mattered?”
“Maybe.” He
is starting to move in closer to me and I had to pull my eyes away from him by
turning my head. He looked even better close up. Even better than he looked
last night in the restaurant, even better than in his race gear, and that was a
hard one to beat. I had the sneaky suspicion he looked good in anything. I
already knew he looked gorgeous
naked.
I burst out laughing.
“Give me a break Easton. We were looking for one thing last night and
we both got what we wanted. It wouldn’t have mattered who I
was.”
He didn’t answer but
looked as if he was thinking hard on something.
I waited to see what else he
was going to say. He never seemed lost for words.
“I was impressed with
your racing today. Maybe you are going to be good enough to race me one
day… maybe…” He
states.
We were not even two feet away
from each other and he moved in close to me. It was the first time I could
remember that I didn’t naturally want to step back. On the contrary,
I wanted to move closer. I didn’t fight my urge and moved in to him.
And then we started to kiss like two horny teenagers that hadn’t
kissed before.
We started to kiss and his
aggressiveness was turning me on. He wasn’t thinking before any of
his actions and I found myself dismissing my warning signs as well. This was
not me, but it was a person screaming to get out. Just like last night when we
met, and had unbelievable sex, the best sex I’d ever had might I
add.
My hands were feeling for him
and his just as hungry. The passion off our lips was on fire and we had both
thrown caution out the window and then he stopped and pulled back showing he
had more restraint than I had. And then he returned to my lips and swooped me
up off the ground cradling me as if he was about to take me to his bed. And I
was hoping. Except we were outside of my motor coach. And privacy was not
something we were going to
get.
I tried to pull back and he
moved with me.
“Easton, even you
said it would be one night… no commitment remember…
and?”
“True.” He
kept kissing me. “I know you’re trying to pull away from me
but you can’t can you?” He asks. He was right, and his
confidence started to piss me
off.
I pulled back further
separating us and aching from the touch that I needed, the itch that needed to
be relieved and that I wouldn’t get released
today.
“I’ve got
to get to bed.” I tell him and he stands up straightening himself in
his pants.
“I can come with
you…” He tells me. I try to change my expression on my
face to lead him to believe that it wasn’t what I was wanting which
was the furthest from the truth. Hook me up to the lie detector and watch me
fail horribly. I would surely be
electrocuted.
“We both know
that’s not a good idea” I tell him sternly. I bite my lip
to keep from saying what I really wanted to
say…
“Do you want to know
a secret on how to win on the track
Harper?”
I gulp. Is he really going to
share information with me? “What?” I buy into his giving me
advice.
“Watch me and
observe. I’m good, and I bring my A game every day on the
track.” He winks at me with a grin that could have melted my panties
off me at this very moment.
I currently reside outside of
Austin, Texas. I'm a mother of 2 amazing kiddos and married to my
gorgeous soulmate for almost 20 years. I have a full time job in the medical
field but would rather be spending my time writing! I love to spend my free
time reading, being outside and playing with my family and 4 fur babies. I
started to write at the instinct of "hey maybe I can do
that!" and haven't stopped since. I have enjoyed every step of
the journey. I am blessed to have very supportive friends and family that make
my life worth living!
