Danger Zone

One minute Lisa Woodrow is a big city prosecutor, and the next she's back home, deep in the fumes of North Carolina racing culture and trying to keep a low profile.

She has no choice. A criminal she helped convict is on the prowl for her, and Wade McClellan, ex-fiance and best-NASCAR-crew-chief-in-the-business, insists his security is tight and she'll be safer with him.

There's no way Lisa will ever go back to being a "sideline cheerleader," but this caring, committed Wade hardly seems to be the same man she left behind. Suddenly, staying beneath the radar in North Carolina doesn't seem to be such a bad idea....

NASCAR driver Justin Murphy is content to go through life flying by the seat of his pants. Why bother with commitment--to racing, his girlfriend, or even living responsibly--when he can just have fun and occasionally finish in the top ten? But when an irate fan injures Justin, nurse Sophia Grosso makes him forget all about family obligations, his former love and even partying hard.... But any thoughts of a happily-ever-after are quickly extinguished by a reminder of the decades-long grudge between the Grossos and Murphys. Justin and Sophia come from families intent on tearing them apart. They whisper things that hurt. Secrets meant to drive a wedge between the lovers...for good.

Can Justin afford to ignore the misdeeds of the past...and marry the enemy's daughter?

Jamie Tanner might appear more lingerie model than grease monkey, but she's actually a highly qualified mechanical engineer. No way is she going to let some struggling, chauvinistic NASCAR driver say her work isn't up to speed. Tanner Performance Motors is the best in the business--and so is she.

But Ryan Pearce can't afford to make nice. He's counting on Jamie to find out why his performance engine keeps failing...and there's no time to lose. Ryan is only a race away from tanking his career. Jamie has never been bested by an engine--or a man. But spending long nights working closely with Ryan, trying not to be distracted by his presence, she wonders if she's met her match....

After spending most of her life buried in books and academia despite her NASCAR roots, scientist Kim Murphy is a complete success. But when she stumbles across an old list--"Things To Do Before I Die"--Kim realizes that she hasn't really lived. Now it's time for her to tackle the frivolous things in life: "Play hooky." "Buy a push-up bra." Next up...find a "jock" to date!

Kim's unusual mix of beauty, braininess and humor seems tailor-made to get under NASCAR car chief Ward Abraham's skin--so when she asks him out, Ward can't refuse. But when he offers to help her out with her "list" (and then some!) Kim is delighted... and terrified that Ward will discover the real reason for her list!

"All I Want for Christmas" by Nancy Warren

And she sure does seem anxious about seeing her childhood friend. Maybe there's more to those old high school stories than she's been willing to share....

Along the way, he discovers that even a man who thought he'd be alone for the rest of his life can fall in love.
