This book was a really nice change of pace from the historicals I've read lately. It had a sexy-sweet feel to it, and the tension between Emilia and Ruben was entertaining, because it was a well-done game of "Who, me? Couldn't be!" My only beef is tha ...more

Audra North answered Angie's question: Loved having the opportunity to read an ARC of In the Fast Lane!
