Mac likes vintage cars, but he likes his mechanic Frankie Sepkaski even more. They are a case of opposites attract, he is from a prominent family, with a successful career as an architect and she is the grease monkey trying to take over her father’s vintage car business who can’t seem to live down her promiscuous past. After buying a new car every month just for the excuse to see her he finally wears her down enough to agree to ...more

Okay so right off the bat I wondered if this was a spin off or in a series, as it just felt like we were missing something regarding the main characters. No, it's not. It's just rushed and we got the info we needed later.
It was very insta love for me... but in general this wasn't bad. But for someone who supposedly didn't know how to "girl" at all, she was exceedingly girly for the majority of it.
The plot regarding the mother wasn't surprising.
But I did like it, so 4 stars. ...more

I liked this one well enough, but I found Frankie's character a bit uneven. She was so girlie girl at some moments, but then totally shut down in others. I enjoyed her interactions with Mac, and the quality of the writing was excellent, but I just found her way too wide-eyed innocent in some moments. She read more like the virginal heroine of a historical romance who was unschooled in the ways of love.
That said, the sex scenes here were good (they tended towards the overt with descriptions, w ...more

A nice short story. I really liked the two main characters - there was some hilarious dialog between them and even though it was a very short story where everything was sped up x100, I could still see that the Frankie and Mac were a really good couple. I sometimes don't get that feeling with 400 pages books.
Great writing! Wish it was a bit longer. One thing that kind of annoyed me was that there was a small mention of Frankie's issues with her mother's lack of presence, which Mac made a note to ...more

This was a fun one. I loved how Mac has been secretly lusting over Frankie for years, to the point that his hobby, which brings into contact with Frankie, is starting to get out of control. Frankie's admission to Mac at dinner of how she got her rep had me laughing, it would have been horrifying for her, but entertaining as hell for the rest of us. I was surprised by Frankie's proposition to Mac and loved it when he turned it around on her. It looked like they both were about to get what they wa
