The men of the Twisted Steel custom motorcycle shop are great with their hands . . . and they're not afraid to get dirty.
PJ is exactly the kind of woman Twisted Steel owner Asa Barrons doesn't need. The last thing he wants to do is mix business with pleasure, and PJ has some of the best custom detailing he's ever seen. But the chemistry between them won't be denied, and soon he's introducing her to a whole new world in the bedroom, pushing her far beyond anything she's ever experienced. PJ finds she can't get enough, but how far is too far before he consumes her completely?

I’ve always read nice things about Lauren Dane and thought many times about trying a few of her titles, but never did so until the postman chance knocked on my door. At that point you can’t pass anymore, can you?

I must say, this book wasn’t what I was expecting and I got a bit frustrated at times. The plot is not complicated at all and that bothered me because nothing particularly eventful happened. To me, spicy scenes are never enough to make a story truly engaging and as the read progressed, I was really waiting for a twist of some sort to kick in, but I never got one. The attention is focused on the chemistry between the main characters, they have without a doubt a great connection and I can say I loved their flirting, especially at the beginning, but it was mostly just that. However, I recognize this book offered a different kind of heroine and it presented a character I’m really curious to read more about. Good thing he’s next!

Overall, this book wasn’t what I imagined, but I still don’t regret reading it. If you like light erotic romances, I believe this could be one of those you might like to bring with you to the beach and relax.
