Caught by Clare James

5.0

Wow- this book is a seriously wild ride! (Pardon the mild NASCAR pun- I simply couldn't help myself). But seriously, though, this book is a whole hell of a lot of fun. I'm a sucker for sports romance, and I've never read a NASCAR one before, but the vibrant way that Clare James writes about the track and the racing itself had me hooked form the start. If her descriptions are anything close to reality- the sport is exhilarating and the speed is a turn on.

I loved Viv as the heroine in this novel. She's just a little bit too smart for her own good and slips up right away as she mildly insults the sport of racing right in front of the man of the hour, but she redeems herself right away with a brazen attempt at making him feel more comfortable about hiring her. I loved her self assurance and sass and the way she's the perfect match for cocky and self-assured Jarod. Let's just say that I totally underestimated the benefits of having a closet in your office. Holy heck- that scene is sexy as hell.

And oh, Jarod. He is everything you could possibly ask for in an alpha male hero, and I totally dig the bad boy vibe he gives off throughout the novel. The fact that it is balanced by this sweet, caring side only made him more desirable, and I dare readers to not fall in love with him.

This novel is a wonderful addition to Entangled's awesome Brazen line. It is chock full of sexy moments and heart-racing action. It reads quick and absolutely races towards the finish. (Okay, okay- I'm done).
