Test Drive

July 4, 2016
Harte (A Major Seduction, A Major Attraction) kicks off her Body Shop Bad Boys series with a smoking-hot match-up between a reformed tough guy and an equally tough bartender. Lara Valley's been hurt enough in her life. Does she really want to open the door to falling in love with mechanic Johnny Devlin, or is it best to keep on dodging the trouble that's been following her for her whole life? Johnny's had his eye on Lara for years, but she keeps deflecting his efforts to date her, no matter how explosive their chemistry is. At first, Lara believes her best course of action is to keep her eyes on the prize: her long-cherished dream of becoming a nurse. But just as she realizes that she's ready to take the risk of falling in love with Johnny, he comes to the conclusion that she may be too good for him. Will low self-esteem rip this romance apart before it even starts? Harte effortlessly draws readers into her eminently relatable, fast-moving story, and invites them to fall in love with two imperfect people simply longing for happiness. This is a sensual roller coaster ride with a sweet payoff. Harte scores again.
