What did I think?

Kristy WOWED with this novel. I don't know about you, but I have been DYING to read Zander's story. He was my favorite of all the characters in the Driven series and by far is my favorite now. The emotional rollercoaster this novel put you on was wild and heart wrenching. It was wonderful and I didn't want it to end. Zander is on his own by his own decisions. He needs to get his life in order and sort things out. Colton has booted his from the racing team until he does so, so really he doesn't have a choice. Then we have Getty. After a terrible relationship that left her scarred, she has to find herself again. Throw Zander into the mix and we have two broken people who need to find out how to heal. I adored this book. Both characters endeared themselves to you while reading. You hurt for them when they hurt and you cheer when life works their way. We visit old friends and make new ones with this read. I don't need to convince you, if you have read this far in the series then you are going to read this novel. Do it.

Synopsis:

The New York Times bestselling Driven series continues with a standalone story about finding love where you least expect it… Behind the wheel, racing champion Zander Donavan is at the top of his game. But after too much excess in his personal life, he’s forced to step away. He needs to accomplish something all on his own—outside of his famous father’s shadow. Getty Caster is running away from the abuse that clouds her past. She thinks she’s found the perfect escape—until she discovers a stranger in the beachside cottage she’d been promised. He’s undeniably sexy, but she’s there to heal. Alone. Before long though, fighting with each other turns into fighting their attraction. And giving into desire sets off a chain reaction that has their pasts colliding. With an unexpected love on the line, can they overcome the fallout to build a future?
