From acclaimed author Katie McGarry comes an explosive new tale of a good girl with a reckless streak, a street-smart guy with nothing to lose, and a romance forged in the fast lane
The girl with straight As, designer clothes and the perfect life-that's who people expect Rachel Young to be. So the private-school junior keeps secrets from her wealthy parents and overbearing brothers...and she's just added two more to the list. One involves racing strangers down dark country roads in her Mustang GT. The other? Seventeen-year-old Isaiah Walker-a guy she has no business even talking to. But when the foster kid with the tattoos and intense gray eyes comes to her rescue, she can't get him out of her mind.
Isaiah has secrets, too. About where he lives, and how he really feels about Rachel. The last thing he needs is to get tangled up with a rich girl who wants to slum it on the south side for kicks-no matter how angelic she might look.
But when their shared love of street racing puts both their lives in jeopardy, they have six weeks to come up with a way out. Six weeks to discover just how far they'll go to save each other.
Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles is one of my all time favourite contemporaries and I love anything similar to it. I got into Pushing the Limits thinking it's another good guy/bad boy type read that I enjoy but I came out of it really loving the book for so much more.
Isaiah has been one of my favourite characters since book one, so I'm really excited to read about him and see him get his happy ending (fingers crossed). I wasn't very happy with the way he was treated in Dare You To, but I have high hopes for this one! Can't wait.
Haven't read the other books in this series, but this one sounds really good!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great series, I definitly recommend it.

I can't wait to read this one as well.
ReplyDeleteA nice pick - Sharon – Obsession with Books
Dare You To is one of my next reads because I have Crash into You and everyone keeps raving about it! I really hope I like it, and I did love Isaiah in Pushing Limits, so I'm curious to see why you think he wasn't treated well. Was he just not in it a lot?
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for this one too! I can't wait to read about Isaiah finally getting his HEA :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pick! Thanks for stopping by :)
Yessss so with you on this one! I loved Dare You To even more than Pushing the Limits which takes my excitement for Crash Into You sky high. Plus Isaiah is a really interesting character. Dare You To really made me love Beth so I'm excited to find out more about him too. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteAwesome pick!! I can't wait for this one either :)
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I am definitely waiting on this book! I devoured the others and I need this book in my hands right now!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. :)
