Sexy C.J. Davis has been a grease monkey all her life--and she's just fine with that. If a man can't change a set of spark plugs in his sleep, C.J. just isn't interested. Her job keeps her on the road a lot--and when C.J. comes home, she's just too busy playing the field to settle down with just one man. Then C.J. finally meets her match in hunky Ethan Tanner. Owner of a chain of auto repair shops, Ethan revs C.J.'s engines harder than any man she's ever met. So why can't she just take the plunge with a man who just might be the one?
After Ethan lost his wife and child in an accident, he was sure he could never love again. But when he meets C.J., Ethan finally realizes that it's time to move forward with his life.
C.J. is feisty and totally irresistible. Every time they meet, the temperature in the room goes through the roof! Yet whenever Ethan tries to get close, C.J. pushes him away. But Ethan knows C.J. is worth fighting for. |
 RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:
WANNA GET TO KNOW YA is a sexy, engaging story featuring an atypical heroine. C.J. is a trucker and knows her stuff under the hood of a car. Meeting Ethan when they vie for a classic Barracuda, C.J. later is stunned when she realizes she's chosen his auto repair shop to do the restoration work. The duo sizzle with sexual chemistry every time they appear together in this story. I liked how the author gave the characters a very real feel, since both the heroine and the hero have had to deal with a great trial or tragedy in their past. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and recommend it, especially if you like a romance a bit away from the norm.
