"
Almost Famous" [NASCAR Series, Book 2] by
Gina Wilkins
My Book Summary : Jake is taking a brake from his racing career, the media, and anything else that goes along with it ... and tries to recuperate from a boating accident in cabin Arkansas. The only problem is after living a life in the spotlight being alone now is getting kind of boring, so when he meets his cute next door neighbor, Stacy, he hopes that he might have someone to hang out with. But Stacy doesn't wants alone time herself as she is staying at her brother's cabin to get away from the recent media about an incident at a local courthouse that she was involved in, and she hates that people know about her now before they even are introduced to her. But then fate steps in when Stacy suddenly needs assistance in getting her foot trapped out of a whole in the woods, and Jake helps out. While they get to talking they both realize that neither of them really know who each other is, since Stacy's story was a little more of a state story instead of national and Jake finds that she doesn't pay attention to NASCAR racing, which both appeal to them so they both go out of their way to not really tell specifics about themselves to each other.
However, after a week of hanging out, they get closer becoming something more then just friends, then their secrets become revealed. Neither is upset with the other, but with one hating anything to do with the media and the other living a life in the spot light .... how can they make it work?
My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. *sigh* This one was almost heading into 'Disappointmentville' but it had some good parts to keep that from happening. However, Stacy was borderline annoying when it came to making a decisions about their relationship. So you may not like this book as much as I did if you can't stand indecisive people. Jake was a great character though!
