SERIES ROMANCE |4| Marguerite Lemons
REVIEW:
Michelle “Mitch” Coleman is the best mechanic in Dallas, and would be suitors
show up at her garage regularly hoping to become “the one”. Mark Stallion is a
millionaire bad-boy who enjoys fast women and racing motorcycles. Mark takes his
motorcycle to Mitch to have it checked on the recommendation of his brother
prior to his annual biking vacation to South Carolina. He is surprised to
find that the highly respected mechanic is a very attractive female, and is even
more impressed with her knowledge and expertise. Mitch is surprised to discover
that Mark is interested in her. Their attraction is magnetic and the couple
begins explore the possibilities of a relationship unaware that a predator is
out to destroy them by any means necessary.
Mitch is smart, loyal, independent but afraid to allow any man to get close
enough to break her heart. This character’s unconventional career seems to give
her an edginess and cockiness that you don’t normally see. Mark is the ‘love em'
and 'leave ’em type’ until Mitch throws him off his game. Seeing the male
character taking the initial blows to his ego and how he seeks the counsel of
his family and friends to help him rebound was interesting. Both characters are
admittedly confused by the intensity of their feelings and the vulnerability it
creates. However, they eventually learn to trust and communicate with each other
as their relationship evolves.
TAME A WILD STALLION is the second book in the Stallion series. It is a
moderately paced story with an interesting twist, set in and around the
Dallas-Ft. Worth area. The supporting characters are encouraging, while
providing a little comic relief to go along with the mayhem at the race track.
Ms. Mello has written an entertaining page turner. I can’t wait to read the next
brother's story.
