Natalie Bourne thinks she has the perfect night planned for her twenty-first birthday. But when her car breaks down and her boyfriend bails on her, she's left stranded in an auto shop dealing with a way too cocky, way too hot mechanic, who seems to be intent on pushing every button she has.
Monroe Hawkins knows he shouldn't be messing with a girl from the uppity private college. Especially when he can tell she sees him as the help. But he's having trouble resisting the redhead with the smart mouth and the killer legs. So when Natalie's night goes from bad to worse, there's no way he's letting her spend her birthday alone. He makes her a deal--he'll take her home but not until the sun comes up.
Ten hours, one motorcycle, and the city of Austin at their fingertips...things are about to take a major detour. And soon, there may be no U-turn in sight.
I love Roni Loren’s Loving on the Edge series. Well, the few I read so far, anyway. So even though Nice Girls Don’t Ride is a standalone novella, I was excited to read it. It’s a super quick read, but has that Loren magic that makes it oh so sexy.
When Natalie’s birthday turns out to be the worst day, Monroe offers to make the rest of the night a fun one. After everything she’s been through, the girl deserves to have a good time.
I loved the chemistry between them from the moment they met. They just have this easy way about them that made it so sweet, which was made even better by their fun teasing and banter. They are a couple I could easily get lost in.
Like I said, this is a novella, but damn, this could have been turned into a fantastic full novel. I would’ve loved to get more of what happened between the end and the epilogue View Spoiler ». Despite the length, it’s still full of wonderful feels.
I just want to say something regarding the beginning of the book: being cautious and verifying who you’re getting in a vehicle with should never be wrote off as being paranoid or ridiculous. Just because they have a company logo or even flash a badge doesn’t automatically mean they’re safe. No matter how hot the guy is.
Nice Girls Don’t Ride was fun, sexy and sweet. Definitely worth the read.
Oh I loved this one so hard! I liked that she was smart at the beginning and making sure she was safe. And I totally would have loved to see this a full length book that showed their adventure instead of skipping over it. Totally with ya.
sound like a good book 🙂 and I like the cover .
I have this one! In fact, I thought of you when I saw it on my list of upcoming books! Now, is this part of the Loving On The Edge series? I’m thinking no, but I keep seeing it mentioned with it. Sigh. I don’t know. But it sounds like exactly my kind of book. I don’t think I have my review date set up for until next week though. But your review definitely makes me want to bump it up.
I wanted to add it to my mountain of books but hey, I’ve already got it ! Not read it yet, though, but its time will come 🙂
I just recently went on a Roni Loren binge because of you Christy, and I regret nothing 😉 Must read this! And I agree with you on verifying someone’s identity before getting in a car – not paranoid at all. Smart is the word I’d use:)
Nothing wrong with a super quick sexy read! Glad this novella was packed full of the good stuff.
Just because they look good doesn’t mean they’re harmless. Hello! Christian Grey anyone?!
LOL! I could totally kick Christian Grey’s ass. 😀
That was a lame spoiler…. I am curious about your little rant about the beginning… What happens?
lol – I’m going to start putting random lame spoilers in my reviews. In the beginning she’s waiting for a tow that never come, then that dude from a different tow company rolls. She calls t confirm he is who he says he is, but then chides herself for being paranoid – that no everyone is out to do bad.
Hmmm… I might need a novella added to the list since I’ve had trouble finding time for books that I want to read. This sounds pretty good!
I’ve never read a book from Roni Loren that I didn’t like! I am so excited for this novella, didn’t know she was releasing another one! I kinda wish it was a full-length novel myself, but I’ll take anything I can get from this author. Thanks for sharing, Christy 😀
Sounds like a quickie but goodie…and YES Never get in a Car with Strangers! *shivers*
Been wanting to read a book by this author. Maybe this one? It’s a shortie, but a goodie!
Out of the books of hers I’ve read, I’d say read Nothing Between Us first.
Haven’t tried this author yet, but the book sounds fun and totally agree with the last point you made.
I’m so happy to hear that this one was a satisfying novella! I try to stay away from novella’s but hearing it was good has me excited 🙂
Sometimes it’s a curse to find a good novella because then you wish it was a full novel instead. Sounds good.
This sounds so good! I’m going to be reading and reviewing it later in the week, so I’m glad that you enjoyed it! I love Roni Loren as well! I’m glad that this was a sweet romance full of chemistry and teasing! Great Review Christy 🙂
I agree with that piece of advice.
Glad you enjoyed this though and I may just have to check this out myself.
