Dave Close _rgn_ec01 — Posted at http://yummymenandkickasschicks.com/?... Slow Ride is the fifth book in Erin McCarthy’s Fast Track series. A series I fell in love with after reading the very first book. A series that captured the same magic found in book one in the second installment. A series that has still been making me happy but not quite like the first books since the third book. And even though Slow Ride still eludes the deep emotional connection that the first books delivered, it still managed to capture the fun and sexy style that this series is known for. Slow Ride is the story of sports journalist Tuesday Jones. In the prologue, we find out that Tuesday’s father has passed away from cancer and that she is not taking it very well. Who’s to blame her after all? I found Tuesday to be a fun and spunky character in the last book, The Chase and this book has made me like her even more. She has sass and is not afraid to say what is on her mind, but she is somewhat mindful of it so she’s not a total b*tch. She’s funny and smart too. Overall a good character to read. Also in the prologue, we meet Daniel ‘Diesel’ Lange. I liked him immediately. How he treated Tuesday right off the bat was just so… *sigh*. You can’t not like his character. Does he have flaws? Of course. But they were character flaws and not writing flaws. He wasn’t made out to be anything that didn’t fit his personality. He was in a really bad car crash and has had to retire from racing – even though he’s only 30. The accident still haunts him and he really doesn’t want to talk about what happened. He tends to hold things in because that’s how he copes. Basically, he is a man. It is very frustrating to someone who is trying to get to know him and someone who loves him though. Tuesday and Diesel had almost instant chemistry. (I say almost because their first meeting was in a cemetery and for me to say that their red hot chemistry started at that meeting may be a tad inappropriate ;) ) Tuesday needs to be in charge of everything around her, but in the bedroom she tends to prefer the man take over – and Diesel is more than happy to take charge. I suppose he is a Dom, but not in the hardcore BDSM way. He’s gentle yet firm. He knows what he likes and he’s not afraid to tell ask for it. I found Tuesday and Diesel to be compatible in every way. They were a well written couple. What I found odd is how Tuesday turns to liquor when she is feeling stressed or down about her dad. I think what miffs me the most about this is that I don’t understand how Diesel stays with her while she’s dealing with that. He’s concerned and worried and thinks things are not quite right, yet he stays. Yes, I understand, true love and all that stuff. But it all started before he fell in love with her. I know that some people do tackle their grief with alcohol, and I understand that these people shouldn’t be left alone just because they may drink a little too much, but it all just felt off to me. I think the reason I found it so strange in this book is because it felt as though the author was just trying to give Tuesday a fault (other than her ‘regular ones’) that would add tension to the couple. It all just felt forced to me. To be honest with you all, I was worried going into this book. You see, I really enjoyed the last book…right up until the end. I was so upset at what the author decided to throw at the finally happy couple, it ruined the book for me. I was concerned that this incident would play a large part in Slow Ride seeing that Tuesday and the heroine from the last book are best friends. Well, the incident was mentioned…and actually sort of dealt with. There is sadness involved with how it all turned out in the book but I was actually happy with how it all went. I know many readers felt the same way after reading the last book as I did and how it all ends up in this book leaves me to wonder if the author always planned this to be how it would be or did she change the story a bit because of how readers felt. Not something I’m going to ask her, but I am curious… Overall, I enjoyed Slow Ride. It’s a sweet and sexy contemporary read. We do get news and visits from the characters from the past installments which is always nice. And really there was only one issue that rubbed me a little oddly. Tuesday was great. Diesel was great. Together they were great. Just why the drinking?… 3.5 stars

Swapnil Shinde sbsnil0077b3b — MacArthur starts the preface of the book with a statement that many will find controversial, or they will just down right be appalled that Pastor John would believe that there has been a centuries old cover-up in regards to a key word in the Bible. He states, "It wasn't until the spring of 2007, on an all-night flight to London while reading 'Slave of Christ' by Murray J. Harris, that I realized there had been a centuries-long cover-up by English New Testament translators that had obscured a precious, powerful, and clarifying revelation by the Holy Spirit." He does go on to say, "Undoubtedly, the cover-up was not intentional--at least not initially." So, what is that cover-up? It's the translation of the word 'doulos' in the Greek and 'ebed' in the Hebrew. Those words translate to 'slave' but are most often translated as 'servant'. That seems like a small difference to most of us but Pastor John is going to point out how the two words slave/servant or vastly different in what God intended for their usage. MacArthur believes that our English translators started to use the term 'servant' because of the political backlash of the term 'slave' and the problems that it created over the centuries for English speaking countries. England and America fought political battles and actual wars because of 'slavery'. So, to tell the believer in Christ that he was a 'slave' seemed to carry a very derogatory definition. Servant seemed softer and more palatable for the English speaking world to accept. But that is not what the Bible intended. MacArthur does a wonderful job of expressing how God the Father and Jesus the Son intended to use the word. Jesus is the Master and we are His 'slaves'. There is no way around that meaning. Throughout the text MacArthur will share how the people of Jesus time and in the Old Testament would have understood the term Slave. He shares how in the days of the early church roughly 20 percent of all people were slaves, and within the larger cities of Rome, Corinth, Ephesus and Antioch, as many as one-third of the population were legally slaves. So, when Biblical text makes the statement you will be a 'slave' it has a very definite meaning. You are indebted to Christ (He purchased you with His Blood), you are called to be a 'slave' obedient to what the Lord wants you to do, which is the Great Commission and the Great Commandment. This book is filled with examples from the Bible, filled with stories of how the early church members accepted readily that they were 'slaves of Christ', that's what "Christian" meant. My favorite part of the book is MacArthur's discussion of the fact that we were 'slaves to satan/sin' before we knew Christ and that after we came to Christ we became 'slaves to Christ'. You can't serve two masters, you have to choose which master to serve. There is a lot more I could say, but this review is getting a bit long. This book will not have any new teaching if you have always translated the terms as 'slave' and not 'servant'. But if you have taken the 'softer' route of interpretation you will be challenged to look at the terms in a new way and challenged to examine your life in a new way. Are you living as a 'slave of Christ' or not? That is the big question. Enjoy!
