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
