Mackenzie Cox has a lot to prove. Daughter of
a racing legend, she is eager to show the world that she has inherited her
father's talent in the male-dominated sport of professional motorcycle racing.
The last thing Kenzie needs is to be antagonized by her rival team's newest
rider, Hayden Hayes. Plucked from the world of illegal street racing, Hayden
immediately gets under Kenzie's skin. His insinuations that Kenzie is a spoiled
princess who was handed her career fuels her desire to win, and much to her
surprise, Kenzie soon learns she performs better when she's racing against
Hayden.
As Kenzie and Hayden push each other on the
track, the electric energy between them off the track shifts into an
intense—and strictly forbidden—attraction. The only rule between their two
ultra-competitive teams is zero contact. Kenzie always does her best to play by
the rules, but when her team slips into a financial crisis, she has no choice
but to turn to Hayden for help. The tension simmers during their secret,
late-night rendezvous, but Kenzie has too much to lose to give in to her
desires. Especially when she begins to doubt that Hayden has completely left
his street life behind...
Furious Rush was perfectly named. For this story definitely took me on
one crazy race of numerous emotions. I felt those crazy butterflies
that Ms. Stephen's is a master at giving her readers when they start
falling for her bad boy heroes. I felt quite a bit of irritation again
for another heroine who could not make up her mind. Kenzie was very
immature. She wavered constantly and wasn't very honest. The
suspenseful action kept me invested and had my pulse jumping. The
sexual tension was so thick I felt the pages would implode a time or
two. Then as I fell for Hayden I felt tingles and excitement . I will
say that the angst is absolutely on the high side and I wanted to scream
so often. Secrets hurt and this book was completely full of secrets.
The whole Felicia aspect is the one thing that completely made me doubt
this romance and kept me from loving it. The cliffy wasn't horrible but
if Felicia causes issues between this couple I won't be able to deal
with it. Hayden has to prove early on that Kenzie is his #1 and Felicia
has nothing to do with it. Right now there is massive doubt. 4 stars
for keeping me on my toes .
