Fully Engaged

By Abby Gaines

Motor Media Group president Sandra Jacobs is desperate to find new sponsorship for scandal-plagued driver Will Branch. If she fails, her PR firm goes bankrupt--a frightening first step down the same road her invalid father is traveling now. Surprisingly, Will's team owner Gideon Taney decides to oversee the sponsorship bid personally. Handsome, accomplished and notoriously aloof, he raises plenty of eyebrows on the circuit with his sudden renewed interest in the team. Working long hours together, Sandra and Gideon struggle to keep each other at arm's length--they want the same thing for the team, but for very different reasons. Just how much will each one risk to secure a sponsor...and how much will they conceal?

fine NASCAR romance

Public Relations Specialist Sandra Jacobs struggles to satisfy her unimpressable client, Gideon Taney, owner of Taney Motorsports as she needs this job, but so far nothing has worked. When his NASCAR driver Will Branch fails to arrive at Olivia Winton Show where he was to be the guest of honor, three cups of coffee does not abate the trepidations she feels when Taney arrives. Someone must take the fall for this embarrassing debacle on the top breakfast morning TV show so Taney fires Jacobs. Sandra knows how much she needs this client to pay for her father's Alzheimer's medical care so she refuses to slink away. Besides she feels strongly she did everything right as she had worked hard to obtain this coup; it was not her fault that Will pulled his DNF (did not finish). As she struggles to stay afloat, bossy Gideon is impressed with her fortitude, which soon turns to love. Readers will be FULLY ENGAGED with this fine NASCAR romance due to the strong relationships between the lead couple and within her family. The actual strength of the tale is the contrast between the seriousness of her father's mental fading away vs. the humor of the relationship between the Motor Medias Group member and her client. Abby Gaines provides a wonderful mostly off track romance. Harriet Klausner
