LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!

I took ITG down with me on the loooong drive to the Daytona 500 this past Feb and it was the best thing I could have done! It got me psyched for the race, it made me laugh, made me cry...UNREAL! The character of Sarah is so loveable as the every-girl you could totally see yourself in her. The driver Lance just oooozes the kind of swaggering sexuality that you would imagine your favorite driver to have. Pamela makes it EASY for you to tack the face of your Jeff Gordons, Carl Edwards or Kevin Harvicks out there onto Lance Cooper and that was more than enough for me! The story was so hot that I must admit, at parts I found myself reading so fast I had to go back over it all and soak it in! LOL. Trust me, you will NOT be disappointed by this book in the least!!! I cant WAIT for Pam's next book "On the Edge" to come out!! Thanks Pam for writing these deliciously wonderful books that tantalize the need for NASCAR and some goood lovin! -Chrissy

Fun, Fast, Romantic

Sarah was heading to her new job when her car broke down. She ends up walking to her employer's home instead. Standing in the driveway she turns suddenly and sees a car heading straight for her. Lance is shocked. He has just hit a woman in his driveway. Thinking she is another crazed fan he gets out prepared to call 911 before he gets sued. Sarah insists that she is alright but Lance drives her up to his house to make sure. Sarah ends up hysterically telling Lance all of her troubles because at this point everything is going wrong and she needs to vent. Lance tells Sarah that he is the pool boy but he really is Lance Cooper, the NASCAR driver that she is hopefully going to be working for. Not long after Lance has a doctor check out her minor injuries, his manager shows up and Sarah finds out that Lance is really her boss. She tries to be angry with him for his lies, but it doesn't last long and with some convincing she stays on to do her job as Lances bus driver. Sarah spends the night at Lance's and the next morning she gets to see the enormous and extravagant bus she will be driving. During the tour Lance kisses Sarah and she eagerly kisses him back. Lance knows this is wrong, Sarah is his employee, and Sarah knows she needs to avoid Lance because he is her boss. She doesn't trust men after the mess her ex-boyfriend made of her life. After Sarah leaves to drive the bus down to Daytona, Lance decides to take and early flight down just to be with her, which basically defeats the purpose of her driving the bus down ahead of time but he really wants to see her again. Sarah didn't realize how much she wanted to see Lance again until he walked through the bus door. Sarah and Lance both realize the attraction is mutual but Lance needs to focus solely on his driving and Sarah doesn't think she can compete with Lance's lifestyle. Specifically, the gorgeous women who throw themselves at him constantly. So when Lance attempts to start a relationship, Sarah denies him. But some things can only be put off and before long Lance and Sarah are involved. Although she wants to be with Lance, the demands on his time and the effects of his fame take their toll and Sarah doesn't think she can make it work. Lance loves Sarah but he knows that she has to want it too. She has to put her past behind her before she can really commit to him. If she can do it, Lance intends to be waiting for her with open arms. In The Groove is a blast! It's funny, sexy and romantic. My daddy has always been a huge NASCAR fan so all of the quips and explanations about sponsors, teams and fans had me smiling in remembrance. Lance is sexy and handsome and he's a really sweet guy too. Sarah is the kind of girl you want to see happy. She is such a nice person and her kindness and positive attitude are infectious. In The Groove is a story that I just raced through. It's so entertaining I couldn't put it down. I finished the last page with a satisfied si

From there, the story sucked me in and led me on a ride I didn't want to stop. There just can't be a better book that captures the nuances of the NASCAR lifestyle, combined with a compelling romance, than IN THE GROOVE, by Pamela Britton. I had the honor of reading an ARC of this book and was amazed by the realistic imagery Pam gives of the difficult racing sport, shared with an equally wonderful romance between two brilliantly written characters. This book touched my heart it made me laugh, cry, and finally let out a satisfied sigh when I finished it.
