On the Track - Book Two

Review

I didn’t think anyone could be more cocky than Axel (book one), but wow, Royal has taken obnoxious to a whole new level! His agent is a saint for not running him over with her car. LOL

He is a true master at keeping people at arm's length through his antics and attitude. And now he’s going to be followed around by the one man who has made it his job to hate on him. All in an attempt to make him more likeable.

Soren has made a career of calling out toxic masculinity and bad behaviour in sports, and Royal has definitely been a focal point of it.

It’s a match made in disaster.

But oh man, Royal is really quite wonderful once those walls come crashing down, and then he’ll make you swoon! And Soren is so patient and kind, even though he could absolutely have walked away a number of times. But with bumper car dates, cute animals, and some difficult truths revealed, you will swoon for them both.

Synopsis

Royal

I’m the hotshot—both on and off the track. I know how to work the crowd and show off. And I’m good at it.

I’ve had to become very effective at putting on a show.

But my agent is not a fan of my over-the-top antics. So she did something I still can’t believe . . .

She called in the press—the media. Specifically, the reporter who hates everything I stand for. And now, he’s tasked with showing the world a different side of me.

Yeah . . . Good luck with that.

Soren

I’m a sports reporter, but I’m so much more than that.

My social media following has allowed me to be more. To do more. To try and help my corner of the world do better and be better.

I believe in accountability. I believe in integrity. And that sports professionals are obligated to be a moral compass to their fans.

I’m loud and outspoken about that point. Maybe more so with Royal Dutton—the loudmouth, crude racer with absolutely no morals.

And now, I’m supposed to find the redeeming side of him. I took this job to find something deeper within him. The good guy inside.

Yeah . . . This is going to be impossible.
