BLURB.
Avery Sullivan is preparing to become the queen of the drag strip. So, when the one-stop motorsports shop in town is hiring, the thrill seeker doesn’t hesitate to apply.
Knox Lee thinks his boss has made a huge mistake. A beautiful woman with as much knowledge about cars as Avery has would normally be a turn on. But he won’t be blinded by that. Avery used to work for the competition.
As though it’s not already tough enough to succeed in an industry dominated by men, Avery finds herself having to contend with the brooding fabricator. Sure, he might be drop-dead gorgeous and know how to wield a rod, but that doesn’t give him a free pass to question her skills.
Seeing her determination to reach her goal, Knox soon realizes he might have misjudged Avery. The next thing he knows, he’s working side by side with her.
And he’ll do anything to help get her back behind the wheel.

MY REVIEW.
4 Stars from Tiffany!
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sweet, Sexy Romance
As the second book in the Hearts & Horsepower series, I see that A.K. Evans has a "way" these books are going to go, as I felt there were a lot of similarities to Control the Burn. I'm not mentioning it in a bad way, just something I noticed.
We met Knox and Avery in Control the Burn and I felt like they were going to have quite the backstory. Knox came across as a guy with a pretty big chip on his shoulder, although we didn't know why then and Avery coming from a competing performance center was bound to cause a little trouble somehow.
While I liked both Knox and Avery, I felt they were making mountains out of molehills, the same as Kendall in the first book. I'm a huge fan of angst, however these problems felt pretty tame to me in the romance book world. I hoped for more nitty gritty with these two, which is why I continued with the series.
The book is well written and sexy as all get out, it didn't check the angst box for me, but was a good read. I rank Knox and Avery higher than Kendall and Logan, but not by much. Behind the Wheel reads as a standalone with a nice epilogue. Ryker is next and I'm thinking I want to know what his troubled past consists of.

AUTHOR BIO.
A.K. EVANS is a contemporary romance author of over twenty published novels. While she enjoys writing a good romantic suspense novel, Andrea’s favorite books to write have been her extreme sports romances. That might have something to do with the fact that she, along with her husband and two sons, can’t get enough of extreme sports.
Before becoming a writer, Andrea did a brief stint in the insurance and financial services industry and managed her husband’s performance automotive business. That love of extreme sports? She used to drive race cars!
When Andrea isn’t writing, she can be found homeschooling her two sons, doing yoga, snowboarding, reading, or traveling with her family. She and her husband are currently taking road trips throughout the country to visit all 50 states with their boys.
