Book Shelf: Car Crash (Collision #2) by T. Gephart

Kitty was not only beautiful but also incredibly intelligent—except when it came to relationships. It seemed if a guy was a loser, corrupt, deadbeat or unavailable, she was completely and utterly attracted to him. She definitely had a “type,” and all of them had been one bad decision after another.

Dallas had trouble of his own. Finding women wasn’t a problem—he could charm the pants off almost anyone—but most of those “pantless” women ended up being a few bananas short of a fruit basket. Not always the best candidates for his sex-without-strings philosophy. He was one date away from ending up a 60 Minutes special.

While both of them were at the top of their game professionally—she a high-powered executive assistant, and he one of the best tattooists in the city—their personal lives had become a dumpster fire.

No one in their right mind would have suggested they join forces to help each other wade through the crazy. Surely that was a recipe for disaster? But without reason, logic or even sanity on their side, they decided to do it anyway.

It was a hot mess primed for a head-on collision.

Review:

T. Gephart is back with the second novel in her Collision series, Car Crash, another wildly entertaining and enjoyable romance full of humour, passion and tension.

Kitty Donovan is used to people underestimating her. Even though she has built herself a successful position as an assistant to a leading CEO, she’s still not seen for her intelligence and ambition, just her glorious body. A body that has led Kitty into a lot of questionable situations with men. Tattoo artist Dallas is happily living the single life. He has a string of gorgeous women he gets to take to his bed and as long as everyone knows the score, everyone should leave happy, right? Wrong! All his no-strings-attached hook-ups always end the same way; a mess, and after talking to a new work colleague, Dallas has a plan to turn things around. He and Kitty are going to conduct an experiment to see if spending time with someone outside of the bedroom can help heighten what happens within. Yet as Kitty and Dallas find themselves becoming closer than ever will the experiment become something more or are they on a collision for a complete disaster?

Having enjoyed Train Wreck, I was super excited to read it’s companion novel Car Crash, which is as good, if not better than its predecessor! In fact, I think I loved Car Crash even more than the first book! Easily read as a standalone novel or alongside Train Wreck if you want to appreciate the other characters a little bit more, Car Crash follows Kitty and Dallas and unfolds through their dual, back and forth perspective.

Both Kitty and Dallas are highly likable characters and have fantastic chemistry. Theirs is a slow burn romance with plenty of sexual tension and eventual sizzling sex scenes that heat up the pages. I loved that they built their relationship on a friendship even though they had been intimate in the past. Seeing them interact and hang out was sweet and I enjoyed seeing them fall for one another so effortlessly.

T. Gephart brings love to life with this rom-com and I definitely believe Car Crash is worth a read. I was thrilled to see Josh and Eve again from time to time throughout the book and am already intrigued by the new Ink Addiction employee Mason. Here’s hoping there will be a third book featuring him as there’s just so much I want to know more!
