Collisions: Racing Hearts Series (Racing Hearts book 7 8) by Ruth Gowan (Review)

I’m back with a book that you might say has a Sports background with romance thrown in called Collisions: Racing Hearts Series (Racing Hearts book 7 8) by Ruth Gowan that I received a PDF Copy of from Voracious Readers in exchange for this review. Inside this post are my affiliate links if you click on the links and make a purchase I will make a small percentage from the products you purchase.

Two people with heart break in past relationships meet at a wedding. Sharon gets swept into the water and Paul sees it happening and dives in to rescue her. Sharon has many issues with men after her husband was killed in a car accident with a lover. They have a connection, but both have homes and jobs where they travel in different directions. 

In this story you will find racing, romance, drama, suspense, tragedy and so much more. I would recommend sitting down when reading the book because its going to be a bumpy ride that might get confusing at times. Overall I enjoyed the story because I like watching Car Racing. I can’t wait to read more of the story especially if the Author takes the time to share the backstories like she did in Collisions: Racing Hearts Series (Racing Hearts book 7 8).

As I read the Authors background I was impressed to find out she used to do car rallying and I would like to meet her for her favorite beverage and to talk to her more about the Sport and the part women play in it. If it had been a different world and we lived close together I would like to think we would have been friends sharing romance novels.

About the book:

Unforeseen drama surrounds their first meeting.
A spark of mutual attraction is ignited.
Two people, each haunted by a tragic past.
He is a mouthwateringly handsome motorsport photo-journalist.
She is a stunning redheaded woman, an insecure loner who hates the sport.
She fights her attraction until he vanishes after the Paris-Dakar Rally. Is it’s too late
Romance, thrills, a little darkness, and mystery all happen when they collide.

Meet the Author: Ruth Gowan

Irish author Ruth writes contemporary chic novels with a twist based in Ireland

Her aim is to add romance, suspense, some mystery to her romantic stories. These are based around the interesting fast and sometimes furious pace of Car Rallying in Motor Sport.

One of a very few women to enter and enjoy the sport of car Rallying, back in the day. Ruth drove competitively before she married, enjoying success at the international level. But hates having to clean her collection of silverware trophies. These experiences form the ideas and background of her novels. Which takes you back in time, but not too far, only to the ‘80s. When mobile phones were rare and shortwave radio was the norm to communicate in the Sport.

Ruth divides her time between Portugal and Ireland. Addicted to shoes and she likes TV series like Scandal, Greys Anatomy & Bridgeton, but she also likes side dishes of good detective series like the Line of Duty.

Like most Irish women, she enjoys good food and cooking. Ruth is also is working on a Cook Book featuring the dishes in her books. Most of all, she enjoys happy endings, good romantic suspense and she promises no cliffhangers!

Thank you,
