[The 'Cuda Confessions 03] • Pedal to the Metal

My love life? It’s complicated.

**I walked away from my stepbrothers again,

this time to make my mother happy.

To make my best friend Caroline happy.

And what did those bad boys do?

They put Caroline in the car and came after me.**

When you can’t please everyone

**One more race, one more adrenaline-soaked night

was all they asked, because even Colt and Caine had realized

that one more was all we could risk before someone got hurt.

One more night together, then we’d do the right thing—or at least stop doing the wrong thing.

But fate had other ideas.**

You got to please yourself.

**When life shoved me into the wall, I realized everything I believed in, I’d learned from a racin’ man. If he could talk, I knew he’d say it was time

to put the pedal to the metal, so I went hammer down

and hell bent, for love.

If what I did bothers anyone, they can kiss my red-headed,

NASCAR-man lovin’, college-educated, country girl ass.**
