Order from Amazon
Now available in ebook from eHarlequin
Read an Excerpt
NASCAR spotter Steve Grosso and veterinarian Heidi Kramer are…well, perfect together. But Heidi wants something she can't have with Steve—stability. Joining Steve on the NASCAR circuit will mean abandoning her career and the chance to open her own clinic. So Heidi faces a decision with no easy answers.…
But Steve makes his living by seeing spaces and maneuvering room where others see none. If he works with his family—who have been part of the NASCAR lifestyle for generations—maybe he can convince Heidi that home isn't one static place on the map. Because sometimes the only way to get ahead is to gamble—and risk everything for that one perfect opportunity.…
"Slingshot Moves (4), by Anna Schmidt, is a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the racing world and the heroine and hero's struggle to find a happy lifestyle."
