S.E.X. Review~ Speed by RJ Scott & V.L. Locey

Speed - Railers Legacy 1

Hard ice. Fast cars. Fierce love. And a race against fate. 

Hockey is as natural as breathing for Noah Gunnarsson. Growing up with two famous hockey stars as his dads, Noah has always aspired to join the Railers to continue the Lyamin-Gunnarsson legacy. With his degree done, it’s time to live that dream, and the first step is being drafted by the team his hall-of-fame dad played for. The second step is to pull on that dusky blue-gray sweater and make his fathers proud. His rookie year is bound to be a season of incredible highs and lows, but one of the biggest highlights is meeting Brody Vance at a fundraiser. Brody is the living epitome of a bad boy hiding his pain behind a devil-may-care attitude. As Noah struggles to keep one eye on the puck and not on Brody, it’s only a matter of time before both loves collide in a chaotic splash of media attention. 

Bad boy racing driver Brody Vance has spent his life chasing speed and glory and is only points away from his first world championship when a devastating crash ends his season. Determined to make a triumphant comeback, Brody is blindsided by a diagnosis that forces him off the track for good. With his world flipped upside down and family and fans questioning why he left, Brody hides his pain by pushing the limits and refusing to let anyone see the cracks. But after a chance meeting with a sweet, sexy hockey player turns into an unforgettable one-night stand, fate keeps putting Noah in his path. With his heart on the line and his body racing against time, Brody must decide if he’s willing to risk it all for love—or if he’ll let fear and pride leave him in the dust.

Speed is a steamy M/M romance with a hockey rookie living his family legacy, a bad-boy racing driver with secrets, media attention that would break even the strongest of men, an unforgettable one-night stand, a love that means risking it all, and a hard-won happily ever after.

As I started to read Speed, the first book in RJ Scott & VL Locey’s new series, I must admit I thought it was going to disappoint me. A huge fan of the two women, I am an avid auto reader.

Brody completely rubbed me the wrong way; narcissistic and selfish, I instantly assumed he took advantage of Noah and the gleam in Noah’s eyes.

Noah on the other hand was likeable and approachable- the little rabbit who grew up with famous fathers and yet still fully grounded.

I can only hold my ire up to the talent of Scott and Locey, who drew me into the storyline and immediately felt something for the characters.

The book was well written and gave readers a further look into the Railers Legacy series. Once Brody got out of his own way friendship and love blossomed between him and Noah.

Wonderful to revisit the loving marriage of Erik and Stan. I laughed through all of the Stan-isms as he still navigated his Russian-English dialogue “eloquently”.

 A great start to a even more delightful series.
