How To Win The Dating War

Romance Series

HOW TO WIN THE DATING WAR tells the story of Cutter Thompson, a former stock car driver who earned millions until he crashed while making a dubious move to win a race and was severely injured. He had no second career lined up so now he works on a Barracuda he's been restoring for years... grease, overalls, injured hands and all.

Jessica Wilson walks into Cutter's Florida garage in an attempt to interest him in a publicity stunt for charity. She wins him over despite his initial reluctance. She must have realized that her good looks and snappy dressing had something to do with it but he's brash and chauvinistic; not someone she would consider dating. Her own marriage failed and she runs a dating service to try to arrange happiness for others.

The charity stunt involves various woman interacting with Cutter over a week by online social media and texting, answering questions about what they think makes a good relationship. Followers of the stunt will vote for who gets to date the man posing the questions. Though Cutter has agreed to not date until the stunt is over, the attraction builds until he and Jessica can't keep their hands off each other. Aimee Carson has mixed a few elements which at first appear like oil and water but will likely work for some readers. If you enjoy voting game shows, or online flirting, this might be a good read for you. I wasn't sure if she had something serious to say about the nature of dating these days, or if she may have been trying humor - certainly the end of the contest was funny.
