Review and Top Ten-ish: Fender Bender Blues by Niecey Roy

Title: Fender Bender Blues Author: Niecey Roy Genre: Contemporary Romance / Romantic Comedy Audience: Adult Formats: eBook / print Publisher: The Wild Rose Press Cover By: Debbie Taylor Editor: DJ Hendrickson Pages: 358 ISBN Print: 978-1-61217-741-0 ISBN Digital: 978-1-61217-742-7 ASIN: B00B5L71YQ Date Published: January 24, 2013 Amazon
Her life took a wrong turn. He's driven by success. They didn't count on crashing into love...     Rachel Bennett loved her job until the day she finds herself doubting her choices.  Now she's hunting for a new career, but starting over isn't easy.  Her plan is simple-no distractions until she finds her dream job.  She didn't plan on fate throwing her a curveball in the form of a fender bender with a sexy guy in an expensive suit.   Craig Larsen is a wealthy, successful business owner with a plan of his own: survive his current PR nightmare and stay away from his overly determined ex-girlfriend.  His need for control and personal success is turned upside down when he meets Rach, a sassy redhead who can't drive. Soon they find themselves battling with Rach's grumpy old neighbor, toilet-papering the trees of a high school nemesis, and fighting over the last slice of pizza.  Can two very different people plus one fender bender equal a chance at forever? Just one little nudge, she thought and leaned closer to go in for the kill. He deserved it. She almost giggled at the thought of dumping him on the floor. She sucked in her cheeks to keep from smiling and edged closer...






Top Ten ~~ Hottest Actors Stephen Amell ~~ I'm recently obsessed with Arrow. Hottness much? Tyler Hoechlin ~~ He is the reason I watch Teen Wolf. I admit it. Chris Hemsworth ~~ Can't. Stop. Staring…at him :) Eric Dane ~~ I love a handsome, older man… Daniel Gillies ~~ Classic. Gorgeous. Gentleman Charles Michael Davis ~~ Whoa. Channing Tatum ~~ Yes. Please. Plus, I've loved him since Step Up :) Ian Somerhalder ~~ You had me at BLUE EYES Johnny Depp ~~ Only gets better with age… Leonardo Dicaprio ~~ Another fine wine… Jared Leto ~~ damn it, I know I'm at 11 now, but I can't stop naming… There must be room for Jared!!! Ryan Reynolds ~~ I would never forgive myself if he didn't make my list of hottest actors. Love. Him. You should have asked for Top 20. haha!!!

5 star review:
Niecey Roy has done something not many writers can manage, she captured the voice of a select age group. The 30 Somethings. Rachel (Rach) captures everything she should to be realistic. Her relationships were organic.
Now let me talk about the romance because really that's what it is all about. Swoon-swoony swoon swoon. Some parts I got dizzy I was so giggly. Yes I got strange looks for the seemingly random laughs too. The chemistry was super hot between Craig. Even early on I was feeling the tenderness during their hilarious encounters and bantering.
I can't pinpoint what makes this such an awesome read but all the components are there and amalgamate into something special.
Do yourself a favor grab this book, a few snacks (because you will want food) and make a night of it.

Cover Whore:
The cover looks as fun as the story is!


About Niecey Roy
Niecey Roy knew she wanted to be a writer from a very young age, but her moment of enlightenment came after watching the movie You've Got Mail. It was then she realized her place in life, and happily parked her butt on writing romance. Her dream was to create sexy vixens, hunky, half-naked heroes, and above all, romance; lots and lots of butterflies in the belly, breathless first kisses and happily-ever-afters.
When she's not at her day job where she works as a legal assistant, she can be found at home at a cluttered desk, pounding her tired little fingers away on a keyboard with nothing but black pepper flavored sunflower seeds and Visine as her weapons for mass-romance-novel-creation. When her fingers need a break, you'll find her at a table with friends, drinking a few martinis and showing off a new pair of (sometimes ridiculous) high heels. She's usually the loudest at the table and most often the one snorting with laughter.   
Niecey is the author of Fender Bender Blues, a contemporary romantic comedy published by The Wild Rose Press. Her new novel to be released November 2013, Another Shot At Love, is the first novel in the What's Love??? series.

Spicy Contemporary Romantic Comedy

Her life took a wrong turn. He's driven by success. They didn't count on crashing into love...
Rachel Bennett loved her job until the day she finds herself doubting her choices. Now she's hunting for a new career, but starting over isn't easy. Her plan is simple—no distractions until she finds her dream job. She didn't plan on fate throwing her a curveball in the form of a fender bender with a sexy guy in an expensive suit.
Craig Larsen is a wealthy, successful business owner with a plan of his own: survive his current PR nightmare and stay away from his overly determined ex-girlfriend. His need for control and personal success is turned upside down when he meets Rach, a sassy redhead who can't drive.
Soon they find themselves battling with Rach's grumpy old neighbor, toilet-papering the trees of a high school nemesis, and fighting over the last slice of pizza. Can two very different people plus one fender bender equal a chance at forever?


Dream Cast: I have actually thought of this a long time ago. Yes, I was obsessed with the story for awhile and this would make a great movie.

Rach- Jessica Chastain










Craig - Josh Duhamel












Excerpt:
“Now what?”
“Nothing.” Rach sniffed.
Craig shifted to eye her warily. “Since when do you answer me with single words?”
“Since I decided I’m not talking to you,” she answered with a shrug, crumpling up the white paper wrapper from her sub.
Craig leaned his face in close to her neck and enjoyed the startled jerk of her shoulders. Her eyes opened wide in surprise. His breath shifted a few strands of hair at the nape of her neck as he whispered, “Why, because you want me?”
“You’re incorrigible,” she said, breathless, her cheeks flushed.
She’s enjoying this. The thought pleased him. Rach was on her back beside him now, her eyes closed. He glanced around the park to see if anyone was watching. No one was. He could swoop in for a kiss and no one would catch him. No one would care, he told himself. She won’t mind…
“I can feel you staring.”
Craig smiled down at her. “So what.”
She peeked at him with one green eye. “So stop it.”
“And if I don’t?” Maybe she’d tackle him, push him down on the blanket and…She didn’t. She promptly closed her eye and went back to pretending indifference.
“I’ll hit you, that’s what.”
“Not if I do this, you won’t.”
He’d only meant it to be a short kiss, but the pleasure of touching his lips to hers kept him there longer. Her tongue was velvet soft and warm against his and the slow mating of their mouths quickened his heartbeat even as he told himself, It’s no big deal, just a kiss.
She nipped his bottom lip and sent heat sliding through his body. The woman could kiss.
She whispered soft against his lips, “Now why don’t you admit that it’s you who wants me.”




Review:
This has been the best book I have read so far this year!
Niecey Roy has done something not many writers can manage, she captured the voice of a select age group. The 30 Somethings. I related so much to the heroine. I felt like Niecey spied on my friends and me because she honed in on exactly how we speak. Rachel (Rach) captures everything she should to be realistic. Her relationships were organic. Now let me talk about the romance because really that's what it is all about. Swoon-swoony swoon swoon. Some parts I got dizzy I was so giggly. Yes I got strange looks for the seemingly random laughs too. The chemistry was super hot between Craig. Even early on I was feeling the tenderness during their hilarious encounters and bantering. I can't pinpoint what makes this such an awesome read but all the components are there and amalgamate into something special. Do yourself a favor grab this book, a few snacks (because you will want food) and make a night of it.

Cover Whore:
I think the cover is easy, fun and totally channels the story. The colors are bright and super vibrant.
