Jackrabbit
He drives it like he stole it - because he did.
Colt Rourke is a street racer with a criminal record, a dead brother's ghost in the passenger seat, and one shot at going pro. All he has to do is survive six months of training with Beauregard Moore — a retired NASCAR legend who hasn't touched a steering wheel in twelve years and has zero interest in coaching a reckless kid with a death wish.
Beau knows better than to get involved. Colt is impulsive, mouthy, and exactly the kind of chaos that got the last person Beau loved killed. But the kid can drive — raw and reckless and fearless in a way that makes Beau's hands itch for the pit box again. What neither of them plans for is the pull. The way Colt goes quiet when Beau's voice drops. The way Beau can't stop reaching for a boy he has no business wanting. The way the power between them shifts from professional to something darker, hotter, and infinitely more dangerous.
With a career-making tryout on the line and a past that won't stay buried, Colt and Beau are on a collision course — and in racing, the crash is never the part that kills you. It's the aftermath.
Jackrabbit is Book 1 of the Redline Series. It features an age-gap MM romance, enemies-to-lovers tension, a D/s dynamic that builds from the ground up, and enough heat to melt asphalt.

This slow-burn story seamlessly blended age gap with actual NASCAR motorsports romance, and it really opened my eyes!
A young rookie racing prodigy, Colt, reaches out to retired NASCAR legend Beau to mentor him into the big leagues—who just so happens to be the exact hero Colt's been lowkey swooning over since he was thirteen. So like any good underdog story, the young prodigy enters his brutal training arc under his new coach, diving headfirst into high-stakes race days. The action scenes are top-tier—delivering genuine sportsmanship with zero gimmicks.
The age gap in this book is elite! Young Colt is chaotic, loud, fueled by raw energy and an unhinged drive to win. Older Beau, dealing with a career-ending injury, is closed-off and conflict-averse, yet provides the most grounded support system. Bound by shared grief and a passion for racing, they don't just understand each other—they make each other whole.
I've complained about predatory daddy-vibes age gaps before, but Beau is the absolute gold standard for how to do it right. Even with actual power over Colt, he shies away from intimacy, second-guesses himself, and would literally walk away before ruining Colt's future. Meanwhile, Colt grinds on pure merit—making their dynamic a true equal partnership and professional alliance, zero sugar daddy nonsense.
The writing was smooth with genuinely funny moments scattered throughout, so I devoured it in one sitting! But real talk, it still felt a little long. The tension was great and they had some truly sweet moments, but for a book this length, the smut-to-plot ratio was tragically low for my taste.
Also, heads up for a tiny bit of OM drama: when Beau keeps pushing him away, Colt has a quick, off-page one-night stand out of sheer frustration. It's super brief with zero major drama—completely fine by my standards, but check tags if that's an absolute dealbreaker for you.
Book one ended on a HFN, so I'm diving into book two Burnout literally right now. For some reason Goodreads messed up the metadata and didn't group it under the same author profile, but it's officially out—zero waiting required!

Just wanting Beau to help coach him so he can xhase his dream of driving professionally not street racing.. obviously at first Beau is like no. Hahah but Colt if anything is persistent.

Who knew racing could be so fun? Not me.
Such a good slow burn 🔥.
I love them, your honor. 🫡
Can’t wait for Burnout at the end of the month.

The perfect slow burn! 😮💨 No notes.
This book was fun and endearing while also being exciting and hot af. It just worked from start to finish. I was captivated by page one and racing (pun intended) to that first kiss.
Colt an underground street racer and overnight internet sensation gets himself an ankle monitor and a career opportunity all in one night. Only to make his dreams happen he needs a coach.
Beau who goes by Merc now is a retired racing icon hiding from his past. This grumpy mechanic never stood a chance against Colt's sunshine chaos. Both Colt and Beau are harboring grief that simultaneously pulls them together and pushes them apart.
It's forbidden, they both know they can't. Between the age gap, Beau being Colts boss and coach, there's many reasons to say no, but let's be honest none of those reasons hold a flame to the fire of desire and want that burns between them.
When they finally give in, holy fuuuuuuuuuuuck, worth every page of waiting. 😮💨🥵 Beau is a total Daddy and I'm so here for it. Cannot wait for book 2 because I need more of them IMMEDIATELY!

Grumpy/sunshine, fast cars and a cat! Slow burn was really slow but the tension was good and I enjoyed reading about Colt, he felt real and I empathized with his struggles.
August 9, 2026
Enjoyed this overall but what the heck was that ending about - I blinked and it was all resolved with very little effort and no details. Very weird. At the start I didn’t care for Colt and his flirty immaturity. Then they finally get together and Colt was committed and then Beau became unbearable with all his woe is me my best friend died and I can’t get past it crap. Them blink! It’s over and everything is great. Ugh. Too long a book to have such a disappointing ending.

Review of advance copy received from the author.
Okay… where do I even start? 🙈🤭🥹
Firstly, gays being represented as great drivers? We love to see it. A win for the community. 🚗✨
To say this book grabbed me by the back of the neck and dragged me headfirst into its delightfully slutty little world from page one would be an understatement.
Did I expect it to be sexy? Of course. I’d had a little warning. But was I prepared for it? Absolutely not.
The slow burn? Exquisite. The dialogue? Incredible. I’ve highlighted so many little quotes throughout this book because I genuinely couldn’t help myself. I became completely obsessed with Beau and Colt’s chemistry.
But what made this story so special wasn’t just the tension. Both characters carry their own trauma, fears, and triggers, and watching them slowly become safe places for one another was honestly such a beautiful thing to read. Their commitment to showing up for each other, learning each other’s boundaries, and finding comfort in one another made every moment feel so earned.
When I tell you I was completely sat and emotionally locked in from the very beginning, I mean it. These boys lived in my head long after I put the book down.
And we simply have to mention Toast the cat. An icon. No notes. 🐈
The supporting cast is just as wonderfully written, creating that warm sense of chosen family and community that perfectly complements Beau and Colt’s individual healing journeys as they slowly find their way toward healing together.
They’re so, so good for each other, and I already cannot wait to get my hands on book two.
Cole Beckett has absolutely won me over with Jackrabbit, and I’ll be thinking about these characters for a long time yet. ❤️🩹

I found this book on Instagram and as soon as I was able to start it I couldn't put it down. Only critique would be that the beginning has some minor grammar mistakes and some of the chapters feel like they could have been combined. But about half way through it feels like the author really found their voice for this story and it starts to blend very well.
Beau and Colt's relationship is so heartwarming and cute. I can't wait to see where it goes and how their relationship will be tested again. I'm so glad everything worked out in the end and Beau was able to go with Colt. I panicking a little towards the end thinking I was going to have to wait for the next book for them to get together and be happy lol

I found this book via an Instagram Reel, instantly fell in love with the characters and their vibe, clicked over to Cole's page, and immediately applied for an ARC. Little did I know, that Reels rabbit hole would lead me to one of my favorite reads of 2026 so far.
Beau and Colt grabbed me from the get-go - Beau with his broody stoicism, and Colt with his bratty neuroticism. They had me belly laughing through the majority of the book and even tearing up a few times. The two of them each came with a lot of baggage (check the trigger warnings), but were able to help each other rediscover the best parts of themselves. And the chemistry!! Whew.
I didn't initially realize book was book one of a 4-part series, so after the halfway mark I was mentally screaming at them to hurry it up because I was afraid I was running out of time to see a resolution. However, knowing I've got THREE MORE BOOKS (!!) to look forward to, I now am perfectly happy with the way things progressed and glad we had so much time to get to know the characters and their relationships with each other, as well as the side characters (ily, Joyce).
This book is definitely a must-read for MM romance fans, but I would also recommend it to anyone that enjoys grumpy/sunshine dynamics, being called a good boy, cute kitty sidekicks, or spice that makes you blush a little bit. You definitely don't have to know anything about racing or NASCAR (I certainly didn't) to enjoy the story.
I can't wait for the next book in this series already!
Thank you SO much to Cole for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Review of advance copy received from Author
So of course I found this book on Instagram and was sold on the premise immediately, The art, the vibes of the videos, etc. all had me hooked from the moment I walked in. Over all, it's a solid, fun read that did make me cry on a couple of occasions and I am already recommending it to my friend and she is stoked.
PROS:
• Colt and Beau as main characters. I loved them. They had me in a choke hold and I'm one that puts a lot of value on character driven writing and being able to fall in love with them so easily made reading this a blast.
• Character banter felt realistic. I think it's something that a lot of people feel the need to force but it landed for me. I snorted a few times.
• The inner conflict felt real.
• Without spoiling too much but still censoring, I think the was a very welcome surprise.
• The SPICE was so good and so worth the wait and frustration. I wish we got to see some of Beau's fantasies come to fruition (maybe in the next one please Cole) but it feels so promising. I'm one that believes that smut in a novel can show a lot more about a character than people give it credit for and Jackrabbit is a great example of that.
The CONS list is so short and really it's just non-issues but I do think they should be noted.
• Some of the formatting- namely at the beginning- threw me off but I think it was the author trying to adjust and find voice. Which isn't horrible, it just took some getting use to and figuring out what certain formatting meant where.
• On this note, it did mean that the flashbacks felt a little bit abrupt but again, once you get use to it, you can figure it out.
Over all? One of my new favorites. I can't wait to read the next one!!!

I stumbled upon this book over instagram reels, and boy am I glad I did.
I had so much fun reading this. The two protagonists are amazing in their own ways, and I was captured by the get-go. I adore Colt, his endless energy and the speed at which he goes through everything, as well as the moments of maturity and vulnerability that betray a different life experience underneath. I love me a character who hides pain behind flirting and bravado. Beau's stoic, deliberate personality is a refreshing contrast to that. I absolutely loved the small moments of Beau's traumatic experience and how he still suffers from it. It's not big or flashy, but it's there, and it's an important part of Beau that shapes how he reacts to the world and treats people. I also love me a character who hides pain behind grumpiness and not letting people close. Put them together? Amazing. I liked the way their relationship progressed, and how it didn't feel linear. It seemed like one step forward, one step back at times, but never stagnated.
It's a slow burn, but the book still felt fast-paced which is fitting. I don't know much about racing, however, the book explains the things well enough and puts context clues in so you can figure out how things work quite easily without prior knowledge.
What I immensely enjoyed was that the miscommunication trope that seems to be everywhere at this point was kept at a minimum, especially towards the end of the book. Both Beau and Colt tell each other what their issues are, and there's no need for some prolonged will-they-won't-they stuff. I understand how some people might not like how quickly some things get resolved, but personally, it was just right for me.
The spice is spicing, and I liked that the scenes were placed in a way that felt thought through. They didn't come out of nowhere and made sense when they happened. And they were hot, but that goes without saying.
The appearances of Toast the cat were perfect, no notes. Also, there's a character that I really liked with whom I share a name, so that's a bonus point in my book.
There are some formatting issues (like two instances of a paragraph in the middle of a sentence, a double blank space between words once or twice), but to me, those things are purely cosmetic and did not take away from the story.
All in all, this book was amazing, and I can't wait to see what's coming next in the series!

Review of advance copy received from Autorin bzw. Autor
Damn! What a debut! I can't even put in words how fucking much this one broke me. And put me back together. It is hands down one of the best sports romances I've ever read. If not the best!
I cried, I laughed (the snorting ugly laugh you can't control) and I kept giggling and kicking my feet up in the air - it truly made me feel every bandwidth of emotion.
It's a perfectly written underdog chasing his dreams and his one shot of glory story. You get to cheer and tremble right alongside Colt and Beau for every challenge and twist they have to face. Colt's a cheeky and stubborn little submissive shit and Beau wrestles with old wounds that have been festering for far too long. But both have much more depth and hurt hidden behind tall walls than they're ready to show at first.
And the romance is beautifully intertwined with the overall plot and racing story. Neither is too much or not enough. It's simply perfectly balanced and paced, yet still sizzling hot.
The emotions just drag you right into the story. The author's writing style gives you no choice but to feel everything right alongside the characters. Every bit of elation at a well-deserved and hard fought victory and every bit of despair or yearning. I'm writing this at 1am with work the next day - I simply couldn't put it down!
The way those two fit together and healed each other.... I'm in love. I can't wait for the series to continue!
This one will definitely stay with me for a long time. It would make such a good movie too - it gives me the same feeling as Real Steel, Rocky V or F1 invoked. So if you like these vibes and enjoy a good and sizzling hot m/m romance - don't miss out on this story!
And of course, an honourable mention for Toast - the fiercest cat alive. Not scared of anything at all. Filthy lies if anyone says anything else.

4⭐️ 2.5🌶️ 4🥵 0.5😭 1.5🤣
I really enjoyed this! 🥹❤️
First of all… THIS BOOK WAS HOT. 🥵🥵🥵 The slow burn was insanely hot and the tension between Colt and Beau had me suffering in the best way. 😂 The first kiss??? One for the records. The amount of sizzling that was happening throughout this book before they finally kissed, and then when it finally happened… phenomenal. 🔥
And Daddy Beau 🥵🥵🥵 I absolutely loved seeing how Colt could be all confident and badass one minute and then completely turn into a puddle in Beau’s hands. 🤭😂 Their dynamic was just SO good.
But honestly, the characters were probably my favourite part of the whole book. I loved Colt, obviously 🥹, but I also loved the whole found family. Everyone at the garage and the restaurant was so lovable, but Joyce especially stole my heart. ❤️ And now I’m really excited to get to know more of the Liberty crew because every single one of them seems so cool and interesting and I NEED to know more!
And then there’s Toast the cat. 🐈😂 Absolutely amazing. The fact that he was so obsessed with Colt and basically acted like Beau’s inner voice half the time?? I loved him. Honestly, 10/10 cat. No notes.
I also LOVED how unapologetically queer this book is. 🏳️🌈 It’s just queer people being queer, living their lives, falling in love, being chaotic and finding their people, and I really appreciated that. ❤️
You can definitely tell this is a debut in places, but honestly, I didn’t mind because I was having such a good time reading it. I really enjoyed the story, loved the characters and can definitely see the potential for the rest of the series.
And now I’m emotionally attached to these people, so obviously I’m going to need more. 😂🥹
I can’t wait for the next book! 👀❤️
I really enjoyed this! 🥹❤️
First of all… THIS BOOK WAS HOT. 🥵🥵🥵 The slow burn was insanely hot and the tension between Colt and Beau had me suffering in the best way. 😂 The first kiss??? One for the records.

Review of advance copy received from Author
In one sentence I enjoyed reading this book and would recommend.
The atmosphere of this book reminded me of the times I was watching Herbie: Fully Loaded and Turbo. Part of it was due to behaviour of the characters at some situations (but that might be just cultural diference), but I don't see it as a bad thing - after all it's a fiction so some "like a movie", a little unrealistic, behaviour is in place. Also Cat (for the real name of this cutie you need to read the book) was giving animal sidekick energy and I loved it. On the other hand trauma of the main characters was written very realistic.
Where I had a problem was pacing. The part (around 100-150 pages) where Colt was trying to fully seduce Beau and Beau resisting him was a little bit long and repetitive. But I understand why it was there and why it was so long given the trauma of Beau. It's not big problem, but I feel like I should mention it, that there is part with slower pacing.
The Colt and Beau dynamic is great, they work together and learning from each other. There was balance between spicy and sweet and I enjoy their intimate interactions.
I don't feel qualified enough to comment on the racing part of the story, but for uneducated person it sounded realistic enough to get interested.
So if you like age difference M/M romance books with a little bit of the trauma, I would recommend this book to you. If you need more information about tropes, I certainly recommend visit author's Instagram.
In the end I would like thank the author for sending me ARC, thank you very much! I'm also hooked for the second book and more of Colt, Beau and Cat.

Shit! - This was good!!
When I say I ‘hate’ reading books. I mean ‘HATE’ because so many authors don’t have well written story, plot, characters, or some combination of that and so much of the words are just words without real energy, emotion, or meaning, you know? Fillers. Like when you were forced to write that report in school that needed 1000 words. Welp…NOT THIS BOOK!!! Oh. My. God. Am I glad this book landed in my algorithms because for almost 2 years I’d given up on reading with my eyes and turned to audio books instead so that the narrators could give the story life (especially in duet narration - hint to the author puh-lease make this in a duet narration some day) AND so I can speed the time …..again, to pass those fillers. Well let me tell you, Cole Beckett has made me a believer in the written word again!! God and Beau and Colt?!?!? I love them. I am in love with them. Their dynamic is what we all want and their backstories were so rich. Nothing was repetitive. I felt like these were real people I would know and want to know. I felt the ache when they ached and I felt the joy and bliss when they did. I love a story with meat on the bones where the spice was fun and amazing and also served to deepen their connection and relationship. Gah! So good. I CANNOT WAIT for book #2. And at the same time I’m dreading it because I never want to say goodbye to these characters. Oh but Cole Beckett, I will be eagerly anticipating all that you’ll share with us. If it’s anything like Jackrabbit, it will be tremendous!! Thank you for sharing your gifts and for sharing this story. I’m wrecked in a good way. See you in September for book #2!!

this is going to be the most unhinged review I post, because I am so insanely unhinged about this book. My good friend got an ARC of it, and was insufferable because she couldn't share anything but kept saying - "oh... my god... you're going to love this."
SHE WAS NOT WRONG.
I have lost my SHIT multiple times reading this book. I cannot ... okay I need to physically calm down but:
ONE - COLE. Don't believe it's your first ever book. Sorry, don't buy it, its just too well crafted.
TWO - Is there slow burn tagged anywhere on this thing? There needs to be. I HATE slow burn but jesus take the wheel, I was chewing on the effing book (metaphorically) as I worked through it because I needed these guys to KISS.
I dunno, there were numbers - pretend I'm sticking to the list, but also as an ex-NASCAR obsessed, once ASE certified girly and an MM expert (cause I read too much), I also really love the accuracy of what we got in a way that continued to be really really REALLY entertaining. Colt really IS chaos embodied, Beau is exactly what we ALL need, and the cat ... well... I'm not gonna spoil how amazing that guy is.
Please, please read this book. Drop all the things you're doing and get it. I've never seen an age gap, power imbalance, sports, slow burn in the gosh darn desert drive me so insane. The craft with which this book has been written cannot be overstated. I know I'm repeating myself here, but it's because it's true.
I am fortunate enough to be on the ARC list for the sequel and jfc, it's even better???
So! Go read this, hurry! Burnout is out soon. You've got enough time to be ready!!!

I initially found Jackrabbit just scrolling through Instagram, and I have to give major kudos to whoever did the publicity campaign and illustrations because the artwork of Colt and Beau immediately got me interested.
Jackrabbit follows Colt, a chaotic street racer out on parole, turns to Beau, a retired racing legend turned auto-shop owner, to train him to become professional. Along the way, of course, our love birds fall for each other.
Overall, I really enjoyed this! It’s definitely a slow burn and definitely high spice, but you have to earn your way to it. The really good spice doesn’t come until around 75% of the way through, which I actually appreciated because by then, I was invested in Beau and Colt and could really see why these two belonged together.
I also loved the found-family aspect of the book. The crew at the shop, Joyce, and especially Toast the cat gave the story so much heart. Honestly, Toast is basically a main character, and I desperately hope he’s just as big a part of the second book.
My biggest personal nitpick was the extremely short chapters. I’m just not much of a short-chapter reader, so that took some getting used to, but ultimately, it didn’t take away from how much I enjoyed the story.
Beau and Colt make a great couple. The racing storyline kept me interested, and this was a really good start to their trilogy. I’m definitely keeping book two on my radar when it comes out in September. I’m excited to see where Colt, Beau, and, most importantly, Toast go from here!

Debut title from Cole Beckett, and it was a fun ride!
Colt is a temporarily down-on-his-luck, happy-go-lucky street racer who just got his big break into professional racing after his high speed chase (and subsequent arrest) goes viral. Beau is a former professional driver who is running a garage and hiding in his retirement after a traumatic injury and the death of his best friend. When Colt needs a racing coach, he ends up on Beau's doorstep willing to do whatever it takes to get his expertise.
Colt's persistence (and his pretty boy charm) eventually win Beau over, as his coach and more.
This was medium-slow-ish burn romance - the relationship between Colt and Beau develops realistically as you learn more about each of them. And there's just enough flirting and tension to keep you reading in the meantime. Plus there's the lovable cat!!!
I enjoyed this romance, but I did have to tough out a little bit at the start. It's not enemies-to-lovers really, but Beau is pretty disrespectful to Colt in the beginning, in a way that I didn't really care for. The dynamic shifts pretty quickly and I'm glad I stuck it out, but it might not be for everyone.
This is the first title in a series and it leaves you wanting more, but not a true cliffhanger thank goodness. Also I wanna live in this world where NASCAR racing way more diverse.

What a sexy, fun, immersive m/m romance novel. I read Jackrabbit almost non-stop over the course of a day and a half. The contrast between the two main characters is absolutely captivating (and hot). Their spring-and-fall dynamic creates great tension, and the D/s elements only amplify their chemistry. The first kiss had me on the edge of my seat - I reread it three times because the buildup was so satisfying. Every sex scene is HOT, and I found myself rereading them more than once. I was also pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful exploration of grief. It adds emotional depth to the story and enriches both main characters' arcs.
I also never expected to get so into a universe centered around NASCAR, but this book completely did it for me. Part of what makes it so compelling is how the author turns the traditionally hypermasculine NASCAR world on its head by centering queer characters. The author's clearly thorough research and compelling writing also make the racing feel incredibly immersive- you can practically feel the speed, intensity, and dedication behind Colt's training and racing.
I highly recommend this book and can't wait to dive into the next one in the series!

I……I can’t 🥰🥰
Colt and Beau had me HOOKED from the get go.
Jackrabbit is the story of a Colton going from Street Racer being arrested to Rookies NASCAR driver and catching his big break.
What I was not expecting was the raw emotion and trauma that both MMCs experienced prior to meeting. Neither worse than the other, but emotional nonetheless.
The strength that the two get from each other is INSANE! The start of their healing journey is beautiful!
Their relationship though?! Omg! The spice is so hot, and the slow burn (although not the biggest fan of) was worth it. It gave you the time to truely understand and appreciate that complexity of the two MMCs a lot more than jumping straight into all the good stuffs 😈😈
Jackrabbit is Cole’s debut novel and I’ve gotta give it to them. The substance, plot, development and ability to have you immerse yourself into their lives is exceptional! Well done to you Cole!
I cannot wait for Burnout!

ARC review
I would like to thank Cole for sending this book. I have many good things to say about it, so let’s start !
The angst made me teary eyed a few times if I’m being honest. Colt is such an unforgettable character, his strong mind and strength in general made me love him after a few chapters in. When it comes to Beau, he did make me angry a lot of the time, I just didn’t seem to able to understand him all the time but I do love him as well. The care, the feels and Colt’s tattoos made me love this book.
I was not expecting this book to end like it did, because I didn’t realise it was 3 books. I understood way later, after I already finished it. I was going to say the end was too abrupt to be the real end so I can’t wait to read what’s next of their story.
Let’s see what’s waiting for us in the next book !

Oh my goodness. What a book. ARC read and so grateful to have read ahead.
I def recommend! Buckle up!!
I hecking loved Colt and Beau in this book, part one of series.
Colt - full-on energy JACKRABBIT. Trauma has not won over his heart.
Beau- hardened by life but a softie inside.
So many funny moments!! I was giggling and kicking my feet so many times.
There is a pet that will steal your heart and make you cackle.
The age gap works in their favor as they balance each other out perfectly.
There are some tribulations and trials, but the growth they have by end of book leaves you wanting more and rooting for them.
Side characters are so great! Well done.
The racing is exhilarating!
So much behind the scenes we miss as spectators and this book delivers on what happens. Loved it!!!
More!! More!! We want more!!

I've never considered myself a racing fan, but this book has me asking, "wait, do I actually like racing now?" Cole has built a world that feels effortless in its acceptance of identity, especially in a field you might assume wouldn't be so welcoming to queer characters. It's a refreshing and grounding choice that makes the whole story feel more genuine.
The narrative itself is sexy, sweet, and touching in equal measure. It handles so many facets of self with real care, never sacrificing depth for heat or vice versa. This isn't just a guilty pleasure read, it's a genuine delight, and one that left me thinking about these characters long after I finished.
Definitely worth a read. I'm already counting down to the sequel!

😍😍😍
Omggggg I loved this SO much. Colt’s intro was totally iconic. His first meeting with Beau was a whirlwind and I loved the way Colt ended up fitting into Beau’s world. The tension between these two was thick enough to cut and I love love LOVED the age gap. This was super slow burn but totally worth the wait because that tension I mentioned kept me totally hooked. The fact that both characters had lost someone so important to them was a beautiful parallel and the different ways it affected their relationship were really interesting. The spice was freakin’ HOTTTTTTTTT AF. The last like 20% of this book were such an emotional rollercoaster for me but I absolutely loved the way it ended and I am beyond excited for the next part of their story.

ARC Review: Jackrabbit is released Aug 3.
Colt and Beau have stolen my heart! This book was absolutely amazing. All 460 pages of it! Their love story is full of ups and downs, and the depth of each character makes them relatable. I love the way Cole Beckett writes; his characters are believable, and the scenes are jumping off the page with detail. If you're looking for a book with heat and passion that will also make you a little frustrated with the characters, then look no further. Jackrabbit is the beginning of a series that is likely to have me hooked forever!
Thanks, Cole, for letting me be an ARC reviewer! I can't wait for the next installment in the series.
