Without Limits: Austin
***Without Limits is part of the Rugged series and can be read as a stand-alone contemporary romance story.***
Austin Clark was my first date, my first love, and I thought he'd be my husband. But he chose his NASCAR career over me and then skipped town to join a racing team. I spent months drowning in sorrow about a relationship with Austin that could never be. Even Austin's best friend, Rick, felt jaded by his actions to leave everything behind. Together, we got over Austin and I married Rick. After all, life goes on.
Now nearly four years later and right after my devastating divorce from Rick, Austin Clark returns to town. To make matters worse, he's also the private investor who saved me at the last minute from having to sell my dress boutique. Once known as the poor kid from the opposite side of the tracks, Austin is retired from NASCAR and has become a wealthy business tycoon. The tables have certainly turned, which leads me to wonder if his return has everything to do with getting back at me for marrying his best friend and nothing to do with making amends.
*
Author's Note: The Rugged series stories can be read as stand-alone contemporary romance books. Each one features a different couple (bad boy & alpha male included) and concludes on a happy ending.

Austin Clark was a biker and belonged to MC "The Rugged Riders." He lived on the other side of the tracks and he met a high school girl Valerie. He was four years older than she, but he cared for her and she began to fall for him even though he had college and older woman after him. When her dad found out about his past he persuaded Valerie from seeing him. He worked in a mechanic shop owned by one of his best friend's (Rick) dad. When he wasn't able to take Valerie to her prom, Rick took her. And after Austin decided he couldn't give Valerie all the things she deserved he decided to leave to make his fortune and return for her. But she was devastated when he left without a word and Rick stepped in and married her. That didn't last long he was a gambler and used Valerie's business as collateral of his debts. She almost lost her business until a company gave her a loan to keep it open. Austin comes back to town as a billionaire. A good read.

It was Ok
One, I'm not happy that this book is so short..and the bonus book is a book 1) I already have and 2) is a book that is 2 books before this one. This book should have been some short novella at the end of the last one.
Austin is a member of the Rugged Riders MC, but there's no mention of any other biker, no get together, no confrontation with her parents, or his former best friend, Ricky..there as no exploration of the "money he owed some guys" and the conflict/ resolution there. Austin left unexpectedly and his girl married his best friend, there was no "real" discussion about this on her part. She made it seem like "yeah, you left and I "needed" someone so I married Ricky, deal with it".
The story seemed thrown together with no real story, there. I think I'm more upset that for the cost of this book, I paid for book 2, twice. Not happy.

Wow
When I started reading this series it was a fresh new love story that I enjoyed reading that got better with part 2. The way part 2 ended I was eager and ready to read about an ending to part 2 with a beautiful start to part 3. The issue I keep having is with both part 3 and this one is seems to be "limits" set on these last 2 stories and I feel cheated. For example this story was for us to get to know another rugged rider which is perfect but it falls short in that you Do Not get a full length novel and it gives very brief details on previous situations on how things start and then rushes to end. Hopefully there is a promise for a full length novel to update all the rugged riders in the future.

CAUGHT MY ATTENTION!!#
While this novel caught my attention, I still needed more. True to form, it was a Rugged Rider novel. The hero had that take action personality, that I love. I would have just liked to know a little more about him, his relationship with the Rugged Riders, why he left town. The addition of another story at the end of the book was a nice treat too. Great job Ms. Kirk. I will be patiently waiting for the next installment.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was a quick read that got gets right to the point of the story. The author did a wonderful job filling in all the details and flushing out the characters. It's too bad we we don't all have an Austin in our lives!

So good
I love reading books about long lost lovers reconnecting and this was a good one. When Austin shows back up in town after 4 years to help the "one" he left behind. It is hard for Valerie to accept his help. But Austin makes it Hard to say no.
