Monkey Wrench

by Rachel Everly

Beth Bankley is having the worst, no good, very bad day. She’s picked up her entire life and driven to Phoenix for a get-the-hell-out-of-Lincoln fresh start. The kind where a lying sister and a cheating ex-boyfriend doesn’t exist.

Dawson Tate is easy going. Women come and go filtering through his bachelor life with the frequency of a good tire rotation and an oil change. When he meets Beth and instantly realizes she’s his new tenant… all bets are off.

This is a full on insta-love romance with a guaranteed HEA. It's short and steamy, perfect for reading next time you see your mechanic for a tune-up. XO - Rachel

50 pages, Kindle Edition

This is a fantastic contemporary romance and it’s a shortish story about 50 pages. Beth has left town and is driving on her way to Phoenix and on the way there she gets a flat tyre so now she has to unload all of the boxes in the boot to get to the jack and the tyre, could things get any worse?. Dawson is driving to another town to get supplies for his mechanic shop when he see’s a woman bending over her boot, he stops to help her but his breath catches in his throat this is one gorgeous woman and he’s more than happy to help. This is just the beginning of this story and it’s all I’m going to give you because after all it’s a shortish story, but it’s a fantastic story and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

4 1/2 Stars

For a short contemporary romance this story checked off all the boxes. With Dawson swooping in and literally rescuing Beth from her flat tire and her flattened life of woes. She’s been stepped on and tossed aside emotionally on all fronts but is trying to make a new start snapping and kicking all the way! Dawson likes her spunky personality and his alpha male protector gene is activated as soon as he see her and gets a taste of her sass!
Well written, easy to follow, no nonsense sweet and sexy romance!

Beth and Dawson are going to give you an exciting and HOT insta story for you. Rachel took what could happen, added a woman having a rough life and added a blue collar man to make one great read. She swore off men but he isn't any man he's the one.

Perfect for those having a bad day or have that fantasy of a real man helping you out on the side of the road. Loved it!!!!

Nothing is going on correctly in heroines life n out of spur of moment she takes off to a remote place with hope to start a fresh. Hero was passerby who saw a flat tire n a beautiful girl trying to fix it. They fall in love n have monkey sex. The story is too short to draw any conclusion although I liked author's way of writhing would love to read novels if they are full length novels.

After a run of bad luck, Beth quits her job and moves to Phoenix for a free start. After finding out her fiancé cheated with her ex-best friend, the last thing she wants is another relationship.. Try telling that to sexy mechanic Dawson Tate! When Dawson sees Beth on the side of the road, his protective nature kicks in. Boom-instant attraction! If you are looking for a quick, steamy novella that will put a smile on your face, this is the book for you!

This is a fun short read that can be read fairly quickly. This is a fairly well written story for it's length. I enjoyed Beth and Dawson short story. There is instant chemistry when they meet. She is really having a challenging time of it. I love how protective he seems. Both are good characters and meant to be together.
