Breaking Away (Rocking Racers, #3) by Megan Lowe – Review by Heather Bass

Breaking Away (Rocking Racers, #3)Breaking Away by Megan Lowe
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book to the Rocking Racers series. This is my new favorite genre sport romance. This could be read as a stand alone but to get a better understanding of the characters you should read the first two. You will love them just as much as this book. This book has it all romance, deception, danger, and love. I could not put this book down. I devoured this amazing story in only a few hours.

Maverick Ryan has the dream life with his family and friends. He is a very famous freestyle biker on the outside but on the inside he wants more. Mav has a different dream than his brother’s. He ends up breaking away from the race scene and tries to follow his dream. His first day he runs into a guy that he instantly clicks with. They become friends right away. Mav thinks he has his new life figured out until he sees his friend’s sister. He is instantly drawn to her and his new goal is to make her his. The problem is their pasts get in the way. Will Mav follow his dreams or will it be too much? Will he get his girl or will she run for the hills?

Aubrey James knows a bad boy when she sees one. She has already had her fill with bad boys. She is not going to make that mistake again. When her brother brings a guy with tattoos covering his hot body she refuses to go near him. When Aubrey’s past comes knocking on the door Mav steps up and protects them. She may have misjudged him. Will Aubrey give Mav a chance into her heart or will she leave him high and dry?

This has been my favorite book so far in this amazing series. I love all of the characters. Mav is so strong in following his dreams. He is a true gentleman under all of the ink. He is a man that has a heart of gold and would do anything to see Aubrey smile. Aubrey is a real sweetheart once you get to know why she is the way she is. She had a hard past but it made her stronger and more independent. There is some intense scenes that will break your heart. This story deals with an addiction you don’t hear much about but the author does an amazing job on this toughsubject. The best part of this book is that it is in multiple points of views. I love it when you read what a character is feeling. It makes you more connected to the characters and it brings them to life. This is another masterpiece by this author and I can not wait and see who’s story is next.
