Nights in the Fast Lane: A Contemporary Romantic Comedy by Grace Risata
Synopsis/Blurb:
Dane and Izzy.
Complete opposites.
As the New Year begins, they find themselves facing very different circumstances.
Dane is a street racer stuck with a blown engine, no money, and no options after he gets fired for saving a damsel in distress.
Izzy can’t believe she was just rescued by the same handsome stranger she walks past, and lusts after, on a daily basis. With a massive blizzard about to bury the town, she ends up taking him in for the night.
Sparks fly when she brings out his playful side, and he shows her a passion she’s never known before.
As they slowly begin to trust each other, walls come down and tragic pasts emerge. Dane is haunted by the family he never had, while Izzy will stop at nothing to deny her birthright.
When Dane receives an offer he can’t refuse, will one bad decision cost him everything? Or will fate intervene and send these two down the path they were destined for?
This is a full length, stand-alone novel with no cliffhangers. Please be advised that you will find strong language, attractive men with tattoos, a dog with a cat name, steamy bedroom scenes including one involving Doritos, plenty of character backstory, and a very healthy dose of humor.

This was the first book I have read by this author and I believe she now has a new stalker/fan. This book is for a mature audience. It is full of Alpha males, feisty women, fast cars and a bit of mob. This book has a lot of humor in it that I was so happy to see. You will laugh, cuss, scream, and many other emotions will take over as you are enjoying this book. I am giving this book 4 strong stars and will hope that the author writes another with these characters. Maybe with Winter and Spider. Oh that would be an interesting book!
Izzy works at a cosmetic warehouse taking orders via the internet/email. She loves her job, her little house, and her dog named Kitty. She has two wonderful best friends that have helped her through life wonderfully! She would do anything for them. She has her fantasies now of the beautiful, sexy Brick Wall of a man that started working at a site near where she works. Never in a million years did she think she would take him home so he wasn’t in the cold during a severe snowstorm. She sure as hell did not think he would ever be interested in someone as plain and broken as she is. Oh what a difference a couple of weeks can make.
Dane works as a mechanic, along with racing cars. When his engine blows during a street race, he needs a way to come up with the cash to fix it. He will not take hand outs so his best friend gets him a quick money maker job. When the job goes terribly wrong, Dane has to leave town for a while until things calm down. That is how he found himself working for very little money and homeless. Little does he know that his life is about to get complicated.
I will be watching for more from this author! I enjoyed her humor that is throughout this book very much. I stayed awake too late to read until it was finished. So buyer beware, you will not want to put this book down!!! Thank you Grace Risata for your wonderful story of Dane and Izzy. You now have a new fan.
About the Author
I would first and foremost like to thank everyone for taking the time to give my stories a chance. My goal is to take you out of your world, and all the stresses that go along with everyday life, and bring you into my world of romance and fantasy. I have a special weakness for hot alpha males and the feisty heroines who love them. Above all else, I hope you got a laugh out of my book. I aim to incorporate as much comedy into my romance as is humanly possible.
My professional biography is as follows (I’m not sure why it’s in the third person, evidently that’s the rule): Grace is happiest when reading, eating Portillos hot dogs, and patiently waiting for the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
