Put that all together and you have the latest romance by Francis Ray, Nobody but You. This is a wonderful novel that takes the reunited lovers and secret child themes so dear to all of us romance readers and gives them a heart racing plot set in the dynamic world of NASCAR. I fell in love with Cameron from the moment he found out he had a son and staked his claim. This is one for the keeper shelf.

What a THRILLING read! I was CAUGHT UP in not only the second-chance romance between Caitlin and Cameron, but also the fast and fun thrills of the whole NASCAR scene. I must admit I found it DIFFICULT to empathize with Caitlin, I mean I understand her fears, but I could NEVER agree with keeping a child away from his father without just cause (such as mental or physical abuse). Cameron's DEFINITELY a ONE-OF-KIND guy, there aren't many men that would be as FORGIVING or accommodating as he was with Caitlin after the ULTIMATE betrayal. And Joshua was quite the little CHARMER, throughout this novel, I couldn't help but fall in love with him and all his antics throughout this story. Mrs. Ray once AGAIN, had me LOL, reaching for the KLEENEX, and CHEERING as Cameron and Caitlin made an attempt to move pass ALL the hurts and the fears in order to give their son the family he so desperately wanted. I also enjoyed the informative tidbits Mrs. Ray provided throughout about NASCAR and the racing world. I simply love this story; the cast of characters, the bitter-sweet storyline, the racing chills and thrills and as ALWAYS the close-knit family ties, just a wonderful treat! I can't wait for the next installment in the Grayson Friends Series.

Wow- this book is so well written. The research done on the world of Nascar and racing was so enlightening. The romance was awesome, but it was really nice to have all the behind the scenes detail. As always, the author gives us a very rich story, filled with love and family. You can't go wrong with this book. And let me just say, the race track isn't the only thing smoking!
