Surge By Sloan Storm


Dyson Vix. The bad boy of Formula One Racing.

The first time I met him he was completely naked, and he couldn’t have cared less.

The second time I saw Dyson, he just stood there, staring at me. His fire suit hung low on his waist, and his body was dripping in sweat, grease and… well, you get the idea.

The ultimate playboy, there isn’t a hairpin turn he can’t handle or a woman he can’t have. Dyson lives life like he drives – hard, determined, and like it might be his last day.

We couldn’t have been more different. After a family tragedy, I’ve been left to raise my nephew, Simon, all alone. Raising him has given me more joy than I could’ve imagined, but it came at a price. He is my entire world, and everything I do is with him in mind. I haven’t had a date in months, instead focusing solely on him. Man troubles are the last thing we need, especially the kind reckless thrill seeker Dyson Vix would bring. 

But fate has other ideas.

I’ve been thrust into his fast-paced world, and the more time I spend with him -- the more I see of the troubled man behind the roguish charm -- the more my resolve crumbles. Our chemistry is undeniable but isn’t without risk. Jealousy and threats to my home life mean I could lose everything I’ve worked so hard to protect.

The stakes have never been higher. 

Will we make it, or are we destined to crash and burn?


I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. 

Like the blurb says, after a family tragedy, she's left raising her nephew, a now seven year old boy in her care. 
She loves him wholeheartedly, but I found after the first time she leaves him to go to work, she has no problem leaving him, even though everything she does is for him. I guess I didn't really like him NOT been in the book when a child is supposed to be the centre of your universe. I should know. I'm a mom. 

Ava, after giving the gorgeous Dyson a medical check has to see him again to take back the results. 
When she's offered a job with them for a generous amount of money she takes it. 
I will admit I didn't feel the chemistry as such beyond sexual. I have to admit that there. Where love came into I don't know or where Dyson's moods stemmed from. There was no reason for him to be the way he was. He hadn't suffered anything to make it that way. It made it hard to wrap my head around the way he was thinking. 

The blackmailing part got me interested, and so did the two russian girls, Dyson is caught having sex with. But nothing ever really seemed to happen. It kind of let the story down for me. 

This is the first time reading this authors work, and although parts of the story weren't IT for me, I will be reading more of her work. She's a very talented writer and should be proud of this book.
