Genre-Spicy Contemporary Romantic Comedy
Her life took a wrong turn. He's driven by success. They didn't count on crashing into love...
Rachel Bennett loved her job until the day she finds herself doubting her choices. Now she's hunting for a new career, but starting over isn't easy. Her plan is simple—no distractions until she finds her dream job. She didn't plan on fate throwing her a curveball in the form of a fender bender with a sexy guy in an expensive suit.
Craig Larsen is a wealthy, successful business owner with a plan of his own: survive his current PR nightmare and stay away from his overly determined ex-girlfriend. His need for control and personal success is turned upside down when he meets Rach, a sassy redhead who can't drive.
Soon they find themselves battling with Rach's grumpy old neighbor, toilet-papering the trees of a high school nemesis, and fighting over the last slice of pizza. Can two very different people plus one fender bender equal a chance at forever?
Fender Bender Blues is about Rachel Bennett-- A 30-something woman who has decided her life needs a change --and Craig Larsen --a workaholic who needs a serious attitude adjustment. The story, while it does have a good dash of angst thrown in there, is definitely a light-hearted novel, with cute and hilarious moments throughout. While I prefer to be left crying every-other-sentence, this was a good change of pace for me, and I enjoyed the giggles I got. :)
And I really loved that her characters were all incredibly...deep. They weren't nearly as fluffy, which actually made me enjoy the novel a lot more than I would have if they weren't both so cool. Rachel and Craig make this story fantastic.
If you're looking for a quick, light-hearted story that will leave you with a smile on your face, this is definitely for you!

About the Author
Niecey Roy knew she wanted to be a writer from a very young age, but her moment of enlightenment came after watching the movie You’ve Got Mail. It was then she realized her place in life and happily parked her butt on writing romance. Her dream was to create sexy vixens, hunky, half naked heroes, and above all, romance; lots and lots of butterflies in the belly, breathless first kisses and happily-ever-afters.
When she’s not at her day job where she works as a legal assistant, she can be found at home at a cluttered desk, pounding her tired little fingers away on a keyboard with nothing but black pepper flavored sunflower seeds and Visine as her weapons for mass-romance-novel-creation. When her fingers need a break, you’ll find her at a table with friends, drinking a few martinis and showing off a new pair of (sometimes ridiculous) high heels. She’s usually the loudest at the table and most often the one snorting with laughter.
