Synopsis: Bobby Wayne Forsythe is a NASCAR superstar on the verge of greatness with the likes of The King and The Intimidator when an on-track accident leaves his career in jeopardy and his future uncertain. He returns to the home he owns with Lauren Foster-Forsythe, Wife Number 3. The only woman he's ever loved. And the only woman who has ever walked away from him - without a backward glance, leaving his heart broken. And a gaping hole in his soul that no other woman has been able to fill. And he's tried. A lot.

Lauren Foster-Forsythe is a country music sensation and the ex-wife of Bobby Wayne Forsythe. Theirs had been a whirlwind courtship; their marriage fairytale. Their life together perfect, until Bobby Wayne's deceit destroyed everything, leaving Laurent with bittersweet memories of what could have been. And a stately, centuries-old mansion on the shores of Albemarle Sound she still jointly owns with him. A home she needs to turn ownership over to him if she is to move forward. It's hard. It's the only home she's ever had.

With her career in chaos, her life in turmoil, Lauren returns to the stately house on the shore for one more visit. Instead of finding closure, she finds Bobby Wayne. Still hard-bodied, still white-hot sexy. Still able to make her heart race like no other man. Even when hope seems lost, buried in the rubble of bad choices and hasty decisions, sparks of attraction fly, tempers flare, but nothing revs like two hearts still deeply in love. Still wanting one more chance to cross the finish line a winner.

Review: I read The Journey by this author, and I'm still interested in reading more of her books, but the leading man in Beyond the Checkered Flag creeped me out. 

The book itself was sexy, but I couldn't get past the red flags that Bobby Wayne's character kept throwing.
