Synopsis (Goodreads):
Two mechanics. One rivalry.
She’ll prove she’s as good as she says she is.
He’ll prove her place isn’t under the hood.
It’s over it.

“Don’t let the bastards get you down.”
For twenty-six years, I lived by my daddy’s motto. Which is why “Mechanic Wanted” is all it takes for me to apply for the job at the garage we once owned.
And I meet the biggest bastard of them all.
Dexter Ryne. Hotter than Hell in July and a firm believer that my place is on reception, taking phone calls and looking pretty. Not getting dirty under the hood of a car.
Determined to prove each other wrong, we make a deal.
I have three weeks to prove my worth as a mechanic. If I don’t, I’m on telephone duty.
If I do, he’ll accept defeat and make my job permanent.
Now, all I have to do is fight my attraction to the cocky little… beep.
Problem is, an engine isn’t the only thing he knows how to make purr…

MISS MECHANIC, a standalone romantic comedy from New York Times bestseller, Emma Hart.
Thoughts on Miss Mechanic: Jamie and Dex are...I'm going to say they're kind of explosive. Jamie has a bit of a temper and Dex doesn't want to be attracted to her, but they both have the hots for one another even though they're DESPERATELY trying to deny it to themselves (and everyone else around them).

When you have simmering attraction and you throw in a heaping handful of denial, THINGS HAPPEN. Sexy things. Things like accidentally going at it in the garage when the let their guard down. HOO-BOY. That was a smokin' hot encounter.

But as antagonistically compatible as they may be physically, they fight like...well, actually, they fight like they're engaging in really intense foreplay. Which sort of reminds be of a certain Noelle Bond and her honey, come to think of it. (No lie, I like the verbal sparring as foreplay. Characters who get wound up poking at each other do it for me apparently. And then the OTHER type of poking happens and...GOOD TIMES!)

Sexy, fun, and hot in all the right places. I got a kick out of Jamie and Dex and their (somewhat) complicated relationship.
