Britton's third in the NASCAR series is entertaining. Though it lacks the sizzle of "Dangerous Curves," Britton makes up for it by giving her characters much-needed depth. Rebecca's anguish in moving on is evident from the start and it is nice to see a heroine not just jump into the arms of a new man so quickly. Readers familiar with the series will find themselves scratching their heads as Rebecca and Randy's last name switched from Newell to Newman for no apparent reason.

Pamela Britton is a very good writer; blend of real life problems and romance. This story is about Rebecca Newman, widow of driver Randy Newman, and car owner, her new driver and his very precocious daughter. A very good read.

I am a NASCAR fan and was hesitant to read any of Pamela's books at first. However, after I read one, I was hooked. On The Edge is fantastic and a must read for anyone who read any of Pamela's books.

For Nascar racing fans this is a must read! For non-racing fans its still a great book, easy to follow and loveable drivers.

I finished "On The Edge" by Pamela Britton last night at work. I have to say, this installment in her NASCAR series of books was, as always, a great read. Now I have to admit, I never realized it was a series until I realized that I kept seeing the same characters. Duh. LOL I have all but one of the books and I ordered the one I'm missing from PaperBackSwap last night, so I'll have it in a couple of weeks. :)

"On The Edge" is the story of Becca Newman and Adam Drake. It's the third book in the series, with "Dangerous Curves" being the first book, although "Dangerous Curves" is not a part of the NASCAR Library Collection. Becca Newman is the widow of five-time Nextel Cup Series champion Randy Newman. She heads up her late husband's one-car race team. When 10-year-old Lindsey Drake makes her way, on her own and without her dad's knowledge, to Mooresville, NC to speak with Becca about giving her dad, Adam, a chance to drive for Newman Motorsports, Becca just can't find it in her heart to refuse.

This book keeps you wondering what will happen next as Lindsey makes some very obvious attempts at matchmaking. You'll definitely laugh, and at one point, I even had to wipe tears away during a scene towards the end of the book, because it was one of those sad/happy moments. You'd just have to read the book to understand.

If you are a NASCAR fan and a romance fan, I highly suggest you get started on the NASCAR Library Series books by Pamela Britton. In order they are - "Dangerous Curves" (not officially a part of the NASCAR Library but first in the series), "In The Groove," "On The Edge," "To The Limit," "Total Control," and "On The Move." The next book, according to Ms. Britton's website, is an untitled book that comes out in late 2009. There is a story in "A NASCAR Holiday 2" that I believe also goes somewhere in the series, probably between "Total Control" and "On The Move" but I'm not certain. I'll have to find the book and read the story again. :)
