What a yummy cover. I expected this book to be a fun, hot little number, but it was just so much more. Flat-Out Sexy is a modern day fairy tale and Elec is a modern day Prince Charming! Elec and Tamara are two very likable characters, who you find yourself cheering for their HEA, while some complications are thought through by Tamara. While the escapades are very, very hot (satisfaction guaranteed), this story is relationship driven and all the characters involved you come to care for. This is book one in a Racing Series, all I can say is that I hope its the beginning of a 12 book series! The next book in the series is Hard and Fast. It will be released in May 2009 and will be the story of Imogen and Ty. She is Tamaras up tight assistant, hes the Godfather of Tamaras daughter and a playboy racecar driver. The preview in the back of the book makes me think May is a long time away!
This is my first Erin McCarthy book, and I think I have another author to gobble up their backlist!!! Thank you Ms. McCarthy for a book I cannot part with!

Love It! Love It! Love It! Elec and Tamara were smoking hot together! They couldn't seem to keep their hands off each other. Not only was this book steamy hot, it was laugh out loud funny as well. Elec is every woman's dream man; not only is he "flat-out sexy," he's caring, charming, great with her kids, attentive, and a great listener. (If only he was real and not a character in a book. LOL) Everyone has, or wish they had, a friend like Suzanne. She's absolutely hilarious. She and Ryder have an interesting dynamic that I hope will be explored further in a book of their own. I read the snippet at the back of the book which is Imogen (Emma Jean, lol) and Ty's story. From what I read it promises to be another sizzling hot read. I'm impatiently waiting to read it. I got this one from the library, but I definitely will be picking up a copy to add to me "keeper" shelf! Absolutely worth the read.
I fell in love with the characters of this book! I like Erin McCarthy, but I think Flat-Out Sexy is her best yet. I could not put it down! Tamara, a racecar driver's widow, literally bumps into a rookie driver at a fundraiser. While she thinks she is looking for someone more "boring" than a racecar driver, she quickly falls in lust with her rookie. I believe that McCarthy is going to make this a series...

I really enjoyed this book. I wasnt sure I would because the cover seemed to be trying too hard, but as they say, shouldnt judge a book by its cover because I loved this one. Great normal, family involving romance set along the backdrop of the racing scene. The story focuses less on the scene though and mroe on character development and their relationships which I loved.
I find some erotica tends to go heavy on steamy and light on story. This combined the content of a great mainstream romance with some HOT stuff.
The main characters were extremely likeable (LOVE Suzanne!) and I found myself wanting to read stories about all of them.
I do not keep much erotica-usually a catch and release sort of gal, but this one is staying on my keeper shelf.

Absolutely, positively LOVED Elec and Tamara's story. Can't wait for Ty's and Imogen's book. Even if you don't like Nascar, you'll like this book.
