Two mechanics. One rivalry.

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…
⭐️ 4.5 "Sassy Meets Stubborn" Stars ⭐️
Miss Mechanic is the perfect romantic comedy. Throw an heroine with a feisty personality with a stubborn sexy hero and you’ve got a winner! I found myself smiling wide and laughing so often during this light read.
"I bled motor oil. I breathed the rancid air of gas.
And I fought every day against the discrimination of that. And I was tired of people putting me down because I had a pair of boobs."
Jamie Bell has a very sassy attitude and is quite sarcastic, which bring a lot of hilarious moments with her new boss Dexter Ryne. She wants to prove him that a girl can make the job as a mechanic. She’s so set to prove him wrong and earned her position in his garage. Dex doesn’t like to be wrong and makes everything to irritate her when he soon realizes that she knows what she’s doing with cars.
"I can't decide if sarcasm is your default setting, or you're deliberately trying to wind me up to the point I fire you."
It’s always one-liners after another between these two. I enjoyed every single minute of this funny read. While you get to experience a comical story, you also get the strong underlying attraction they share. All the repressed desire they refrain, lead to spicy moments when they finally succumb to the inevitable.
"We set each other off. lone, he was gasoline and I was a lit match.
Together, we were a raging inferno."
I really enjoyed the secondary characters, that all added another side of humour and teasing. They clearly see the sparks between Jamie and Dex and scheme to get them together.
Miss Mechanic will definitely entertain you for a few hours and leave you with a huge grin on your face. Emma Hart never fails and penned here another humorous, engaging, sexy story.

“Can I help you?” I asked. He blinked and met my eyes. “What the hell are you doing over there?” I pushed to stand up straight. “Right now?” He capped his water bottle. “Well, honestly… I’m just thinking you’d look better over the hood of that car than under it.” I unhooked the hood and slammed it down, spinning on the balls of my feet. Our eyes met properly. I didn’t like what I saw in his—desire, attraction, need. Which was obviously why a shiver ran down my spine. I cocked a hip, putting my hand on it. “The only time you will ever get me over a hood of a car is if a wiper blade needs changing. So, unless you’re a wiper blade...” Dex pulled his phone from his pocket and started tapping the screen. I blinked. “What are you doing?” He peered up at me through his unfairly thick eyelashes. “Seeing if I can get a wiper blade costume for Halloween.” “I don’t even know how to respond to that.” “You can buy wiper blade glasses.” “What?” He raised his eyebrows. “And a lady here on eBay will hand-make any costume. There’s my Halloween sorted.” I stared at him. “You’re not getting me over anything, Dex. Definitely not a car hood. No matter what you think.” He clutched his chest dramatically. “You wound me.” “Unfortunately not fatally,” I muttered. “You also underestimate me.” “There’s a lot of that going around in this garage.” I put the bottle of coolant away. “Touché.” “Thank you.” “Can I ask you something?” I sighed and turned to face him again. “What?” Earnestly, he asked, “Can you stop wearing those tiny shorts? Or yoga pants that make me want to touch your ass every five minutes?” I looked down at the ripped shorts of my dungarees. “Can you keep your thoughts to yourself? Control yourself, maybe? Not look at me and see someone worth screwing?”
