Wilde City Wednesday | Release day Review of Drive Shaft 2 by Geoffrey Knight w/COMMENT #giveaway

Drive Shaft 2, Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Geoffrey Knight
Wilde City Press (January 14th 2015) re-release
**** 4 Star review ****


“When the going gets tough, the tough get going—so start your engines!”

Once in a while, everyone falls on hard times. Every year it seems the cost of living goes up, business slows down and money’s just too tight to mention. But for old Clyde, ever-increasing debts have forced him to turn to a notorious loan shark, Tony Trimboli, just so he can keep the doors to his auto shop open and make sure his two hard-working employees—Dean ‘Hutch’ Hutchinson and Jensen Rivers—are able to pay their own rent and make ends meet.

Now the time has come for Clyde to pay up, or else the troublesome Trimboli Triplets—Tony’s three trigger-happy sons—will not only take Clyde’s business from him… they’ll burn it to the ground.
For Hutch and Jensen, there’s only one way to raise the money in time to save Clyde’s livelihood—win the perilous Reaper’s Rally, an illegal two-day race across the scorching desert with a cool $50,000 cash waiting for the first car to cross the finish line.

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to buckle up and start your engines! The race is on to save not only the auto shop but each other’s lives, as Hutch and Jensen blaze a trail of turbo-charged testosterone and high-speed action across the burning California desert in Drive Shaft 2: Between a Rock and a Hard Place.

Jensen and Hutch are settling into being a couple, moving in together, Jensen is even painting over Hutch’s horrible wall paper. It’s very blissfully normal. Until a local thug and his comes knocking at the shop, wanting the money Clyde borrowed back, with a hefty amount of interest. In order to help the man they have both come to care for like a father, Jensen and Hutch decide to do what they do best, drive.

For two men that went from zero to sixty in their relationship, the specifics of this race will test the boundaries of that relationship. If they stand a chance of winning, they are about to get a crash course in communication and trust. The goal of the race at the start is to win so they can bail Clyde out and save the ship. It becomes a race for their lives as the Trimboli Triplets do anything and everything possible to sabotage Jensen and Hutch from winning. When the troublesome twosome show they are stronger and smarter than the Triplets initially thought, they resort to deadly measures to win.

This book was full of suspense, action and passion as Jensen and Hutch not only navigate their way through a dangerous and deadly race, they are still learning to navigate their way through each other. Through a snake pit, a dangerous cave, almost drowning and a spooky graveyard capped off by some hot, steamy, paint peeling sex on the hood of the Viper, these two are definitely getting more comfortable in their relationship. I could have done without the constant mentioning of the age difference, which is only six years, and Jensen forever referred to as the young Texan. But overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the edge of my seat action that ran from start to finish in this book.

There was a little sneak peak at the end of this book for book three, and I am so excited for the possibility of threesome. Can’t wait to see how much trouble Jensen and Hutch can strum up in Russia, with a certain Russian.


A must read for anyone that loves an adrenaline rush and some page burning romance.


From palace-hopping across the Rajasthan Desert to sleeping in train stations in Bulgaria, from spinning prayer-wheels in Kathmandu to exploring the skull-gated graveyards of the indigenous Balinese tribes, Geoffrey Knight has been a traveller ever since he could scrape together enough money to buy a plane ticket. Born in Melbourne but raised and educated in countless cities and towns across Australia, Geoffrey was a nomadic boy who grew into a nomadic gay writer. When he’s not travelling the world, Geoffrey is travelling the world of his imagination—where the adventures, thrills and romance are limitless.

He currently owns his own advertising and design agency which he runs from his island home on the Great Barrier Reef, and can’t wait to buy his next plane ticket—whether it’s real or imaginary.

  10. Nice review and insightful, there are so many issues surrounding such a quick relationship that I hope they work through it and what an interesting hint about the next book in the series ;)

    It's a bit tricky for me to pick a favourite author at Wilde City, as I think my fellow readers maybe surprised at how many well known authors are published by this relatively new publisher, for instance JP Barnaby, Eric Arvin, Ethan Day, Heidi Cullinan, Ally Blue, Sara York & TJ Klune are a few I know off but there are many more. If you get a chance to go on their site also check the the author caricatures, they are fun.

    Thank you for a chance to win ecopies of Geoffrey Knights books Drive Shaft & Drive Shaft 2, awesome thank you so much :) slholland22 {at} hotmail {dot} com
