Vincent Benavides has a thriving music career with his band, Mystic Asphalt. They just finished a three-month tour, and their highly anticipated second album, Full Throttle, will soon be released. To celebrate their success, Ivan, the band’s bass player, is throwing a massive party with women, booze, and drugs.

But Vincent is falling apart. He’s done with the band, tired of arguing with Ivan, and most of all, he hates the man he sees in the mirror: a man haunted by his unfulfilled dreams and plagued by visions of a fateful night three years ago. Pushed over the edge, he stumbles into the cold night and flees to Birch Creek.

While he tries to find his footing and contemplates his future in music, he also relives the best and worst moments he shared with Nora, the unforgiving woman who still holds his heart.

Not as gripping as I had hoped

I absolutely loved the second book in this series, Life Is Fair (which was published prior to Road Rash so I did actually read the books in that order!!), so I had high hopesfor Road Rash, but sadly I ultimately felt a bit let down by it. I think not experiencing the same depth of connection to Vincent as I had done previously to Nora was a big part of this. There are similarities with people coming to terms with themselves and their pasts, but rather than sympathising with Vincent, I found his repeated excuses and circular thinking became quite tiresome. I did stick with the book and, overall, it was a pretty good read, but had I started reading Marion Raby's Life Series with Road Rash I probably would not have gone on to read Life Is Fair which would have been a real shame.
