Jenessa escapes to the sanctuary of her car and the freedom of the open road, where she can outrun her memories...if only for a while. She finds a kindred spirit in Dmitri, a warm-hearted speed demon who races at the track. But when Jenessa falls in with a group of street racers—and its irresistible leader, Cody—she finds herself caught up in a web of escalating danger. When her penchant for risk-taking spirals out of control, Jenessa has to find a way to break the self-destructive patterns she's built—before anyone else gets hurt.

Reviews-
January 1, 2012 After her only friend dies in a snowboarding accident, Jenessa (who blames herself) finds a way to escape the pain through thrill-seeking. Her fast driving and careless behaviors soon lead her into real danger, and she begins to spiral out of control. The repetitive text just skims the surface of Jenessa's motivations and emotions, but her risk-taking personality comes through.
