Road Tripping
by Noelle Adams
Publication Date: July 7, 2014
Synopsis:
Ethan was Ashley’s secret crush, until he became an asshole.
Asshole is too good a word for him. It’s bad enough that he stopped talking to her brother, who was his best friend since preschool. It’s even worse that he went wild and got involved with criminal types. But the worst thing of all is the way he trapped her on this ridiculous road trip.
That’s what it is. Ridiculous. It just isn’t normal for a girl to get dragged from Virginia to South Dakota in a stolen car with just $1000 in cash. With Ethan Moore, who is way too hot and way too infuriating to be tolerated. But she’s stuck with him on a trip that is taking way longer than it should, sharing cheap hotel rooms, destroying cars, and eluding bad guys.
Yep. There are bad guys chasing them. Even worse guys than Ethan, and that’s saying a lot.
Plus, she’s having trouble keeping her hands off Ethan. In fact, she’s falling for him hard—when she isn’t wanting to wring his neck.
So, for two crazy weeks, her pride, her heart, and her life are all threatened. Ashley isn’t sure which she’ll lose first.

Review by Gia:
Road Tripping was a good read. Under genres Road Tripping is not listed as a romantic suspense but that exactly what I would call it.
Ashley blame Ethan for a lot of thing that has happened to her and her family. When she is back in town, she runs into Ethan. She gets tied up in Ethan's mess and next thing you know the two of them are fleeing from Virginia to South Dakota. Ethan is involved in the illegal moonshine business and because he wants out of it, he now has hired guns after him. Ethan is convinced that Ashley will be safer with him. There's shot outs, high speed chases, stolen cars and a lot of sexual tension.
I started out not being a big fan of Ethan's because all we know is what Ashely thinks is the truth about Ethan. When the truth all comes out, you can't help but like Ethan.
At the end of the book we get a bonus of a deleted scene. It's hot and steamy sex scene. There is also a note from Noelle Adams saying that she deleted three sex scenes before the final copy was done. Her reasoning was she felt there should be limit to how many times Ashley and Ethan should stop for sex. I totally agree with her, the book was perfect they way it was and in real life if you where fleeing hired guns I think sex would be the last thing on your mind. Road Tripping was wonderfully written.
