Hairpin Curves



by Elia Winters

⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5



Who doesn’t love a good road trip romance!?!?

Is there a better way for two characters to come together then through the tight confinement in a car and the shared experiences through the journey? 

Megan and Scarlett were best friends in high school until Scarlett decides at the last minute not to go to the same college as Megan. With hurt feeling they drift apart until five years later when another mutual friend puts then into the position of needing each other again. Megan and Scarlett put their feelings aside and join forces for the ultimate road trip for their friends wedding.

I really enjoyed Elia Winters writing. This was the first work of her that I have read and I was swept away with the road trip excitement from the beginning. She created characters that had depth and she continued to dive deeper into them as the story progressed. The relationship between Megan and Scarlett developed and grow organically and I liked how it was taken one step at a time.

The road trip was just a fun to read about as the story progressed, overall this was acute story of friendship redeemed and love found. 

As always, Carina Press delivers the happily ever after I crave! A cute read that I totally recommend!


Hairpin Curves by Elia Winters is scheduled to release July 28th, 2020.


Book Description

Megan Harris had hopes of seeing the world, but at twenty-five she’s never even left Florida. Now a wedding invitation lures her to Quebec…in February. When her ex-friend Scarlett offers to be her plus-one (yeah, that’s a whole story) and suggests they turn the journey into an epic road trip, Megan reluctantly agrees to the biggest adventure of her life.

A week together in a car is a surefire way to kill a crush, and Scarlett Andrews has had a big one on Megan for years. The important thing is fixing their friendship.

As the miles roll away, what starts as harmless road-trip games and rest-stop dares escalates into something like intimacy. And when a surprise snowstorm forces Megan and Scarlett to hunker down without the open road as distraction, they’ve got a bigger challenge than making it to the church on time: facing the true nature of their feelings for each other.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Harlequin and the Harlequin Publicity Team. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Ellie-May is no stranger to public scorn, as the daughter of an outlaw , she knows what the Rangers accusations against her deceased husband will do to her family and children. For the sake of her family, she will do anything to protect them and that includes keeping secrets and resisting the Rangers charms!  This was fun story. I loved how the romance also included the children because as a mother myself (happily married) I could never imagine being able to separate my love life from that of my family life. A new partner would definitely need to win over the kids along with me!  ...
