He was mainly attracted to photographs that stimulated his imagination, and his taste ran toward the idiosyncratic-images that surprised him chiefly because he had never seen them before. (1921–1987) amassed an extraordinary collection of 26,000 photographs between 19, recognizing that photography was an undervalued art form on which he might have a profound impact as a collector. Thomas, The Long and the Short Of It Reviews "Let me tell you now that the fun is in the Thrill of the Chase." - Lil, Love Romances and More It was really a joy to watch develop." - Crystal, My Reading Room "Thrill of the Chase is a high octane ride that will throw you for a loop." - J. I wasn't ready to let go of Sarah and her world." - The Book Vixen "There is some great racing action and great character-development on the part of the three main characters. Maria Hatton - Booklist Review, Octo"When I got to the end of Thrill of the Chase, I wanted more. Impulsive and spoiled, Sarah is both enjoyable and annoying, and readers will sympathize with Gordon in this atypical, up-to-the-minute contemporary romance. She'll do anything to win, and soon everything begins to spiral out of control. Despite the friction, Gordon asks Sarah to drive a prototype he's developed. Gordon has big plans, and he and Sarah do not get along. Meanwhile, Sarah is the apple of her father's eye, but things change when he hires Gordon Devine. Although they are only good friends, she fantasizes that one day she'll outrace him and he'll magically look at her as the love of his life. Sarah's one concession is her years-long crush on a fellow race-car driver, Craig Keller. Anything female, from makeup to chick flicks, is an anathema to her. She works as a technician in her father's California automotive speed shop, dresses and acts like a guy, and lives for drag racing.

Reviews Sarah Matell isn't a run-of-the-mill romance heroine. Soon she’s torn not only between two men she wants, but between the drag race winner she is and the woman she feels pressured to become. Sarah’s world gets an overhaul when her father hires Gordon. He only has eyes for gorgeous women who are hot in the sack, not grubby tomboys. Winning Craig, the local drag race hero, proves more difficult. Sarah's a whiz at tuning engines and winning races.
