Blurb

He’s the hot, tattooed bad boy that I traded insults with...and now he wants my help?

Knox Holland is in a jam. After an incredible first year on the pro motocross circuit, he should be on top of the world. Instead, his bad reputation has landed him without a team. He’s untouchable and desperate to turn it around.

Which is how he ends up at my gym asking me to train him. As a college gymnast with two Olympic medals to my name, I know a thing or two about the pressure to succeed. Last season I choked and then injured myself before I could show the world that I’m not a twenty-year-old has-been.

Focused on the future, I can’t afford to get distracted. But I recognize the desperation in Knox’s eyes, and I can’t say no to him, either.

It should have been an easy task, but nothing about Knox is easy. One minute we’re arguing, and the next I’m enjoying his shirtless handstands a little too much.

Falling for him would be a mistake…

Burnout is a sports romance with a cocky bad boy, spice, banter, and a happily ever after.

My Thoughts:

I am always a fan of opposites attract and I loved the idea of a gymnast and a biker! We got to see throughout the story that their sports were not that different as they both required discipline and risk-taking which made a lot of sense to me!

Knox and Avery were a great couple. Despite their differences, they supported each other and cared deeply about the people in their lives. I loved watching them learn to respect each other and the other people in their lives see their obvious attraction before they did.

This story functions as a standalone but it connects to some of Rebecca Jenshak's earlier books. From what I could find Knox's brother is the hero in Tempting the Player. While I could tell there was more insight to be gained from reading the earlier stories I didn't feel like I was missing out on details.

If you like reading about sports and a new adult story I recommend this one! I love reading about sports that are out of the ordinary and this one is that. This was my first Rebecca Jenshak book but I will read more!

🌶️🌶️🌶️ - This story had a handful of open-door scenes that are described in detail.
