Marathon runner Claire Jacobs has always dreamed of making it to the Olympics, but she has a habit of getting in her own way. With the help of Nick Fox, a legendary coach known for his unconventional techniques, she prepares for one last shot at her dream. Traumatic memories of her experience with her last coach still haunt Claire, though, and in spite of his reputation she finds it hard to trust Nickβs authority.
The more time he spends with Claire, the more Nick finds himself enchanted by her drive and deep commitment to her fellow runners. But when her self-destructive behavior crosses the line, Nick realizes he has only one option to help the woman he has come to care about so muchβhe will need to give her the first spanking of her life and make sure it is one she will not forget.
Despite his firm discipline, Claire quickly comes to crave Nickβs dominance and direction, and soon he has grown to be much more than just her coach. But when jealousy and misunderstandings threaten to tear the team apart, will she run away as she always has in the past, or can she trust in her newfound love and race toward her goals with an open heart?

Reviewer’s Thoughts
Claire Jacobs is a marathon runner and while she is good at running, she seems to lack the ability to focus. Claire also seems to battle internal demons besides her lack of focus. In addition, her experiences from her last coach still haunt her. Claire is a smart woman who falls for her coach almost upon meeting him.
Nick Fox is a coach that is known for his unconventional techniques. The more time he spends with Claire the more he is taken with her commitment to running and her commitment to those around her as well. Nick slowly gives her discipline increasing it as needed and as closer they get.
The connection between Nick and Claire is intense. The more both Claire and Nick open up to each other the closer they get. I also loved how slowly Nick incorporated discipline into his relationship with Claire in a way that help her achieve her goals.
I found this book well written with a very lifelike plot. The main and secondary characters were interesting and appealing. The ending was somewhat predicable but the book seemed more about how the main characters arrived at the ending than the ending itself. Overall, this was a fascinating book.
