After spending most of her life buried in books and academia despite her NASCAR roots, scientist Kim Murphy is a complete success. But when she stumbles across an old list—”Things To Do Before I Die”—Kim realizes that she hasn’t really lived. Now it’s time for her to tackle the frivolous things in life: “Play hooky.” “Buy a push-up bra.” Next up…find a “jock” to date!
Kim’s unusual mix of beauty, braininess and humor seems tailor-made to get under NASCAR car chief Ward Abraham’s skin—so when she asks him out, Ward can’t refuse. But when he offers to help her out with her “list” (and then some!) Kim is delighted… and terrified that Ward will discover the real reason for her list!

Summary
Teaming Up by Abby Gaines Harlequin NASCAR Library Secrets And Legends Series Book 10 Kim Murphy, adopted daughter of crew chief Hugo Murphy, has a kidney disease and needs a transplant. Unfortunately she has a rare blood type that maybe her mother would be a match, but she took off thirty years ago and never returned. While getting her life in order Kim finds an old list of ten things to do before she dies. What does she have to lose if she’s on her last few laps anyways? More than she ever bargained for. Car Chief Wade Abraham is somewhat intrigued by the beauty who has asked him out. His ego takes a hit when he finds out he was just a jock on her list but her her dad, his boss, wants Wade to find out how sick his daughter really is. So what if he’s using her? Since she’s using him as well. What he doesn’t expect is to actually enjoy his time with her. A secondary story is Isabel Rogers, part owner of Justin’s team, and Clay Mortimer who is the main sponsor of Justin Murphy’s car. Isabel will do almost anything to convince Clay to not pull his sponsorship. There are still several people missing who have been mentioned in this series, Sylvie Ketchum, Isabel’s mother, and Hilton Branch is still on the lamb, too. Sophia Grosso seems to be more accepted by Hugo Murphy and his gang but the feud is still alive and well. The series continues with Terri Whalen from the Branch team in Tailspin. http://justjudysjumbles.blogspot.com/2013/05/harlequin-nascar-library-collection.html
