Kissing a complete stranger shouldn’t be a life altering experience, but with him it was. One look into his mischievous hazel eyes and our lips were colliding without a second thought. Now, months later, not only do I know his name, we’ve also become friends. Good friends. The kind of friends that kiss and cuddle together, all night long. The kind of friends that fantasize about being horizontal … horizontal or vertical…and very much naked.
I’d never been attracted to the football playing jocks, but Nick’s different. When he’s not being a professional flirt, he’s undeniably sweet and funny. For every excuse my mind comes up with to keep my distance, my body finds two reasons to give him a chance.
Can he make the final drive into my heart or will I keep him in the friend zone?
DRIVE is a full length standalone novel.

5 MAGNIFICENT stars! Prepare yourself for a sinfully Rom-Com.
“Changing her mind is going to be a lot of fun.”
Holy rabbits! Drive by Jacob Chance is a fantastic and stunning book. I spent a big time reading it. This book mixes two of my favourite addictions: Romance and comedy, a sexy sporty boy and a good-girl. Simply perfect. I couldn’t put it down. I devoured it. There is not greater pleasure than reading Jacob Chance’s books. They are all addictive and sinfully written.
I loved the storyline. The plot could be catalogued as cliché but it isn’t. Here the heroine is a good girl in the skin of a vixen and the male character is spicy as hell. I enjoy the interaction between them. Carter and Nick are perfect for each other.
This book is a piece of heaven on earth. Every element of it are perfectly combined. The plot is addictive, the characters are wonderfully intense and the story is compelling.
The heroine is what women would be if they were men. It’s is hard for her to express her feelings just because of her idiot ex. She was hurt and she has some trusting issues. She lost her way and she needs to find herself again. She is like a scared turtle and a sexy sporty boy, aka Nick, will help her to come outside her shell.
Nick is the kind of man who enjoys life at the fullest like any other young man. He is sweet and so dirty. He knows what his priorities are. He knows what he wants. Meting Carter will change his world. He can’t deny the strong and powerful attraction he feels for her. Carter is not like any other girl. She is more.
I like all about this book. I laugh. I loved Nick’s personality. I highly recommend you this book. Grab it! You won’t be disappointed.

Carter is warned by her sister to stay away from him but she sees the real man under his layers,
I Dare you to try and not be #Nickstracted!!!
This book is very well written and the characters are amazing.
Nick O’Shea is hard to not fall in love with! He is a college football star, a MMA fighter, and a sweetheart when it comes to Carter. His devotion is enough to woo any girl.
Carter is your typical ‘good girl’, until she is cheated on by her fiancé and decides that being a good girl has gotten her no where but heartbroken. The self control she has because of the way hints ended with her ex fiancé is unbelievable.
These two push and pull until the only choice they have left is to fall… and fall they do right into each other’s arms!!
I recommended this book to anyone who likes romance at all even if a sports romcom usually isn’t your cup of tea..
I voluntarily read an ARC for an honest review.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it over and over. Jacob has become my favorite male author. I LOVE his writing style. And his character development gets better and better with each book.
Nick has wormed his way into my heart and taken over Kyle’s place as my favorite BBF of Jacob’s. He’s sexy, sporty and a closet chick-flick aficionado. He’s also generous, romantic and focused, especially when he wants something; and what he wants is Carter.
Carter is – for a lack of a better word – lost. She’s trying to find her way back after catching her sleazy fiance in bed with her former best friend. To say she has trust issues with men would be a gross understatement. Being around Nick helps her get back to the Carter she wants to be. And as hard as she tries to keep Nick an arms length away, he keeps getting closer.
These two are so perfect for each other. They have chemistry from the start, which in my opinion is so important in any relationship. What I love the most about their story is that they were friends long before they became lovers, and the bond between them only became stronger. Drive is the perfect example of a great Rom/Com.
If you want a great love story, one that will have you laughing and make you warm and fuzzy, pick up Drive. You will get #Nickstracted too.
Nick and Carter will grab hold of your heart and have you cheering from the sidelines that these two will get their HEA. When the girl of your dreams comes crashing into your world but has had her heart and trust broken by the man that swore to love her, can you make her realize that sometimes risking your heart again is worth it. Drive is a fantastic romance story that will make you laugh, swoon and at times want to yell at these two. Their story is packed full of heat, steam and enough passion to keep you warm on a cold night. The second book in the Boston Terriers series will have you captivated and leaving you totally satisfied by the end.
Finally got a chance to check out this authors work. I didn’t realize I started with book two but was already captivated by Nick and Carter. I couldn’t step away. Seeing her come out of her shell after her hellish past with her ex and open up to the sexy, charming Nick was awesome. His playfulness made you fall in love with him easily. I can’t wait to read more of these books. I’m sure they are just as good as this one!
I’M DEFINITELY #NICKSTRACTED!
Jacob Chance is quickly becoming a ‘go to’ author for me. I absolutely love his characters. They’re well developed and interesting. His storylines flow effortlessly. His books are extremely well written and intriguing. I loved Drive! You can’t help but fall in love with Nick. He’s funny. He’s hot! He’s sweet. And he’s sexy! What’s not to love? But Carter’s been hurt in the past. She’d given up her dreams for the man she loved only to have her heart crushed with betrayal. Is it possible for one spur of the moment kiss to change her life? Will she be able to overcome the pain of the past and finally give Nick a chance? Will he be able to break through those icy walls that hold her heart captive? This was such a great story! One you don’t want to miss.
Another great story by Jacob Chance. My heart feels full. Jacob is so good at creating relationships that you wish you were in. The men own their feelings and commit. Nick & Carter are such a great couple. Even with what could be considered an awkward start they find their way & their happiness.
I’m really glad that I found out about Jacob Chance. His books are so much fun to read.

What do you get when you have a College Football star and a gorgeous flighty slightly older woman and one random kiss that was hot enough to light up the whole town?
You get Drive a Sports Romance with a splash of Rom Com, it will have you laughing out loud one minute and hot under the collar the next. I was hooked from the prologue and have been eagerly awaiting the rest of this story since I read Punched.
Carter’s life hasn’t turned out quite the way she planned and at her sisters engagement party she makes the most craziest decision she has ever made with a tall, sexy stranger. In a split second she decides it’s now or never so she grabs his hand and drags him somewhere dark and private.
Now as any man will attest, Nick is not one to say no to a pretty girl, in fact he is downright entertained watching the inner turmoil of this crazy beautiful girl waging a war with herself if she will actually follow through. To Nick’s surprise she does and it’s the single most hottest thing that’s ever happened to either of them and as soon as it’s begun it’s over.
Nick is a smooth talker and used to getting what he wants but he has his work cut out for him with Carter. She’s not falling for his charms and unlucky for him she’s also done with Relationships. Can Nick’s sexy cocky smart mouth win him a chance at a round two? You’ll have to one click to see.
I throughly enjoyed the banter and sexual chemistry between these two, you will be hooked from the first page. Jacob did a fantastic job of nailing the emotion of both characters, his books just keep getting better. Get ready to go for a sexy and funny adventure with these two.
What drives our need to change who we are?
If you want to make changes and reset a life that has become Stepford wife, pink and pearls mundane – let’s do something so completely out of character and the opposite to what others and yourself expect. We are motivated by the hurts we experience, but then we reach a point, where enough is enough. Let’s regain control of our life and live out loud – grab onto that attractive guy and see what happens. Expect chemistry and sparks to sizzle and flare bight.
Unfortunately what started out as a not to be repeated chance encounter, comes back full force in the form of Nick O’Shea. Carter – she is attracted to this man who sets her blood on fire like no one else. What’s a girl who’s been sugary sweet for so long supposed to do? Nick has the answers of course. While he has his own decisions to make about life, he always remains pretty clear in his wants and desires.
A beautiful romance that keeps both of these characters on their toes. Jacob has given you a story that is charming, quick witty banter even when their are times you want to grab Carter by the shoulders and say come on girl – get a move on and grab that man, hold on tight.
Nick – god only knows what’s going to pass those sweet lips of his, but it’s sure to contain some hilarity but also such beautiful, sensual seriousness too, especially for Carter, well that’s when he’s not shocking her… 🙂
Like all relationships, they are about growing and learning – not just about themselves, but also the people that surround us impact the relationships. Sometimes – the journey is smooth and at times it’s bumpy which causes our old fears and anxieties to come out.
I was captivated with Jacob’s beautifully written, sexy story. It’s a friendship that is growing into more, feelings change and grow, as confidence is restored. You also have a chance to catch up with Noah and Regan, after all you need friends and family in your corner when it’s needed most. Jacob Chance has written you a beautiful, charming story, After reading quite a few dark stories, it was well worth my time to be surrounded in the romance, joy and light of his book. I know it’s going to be well worth your time to read also.
I was definitely Nickstracted reading Jacob Chance’s Drive. I think it his best so far and that’s saying something. The time and effort put into writing and editing Drive was evident from page 1. There is more in-depth character development, descriptive narrative, and sensually charged repartee between Nick and Carter, who’s chemistry you can nearly hear sizzling while reading, than in his previous offerings.
I wholeheartedly recommend this book. You will come away after reading it with an even higher opinion of Jacob Chance’s talent than you had beforehand.
I’m so glad Nick got his own book. I absolutely adore him. Jacob is my favorite sports ROM-COM writer and this book proves why. This book kept me up all night and made me tired at work but it was worth it. I really love the relationship between Nick and Carter. They are one of my favorite book couples. Drive is an amazing read and will keep you hooked from the start! Great job Jacob.
Enjoyed this book so much, the story flowed so well that I had it read in no time. Nick is sweet, lovable and funny and Carter needed that in her life. I always enjoy reading Jacob Chance books, and Drive is a definite must read.
This book is absolutely fantastic. Nick and Carter have great chemistry together. I enjoy a book that makes me laugh, which I did plenty of. The characters are well written. I even enjoy the secondary characters as well. Would love to read a book about Kennedy. Their journey is awesome. This is one I would reread. The writing and flow of this book is done wonderfully. Highly recommend this book.
I really don’t think that 5 stars is enough for this outstanding friends to lovers Rom-Com sports romance. Drive is by far one of my favorites of all romance genres in 2017. Yes, it is that good. Jacob Chance really delivers an amazing and witty story and you will immediately fall in love with the main characters, Nick and Carter. The author warned us that we would become #Nickstracted and he was not lying. I really love the author’s writing style; his words flow flawlessly from page to page and he has this uncanny ability to draw the reader into the story from the first written word on the page.
If you are looking for the perfect book boyfriend, look no further as Nick O’Shea is the one. He is loyal, funny, romantic in every way and super sexy. Known as the non-commitment funny guy, Nick meets Carter Murphy at his friends engagement party when she drags him, a perfect stranger, down the hallway and plants the most amazing kiss on him. Carter just got out of a bad relationship with her cheating fiancé and is in no mood to celebrate her sister’s engagement. That one kiss leads to one heck of a friendship full of comical banter and a lot of hysterical moments as their friendship slowly turns into so much more.
You will not be disappointed in Drive by Jacob Chance and I strongly suggest you take a chance and 1-click today.
Loved it
I’m #nickstracked This is my favorite book by Jacob so far. Such a great sweet easy read with lots of laughs.
Jacob Chance has once again delivered an entertaining read that will have you hooked from the beginning. You are going to fall in love with these characters and their story to their happy ending.
Carter just got burned by two very important people and she is not looking for a relationship. She is looking for her true self never expecting to run into a whirlwind, named Nick. Nick helps bring out the real her and embraces every part of her. He doesn’t want to change her, there is something about her that he can’t help but to fall for but she isn’t easy to convince. She tries to fight as much as possible but Nick isn’t easy to refuse. He is determined and persistent. There are hurdles they are going to have to jump and they are going to have to learn from their mistakes along the way but their story is one that you are absolutely going to love as well.
I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next Jacob Chance book!! I have yet to be disappointed and this book is no exception.
When I read Penalty, it seemed like Nick was really shallow. In this book you see another side of the guy, I like him more than Brady. You have to give the guy props for not giving up on Carter. He brought life back to her, as she was really lost.
