Book Description
The last thing star tight-end Gray Grayson wants to do is drive his agent's daughter's bubblegum pink car. But he needs the wheels and she's studying abroad. Something he explains when she sends him an irate text to let him know exactly how much pain she'll put him in if he crashes her beloved ride. Before he knows it, Ivy Mackenzie has become his texting bud. But then Ivy comes home and everything goes haywire. Because the only thing Gray can think of is being with Ivy. Gray drives Ivy crazy. He's irreverent, sex on a stick, and completely off limits. Because, Ivy has one golden rule: never get involved with one of her father's clients. A rule that's proving harder to keep now that Gray is doing his best to seduce her. Her best friend is fast becoming the most irresistible guy she's ever met.

Book Description
I chose to write this book after seeing so many people wanting to get into hotshot trucking, but not knowing how. When I started I didn't know how either. I see people posting on social media wanting to get into the business and asking the most basic of questions. So many people are starved for information that they suck up all of the bad information with the tiny trickle of good information. These people are not even at the point of asking if they should be a contract carrier or a common carrier (check both boxes, it does not cost extra and some brokers want a contract carrier and others are just fine with a common carrier) they are just asking the most simplest of the simple questions!

When he decided to become a Hotshot, he left behind a world of safety that close friends and family called him crazy to abandon. Gone was his all-consuming career, and his freshly completed bachelor's degree promising a more fulfilling life. He is the first to tell you that university life and college are not necessary for everyone. And it is not for everyone.Mulvaney didn't want that safe life path, and through choosing an alternative, and off-beat route, he proves that anyone can start over at any time. Even you. This book is not just a memoir of him grappling to find his place in the world, of him sharing his life lessons; it's an inspirational message to embrace the suck, to embrace the changes. To discover that you truly can motivate yourself to grow to new heights. Throughout these pages, Mulvaney, aka Mulventure, as some of his Hotshot brothers christened him, hopes to positively impact you to find your own Hotshot path in life-whether you want to reinvigorate your career, relationships, or any area of your life. So You Want to Be a Hotshot? will get you as Fueled Up as Mulvaney was when first learning about the world of wildland firefighting. That passion only increased once he became immersed in the schooling and culture that taught him the Wildland Firefighter Leadership Values of Duty, Respect, and Integrity. These values became his mantra and are continuously instilled into all facets of his businesses, relationships, and lifestyle goals. Heck, he even has them tattooed on his ribs!
