My review:

The Bride Wore Coveralls is the first book I have read by Debra Ullrick.  I downloaded it a long time ago because the title caught my attention.

I liked Camara. She is a strong character, although she often struggles with pride. I think she had to be a strong character to put up with all the teasing and ribbing she got by being a woman in a "man's" field. I got tired of ALL the men telling Camara to quit mud bog-racing/being a mechanic and let the men do it. While some of it is teasing, you feel for her as it constantly rubs her wrong.

I liked Chase as well. We get a good look at who he used to be and how Christ has changed him. He is in a difficult place because of his father and is trying hard to do the right thing. I enjoyed seeing his and Camara's friendship grow.

The Bride Wore Coveralls is a quick read, with a unique storyline. I enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone who enjoys a light romance novel. 

★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads): 

Can bitter rivals come to love each other? Fighting deep prejudice against her femininity, her choice of vehicle, and even her heritage, Camara Cole is determined to win the mud-bog racing championship this year. Her biggest competition seems also to be her worst enemy. Chase Lamar has been racing mud-boggers as long as Camara, and he grudgingly admits she's the best driver-mechanic he knows. Their rivalry has been long and bitter. But Chase is a new Christian. As he begins to change, he finds his relationship with Camara changing, too. When Camara's vehicle is sabatoged, she naturally blames Chase, despite a growing attraction. Chase must prove his innocence, but evidence points his way. When the smoke clears and the truth is known, will each be able to extend forgiveness, maybe even love?
