I found this book very easy to read and enjoyable. I love that the FMC and MMC both had sunshine personalities rather than having a grumpy character, it was refreshing to read a book where both characters had a golden retriever personality.
I personally really enjoyed the F1 language, Carly Robyn clearly knows a lot about the sport or has done in depth research which was great compared to other sports romances ive read where the sport wasn’t explored as much as in this novel.
I would have enjoyed a little more tension before the friends became lovers, but that’s just my personal preference, for me I just enjoy quite a bit of tension before characters get together.
I loved the use of playlists and music references in this book and found aspects of it very funny! (Theo was a very funny character and made me giggle a lot!)
I felt as if Theo was alike to Lando Norris, which is why I enjoyed this book so much as Lando is one of my favourite drivers.
Overall this was a fun romance and I can’t wait to read more by this author!
I enjoyed this a lot and it fulfilled my formula 1 sports romance obsession atm. I liked the aspect of his personality changing a bit and how protective and careful he was around Josie. I also really appreciated how Josie had taken a break for herself to work out what she wanted. It was cute!
Also, I wasn't expecting the level of spice at times in this one as I didn't recall there being that level in the other book!
As an F1 fan I really enjoyed the references throughout and definitely felt like it was a well crafted “world”. Even though it was a second book in the series it could easily be read as a stand alone book with no issues. I warmed to both of the characters and definitely felt the couple were a good match. As a Brit, it you can tell that it is written by a North American as some of the references/wordings don’t necessarily make sense for a British or Australian person to say. But I realise that it targeted to an American audience!
Thanks to the publisher and net galley for my ARC
What a thrilling and wild read! Loved watching Josie find her feet, and Theo heal past mistakes, all set against the glamour of the F1 world. Pacey, romantic and passionate - a fun and entertaining book.
This book was a whirlwind binge read!
I loved that it is friends to lovers but with actual plot and three dimensional characters. It isn’t all smut, it’s character development and deals with serious themes well.
Loved these two together, and Theo is definitely *chefs kiss*
Smutty, funny and cute all at the same time - a practically perfect rom com romp.
I loved this! I loved that it didn’t just centre around the racing aspect of formula 1 like some but it actually included all the other aspects such as organising contracts, sponsors and marketing. I loved the couple the whole way through and even though there is a slight break between them I loved that there wasn’t as much miscommunication and they worked together rather than against each other. Definitely a must read if you love formula 1!!
Theo is like a chaotic version of Lando! Meaning that Josie is such a saint!
Thank you penguin and netgalley for an advanced copy. <3

I had an absolute dream reading this book it was funny, sexy and scratched all the parts of my brain I needed it to. I adored Josie and Theo together and it gave me all the feels I needed.
Theo walker the man that you are, some of your lines sir were so sweet, so vulnerable and the chemistry was off the charts.
Josie I just wanted to be her best friend because as someone who makes a lot of playlists it made me smile no end for the countless playlists that were made for each other.
They worked so well and even when they were both wrong and there were times I found myself feeling that I was just looking at them and not being angry with either of them.
And the epilogue was both cute and hilarious. Cannot wait for more in this world.
F1 romance is something that is high at the moment and this one certainly did not disappoint I find myself gravitating more to f1 romances and I repeat it is filling me with so much joy.
Cannot wait to talk about this book when it is released thank you to NetGalley and penguin for allowing me to read this book.

As a huge fan of Formula 1 I was extremely excited to read this book and my goodness was it good! I was literally hooked from the minute I picked this up. The characters where absolutely perfect. I loved all the locations and the story itself was exciting and fun and I really loved it.
